Embark on a fascinating journey from Rome to freely explore the medieval charms of Assisi, the mystical Civita di Bagnoregio, and the historic city of Orvieto.
Leave the hustle and bustle of Rome behind and embark on a scenic bus journey into the green heart of Italy to discover three of the region's most captivating and unique destinations. During the ride, an accompanying guide will provide historical and cultural insights, preparing you to fully enjoy your free time at each stop.
The first visit is Assisi, a serene medieval hilltop town known worldwide as the birthplace of Saint Francis. You can stroll at your own pace through its picturesque cobblestone streets, discover the lively central square, and admire from the outside the impressive basilica and beautiful Romanesque architecture that characterizes the city.
The itinerary continues to the mystical Civita di Bagnoregio, popularly nicknamed the dying city. Dramatically situated on a tufa hill and accessible only via a pedestrian bridge, this village offers a surreal landscape of ancient stone houses and captivating views of the surrounding valleys. Access to this dreamlike enclave is included in the experience.
To conclude the day, you will arrive at the majestic Orvieto, a city erected on a towering volcanic cliff. You will have free time to admire the intricate Gothic facade of its famous cathedral, lose yourself among charming local artisan shops, or delight in tasting the excellent regional wine and typical Umbrian gastronomy before starting the relaxing journey back to the Italian capital.
