Wake at Caffe Torino on Via Pietro Micca for espresso and cornetto. Spend late morning browsing independent bookshops and design studios around Parco del Valentino's northern edge. Lunch at a student trattoria, then visit Museo Egizio (nearby, world-class). Sunset aperitivo at a wine bar on Via Accademia delle Scienze, dinner at a family-run pasta spot, close with digestivo at a local enoteca.

Start with espresso at Caffè Al Bicerin on Piazza Castello, wander Roman street layouts through Via Garibaldi and Via Po, lunch at a traditional osteria, afternoon museum visit to Palazzo Madama or the Egyptian Museum, then aperitivo with spritz and snacks at a local bar before dinner at a hole-in-wall trattoria and late drinks in medieval piazzas.

Start with coffee at a neighbourhood bar on Via Baltea, wander the graffitied streets and vintage shops around Via Buniva. Lunch at a small trattoria near Piazza Borgo Dora, then explore the gritty authenticity on foot. By evening, grab aperitivo at a standing-room bar, then move to dinner at a hole-in-the-wall restaurant where locals eat.
