Is Turin safe for solo female travelers?

Turin generally boasts of a relatively safe environment for solo female travelers. Though it is always wise to exert caution and adhere to basic safety procedures, instances of serious criminal activities are unusual. It is a wonderfully modern city with a rich history and friendly locals. Just ensure to avoid deserted places late at night and be aware of your surroundings.

Loved Turin, loved the castle and the gardens easily one of the most interesting places I have ever visited. The transport was easy to figure out and the people are nice. Alba, a small town not far from it is absolutely gorgeous, full of vineyards and good wine (Borolo).

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...

It’s like a normal big city. The re are places with more criminality but unless you go there on purpose you can stay easy. Difficult places: Barriera di Milano, Aurora, Borgo Vittoria, Porta Palazzo (evening ok and cute but not too late), and of course the train stations (there is always people and it’s not so frequent criminality but it’s a suggestion for all cities)

It is relatively safe compared to other european and Italian cities however you do have to avoid some neighborhoods such as some parts close to the center porta nouva and touristic places however if you are careful its totally okay!

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

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!
