Umbria’s licensed tourist guides are all members of the G.A.I.A. (Guide, Accompagnatori, Interpreti Turistici Associati) tourist guides and interpreters association. Many speak several languages fluently and are both highly experienced and qualified, frequently specialised in certain fields such as history, art history, archaeology, religious tourism. These people are here to provide you with that added value and knowledge of the churches, sanctuaries, museums and sights of Umbria.
