Tour - I borghi delle due valli

Arrival in Umbria scheduled after lunch, accommodation in a 3* farmhouse / hotel (area between Foligno and Perugia depending on availability at the time of confirmation). In the afternoon, we recommend a visit to Spello on your own.

The Porta Consolare marks the entrance to Spello or, as Julius Caesar called it, the Splendidissima Colonia Julia, an enchanting village of Roman origin, listed among the most beautiful villages in Italy, thanks to its rich environmental, cultural and artistic heritage. Spello still preserves traces of its historical past with its ancient walls and Properzio Towers protecting Porta Venere, another access point to the town. The church of Santa Maria Maggiore can be reached by strolling through charming alleys and ancient streets, along which flowered balconies overlook the town and which, with the passage of time, have become true symbols of the town, and still remain one of its most sought-after attractions. The church houses an artistic treasure inside: the Baglioni Chapel, with Deruta majolica floor tiles and frescoes by Pinturicchio. Spello also boasts a rich picture gallery and, just outside the walls, a marvellous museum complex known as the 'Villa Dei Mosaici', which has unearthed 500 square metres of precious mosaics whose central theme is the grape harvest and wine.

Colazione in agriturismo / hotel e check-out. Prima di lasciare la regione, vi suggeriamo la visita di Perugia in autonomia. 

Perugia è il capoluogo umbro che rappresenta molte città in una sola, tutte affascinanti e tutte piene di storia. Fra i tanti monumenti, incredibili opere d’arte, resti etruschi e il verde della campagna, il simbolo di Perugia per antonomasia è probabilmente la Fontana Maggiore con le sue vasche marmoree decorate da bassorilievi scolpiti. C’è poi l’arco etrusco, enorme porta di accesso all’antica Perusia con blocchi in travertino. Tra gli edifici da ammirare vi è poi il Palazzo dei Priori (oggi sede del Municipio), il palazzo del Capitano del Popolo o di Giustizia, il palazzo della vecchia Università, palazzo degli Oddi Marini Clarelli, Palazzo Sorbello, palazzo della Penna, nonché la Rocca Paolina.
