Full Description

Admire the Stunning Views of Civita di Bagnoregio
Your adventure begins in Civita di Bagnoregio, famously known as "il paese che muore" (the dying town). This ancient village, perched atop a Tufa hill, is only accessible by a footbridge, offering dramatic views of the deep ravine below. The atmosphere is otherworldly, as though you’ve stepped into a living history book, surrounded by a village that has preserved its medieval charm.

Be prepared for a moderate walk, as the village is only accessible by foot, adding to the unique and immersive experience.

Next, you will visit Orvieto, another extraordinary medieval town that boasts over 3,000 years of history. Walking through its ancient streets and passageways, you’ll feel transported to the Middle Ages. The town is full of captivating architecture, including stone staircases and hidden passageways, all offering incredible views of the surrounding landscape. A must-see is the famous St. Patrick’s Well, a 16th-century marvel designed to provide access to water via two spiraling staircases.

This tour is perfect for history lovers and anyone looking to experience the beauty and charm of medieval Italy. Both Civita di Bagnoregio and Orvieto offer a fascinating journey through Italy’s past, creating a day filled with educational discoveries, stunning scenery, and memorable experiences just outside of Rome.

FAQ

What should I wear if I want to visit some religious sites?

If you intend to visit religious sites, please have knees and shoulders covered (both men and women).

Is this tour accessible for people with limited walking abilities?

The itinerary can certainly be customised according to your needs, but please note that some areas may not be accessible with a stroller/wheelchair or for people with limited walking abilities.

Where and how will I find the driver at Civitavecchia port?

Your driver will be waiting for you at the gangway of your cruise ship holding a sign with your name written on it.

What is your back to port policy?

We have a back to port policy of at least 1 hour prior to the last scheduled boarding time for the ship.

What is the difference between a tour guide and a driver-guide?

A tour driver and a tour guide are not the same. When booking a private tour, it is important to understand the difference so you know exactly what you are paying for. A tour guide holds an official license, usually issued by the state or country, and has completed formal studies in the history and culture of the sites you will visit. Guides are permitted to enter historical sites with you and provide detailed explanations. Their services are naturally an additional cost. A tour driver, on the other hand, is not licensed as a guide, has not attended guide school, and is not permitted to enter sites to provide historical commentary. Their services are therefore more economical. Many drivers are very knowledgeable about local history and culture, but they are legally required to provide explanations only while inside the vehicle. Once you are dropped off, they cannot offer historical explanations, as doing so may result in fines issued by the authorities.

What type of vehicle will be provided for large groups?

For groups above 7 passengers, vehicles may vary based on location and availability:

- From Naples, Sorrento, Amalfi, Salerno, Taormina, Catania or Messina: Mercedes Sprinter minibus or multiple luxury minivan

- From Civitavecchia, Livorno or La Spezia: multiple minivan

What type of vehicle will be used for our tour?

We provide services in luxury Mercedes and Volkswagen sedans, minivans or minibuses (depending on availability). For parties of 1-3 guests we normally use a sedan. For parties of 4-8 guests we use minivans. And for parties larger than 8 guests we either use multiple minivans or a minibus (depending upon availability).

Do you offer a discount for booking multiple cruise port tours with your company?
