A guided tour of Terni is the best option to experience the real soul of the second largest Umbrian city.
Terni is mostly known for the nearby Marmore Waterfalls, the highest in Europe (165 metres).
Other people know Terni for being St Valentine’s birthplace, the saint of lovers.
Only a few are aware that Terni is a very ancient city, with so much history all around.
