This area, endowed with a heritage of Renaissance palaces and villas, manifests its incredible history, art and culture in a fascinating and unspoiled environment. Explore this rich landscape that is characterized by scattered medieval villages perched on tufa-rock cliffs, and enjoy the beaches while cycling through one of the most hidden and unknown parts of Italy. Your trip will end in Orvieto where you will have ample time to browse the numerous ceramic handicraft shops as well as visit its well known Cathedral.
