DAY 2
After the Olympic Games that took place in Turin
in 2006 “flying” became popular; thanks to special
equipment it is possible to experience flying – so
in the morning you will reach the outskirts of
Turin and after a security briefing you will rise up
in the air, thanks to the air tunnel that will lift you
up (the necessary equipment will be provided).
After a brief but intense experience, you will
return to the city centre – the area called Lingotto,
once an industrial area.
Today it houses an exhibition centre, a multiplex
and Eataly – the biggest in Italy – a tribute to the
Italian gastronomy, where you can find the best
Italian specialties. Lunch will be organized here –
