Top Assisi Culinary Tours

While on vacation, it’s sometimes nice to pack in more than one activity per day. This guided tour of a local Perugia winery paired with wine and local food product tasting is comprehensive but takes just a few hours, so you can enjoy yourself and then head to the day’s next adventure. Choose from multiple departure times to suit your schedule and enjoy tastings of wine and local products included.

Discover the wine of Assisi during a tasting session, then finish on a high note with a picnic amid panoramic vineyards. Taking place at the SAIO Assisi “cantina” just outside the city, the 2-person experience starts with an intro to the estate’s wine and continues with a self-guided stroll through their vineyards to a lookout point; postcard-perfect views, a picnic of local produce, and your favorite wine awaits.

Extra-virgin olive oil produced on the hillsides of Umbria is so prized that it is known as “green gold”. With this experience, connect with a local farming family to visit their organic olive estate and explore the world of Umbrian olive oil. Stroll through the groves to see how olive trees have been cultivated for centuries, then learn to recognize premium olive oil with a guided tasting of both oil and wine.

Experience a private truffle hunt with a guide and trained dogs in the Umbrian countryside, searching for the region’s celebrated “Black Diamonds.” Explore the beautiful forests near Assisi with an informative host-hunter, who will teach you how to forage for these precious tubers. Then, enjoy a winery tour and a four-course meal of traditional dishes flavored with the truffles unearthed on your hunt and paired with organic wines.
