What To Expect
Basilica di Santa Chiara
Place of burial of St. Clare preserves the Crucifix of San Damiano that spoke to St. Francis. Even in the days of mob fascinates by its simplicity and mysticism that emanates.

5.00Monia was an exceptional guide and made our morning truly memorable. She combined deep knowledge with genuine warmth, tailoring the tour beautifully to our interests, which included a mix of St. Francis and St. Clare. What stood out most was her patience and kindness toward our six-year-old daughter—something we deeply appreciated. Monia struck the perfect balance between informative and engaging, and her flexibility made the experience feel personal and relaxed. We wholeheartedly recommend her, especially for families. Don’t hesitate—book Monia and you won’t be disappointed!

5.00Monia was an amazing guide for our day exploring Umbria. We started with a lovely tour through Bavagna, did a local wine tasting overlooking the hills, and then spent our afternoon in Assisi. Monia was incredibly knowledgeable and pleasant. I'd highly recommend the tour!
A day in Assissi with Monia M

5.00We had Monia M for our guide of Assissi. She is clear, kind, and flexible. My mother has limits on how much she can walk at a time and she expertly helped adapt to having a wheelchair and driver along. We learned a lot, saw a lot and especially enjoyed the church of St Francis. Thank you Monia.
Worth every penny!

5.00Monia was our guide, and she was fantastic! Her wealth of knowledge about St. Francis, St. Clare, Assisi and the historical sights was impressive. She answered any question we asked, and spent more than the allotted time with us. We learned so much from our tour with her, and it was worth every penny. We would highly recommend this tour, and Monia as a guide. Thank you, Monia!
Beautiful and relaxing
