My tour is focused on the past and present beauty of Turin in terms of architecture, art, curious stories and Turin's lifestyle, in the lively late afternoon or under the suggestive lights in the evening. With me you will see the authentic Turin, plus what the Turinese do and where they go after work, especially if we will do the tour in the evening. Turin is also a smart and easy day trip from Milan by train (1 hour journey, fares from €10 one way by "Italo" trains). We'll visit the medieval and Roman district, my favorite, where I have chosen to live and that I know far and wide, with its cobblestone streets and picturesque houses, the market and its hidden gems, the oldest part of Turin and where real people live. With me you'll see a less touristic face of Turin, not easy to discovery on your own or with other guides, far from the usual highlights. With an attention to DETAILS that all tourists miss, but you won't. ;-) - Is it true that Turin people are cold and fake (we have also some qualities at times :-)? - Why is architecture so different in just few blocks? - Did you know that the "aperitivo" ritual was born in Turin? - Have you ever been in an "infernotto"? Don't expect to just walking and listening: get ready to chat, ask questions and discuss Turin's past, present and future, far beyond the surface, on a trip from 2026 to 25 BC. I suggest this tour if you want to understand the city with a NATIVE Art and Cinema historian (with studies also about Preservation of Culture and Art Heritage), born and raised in Turin, who knows many intriguing anecdotes and unique places that you couldn't otherwise find on your own. My style is ironical, informal and interactive: forget about the bored guides with the umbrella and their list of dates memorized by heart, as I want to give 100% of my attention to everyone and want you to deeply understand the city. And by choosing a private tour just for your group/family, you can take advantage of all my knowledge and suggestions and can ask all the questions you want, always at your pace! Also, if you are studying Italian and want to practice with a teacher (me), that's the best way: practicing, sightseeing and making a new Italian friend! Consider me your LOCAL FRIEND, not a guide! I'll share also some anecdotes of my very (at times too much!) Turinese family! To get an idea of why this tour is the most popular and the most imitated in Turin, take a look at the website link in my profile at the (already more than 850) reviews, all positive. At the end of the visit, you will see Turin with different eyes. It is an investment of time and money that makes the difference, not only in my opinion, but also in the first place by those who have done it before you. Consider that even the Turinese themselves book this visit to really get to know the city, in an unprecedented way or even as a gift for family members, friends, ecc. because living in a city is not enough to get to know it thoroughly and more in a curious and intriguing way. In just 2 hours you will see a very significant and authentic part of Turin without worrying about planning where to go, how to access certain more private places, without studying anything about Turin: I did it for you, so you don't have to worry about anything, just to enjoy your visit and learn as much as possible in a relaxed and witty way. I will be at your complete disposal for any question you may have about Turin before, during and even after the tour: what to visit, where to eat, transportation, culture, language, Turin lifestyle, etc. to make your experience as useful as possible (FYI my tour doesn't cover legends, magic, ghosts, etc. and isn't a food tour, but if you want to buy something on the fly we can stop). Since I will also be sharing my tips with you to make the most of the rest of your stay, I suggest you join the tour on your first day so you can avoid the tourist traps and better plan your itineraries. The peculiarities of my tour compared to the other tours: 1) a deep knowledge/focus on art and architecture; 2) humor and conviviality like among friends; 3) lots of curious anecdotes; 4) access to private places away from mass tourism; 5) availability also at night (when the city is at its best); 6) useful informative material before and after the tour; 7) assistance via WhatsApp from 12:00 pm 12:00 am for any advice about your trip to Turin. 8) I have 4 adorable cats that love to be cuddled :-) ∎∎∎ DON'T BOOK IF YOU HAVEN'T WRITTEN TO ME FIRST: day/time must be agreed together (NO calls/SMS, please) and unfortunately we do not receive the notifications of the questions written here on the site. Write to W.App: + 39 33 94 60 48 85 (h 12:00 pm-12:00 am, I'll reply within max 2.5 hours if I'm touring, otherwise within minutes), also and for the best price ;-) - how many people + age - dates and hours you wish ⁕⁕⁕ BEST SCHEDULES for the tour: 3:00 PM / 6:00 PM / 9:00 or 9:30 PM ⁕⁕⁕ Thanks! Ciao! P.S. It is strongly recommended to have internet access before the tour (especially W.app).
