PITIGLIANO & SOVANA - GUIDED WALKING TOURS WITH LOCAL GUIDES

CLASSICAL TOUR: Thanks to the beauty of his Romanesque cathedral, the medieval palaces and the ancient fortress, Sovana was included in the list of the most charming villages in Italy. Here time seems to have come to a stand still right in its most flourishing period. Nearby, in the Parco della Civiltà del Tufo, are the fascinating "Vie Cave", ancient roads excavated in the rock, and the Etruscan necropolis, among them the famous tomb Ildebranda and the tomb of the siren. 9 km from Sovana lies Pitigliano, an ancient medieval town perched on a tufa spur used already by the Etruscans. Pitigliano is also known as "little Jerusalem" for its Jewish ghetto and the synagogue.
