A true jewel for incentives and meetings
Umbria is similar to Tuscany in look and quality, but less touristy. Place to be for incentives and meetings that are affordable.
Hotels in the region run from Medieval castles, to villas, to recently constructed four and five star properties. Fantastic venues for gala dinners. Activities would certainly include visits to the important artistic cities such as Perugia, Assisi, Gubbio, Todi, Spolet and also, visits to ceramic factories, the famous Perugina (Baci), car rallies, treasure hunts, visits of vineyards and wine tasting and much more.
There are few secrets to Umbrian cooking, other than the native's insistence or obsession, really, on home-grown produce: fresh vegetables and fruit, dense green olive oil, roast meats, poultry and game, pecorino cheese and the herbs, greens and mushrooms that grow spontaneously on wooded hillsides.
Umbria has long been renowned for white wine, thanks mainly to the historical prominence of Orvieto
