Great guide. Very accomodating and informative. Loved her tarot cards and amulet gift. A great look at Turin in the 18th century.

Amanda was lovely. She's very friendly and obviously prepared for the tour. I enjoyed her stories and the itinerary she suggested was well thought out. My 11yo joined us and it was tough for him to sit for an hour. He also struggled understanding her accent, so he really didn't understand the stories. It was also loud in the cafe, so I personally missed about half the stories, too. We enjoyed the walk she prescribed.
Armanda was fantastic! We met at a local church. While sitting in one of the most charming cafes sipping a delicious cappuccino, Armanda shared the history of Turin, the Savoias, and the area with me. She then gave me a map and guidance for a wonderful, historical walking experience. I saw and indulged in areas of the city I never would have seen otherwise: lovely churches, ethereal music, tales of real life figures, and the black/white magic of the area. It was pretty wild. While walking to the home of a woman who had been sanctioned to perform exorcisms by the church (but was an atheist herself!), a large bird swooped down and towards me. Later another bird swooped down right before one of the church sites. For anyone who loves history, adventure, wonderful stories, or likes to experience the unusual— an afternoon with Armanda is a must do!
I recently took the "Turin Between Magic, Mysteries, and Legends" night tour, and it was an unforgettable experience. Exploring the city's key magical landmarks, listening to captivating legends, and delving deeper into Turin's rich history added a unique dimension to my research. This tour was a game-changer for my journey in writing my gothic romance novel set in Turin, with its supernatural backdrop. The insights and atmosphere provided during the tour were invaluable and have significantly enriched my creative process. Highly recommended for anyone interested in the magical and mysterious side of Turin!
Armanda was so nice and very passionate about the subject. The tour was well organized and very informative.
Loved to listen to Armandas story’s! After the tour she also gave me some nice tips for my next days in Torino!
Perfect host! Really interesting stories! I loved the small details of Turin! I would definitely recommend to anyone!
Armanda is an exceptional guide and person to be around with. We simply had an amazing moment with her. I won't spoil anything because it's worth going through the surprises, but Armanda gives a complete story of Torino's mysteries and it makes you feel the city in a really different way after the experience. So overall, really interesting visit, great guide, huge opening vision on Torino. I strongly recommend everybody to take this tour.
We gave this experience to our friend for her birthday and I must say, unique! Fantastic company, loving Armanda who fascinates you with her magical stories about the city of Turin and beyond! I also recommend it as a Turinese, as it gives you a lot more information than the city in which we live and the history behind every street, church, square .. beautiful, you take home an extra cultural baggage and many small hidden gems of the city. Moreover, a day full of coincidences, but this remains a secret lived between us friends and Armanda! Thanks again, on behalf of all four 🤍
I had this experience with two of my friends, we spent a beautiful morning discovering why turin is magical and we visited the narrated points. Great experience
Experience that introduced us to hidden aspects. of the city Guide prepared and methods of the visit appreciated
A simple tale about black and white magic while sipping a soft drink. I was expecting a guided tour discovering some secret of turin
Very nice experience and different from usual. It starts with a chat and then goes independently to discover the magical places of the Roman Quadrilatero. Armanda was really nice and helpful. Recommended!
Armanda was empathetic, professional and engaging! An experience to repeat and definitely do! I was pleasantly surprised by this tour!
A very different itinerary than usual, having already independently visited the places related to Turin magic, I discovered many things that I did not know and mysteries related to magic. The chat at the bar makes you immerse yourself even more in the atmosphere, then the tarot reading is a gem. The only thing I would change is the second hour, it would be nice to discover together the various mysteries slowly so as to have direct contact with the Guide at every point on the map!
Fantastic alternative tour with Armanda who is exceptional, charismatic and conveys all the passion for Turin so magical between sacred and profane, Experience highly recommended
La sua bravura sta nel riuscire a mettere a proprio agio i suoi clienti grazie alla sua simpatia ed infinita disponibilità
We liked Armanda very much, she tells you beautiful stories and her experience is magical. I would do it again and again. My friends had a lot of fun. I recommend Amanda's experience for a minimum of two people, the more you are the more exciting but also relaxing the experience. Not to be missed!
Ho scelto questa attività per me e la mia famiglia perché ero incuriosita da questa esperienza "Torino fra magia, misteri e leggende", diversa dai soliti tour proposti. Devo dire che si è rivelata una esperienza coinvolgente, dall'atmosfera misteriosa e magica e questo grazie alla deliziosa Armanda la "guida" che ci ha illustrato i misteri e le leggende della città.
Esperienza bellissima,grazie ad Armanda abbiamo conosciuto dettagli della città che da sole non avremmo osservato e ascoltato leggende e storie che difficilmente si trovano sui libri. Consiglio di scoprire la città di Torino anche da questo lato....magico.
Una meravigliosa ed inaspettata esperienza con Armanda che ci ha donato conoscenza ed un pomeriggio piacevolissimo a Torino
We were able to visit Turin in the Magic version in the company of Armanda, who said, exquisite person, helpful, competent, manages to capture the attention and transmit the enthusiasm and his knowledge. Despite the incessant rain we were captivated by his tales. Council to everyone!!
We recommend this very special tour, which allows you to learn about some curiosities and at the same time visit some places. Armanda very nice and friendly and good at explaining.
Una chiacchierata su miti e leggende torinesi. Poi una mappa e si va in solitaria a vederne i luoghi ma non vi aspettate luoghi fascinosi o nascosti. Consigliato a chi ha una mattinata da impegnare.
Armanda, visibly passionate about Turin, offers an alternative walk around the city to discover magic, mysteries and legends. For a friend's bachelorette party we opted for this tour a little different from the usual and we were pleasantly impressed. Armanda, guide, storyteller and now also a friend, welcomed us in a room set up specifically for the occasion with tarot cards, stones and candles. Here, between a sip of tea and another, he told us several anecdotes about esoteric Turin and explained the stages of the journey that we would then have to face alone. Once the itinerary was completed independently, we found Armanda in Piazza Castello who greeted us leaving us with a little surprise. In short, I would recommend this experience to everyone, not only for the excellent quality / price ratio, but also for its originality. Cristina
A really interesting tour to discover the mysterious Turin, a side of the city that you do not expect at first sight. The tour offers the opportunity to learn more about the two sides of the city that also allows you to stop for a moment at the history that connect it. Absolutely recommended.
Armanda was very kind throughout the planning of the tour, assisting us and meeting us despite the 3 schedule changes:) Beyond kindness there is much more... person eager to share his knowledge, especially over a nice cup of a hot drink. Very prepared about the stories of all the magicians and / or charlatans who crowded Turin in the 1800s. You'll feel like you're back in that anachronistic time when scientific progress and magical beliefs coexisted. The tour lasts about two hours, can be done by anyone (from children to seniors) and will also make you take a short walk of about 1.2 km, which will definitely not hurt. Super recommended!
I loved the tour, I discovered so many new things about Turin that I never expected. Armanda is very prepared about it, you can see that she puts passion into what she does. I recommend it!
Interesting tour in complete freedom and excellent alternative activity to the usual 'everyday' .. Beautiful legends told by Armanda, narrator so full of enthusiasm that it can not but involve you! We discovered places that we would not have found alone.... I am very happy to have deepened the knowledge of my city with this simple but rich experience!
Great tour. We loved the formula!! Armanda, an exquisite person and in love with her craft, briefed us on everything we would see during the tour along with some goodies that only a few know. All in absolute autonomy and with .... our times. The next time we pass by Turin we will turn again to Armanda for another experience
Exciting experience. Armanda is a competent and prepared person who made me discover a Turin I did not know. A tour full of emotions and fascinating stories. An experience not to be missed.
