Undiscovered Rustic Countryside Charm
Umbria offers a slower pace amid rolling hills, sacred sites, and farm-to-table cuisine, perfect for travellers seeking Italy’s unspoiled interior.
Plan Your DreamUmbria Journey
Why Visit?
Less travelled than Tuscany, Umbria offers a peaceful escape with medieval hill towns, truffle-rich cuisine, and spiritual sites like Assisi and forested Monti Sibillini.
Best Time to Visit
May, June, and September provide sunny days and festival buzz; winter is quieter but authentic—ideal for travellers seeking Italy without the summer bustle.
Getting There & Around
Fly into Rome, Florence or Perugia; major towns are train-accessible, but for remote villages and countryside retreats, private transfers offer comfort and convenience.
Accessibility
Many hilltop towns have steep inclines, limited vehicle access, and cobblestone streets. We work closely with our local team to assist with accessibility needs – contact us to discuss how we can support your journey.
