About this tour
This evening session covers San Salvario's bars, a side of the district its daytime streets never quite show. You see a street that shifts almost entirely into bars and restaurants after dark and a small square where people gather outside on warm evenings. Simone, a longtime resident, compares this livelier evening scene with the calmer daytime district he usually covers.
He walks the bar street as the evening builds, pointing out which spots draw the biggest crowds. He answers questions about the district's evening character throughout.
This suits anyone who wants to see San Salvario's livelier side. It works best booked for the evening, when the district is properly active.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide

Questions about this tour
What will the session cover?
The guide walks through Turin, showing you San Salvario Bar Street and Corner Square Gathering live on camera, plus whatever else you would like to see.
What happens if my connection drops?
Rejoin with the same link within a few minutes and the guide will catch you up on anything you missed.
Can I ask the guide questions during the session, or is it a fixed script?
Anything, any time. Sessions leave room for your own questions throughout, not just at the end.
Is this suitable if I do not drink?
Yes. Say so when you book and the guide will focus on the atmosphere and venues rather than the drinks list.
How it works
