PITIGLIANO -  medieval hilltop town

Pitigliano is a spellbinding ancient town dramatically located on a promontory and comprised of irregular tuffaceous stone buildings stacked one on top of one another giving the appearance of rising from a rocky cliff.  Dominating the steep valleys grooved by three rivers, Pitigliano is truly a sight to behold.

Pitigliano’s extensive heritage is a source of pride for the locals. Remains of its prehistoric establishment are evident in the tombs and caves along its city wall. The town’s current name evolved from its Ancient Roman name, Petilia Gens, derived from the names of the settlement’s alleged founders:  Petilio and Celiano.

The centuries-old medieval stone houses, attractive small squares, and narrow pedestrian-friendly winding lanes wide enough for the passage of carts will carry you back into the fascinating medieval era of powerful lords, dukes, and counts who ruled this town and walked along these same streets. 

Following your visit and lunch in Pitigliano, you will join your driver for a short drive to Sovana where you will enjoy a brief stop at this tiny village.

SOVANA  - Charming Medieval Village

Sovana is a delightful boutique tuffaceous village comprised of butterscotch medieval stone buildings and terracotta brick pavement laid out in the traditional herringbone pattern.

Sovana’s charming Piazza del Pretorio is considered among Italy’s top 100 most beautiful squares boasting the 8th-century church of Santa Maria, the picturesque Palazzetto dell’Archivio, the Loggia del Capitano, and Palazzo del Pretorio.

Following your visit to this charming village, you will once again join your driver at 3:00 PM  for a relaxing drive through the Tuscan countryside back to your cruise ship in Civitavecchia, with an estimated arrival at approximately 5:00 PM.

Thank you for booking our Pitigliano and Sovana Tuscany excursion from Civitavecchia and for choosing Stefano’s RomeCabs for your Italy private excursions.  We look forward to seeing you in Italy soon!
