Dettaglio offerta - I borghi delle due valli

A walking tour through the historical centre of Orvieto with an explanation of the main monuments, including the famous Duomo (façade rich in marble and bronze sculptures, golden mosaics shimmering in the sun, marble rose window resembling lace), to the evocative and silent Quartiere Medievale. We will enjoy beautiful panoramas and views of the city's most picturesque and lesser-known corners.

In the afternoon, we will move on to Civita di Bagnoregio, once called 'the dying city', but now reborn and visited by tourists from all over the world. It stands on a tufa cliff with a clay base that is eroded by rainwater. Strong earthquakes in past centuries have completely detached it from Bagnoregio, with which it was once united. It can only be reached on foot (in 20'). The residents today number 11, but in the summer the houses, now all renovated, repopulate for the arrival of many holidaymakers and tourists who love the silence and enchanted atmosphere. The surrounding landscape has an exceptional charm: water and wind have sculpted the clays giving them unreal and incredible shapes.
