We had a great time on our tour! The guide shared a lot of interesting history that really brought the house to life. Highly recommend.

The Palace is very beautiful, the guide was very good. The only shame was the poor furnishings and the terrible day which did not allow us to fully enjoy the garden and the views. But otherwise everything was really nice.

Interesting and informative. Very appropriate after the visit to Venaria, especially if accompanied by a very qualified guide, as we are fortunate to have.

Close to Turin, a majestic Savoy residence also called "the little Italian Versailles", during the Napoleonic occupation it was stripped of all its furnishings and transformed into a barracks, then underwent a period of decline and neglect. To date, the villa has been the subject of an important restoration and inside there is a partial reconstruction of the royal environments of the time. After visiting the Royal Palace it is possible to enter the Royal Gardens and, about a kilometer away, also the vast Mandria Park. Of note, the spectacular "Galleria Grande" or "Galleria di Diana", the splendid stables which house some period carriages, and an original Venetian Bucintoro. Outside in the gardens, we can find the impressive "Hercules fountain". For a peaceful visit it takes 4/5 hours, excluding the Mandria Park.

Guida altamente competente simpatica e cordiale ci ha fatto apprezzare il lugo visitato raccontando interessanti dettagli

Fortunatamente la giornata era bellissima , per cui abbiamo potuto godere anche dei suoi meravigliosi giardini . Come tutti i siti che riguardano la storia sabauda , anche Venaria è austera . Gli spazi sono grandi , ma all' epoca la grandezza dei regnanti la si misurava con la grandezza dei loro manieri e Venaria lo è , sopratutto per la sua eleganza. La visita direi che è obbligatoria per chi si reca a Torino.
