Umbrian Explorer

Independent rail tour of Umbria starting and ending in Rome

Illustration of Umbrian Explorer

The Umbrian Explorer, operated by Railbookers, is an 11-day independent rail journey through central Italy's Umbria region. The trip begins and ends in Rome, with stops in the medieval hill towns of Orvieto, Perugia, and Spoleto in between. Railbookers includes rail travel and hotel accommodation, allowing you to move between cities at your own pace and spend your days wandering narrow cobblestone streets, visiting ancient churches and archaeological sites, and sampling local cuisine. This package suits independent travellers who prefer flexibility over group schedules and want to experience Umbrian culture and countryside without a guide. The region's reputation for medieval architecture, sacred landmarks, and traditional Italian life makes it an accessible introduction to central Italy beyond Rome's crowds.
