What to Expect from Orvieto Truffle Hunting Experience

Orvieto, known as “the high and strange city” due to its position perched on a tufa cliff, is a small but wonderful jewel of rock, art and culture, a must-see destination during a tour in Umbria. Here is our itinerary to discover one of the oldest cities in Italy.

Orvieto seems suspended, in its pedestal with sheer walls, in a golden isolation. The artistic heritage of the city culminates in its Cathedral, considered one of the greatest masterpieces of Gothic architecture, it is worth looking calmly at its beautiful façade, a true open-air sculpture museum, the magnificent rose window and finally the interior.
