Often overlooked by its more famous neighbor, the region of Umbria in Italy has a lot of the same treats as Tuscany.
But with fewer crowds.
Small towns with cobblestoned lanes.
Rolling green hills dotted with vineyards.
Delicious food and world class wine.
Gorgeous churches with incredible art and architecture.
Plus Umbria is a bit more mountainous so the scenery can be a bit more dramatic.
So if you're looking for a destination in Italy that is a bit different yet feels familiar, put Umbria on your list!
