Umbria holidays offer a peaceful escape into Italy’s green heart, where rolling hills, medieval towns and culinary traditions remain delightfully untouched. Unlike its coastal neighbours, Umbria has no shoreline, but its charm runs deep through its landscapes and hilltop towns.
Visit Assisi’s magnificent basilica or explore Perugia’s lively culture, frescoes and annual chocolate festival. Orvieto impresses with Gothic grandeur, while Todi and the flower-strewn Monti Sibillini mountains provide quiet, authentic experiences.
Umbria is a paradise for food lovers – truffles, cured meats, local wines and cheeses dominate the menus. Add in mysterious light, artistic heritage and timeless villages, and Umbria holidays feel like stepping into a secret side of Italy.
