THE ROAR OF ITALIAN HERITAGE … MILAN TO TURIN
Announcing an Italian Travel Experience with Italian Ways and Secret Car Club Events :: TO BE DETERMINED
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

DAY 1 :: MILAN

Flight from the United States to Milan. Upon arrival in Milan, transfer by minivan to Hotel NH Milano Touring. Dinner is at Osteria Fornello Contadino… In a big city like Milan they seemed destined to disappear, instead they are more alive than ever: restaurants like in the past where the atmosphere is genuine and home-style Italian, which also reflects offerings from the kitchen.

DAY 2 :: MILAN

Leave for Arese (Milan) to visit the Alfa Romeo Museum. The Alfa Romeo Museum has been completely renovated and is even more prestigious. The historical site in Arese has a new look and is open to the public with a refined arrangement that reflects Alfa Romeo's distinctive DNA. Six floors of history binding past, present and future and complimenting the achievements of an extraordinary brand, its vehicles, its technology and style. Dinner is at Trattoria Arlati — the first time you walk into Trattoria Arlati, you may be caught off guard by the feeling of nostalgia for a faraway past you never lived.

DAY 3 :: MILAN

Visit of the Lopresto Collection. Corrado Lopresto is in the top-50 of most influential people in the collector car world. The sector magazine Magneto, in the Spring 2019 publication dedicated to the 100 years of the historic Zagato body shop, draws up a ranking of the top 50 influencers in the collector's automotive sector. Among the great names of people in some way devoted to the preservation and dissemination of the culture of motor racing of the time, is Corrado Lopresto, Milanese architect and entrepreneur, who is the owner of an award-winning collection and an ACI Storico member. Fine dining tonight at Osteria Conchetta.

DAY 4 :: MILAN

Visit the Bertoni Collection at Volandia and meet the team of the great Italian designer Flaminio Bertoni, who will entertain you with stories and anecdotes about Bertoni’s work. OPTIONAL: Shopping in Via Montenapoleone and Via della Spiga. Enjoy dinner at La Brisa, a historical family-owned restaurant in Milan’s city center, just a stone’s throw from the remains of an ancient Roman imperial palace.

DAY 5 :: TURIN

Transfer to Turin by minivan and arrive at NH Centro Hotel. In the afternoon, meet Edgardo Michelotti, son of the great car designer Giovanni Michelotti, and visit his atelier to hear about his personal memories and anecdotes about his father’s career. Visit the historical archive of the Bolaffi Group, an international beacon for Italian collectibles. Dinner is at the Officine Grandi Riparazioni, Snodo Restaurant, an imposing industrial complex built in the late 1800s at the heart of Turin.

DAY 6 :: TURIN

Guided tour of Turin’s National Automobile Museum, including the temporary exhibition dedicated to famous car designer Marcello Gandini.

DAY 7 :: TURIN

Breakfast with Roberto Giolito, Head of FCA Heritage (EMEA). Visit the Officine 82, headquarters of the department that has collected some 300 classic Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Lancia and Abarth cars. Visit Turin’s Royal Museums and a collection of over fifty drawings by Leonardo Da Vinci, illustrating his research between science and art, including the famous Portrait of an Old Man, which is believed to be the artist’s self-portrait.
