This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Duomo di Orvieto, Piazza del Duomo 26, 05018, Orvieto Italy
One of the most unique structures you will discover upon arriving in Orvieto is its remarkable 14th-century cathedral that is nothing short of a masterpiece with a Gothic facade decorated with bas-reliefs and statues, and stunningly adorned with shimmering mosaics that sets it aglow under the sun’s rays.

Stop At: Torre del Moro, Corso Cavour, 87, 05018, Orvieto Italy

Stop At: Pozzo di San Patrizio, Piazza Edouard Cahen, 05018, Orvieto Italy
An engineering marvel is this double-helix staircase leading down to the bottom of the well so that those going down are not impeded by those going up.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Civita di Bagnoregio, 01022, Bagnoregio Italy
A small ancient village that clings to the precipice of the steep hill it sits on, a small island in an eerie sea of an uninhabitable landscape that makes up the surrounding valleys.
For this reason, views of Civita di Bagnoregio from across the valley are incredibly picturesque. This is also one of the most popular villages featured in postcards from Italy.
Civita is a traffic-free community and can be reached only by a footbridge suspended in the air. Perhaps for this reason, and its complete isolation from the real world, that only about 20 people live here year round.
