Why walk with Quattro Passi in Tuscany and Umbria?

Guided Walking Holiday: Our 7 night guided walking holiday uses a single base, Il Granaio, it has a highly regarded restaurant specialising in local dishes with a modern Italian twist. Every day features a walk, mostly in the stunning countryside of the Tuscany-Umbria border area, although often beginning and ending in small towns. There are also walks around the historic cities of Perugia and Cortona with an insight into their cultural and artistic heritage and a visit to medieval Gubbio. A vineyard tour and gourmet meals are part of our week's events. All meals and transport during the week are included in the price.
