Answer

𝐐: 𝘿𝙤 𝙬𝙚 𝙣𝙚𝙚𝙙 𝙖 𝙫𝙞𝙨𝙖 𝙩𝙤 𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙫𝙚𝙡 𝙩𝙤 𝙄𝙩𝙖𝙡𝙮? A: In 2024, you do not need a visa. Starting in 2025, U.S. passport holders traveling to Europe will need to apply for authorization through the European Travel Information and Authorization System (ETIAS) before their visit. ETIAS is not a visa in the traditional sense; it only requires a quick online application, with approval delivered via email. In order to receive authorization, visitors must fill out an online form providing details about their basic biographical information, travel plans, and travel history, as well as other security questions. Most applicants will be granted travel authorization within an hour, but if further checks are required, the process could take up to 96 hours. The application costs €7 ( about $8) and is required for all travelers regardless of their age. Once approved, this authorization is valid for multiple entries over the course of three years, or until the traveler’s passport expires.

𝙌: 𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙨𝙤𝙢𝙚 𝙖𝙩𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙘𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 𝙞𝙣 𝙐𝙢𝙗𝙧𝙞𝙖 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙜𝙪𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙨 𝙩𝙤 𝙚𝙣𝙟𝙤𝙮 𝙙𝙪𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙮? A: Umbria has always been one of Italy's most mysterious & off-the-beaten-track regions—quite unlike its famous neighbor, Tuscany. But Umbrian food is just as good, & the atmosphere will often feel even more authentic given its wide array of cultural stimuli, from its widely known Jazz Festival to the incredible art collections scattered across medieval palaces, castles, & fortresses that are bound to take you back to bygone times. Umbria is known for its picturesque landscapes, historic towns, & delicious cuisine. Tourists can explore charming villages, go wine tasting, or visit cultural sites like Assisi & Perugia. The abbey is situated inside the natural park of the Nera River. For a list of things to do in the natural park, you can view this link: https://www.sanpietroinvalle.com/cosa-fare-in-umbria/

Answer

𝙌: 𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙞𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙚𝙨𝙩 𝙖𝙞𝙧𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙛𝙡𝙮 𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙤? A: If you fly directly from the US, the best international airport would be Rome Int'l. At this time, it is too early to purchase tickets. By early January, we will have a good idea of flight prices. We will select 2-3 flight recommendations for this weekend & shuttle services around those arrivals. We will keep track of the flight prices & keep everyone updated on the best rates. The complimentary shuttle loaded with snacks and drinks would take approximately 2 hours to the Abbey. We also encourage everyone to plan their beautiful Italian vacation around our wedding weekend. Please visit the "Travel Guide" page on this website for inspiration!

You most likely need a connected flight to fly to Perugia. This would be a great option to fly into if you are already in Europe or Italy!
