Your English-speaking driver will pick you up directly from your ship to commence your private day trip through the stunning landscape of Umbria, the green heart of Italy.

In just over an hour and a half, you’ll arrive in Orvieto, a remarkable example of Umbria’s well-preserved medieval heritage. Your first stop is the magnificent Cathedral of Orvieto, an architectural gem adorned with breathtaking golden mosaics and gothic details. Don’t miss the opportunity to step inside and admire the incredible artwork, frescoes, and centuries-old decorations.

Next, you’ve secured a spot on a group tour of the Orvieto Underground. Prepare to explore the extensive network of underground tunnels and caves concealed beneath the city—an intricate maze of carved volcanic stone passageways and workshops, some tracing back thousands of years to Etruscan and Roman eras.

Your knowledgeable guide will reveal the rich history and diverse uses of these unique spaces as you uncover the hidden world beneath the city. After your intriguing tour, it’s time to relish a delicious lunch at one of Orvieto’s top trattorias or restaurants, where you’ll savor the local cuisine (lunch cost is not included)

Orvieto is famous for its crisp white wine, pasta with wild boar sauce, and fragrant truffles sourced from the nearby woods.

Following lunch, your driver will take you on a picturesque journey along the country roads until you reach the enchanting town of Civita di Bagnoregio, where time truly stands still. Known for its dramatic erosion, this town offers a striking view as it gradually slips into the surrounding valleys. Only a pedestrian bridge connects this “island” town to the other side of the ravine—there are no cars in this idyllic village. Take advantage of the plentiful photo opportunities and explore this charming town, home to only a handful of permanent residents.
