Orvieto Experience between art and history
Guided excursion and tasting to discover the hidden wonders of the Umbrian city
A city over 3,000 years old that never ceases to amaze: Orvieto allows you to take a journey through time every day, exploring both its part perched on a tuff cliff and its underground part. Together with an expert guide, start from Piazza Duomo and immerse yourself in the historic center, the ancient Velzna of Etruscan foundation, among narrow streets, squares, monuments and little shops. Be enchanted by the magnificence of the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, a masterpiece of Gothic architecture, with frescoes by Beato Angelico and Signorelli. Then venture into the underground city dug into the tuff, listening to the story of the traditions and crafts handed down over the centuries among the mills and quarries. Continue towards the Pozzo della Cava, the oldest in the city, following the traces of the Etruscan, medieval and Renaissance remains. Reemerge to the surface for a tasting of local products and wines: the perfect way to end an enormously fascinating experience on a high note.
