	Perugia Guided Tour Perugia was among the most important cities of the Etruscans. The town dominates the Tiber Valley from a high, irregular and rough hill: the particular feature of the land has generated a wide variety of urban situations, giving the town a very special aspect.

Day 4 ~ ~ ~

Day 6 ~ ~ ~
	Morning: Bevagna Guided Tour The little walled city of Bevagna is one of the most attractive places of central Umbria, in the plain of the Topino River about 8 km W of Foligno.

	Afternoon: Trevi The town, which enjoys a spectacular view of the surrounding Umbrian countryside, sits above the flood plain of the Clitunno River on the steep lower skirts of Mount Serano. Trevi was originally ensconced in Roman walls and fortifications erected during the 1st Century BC.
