Group travel

I went to Turin with my sister for two days, we came by BlaBlaCar (carpooling) and came back by night bus (be careful, the buses station for night are NOT at the train station, we nearly missed our bus because we made the mistake, we had to run for our lives to get to the correct location, we ran for 15 minutes to get there cause buses late at night are not punctual so we could not get a bus to get to our night bus) We slept at a kind of hotel with shared bathroom, it was quite safe and well made, we booked it on booking.com, it was the cheapest we could find that suited us (50€ for two...

Solo travel

Turin is worth a visit for a the weekend and also has some good places for food. You can easily get around by foot as the main attractions are all in the center. Better to buy the entry tickets for museuns in advance as some exhibitions are easily sold out. Also make reservations for restaurants, especially if you do not travel alone as most tables are booked in advance.

There is lots of interesting museums in Turin, you should definitely visit the royal museum and Egypt museum, if you have time the cinema museum is a nice addition and depending on the exhibitions could be really interesting. Don't go more north than Dora river thos its not safe, especially during the night

I feel safe in Turin. I was with Freire and we enjoy a few nights out. There’s no pickpocket as Rome or other big cities. The food was great and so cheap! You just try all kinds of pizza. Also for a cinema lover you must go to the Molle Antonella is heaven!

There are streets to avoid in San Salvario and Barriera di Milano because of high level of drugs. Otherwise still in that neighborhoods is a lot of art to see and if you need some advice I can help you

In the city centre, the city is pretty safe, just look out for pickpockets or creeps like in any other city. Overall the feeling is pretty welcoming and people will help a struggling tourist. In the less close areas, it might be a bit more dangerous, especially at night and as a woman, but if you don't go around alone, you'll be fine

Turin is a safe city as long as you know where to hang out! The center is perfectly fine even at nights. There are so many university students in the city so they are the ones around mostly! Just keep an eye on your phone in crowded places.

I live in Turin and I can assure Turin is safe in these neighborhoods: Centre, San Salvario, Vanchiglia, Santa Giulia, Quadrilatero. There is a lot of night life so a lot of people are present. But be cautious in San Salvario: avoid the "Portici" near the porta nuova train station and choose the streets with a lot of bars, try not to walk alone in San Salvario isolated streets where there aren't any bars open, you could find some drug dealers, usually nothing happens and they ignore you, but some catcalling might happen.

Hi, I'm Vevve! I'm a 23yo open-minded girl from Italy (Piemonte) and a nerd who likes anime and all sort of fandom stuff (books, TV series, animated shows, ao3 fanfictions, and so on). I love writing, growing plants, taking care of animals, staying at home to draw and getting lost in my own world, travelling, learning languages and eat sweet things! I would love to make safe friends and hopefully travel the world through mutual exchanges!
