Our fall Umbria itinerary is a fun and immersive trip of discovery that will open your eyes to the region some are calling the “new Tuscany”. Starting in charming Orvieto, we continue to the heart of the region to discover its famous hill towns and Medieval cities. Along the way we visit family vineyards, some of the prettiest towns in Italy, and enjoy gastronomic experiences in the beautiful changing colors of Umbria in fall.
Our group trips are small and intimate. With a maximum of 10 guests on tour, we can reach smaller towns and enjoy more personal experiences than is possible with larger groups.
Leading your adventure through Umbria, your host Olivia is an Australian woman living in Rome, who has a huge love for the land of la dolce vita, cooking, food and wine. She has spent the last few years learning Italian (not to mention some Piemontese dialect!), immersing herself in the culture, and working on organic farms, wineries and agriturismi across Italy.

Truffles are found in abundance in Umbria throughout the year, though you wouldn't know it. Umbria keeps a low profile compared to other celebrated regions in Italy but its delicacies are no less delicious. We're taking you on a hunt for truffles and a walk through the hills to learn about the special rituals and routines of the truffle hunter and their dogs. Of course, we'll be tasting our finds too!
Umbria is a region of peaks and valleys where hilltop towns preside over ancient olive groves and vineyards. We visit several of these picturesque hamlets on tour, each with its own character and sweeping views
Rustic delights await your tastebuds in the region of Umbria. Known all over Italy for cured meat, porchetta and truffles, the verdant plains of the region are the source of some of Italy's most delicious produce. Local wines Orvieto and Sagrantino are the perfect accompaniment to Umbrian dishes.
Beautiful Medieval Assisi has a long and fascinating past, thanks to its most celebrated resident St Francis. The home of patron saint patron saint of animals and environment has attracted pilgrims for centuries who came to pay their respects at the basilicas built in his honor. No trip to Umbria would be complete without a visit and wander around Assisi.
We think the best souvenirs are skills you can take home and share with family and friends. Making (and eating) pasta is one of life great pleasures and you'll learn how to make a delicious local pasta dish in the Umbrian countryside. Perfetto!
