Perugia Day tours
Perugia Wine Experiences
There are two ways to enjoy Umbrian wine with your private group—either in the vineyards just outside Perugia or within the historic center itself.
Evening wine walk through Perugia's medieval streets
Stay within Perugia’s historic center for a wine experience that combines the city’s history with tastings and small bites along the way. You’ll sample a selection of Umbrian wines as you move through the historic center, surrounded by traces of its Etruscan past—where the foundations of Italian winemaking were first laid.
Minimum 4 guests required.
Private wine tasting in the vineyards outside Perugia
Just outside Perugia in the Umbrian countryside you’ll visit small, family-run wineries and taste with the people behind the wines, surrounded by the landscape that shapes them.
Best for groups of 6 or more.
FAQs
Frequently asked questions
We’re here to help you.
What is the difference between the vineyard experience and the Perugia Wine Walk?
Our vineyard experience takes you into the Umbrian countryside to visit family-run wineries, meet the producers and taste wines where they’re made.

If we don’t reach the minimum of 4 guests, the Wine Walk may be canceled and you will receive a full refund.

The Wine Walk is limited to a maximum of 12 guests.
How many wineries will we visit on the vineyard experience?

Can you accommodate food allergies or dietary restrictions?
Vegetarian options and gluten-free pasta are available. Vegan options are limited. Please tell us about any allergies or dietary restrictions before booking so we can confirm what is possible.
Can non-drinkers join a wine experience?
The vineyard experience can still be enjoyable for non-drinkers who want to experience the Umbrian countryside. The Perugia Wine Walk is centered around wine tasting, so it might not be the best choice for guests who don’t drink.
