Umbria is the green heart of Italy. Away from major highways, it is a region blessed with a gentle pastoral countryside, peaceful hills and high mountains. Touring around its narrow winding roads is a feast for the eyes.
But Umbria offers even more than just natural beauty. From Giotto's frescoes to the many Romanesque churches, Umbria is the land where the artistic renaissance of Italy began.
Umbra is also the region with the highest concentration of monasteries and abbeys, places where religion and culutre met in astonishing natural settings.
Our tour focuses on the exploration of the natural beauties and the artistic and cultural life of Umbria. Each day we take you to visit a combination of famous towns, little known villages and remote abbeys.
And the food?! Umbria's local delicacies match the fame of more renowned regions. From the variety of olive oils to the unique dry cured prosciutto of Norcia, from the mouth watering sheep cheeses to the exquisite and rare black truffles. Umbria's cuisine is second to none.
Join us as we uncover cultural delights such as these and more in the charming country towns of Umbria.
