A land of rolling hills, verdant countryside, picturesque vineyards and turquoise lakes, Umbria is one of Italy’s most beloved regions. Explore this amazing land from your base of Spoleto, a charming town where ancient ruins mix with stunning medieval architecture, and scenic paths showcase the many highlights. Admire the impressive Palazzo dei Consoli in Gubbio; the magnificent basilicas in Assisi, known as the home of St. Francis; and the churches in Montefalco, renowned for their stunning works of art. Journey to Todi, a town that according to legend was founded by Hercules, and enjoy its unspoiled medieval ambience. Best of all, a cultural event allows you to experience first-hand one of the unique aspects of the local culture.
