Our Orvieto & Civita di Bagnoregio tour is a delightful excursion into the beautiful and relaxing countryside of Lazio and Umbria. Tour begin with Orvieto, a town perched high atop a hill and situated above a volcanic plug, which is a volcanic land-form created when magma hardens within a vent on an active volcano. Here, you will have time to explore and enjoy lunch before heading to Civita di Bagnoreggio, a small ancient village that clings to the precipice of the steep hill it sits on, that makes up the surrounding valleys and provides an incredible picturesque view.

What's included in Orvieto and Civita di Bagnoregio (Driver Only/Self Touring)
(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Duomo di Orvieto
The cathedral’s facade contains many of the elements of design that were common to religious construction from the 14th to the 20th century. The construction begun in 1290 and lasted for almost 300 years. During the course of that time, the design evolved from Romanesque to Gothic. Many significant works of art can be found in the cathedral, and a visit to the Chapel of the Madonna di San Brizio is a must-see. It contains frescoes begun by Fra Angelico and finished by Signorelli. The frescoes represent many events in Christianity including the Apocalypse and the Last Judgment. They begin with the Preaching of the Antichrist and continue to the Doomsday and the Resurrection of the Flesh.
Torre del Moro
Enjoy some leisure time to explore the quaint streets and squares in Orvieto, where you can find artistic workshops and craft shops, but also lovely cafes to enjoy a great gelato and watch the people go by.
Pozzo De San Patrizio
Orvieto’s main military weakness was a lack of water, so the Medici Pope Clement VII ordered the well to be dug in case of a military siege. Visitors can walk down the 248 steps to the bottom, although the only thing to see is the water at the bottom of the well.
