UNUSUaL and hidden Turin for curious people
My tour is focused on the past and present beauty of Turin: its architecture, curious stories, society, lifestyle.
- Why is architecture so different in just few blocks?
- Is it true that natives are cold and fake?
We'll be at my favorite area, the Medieval/Roman district, with its picturesque narrow streets, the market and its hidden treasures and where real people live (me too!).
I suggest this tour if you want to understand the city with a NATIVE Art historian who knows many intriguing anecdotes about a less touristic face of Turin, with unique places that you couldn't otherwise find on your own or with other guides, far from the usual highlights. With a focus on the DETAILS that all tourists miss but you won't!
My style's ironical, informal, interactive. Forget about the bored guides with umbrella, long lists of dates, as I want to give 100% of my attention to everyone and want you to deeply understand the city.
Consider me your LOCAL witty FRIEND, not a guide! I'll share also some anecdotes of my (too much) Turinese family!

Food Tasting and Story Tour Hidden Gems of Turin
I will take my guests on a big Local Food Tasting and Story Tour that highlights Turin’s most hidden gems.
Instead of following the classic tourist trails, I will take my guests to a local Food market where they will taste a world famous Piedmontese specialty and I will tell them the special story of Turin’s food markets.
We will proceed and discover a very “Royal” food at one of the four best bakeries of Turin after which we will have full breakfast and an extensive coffee tasting at the (officially) Best Coffee Bar of the whole of Piedmont.
All along the way, I will help my guests to discover the hidden gems of Turin and I will take them to two very special little shops ran by two of the most passionate and creative artisans of Turin. My guests can tell me before the tour what they are most interested in a part from food, and I will adapt my tour to bring them to the special gems that will be most to their taste.
After our two shop visits, we will treat ourselves to a nice glass of wine with some cheese and salami and discover a new part of Italy…
To end our tour in beauty we will do a last tasting of something sweet. Either we taste some of the most special chocolate of Turin while I tell my guests all about Turin’s fascinating chocolate history. Either we go for an extensive ice cream tasting at an award winning gelato shop. Temperature will decide…

La mia Città Invisibile
LA MIA CITTÀ INVISIBILE – Passeggiata/spettacolo.
Un tour intimo, serale, nel Centro di Torino, con La Lettrice Vis à Vis. Incrociando memorie personali, evocazioni, curiosità e pagine letterarie inaspettate, ti propongo una passeggiata letteraria inconsueta, con momenti performativi. Un punto di vista unico su un paesaggio noto.
Scoprirai con me cosa si nasconda sotto la superficie, cosa accada quando le strade si svuotano e le pietre parlano.
Evocherò per te il grande brulicare di vita che non ti aspetti, molta letteratura e nutrita aneddotica di un’Artista di Strada cresciuta in queste Piazze.
Durante la passeggiata, della durata di circa 2h30, percorreremo il Centro Storico di Torino da Piazza San Carlo, attraverso le altre Piazze Auliche, il Quadrilatero e Porta Palazzo. Storie e pagine letterarie, qualche chilometro di chiacchiere, con un particolare riguardo all'Arte di Strada.
Scambieremo idee e pensieri, ricordi e punti di vista, così che, alla fine, possa sentire questa Città un po’ più tua, e me un po’ più tua amica.
Il lavoro che conduco da oltre 10 anni: usare la Letteratura come forma di relazione, per vedere meglio… ciò che già c’è
L'itinerario può essere ridotto o ampliato, in caso di necessità o meteo avverso.

CONTACT US FOR PRIVATE EXPERIENCE
Do Eat Better Experience tours are a mix of high-quality gastronomy as a way for showing Italian culture and lifestyle and a walking experience together with a local friend.
You'll be guided by a "Foodie", a local "buddy" able to explain every detail of the selected restaurants, their preparations, and the relevant curiosities.
We accept only small groups because we want to focus on a genuine exchange and give each person the highest attention possible.
PRiVATE tour of UNUSUaL and hidden Turin for curious people
By choosing a private tour, you can take advantage of all my knowledge, suggestions and ask anything, always at your pace. Also, if you're studying Italian and want to practise with a teacher (me), that's the best way: practising, sightseeing and making a new LOCAL friend, not just a guide!
My tour's focused on the past and present beauty of Turin, its architecture, art, curious stories, lifestyle.
We'll be at my favorite area, the Medieval/Roman district, with its picturesque narrow streets, the market and its hidden treasures, the oldest part of Turin, where real people live.
- Why is the architecture so different in few blocks?
- Is it true that natives are cold and fake?
I suggest this tour if you really want to understand the city with a NATIVE Art historian who knows many intriguing anecdotes and if you want to see a less touristic face of Turin, with unique places that you couldn't otherwise find with other guides, far from the usual highlights. With a focus on the DETAILS that all tourists miss, but you won't ;-)
My style's ironical, informal, interactive: forget about the bored guides with their long list of dates.
