Practical tips
Before choosing a pricier mode of transport, check the real gap in journey time and fare in the table on this page. For an Alpine crossing like this one, the bus is often the best value for money.
Don't rely on the city name alone: read the departure address on your e-ticket. A stop other than the usual bus station is possible, so it's better to know the day before.
The lowest fares go first, especially on weekends, school holidays and during the ski season. Book as soon as your dates are set to lock in the best price and the seat you want.
Carry a valid ID card or passport in your hand luggage, not in the hold. Checks can happen at the border, and being prepared avoids stress and delays.
If you continue your journey from Turin, don't schedule a tight connection. Delays are always possible on mountain roads. Allow a comfortable buffer and note the last departure of the day.

How long to visit Turin (Italy)?
Plan 2 to 3 days in Turin: spend day one on the baroque centre (Piazza Castello, Palazzo Reale, Mole Antonelliana) and the Egyptian Museum, day two on the Valentino park, the Venaria Reale or the Lingotto, and a third on the hills or a Piedmont day trip. With only 1 day, focus on the Egyptian Museum (book online) and the Mole. Try a bicerin and an aperitivo in the historic cafés, and use trams and the metro rather than a car, as the central ZTL zone is restricted.
