My husband and I toured late September of this year. We were picked up with a smile by Maurizio at our accomodations promptly at 9am. He was so friendly and personable! I kept wanting to call him Sly(he looks just like Sylvester Stallone). Having grown up in the region, he had great knowledge of the Assisi area. He took us to two wineries and one olive oil/winery place(three different stops). It was harvest time, so, we were able to walk out in the vineyards and visit with the employees as they were harvesting, by hand I might add. It was GREAT!! Everyone we met was so accomodating and friendly. We had absolutely no problems communicating with anyone. All spoke english very well. After all of the tours, most of which were just us or maybe another couple, we visited Bevagna, and Montefalco. We could not have asked for a better day in Umbria, great weather, great guide, great wine, great olive oil!!
