A
chance to spend a delightful day
out of Rome, to visit Umbria, one
of the most picturesque regions
of Italy, rich in vineyards,
olive trees and the valley. The
route is dotted with charming
medieval towns such as Spoleto,
Trevi, Foligno, Spello and most
famous of all Assisi. The mystic
town of Saint Francis, still
surrounded by the ancient walls,
is built on the green slopes of
Mount Sabasio with its colorful
houses of pink stone. Narrow
streets, flower-decked balconies,
noble palaces, all provide
beautiful views for memorable
pictures - do not forget your
camera-. An interesting visit to
St. Francis's Basilica with its
early renaissance master-pieces
of Giotto and Cimabue and the
Basilica of Santa Maria degli
Angeli. Enjoy browsing in the old
town, shopping in the little
stores and in the artisans
shops... a pleasant lunch in a
restaurant with a typical Umbrian
menu... In the afternoon,
departure for the picturesque
medieval town Orvieto, renowned
for its beautiful Cathedral. Our
tour will end at the hotel in
Rome, at about 8:00pm traffic
permitting.
