For many, even Italians, Umbria Region is not so famous like Tuscany region, however, Umbria like Tuscany is a great please to visit and one of its main strength is its less popularity if compared to close Tuscany. Why I say so, sometimes massive tourism, can modify styles and create difficulties of access to places, of course this may be the case, especially if you go to Assisi to visit but this is a “normal case” if you would like to visit a world known place that nobody can’t miss at least once in its life, as to say the little hassle is a little tribute comparing to what you are going to get.
Umbria region it is indeed not only Assisi, other very characteristic cities are wonderful, Perugia, Gubbio, Casentino are surely to be visited, and that is mainly for the Artistic aspect of this small Italian region. Interesting and probably less expected is the fact that you can experience also with quite exciting sport activities, from trekking to paragliding, but yet kayaking, drafting or even make excursions by donkeys, you will discover a face of Umbria that not many have before.
What about wine tours? Well almost all Italy is the land of wine, and Umbria is not exception great wines, probably above all the Sagrantino in Montefalco, but do not forget that famous Cervaro della Sala or the excellent Muffato della Sala both are from this great little region of Italy, so you can experience wine tours and if you are looking for more deep information visit 2Be in Umbria – Tours, Accommodation and sport activities.
