    We are visiting Gubbio, one of the great, medieval, stone towns of Italy. We're in Umbria and fortunate to be walking with local expert, Isabella, who is going to take us around and show us all of these great sights of this amazing town of Gubbio. It's about 1000 years old but it has origins that go back 3000 years. It's really got a lot of history.
    Most travelers, even if you're very experienced, have never heard of the town of Gubbio in Umbria in Italy. Well we are going to take you there.
    We were lucky to meet Isabella, who is not a professional tour guide. She's a sommelier and journalist, but she's born and raised in Gubbio and very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about her hometown. She's going to take us on a walking tour, ending up with dinner at home with her family. And it was just a great evening with family and friends at home in Gubbio, one of the nicest nights I've ever had in my travels.
    This is an assembled version of several shorter movies previously uploaded.

    How wonderful of that young lady to show you around. I have to say this has happened to me on several occasions in rural Italy - Italians are often very generous with their time and will share their knowledge of their home town (particularly if you have a little Italian).

    Extremely interesting video! I am especially pleased that you recommended visitors to use the bus from Perugia to Gubbio. Most tourists (especially British tourists like me!) hardly ever think of using buses to get BETWEEN towns.

    Thank you for introducing me to Gubbio. I watched this video 3 years ago and added it to our itinerary. Gubbio is a great hub for Umbria. The stone city certainly wins you over at first sight with its medieval charm. We arrived in Gubbio a few days ago and enjoy exploring its labyrinth of alleys, narrow streets, and shops.

    I enjoyed your visit to Gubbio, comparing it to our visit a few years ago. We happened to be there when the crossbowmen were having a match. They set up facing City Hall and with their backs to the great staircase. Their clothing and weapons were an amazing look back to, I suppose, the Rennaissance.

He is always on camera, center of attraction, and develops many personal stories, whereas I am almost always behind the camera, and focus more on the places rather than talking with families in their homes -- except this Gubbio video at Isabella's house for dinner!!
