Orvieto og Civita di Bagnoregio: Privat hel dagstur fra Rom
Beskrivelse
Halvvejs mellem Lazio og Toscana kan vi finde Orvieto, en lille by i Umbrien. Mens den del af byen på overfladen har ændret sig over tid, er den oprindelige underjordiske struktur forblevet intakt. Den guidede tur i Orvieto Underground er derfor det mest velegnede værktøj til at komme i kontakt med dette meget karakteristiske træk ved byen, ekstremt rig på historie og prale af meget bemærkelsesværdige kunstneriske "juveler". Trin for trin fortæller mystiske og fascinerende ekkoer os om etruskisk tidsalder, mens fantomer fra middelalderen og renæssancetiden dukker op i de fugtige skygger. Den smukke Orvietos katedralfacade er blandt de bedste i verden Med hensyn til dekoration og dens indvendige del, malet af Luca Signorelli. Det var inspirationskilde selv for mestre som Michelangelo. Michelangelo tog faktisk, før han begyndte at male Det Sixtinske Kapel, til Orvieto for at beundre, hvordan Luca Signorelli malede Himlen og Helvede ind i katedralen. (adgangsgebyrer: 7 euro pr. person).

Orvieto er en by og komune i provinsen Terni, sydvestlige Umbrien, Italien beliggende på det flade topmøde af en stor vulkanisk vulkan. Byen stiger dramatisk over de næsten vertikale flader af tuff klipper, der er afsluttet af defensive vægge bygget af samme sten kaldet Tufa.
Civita di Bagnoregio blev grundlagt af etrusker for mere end 2.500 år siden. Civita (eller City) var fødestedet for Saint Bonaventure, der døde i 1274. Placeringen af hans ungdomshus er for længst faldet af klippekanten. Ved det 16. århundrede begyndte Civita di Bagnoregio at falde og blev formørket af sin tidligere forstad Bagnoregio. I slutningen af 1700-tallet blev biskoppen og den kommunale regering tvunget til at flytte til Bagnoregio på grund af et stort jordskælv, der fremskyndede byens gamle tilbagegang. På det tidspunkt var området en del af de pavelige stater. I det 19. århundrede blev Civita di Bagnoregios placering til en ø, og tempoet i erosionen blev hurtigere, da lerlaget under stenen blev nået i det område, hvor dagens bro ligger. Bagnoregio fortsætter som en lille, men velstående by, mens den ældre side blev kendt på italiensk som La città che muore ("The Dying Town"). Civita di Bagnoregio har kun for nylig oplevet en turistopvækst.

A fantastic trip. The driver was pleasant and professional. He provided great service. The guide was knowledgeable and easy to understand. The locations were amazing. I highly recommend this tour.
The scenery is very beautiful, the whole journey is comfortable and comfortable, the time and itinerary are well coordinated, the driver and tour guide are experienced, and the driving is safe. If you need private space and comfortable travel, this itinerary is definitely a good choice
We did 7 tours with AIM Limo. Hard pressed to choose the best one. Each was a unique opportunity to be immersed in Italian culture. The scenery, food, information on each area was unbelievable. Alessandro and Evano were wonderful to work with. They arrived early each day to get us and never made us feel rushed. They were very knowledgeable about each area we visited. We also used them for our airport transfers. I would highly recommend them for touring around Rome…the Vatican, Colosseum, etc….but you must schedule a day trip with them “off the beaten path”. Their prices are reasonable and the experience extraordinary!
The suggestion to go to unique destinations and venues, that tourists would never even know about was phenomenal. Thank you Allessandro and Ivano! I especially enjoyed Bangnoreggio; even many Italians have not heard of this medieval and once Etruscan village! I will recommend you to any who come to visit. Grazie Mille!! (Fr.)

It was heavy rain on the way. There was thunder and it kept raining so much that I thought of going back to Rome, but when I arrived, the rain was flip-flopping and clouds were hanging over Civita, like the whole city was floating. It was like a river on three sides, crossing a single bridge hidden in the clouds all the way. It was a fantastic experience. It was sunny on the way back, and I was able to experience a sunny Civita. It's a wonderful place to be. It will definitely be an impressive day.
We spent the day touring with Alessandro, he escorted us on our tour and made some very good recommendations. Would not hesitate to use their tour service again. If you are concerned about the cost, it's worth it. It's way better than a tour bus, I have had that experience on prior vacations. Pick your tour, pay the cost and relax and enjoy Italy. RJD
It's a lovely tour, a city with beautiful landscapes that suddenly appear when you drive around and you can go around slowly without thinking about the people around you.
This was our fourth visit to Rome, so we were ready for some new adventures. We had an incredible day; Livio was prompt and a pleasure. He had great insights, was personable and fun to get to know, and even taught us a few things about agriculture in the area. We had a wonderful day; I would highly recommend this trip, this company, and this driver.
This was simply the most amazing trip. I really enjoyed seeing Civita di Bagnoregio more than anything else I saw in Italy. Admittedly, I had been to Italy once before and seen the big "must sees", so if you haven't been, maybe Civita is not where you want to start, but as a person who loves the road less traveled, this was TOPS - literally. This little city is situated seemingly at the top of the world. Our driver, Davide, was friendly and knowledgeable. His English was very good and he helped me along with my very poor Italian. He had a broad knowledge of the area philosophies, flora and fauna, history, customs, and food- which we talked about at length while he drove. We were free to roam the sites at both stops, so there was not a tour of Civita or Orvieto per se, but just strolling through these marvels was entertainment enough. Wonderful day trip from Rome!
