What you can expect

The guided tour of Orvieto will make you appreciate a medieval village with its timeless charm, a combination of different styles of the peoples who passed here such as the Etruscans, the Romans and the artistic beauties created by the Papal State. It starts with a visit to historic center dominated by the majestic Cathedral of S. Maria Assunta which we will visit externally, a marvel of Italian Gothic art with a facade that amazes visitors for its architecture, mosaics and sculptures made by different artists. We will talk about its history and legends as we stroll through the characteristic medieval streets among artisan shops and typical Umbrian cuisine products and we arrive at the Moro 's Tower, also known as the Pope's tower, a tall tower visible in all over the town and with the its clock and the two bells is the reference point for Orvieto and tourists.

The tour continues by discovering the Loggia of the Merchants, used by merchants in the past for the sale of their products, and one of the main squares of Orvieto with the Town Hall and the Church of S. Andrea where in the basement we find traces of the Etruscan and Roman times; on one side of the church there is a curious twelve-sided tower, a very characteristic bell tower. The guided tour ends by discovering the Palace of the Capitano del Popolo, now home to a congress center, one of the most beautiful palaces in Orvieto, which was the residence of one of the most important figures of political life in medieval times as a representative of the people.
