Clear comparison

Govone

Province of Cuneo · Piedmont · Italy

Admission and costs
The market along the castle avenue is free, with no reservation required. Santa’s House is a separate ticketed show with a time slot; transport between Asti and Govone is also paid separately.
Getting there
From Asti railway station go to Movicentro, stand 16: on Govone event days a bus runs to Govone, Via Boetti. A single ticket costs €3.80; you can pay cash on board, use the MOEVES app or buy at Giachino sales outlets.
Time to allow
Allow around 3 hours at the destination, excluding travel.
If it rains
Santa’s House takes place inside the Royal Castle as a separately ticketed show with timed booking. It is a planned family alternative, not unrestricted castle access or a free shelter when it rains.
Where to park
Use the industrial-area car park and take the paid shuttle to the village.
