The Lake Trasimeno area
Ferry Tour
An excursion to the main islands of Lake Trasimeno: Isola Maggiore and Isola Polvese, surrounded by nature, arts and old traditions
The guided tour of Passignano with Cortona Tourist Guide will lead to discover the old Castle built in the Dark Ages, which significantly shows the development of the historic center over the centuries. Indeed, from a little farming village during the Roman times it became a castle that was long disputed between Arezzo, Perugia and Florence.
The guided tour of Passignano will then continue with a visit of the historic center that climbs the hill with its narrow streets, stone houses and breath-taking views of Lake Trasimeno and its islands.
While coming down from the old town, it will be nice to walk along a lovely pedestrian path running along the lakeshore or to sit and have a drink at the tables outside the cafés and restaurants situated at the lakefront.
There are daily ferries linking Passignano and Isola Maggiore, one of the three islands of Lake Trasimeno.
