Now that is a nice present for Christmas! If you are planning to stay in your villa in Umbria or southern Tuscany but come from Belgium or Holland, you can from the end of March next year take a Ryanair flight from Brussels to Perugia. The bi-weekly flights will start the 28th of March. Flights from Perugia to Bruxelles will be Monday and Friday with departure at 15.30 and arrival 17.45. From Bruxelles to Perugia you can hop on a flight every Monday and Friday at 12.55 and be in Perugia at 15.05. Don’t ask me why you get to Perugia faster. Don’t believe me? Have a look.
From Bruxelles you can easily get fast trains to Antwerpen, Amsterdam or Paris. For more info on that have a look here!
