We are planning about 18 days sometime between late April and mid May of2024 to travel to Northwestern Italy. (In no small part due to what I’ve been reading in posts from this group)We have been to Italy several times, but never to this area. We will most likely be flying to and from Milan. Any thoughts, or help on where to go/stay/eat, what to see would be greatly appreciated.
- We love small towns and villages and good food and wine, and enjoy spending the majority of our days walking/easy hiking and sight seeing . We thought we might start in Turin and then go on (likely South first)from there. We prefer staying in each place for at least three days, which would realistically make for a maximum of four stops plus Turin.
- There are so many little towns and villages in the region and it’s difficult to pick a spot to stay.
- For example: I have read people discussing places like Cuneo, Barolo, La Morra, Alba, Guarene, even Saluzzo, as well as Aosta. And wondering is it finding your accommodation that ultimately helps in the final decision making?
- We were also trying to decide if we would head into Liguria at all or just focus on Piemonte and Aosta Valley region. Believe it or not we have been doing a lot of research but it’s almost like information overload. Interested in any itinerary advice that anyone might offer also interested in wonderful guides you might refer us to as well.
