CCPC CONFERENCE TRAVEL
Turin is well connected to the rest of Italy (and to Europe and the world) by road, train, and air.
BY AIR
Turin city’s airport, Torino Caselle (TRN), is a 30-minute bus ride or a 20-minute train ride from the city center. The airport offers direct flights to almost all major destinations in Europe including London, Paris, Amsterdam, Brussels, Copenhagen, Frankfurt, Munich, Madrid, Moscow, and Istanbul. Click here for a full destination map.
The train from the airport to Turin Porta Susa Station is fast and inexpensive, with departures every 30 minutes.
Buses from the airport run every 30 minutes during the week and every hour on weekends and take you directly to the Porta Susa or Porta Nuova train stations.
Taxis can be found outside the arrivals and are approx. €40 to the city center.
If you cannot find direct flights to Turin, the major international airport Milan Malpensa (MXP) is a good alternative. You can reach Turin from Malpensa airport by direct bus (€22, click here for the schedule) or by train, with a change in Milan (Porta Garibaldi, Centrale, or Cadorna + metro to Garibaldi/Centrale). In both cases, the travel time is about two hours. Tickets can be bought on the spot or booked in advance via Trenitalia. Flying into Milan Linate (LIN) and taking a train to Turin from the Milan Central Station is also doable. However, don’t fly into “Milan” Bergamo Airport (BGY)—you are on the wrong side of Milan and the journey to Turin will be long.
BY TRAIN
High-speed trains operated by Trenitalia connect Turin to Milan (50 minutes), Venice, Bologna (2 hours), Florence, Rome (4 hours), Lyon (3.5 hours) and Paris (5 hours). For international connections, also check the French SNCF and the Swiss SBB. Both of Turin train stations, Porta Susa and Porta Nuova, are in the city center.
BY ROAD
Flixbus serves—like other bus companies—the bus station of Turin, which is close to the Porta Susa train station.
Or you can drive your own car and follow the autostrada. The major connection roads to Turin through the Alps are the Fréjus Tunnel and the Mont Blanc Tunnel (via Valle d’Aosta) from France, and the Great St. Bernard Pass/Tunnel and the Gotthard Tunnel from Switzerland and Germany.
If you drive to Turin, consider parking your car and using public transportation to reach the main parts of town. When driving, pay particular attention to the zones marked as ZTL (Limited Traffic Zone), which correspond to the historic center. These zones are monitored by electronic gates and require previous authorization to enter (your hotel or the garage where you intend to park can provide you with information regarding temporary access to the ZTL zones).
GETTING AROUND
Turin has a well-developed and reliable, but somewhat complex local transportation system run by GTT. Check out the maps at the links below and decide what works for you. From Porta Susa, the best way to reach the Complesso Aldo Moro is tram no. 13 or bus no. 56. From Porta Nuova, the best route is via bus no. 61 or 68. Google Maps gives you all up-to-date connections.

Tickets for local transportation (metro/tram/bus) can be at the omnipresent tabacchi shops (the places where Italians go to buy cigarettes and lottery tickets) or at newsstands. They cost €1.70 per ride and are valid for 100 minutes (transfers permitted). You can also buy daily tickets for €4.
NOTE: you cannot buy tickets on the bus and ticket machines are available only at the metro stations.
In case of bad weather, taxis are an affordable alternative, especially when sharing. (There is no Uber service).
