HOW TO REACH VILLA GUALINO BY CAR

If you arrive from Milano, follow the directions towards the city centre until you reach Corso Vittorio Emanuele II. Then drive along Corso Vittorio Emanuele II heading towards the Po river. Cross the river and drive on into Corso Fiume (the new name of Corso Vittorio Emanuele II, on the other side of the Po), slightly uphill. You reach Piazza Crimea at the end of Corso Fiume, keep the right, and turn right at the first traffic light, and then follow the directions (on your left) for Villa Gualino. If you arrive from Savona or from the Brescia-Piacenza motorway, take the "Corso Unità d’Italia" exit out of the circular road. Then drive along for some 5 kilometers until Corso Unità d'’Italia changes its name several times and it eventually becomes Corso Massimo D'Azeglio. Drive on until Corso Massimo D'Azeglio ends in Corso Vittorio Emanuele II. Turn right into Corso Vittorio Emanuele II, cross the river and then follow the same directions as above.

BY BUS, FROM THE CITY CENTRE

Take bus no.73 in Piazza Gran Madre, or in Corso Fiume, from where it leaves every hour. Piazza Gran Madre can be reached by buses no. 55 and 56, and trolley no. 13 (the 56 and the 13 buses also stop in front of Porta Susa Railway Station). In order to reach Corso Fiume you can take bus no. 52 (which also stops in front of the main Torino railway station, Porta Nuova), and get off at the first stop after the bridge (when you are in Corso Fiume). Bus tickets cannot be bought on the bus. You can buy them at all newstands and tobacco shops.
If you wish to take a taxi from the city centre, it will take about 15 minutes and it will cost about 10 €.
