This guided tour takes you to ancient Spoleto,
a beautiful Roman town built atop a mountain
on the Flaminia Road. Spoleto boasts
many important Roman structures including its
stone wall, theater and bridge, the town is
also known for its 14th century fortress.
You can enjoy lunch and wine tasting at a
very nice wine bar in Spoleto (price not included),
and explore this charming city and its great
churches, museums and medieval piazzas before
heading to Montefalco.
Montefalco is also known for its fine wines,
sponsoring an annual “Wine Week” every Easter,
and you can stop for a wine tasting here. The
town’s most renowned grape, Sagrantino, produces
a wonderful red wine as well as one of the
best dessert wines in central Italy.
You can also tour some of Montefalco’s beautiful
churches, which cover the Romanesque, Gothic
and Renaissance styles. The beautifully-frescoed
church of San Francesco has been converted
to the town's museum, offering an extensive
collection of art and artifacts from Umbria.
Finally, this tour includes an optional stop
to a cashmere factory outlet.
