Hill towns, medieval art and quiet green valleys.

Umbria is the green heart of Italy: Assisi with the Basilica of St Francis, Perugia’s hilltop old town, Orvieto’s striped cathedral and Spoleto’s festivals. Olive groves, truffles and Sagrantino wine make it a slower, less crowded alternative to Tuscany.
