Viviana did a wonderful job walking us through Orvieta. She was very patient with us, and she increased our knowledge of this stunning palate wich is central Italy. Many thanks Viviana!

Our guide, Pamela, was so knowledgeable and really made it interesting. I didn't realize the Douma played such an important role in the Renaissance. And the Truscan culture to the Romans.

Loved this informative tour or Orvieto — we highly recommend it. Great detail on the Duomo in particular. Recommend going to the effort of climbing up and down the well that was built in 1527. Very knowledgeable tour guide and a lovely town.
