A week in Umbria with Elizabeth & Sophie
June 8-14, 2025
For the last 25 years, I've been lucky enough to divide my time between our apartment in Rome and our home in Umbria. During summers and weekends spent at our villa, I fell in love with this unspoiled corner of Italy. During this 6-day tour, we'll have the time to truly explore the region, from a completely food-centric point of view, of course. From breakfast through dinner, we’ll travel all over Umbria: tasting, drinking, eating, cooking, learning, and having fun.
It’s one of the only tours that Sophie and I host together and is the tour where we get the chance to invite you into our own home. I hope you can make it!
Here is a taste of what we’ll be doing:
Welcome dinner at our villa (there will be cocktails!)
Pizza night in Todi (Truffle pizza anyone?)
Truffle hunt and lunch (cute doggies galore)
A day learning all about olive oil (FYI: they ship)
Farm visit and cooking lesson (Your chance to bond with an Umbrian Nonna)
Winery visit (They also ship)
Visits to Orvieto, Bevagna, Spello, and Deruta (Small towns = no crowds)
Ceramic workshop in Deruta (with shopping of course)
and more…

PS: While we would love it if you could join us in Umbria in June, if you are hoping to head further south we still have some spots left on Sophie’s tour to Palermo and Western Sicily in March.
This sounds amazing
