Of all the Italian regions we visited, when we entered Umbria we understood why this area gave so many saints, why so many hermitages and monasteries were built there, like in no other part of Italy.
Driving along the gentle Umbrian hills is like entering another world that I would define as “ancient”, because you are taking back for centuries. Towns like Assisi, Gubbio, Todi, Orvieto, Spello, Spoleto appear in front of you and you immediately feel the intimacy of these places, full of that spirit that is lacking in other parts of Italy.
Umbria, considered the "poor" cousin of Tuscany, however, retains all the characteristics of this, perhaps presented in a less “flashy” way than those of the neighboring region, but in terms of quality you will not see any difference.
In this tour, which starts in Umbria, based in Perugia, its main city, you will have the opportunity to play the two 18-hole courses (Antognolla and Perugia), but above all to taste their wines, their incomparable extra virgin olive oils and appreciate their food.
After three days in the Umbrian land, you will continue in Tuscany through the wine area of Montepulciano, another great Tuscan wine, where you will spend the last four nights playing two other courses (at your choice) and spending the rest of your time time in visits to wineries, tastings of various types of Chianti. which, depending on the production area, take on different characteristics from each other, and obviously without forgetting the culinary part that will culminate in a market tour on the last day of your stay in Florence
The Full proposal includes 7-night accommodation (3 in Perugia and 4 in Florence), buffet breakfasts, green fees, other services (entrance tickets, guided tours, other food and wine tours, etc.)

Everchanging, untouched landscapes in the green of winding valleys make Umbria a region that will never fail to amaze. This region comprises mainly hills, mountains, hollows and plains and extends along the Tiber’s central basin.
At the heart of the boot, it is the only region with no coastline.
It includes Lake Trasimeno, central Italy’s largest lake. The area still has the remains of Etruscan settlements, particularly around Castiglione del Lago, where the loveliness of the natural landscape combines with the romanticism and stillness of the lake.
Moving on from the two lakes, we come to the Cascate delle Marmore waterfalls near Terni, some of the most beautiful in Europe.
The waters dive into the River Nera with a spectacular 165 m (541 ft) drop, and are surrounded by lush vegetation. This is the spot for sports lovers who enjoy canoeing, kayaking, and not only.
Still in the province of Terni, tourists looking to get the feel of Umbria should not miss out on two little gems: one of them is linked to history and the other to the territory. Carsulae is an ancient Roman town traversed by the ancient Via Flaminia, where important public buildings have been discovered. We can still see the remains of the S. Damiano Arch, with particularly beautiful and fascinating surroundings.
The other gem, closely linked to the area’s makeup is the Dunarobba Fossil Forest, a rare example of a forest that existed 3 million years ago, with very well-preserved tree trunks set in a lunar landscape.
The provinces of the region are Perugia (regional capital) and Terni.
