Avoid restaurants around Piazza Castello, walk 2 blocks side streets for cheaper pasta. Also book Egyptian Museum slots online, lines are long.
Pretty architecture but quieter than I expected, many cafes close midafternoon. Good for slow travel, not nightlife.
Winter visit was chilly and grey but the markets and bicerin coffee made it worth two full days exploring.
Loved Turin, relaxed vibe and great chocolate shops. Easy to walk, museums are classy, 3 days felt perfect but bring a light jacket.
Buy a 24 or 48 hour GTT ticket at the kiosk, it covers trams and buses. Single rides add up fast, validate at machines not on board.
