$Gio\ Patti - Our Guide in Civita Di Bagnoreggio$

Overview

This is a wonderful tour for those who don't want to rush into Rome for the day. The tour takes you, in the comfort of your own private vehicle, to visit 2 wonderful ancient settlements and a lake-side winery before returning you safely to the port for your departure.

Civita di Bagnoreggio is one of Italy's famous 'dying towns', now nearly abandoned due to the slow deterioration of the rock on which it stands. The driver will take you to the edge of the footbridge into the town (there's a small additional fee to cross it) and give you time to explore the small center on your own.

Crossing into Umbria, your next stop will be the wonderful town of Orvieto, a beautiful and secretive town. In the past the pope would escape here when Rome was under siege, but should Orvieto be attacked, what would happen? The ingenious solution was to excavate incredible tunnels through the hill of volcanic rock, making it possible to move around the city unnoticed. You will have time to visit these tunnels, see the Duomo with its incredible facade and unsettling frescoes of the Day of Judgment and taste some of the local DOC wine.

End the day with a visit to a local winery for a wine tasting with a wonderful view of Lake Bolsena before your driver takes you back to the port.

I am a travel agent with All About Honeymoons and I would highly recommend Italy Vacation Specialists.

In August 2018, my family of four and myself travelled from Vancouver, BC to Rome Italy and spent 3 weeks touring Italy with IVS.

This company really knows their stuff and recommended our family to stay longer in each location. We didn't listen to them, but wished we had in every single place we went. They recommended Sestri Levante over the Cinque Terre which was our favourite destination on our entire trip.

We spent three short weeks seeing Piedmont and experiencing wine paradise there, then heading to Nice in France with our private driver and flying to Rome where honestly 4 days is NOT enough. They keep saying to spend more time and we could not agree more! You n… Read More
