As you approach Orvieto, you’ll be struck by the mere sight of it: practically timeless and perched on top of a high stone plateau. Visit the breathtaking Duomo in the heart of the city. Since the 13th century, this beautiful symbol of Orvieto has stood with its ornately decorated exterior completed by sparkling mosaics, Rose Window, and intricately carved reliefs. Inside you’ll be mesmerized by its frescoes and the Baroque statues. After exploring above ground, tour 3,000 years worth of history in Orvieto’s complex system of underground tunnels and caves.
Discover Orvieto’s charming streets by foot. Admire the city’s traditional, colorfully painted ceramics. Pause for lunch and taste the delicious culinary specialties of this area like truffles, local cheeses, salumi, freshly made pasta, and local wines like Orvieto Classico. It’s easy to understand why so many Foodies travel to Orvieto and Umbria specifically!
Near the border of Lazio and Umbria sits one of the most remarkable sites in all of Italy, the 2,500 year old Etruscan town Civita di Bagnoregio. This sleepy town sits high above a canyon like an island in the air. Cross the footbridge and take incredible pictures to share with friends and family back home.
Your day trip finishes back at your hotel in time to enjoy the evening in Rome. This is an unforgettable private tour that ensures you’ll get the absolute best out of your time in this historic region!
