• 5Our tour guide Emmanuela...

  Our tour guide Emmanuela a/k/a Emma was fabulous! She was so engaging and very interesting. She took the time to describe in precise detail the history of the Duomo and significance of the scenes depicted by the architect and the various artists whose work is displayed there. The tour of the caves was fascinating. We learned so much about the Etruscan ingenuity and their craftsmanship. The tour was amazing and I highly recommend it since the information we gained is beyond what one could learn from the available literature.

• 5Great lifelong resident as a guide

  Orvieto and especially the cathedral are must sees. This tour was great. The guide was a lifelong resident and very knowledgeable. We appreciated her very much. The only problem is parking and guidance that the lots are full so you don’t waste so much time having to go back down the hill for a spot. Again our guide was very nice and wonderful.

About Orvieto

Orvieto is a hill town on a cliff of volcanic rock in Umbria, with a mosaic-fronted Gothic cathedral, underground caves and a long winemaking tradition.

Orvieto stands on a flat-topped plug of volcanic tuff, with sheer cliffs around it, above the Paglia valley in southern Umbria. Its cathedral, begun in 1290, has a Gothic façade of gold mosaics and spires, and inside the San Brizio chapel Luca Signorelli painted his vast Last Judgment around the turn of the sixteenth century. The Torre del Moro, a clock tower in the old streets, gives a long view across the roofs.

Top-ranked sights in Orvieto: Orvieto Cathedral (Duomo di Orvieto), St. Patrick’s Well (Pozzo di San Patrizio), Pozzo della Cava.
