  • Indossa calzature pratiche: il tour si svolge interamente a piedi tra le vie del centro di Torino, e camminare con piacere fa parte dell'esperienza.
  • Se sei appassionato di cioccolato, segna gli indirizzi che ti verranno indicati dalla accompagnatore: alcuni laboratori e botteghe storiche di Torino meritano una tour di autonoma per acquisti e approfondimenti.
