Umbria: the green heart of Italy/out of tuscany’s shadow
Tour dates:
October 13-21, 2025
Umbria
Italy
Umbria has long been overshadowed by its famous regional neighbor, Tuscany for years. But it is emerging as a lower-key, less-touristy Italian region on par with the travel opportunities that Tuscany offers. With hilltop towns galore like Perugia, Todi, Gubbio; the UNESCO World Heritage Site city of Assisi that pays homage to Italy’s most famous saint, Francis of Assisi; Orvieto with an underground city as large as the city constructed above; culinary delights like Perugina chocolates and wines to rival those in Tuscany; artisan crafts such as ceramics from Deruta; the largest man-made waterfalls created by the Romans over 2000 years ago; and a tradition of truffle hunting.
Umbria is just waiting to be explored!
