About this tour
This evening session covers Quadrilatero Romano, the grid of Roman-era streets now filled with bars and small shops. You see a street still following its original layout and a bar terrace filling up as the aperitivo hour begins. Lorenzo, who has worked behind bars in the district, explains how the tradition of a free snack with an evening drink took hold here.
He walks the grid as the evening builds, pointing out the Roman street pattern even while showing a completely contemporary scene. He answers questions about specific bars and the aperitivo tradition throughout.
This suits anyone who wants to see Turin's evening social life rather than only its daytime sights. It works best booked for the early evening, when the aperitivo hour is properly underway.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide

Questions about this tour
What will the session cover?
The guide walks through Turin, showing you Roman Grid Street and Aperitivo Bar Terrace 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.
