While you're there you'll have time to visit the gourmet food shops and purchase Umbrian gastronomic delicacies such as wild boar salt-cured meats, truffles and specialty pastas. A delicious lunch in a local trattoria serving Umbrian specialties is a must. This tour is ideal for those looking for a 1-day adventure.
