Piedmont
Piedmont, in Italy's northwest, is true to the meaning of its name - foot of the mountain. Surrounded by the Alps and the Riviera to the south, it is the historical home of the Savoy family, previous rulers of Italy, who left behind a fabulous legacy of opulent, baroque palaces. Referred to as ‘Tuscany without the tourists,’ Piedmont's magical, flowing landscapes remain one of the region's greatest attractions along with its wine and cuisine.
Highlights
Delectable treasure: Piedmont is home to the world's most prized truffles, including the highly sought-after white truffle.
Chocolate: Turin is the birthplace of Gianduja, a type of chocolate made with hazelnuts.
Rustic and wholesome food: Piedmontese cuisine is known for its hearty, meat-based dishes like bollito misto, brasato al Barolo, and agnolotti.
The foot of the mountains: Piedmont is home to the Italian Alps, including the highest peak in Italy, Monte Bianco.
The "other" Italian car: The city of Turin is the birthplace of the famous Italian car brand, Fiat. The city also has several museums dedicated to Italian car design and engineering.

We just had an amazing trip to France/Spain to celebrate our 10-year wedding anniversary. I want to thank Into the Vineyard as they picked wonderful spots for us to stay along with some amazing adventures.
Brad Janitz -
Hands down, the trip of a lifetime! My husband and I booked a two-week trip to France with Into the Vineyard, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Colin worked closely with us to understand our preferences before the trip and then custom-curated our itinerary based on that. Everywhere we went was absolutely amazing, and the fact all of the research, planning, and booking was done for us alleviated a lot of stress.
Heather Hale -
My Husband & I just returned from a 2 week trip planned by INTO THE VINEYARD. This trip of a lifetime far exceeded our expectations...The properties we stayed at we loved & the guides were welcoming and had so much knowledge that they passed on to us. Thank you to Colin & his team for this unforgettable trip.

This was the second tour my wife and I have arranged through Into The Vineyard, and like the first tour, it delivered everything we had hoped for and more. Yes, a 3-week custom trip with high end accommodations and extensive use of personal guides along the way is expensive, but in our opinion worth the cost as long as it provides the desired experiences. Providing those experiences is what Into The Vineyard excels at.
