Plan Your DreamPiedmont Journey
Why Visit?
A food and wine lover’s dream, Piedmont offers truffle hunts, Barolo & Barbaresco tastings, and a refined, less-touristed atmosphere framed by rolling hills and the Alps.
Best Time to Visit
Autumn is prime for truffle season and harvest festivals; spring sees blooming countryside; some rural areas slow in winter, though cities like Turin remain lively throughout the year.
Getting There & Around
Fly into Turin or Milan, then reach regional towns like Alba or Asti via train; private transfers are best for winery visits and hilltop stays. Self-driving is a good option in the area.
Accessibility
Historic hill towns like Alba and La Morra have uneven stone streets and limited parking near centres. Turin, however, is flat and highly accessible.
Tip: Base in Turin for easier access and do countryside excursions by private driver to minimise walking. We work closely with our local team to assist with accessibility needs – contact us to discuss how we can support your journey.
Booking Considerations
During the autumn truffle and wine season (October–November), hotels and restaurants in Alba and the Langhe book out up to 9 months in advance. Plan early for wine tastings and dining at renowned estates or Michelin-starred spots.
