The Sadem bus runs everyday between the center of Torino (Corso Guglielmo Marconi) and Vinovo (Piazza Rey, at the Castle della Rovere�"SJIU campus). From 5:30 am to 11 pm, buses depart every 10 to 20 minutes (depending of the time of day) and the trip takes about 30 minutes. Tickets cost €1.70 and monthly passes are available for €42.

Once in the historic center, most of the major monuments of Torino can be seen fairly easily on foot. Bicycle is also a popular mode of transportation in the center since the city is flat and traffic is relatively light. However, there are numerous bus, tram and subway lines that connect various sites within the city and also reach larger shopping centers on the outskirts. Tickets can be purchased in tabacchi stores, cafes or GTT (Turin transportation) offices. You must get on board with a valid ticket, punch it in the machine and keep it during the ride and show it, if requested, to the ticket inspectors. A 70-minute ticket costs €0.90 and monthly student passes are available for €18. Click here for route maps and more information in English on Torino’s public transportation system.

The subway “la metropolitana” in Torino has one line which connects the two major train stations of the city with the west end of town. It does not, however, run through the historic center.

While taxis can sometimes be hailed in the city center, it is certainly easier to call by phone and request one. The meter starts approximately at €2-4; there are supplements for night service (10:00pm-7:00am) and on Sundays and holidays as well as for each piece of baggage.

Avoid unmarked or unmetered cabs (numerous at airports and train stations), whose drivers actively solicit your trade and may demand astronomical fares. Use only licensed, metered yellow or white cabs, identified by a numbered shield on the side and an illuminated taxi sign on the roof.

For a taxi call: 011-5730, then give the operator the address where you want to be picked up. Do your best to pronounce the address as clearly as possible. If you stay on the line the operator should give you the name and the number of the car and the estimated arrival time of the car (3 minuti). Then hang up and wait for the taxi to arrive. Note that taxis cannot be reserved in advance.
