The tour starts from your hotel, a chance to spend a delightful day out of Rome to visit Umbria, one of the most picturesque regions of Italy rich in vineyards, olive trees and the famous hilltop villages. One of the most famous is Assisi, an UNESCO World Heritage Site. The mystic town of Saint Francis, surrounded by its ancient walls, was built on the green slopes of Mount Subasio and with its colorful houses of stone, narrow streets, flowering balconies and noble palaces provide beautiful views for memorable pictures (do not forget your camera). An interesting visit to St. Francis Basilica, with its early Renaissance masterpieces by Giotto and Cimabue, and the Basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli. Time for lunch in a typical restaurant (optional) and then the tour continues to Orvieto, where you can admire a masterpiece of Gothic architecture with a glistening façade of stained glass, mosaics and sculptures. Soak up Orvieto’s charm and explore the city center and then Back to Rome.

Very personalized! Maria, Marco (Tour guides) and Giancarlo driver, were very affable, knowledgeable and are locals to the area. We had a wonderful dining experience (based on Maria recommendation). Walked the streets and saw beautiful Churches. I came for religious pilgrimage and they were attentive to that showing me some personalized sites. I give them my highest recommendation. And would recommend it to my family and friends. Ciao Italo
Awesome Assisi tour

Magical day in Assisi and Orvieto, Maria and Claudio were excellent guides. They kept our family constantly fascinated and engaged. Loved every minute of this wonderful experience.
If you had to pick one option for a trip to Assisi, pick this one.

I have to admit - this is one review I was looking forward to writing. This tour company and their staff was absolutely awesome. I had some great and some not so good tours (eg not worth the money,) and I will put this excursion as the best experience so far. What makes it great, it is all about the people. Our team of Natalia and Chrissy were exceptional in their courtesy, insights, and adapted to our needs. Our guide in Assisi, Marco, was also amazing. This is a long tour with much packed into the day, but also a journey where you connect with the tour guides and others. I was concerned about which tour to pick, do I rely on the hotel or go my own via Viator. I certainly made the right choice. My recommendation for the company is to offer Orvieto as an add on option to Assisi to manage the long day. A second recommendation is to partner with some restaurants and to include lunch in the price for a real - outside of Rome, rustic experience. I saw no minuses in this experience so much so that we recommended this to several people at our hotel and church group. The write up description of the tour cannot articulate the amazing experience this company offers.
Memorable and magical tour !

The most memorable part of this tour was our tour guide Marie , an informative and gracious lady who is willing to share her knowledge and love of the Umbrian region. We started in the picturesque city of Orvieto, home of St Claire, faithful follower of St. Francis. She recommended a wonderful Cafe where we had the best lunch of the week , delicious ! On to Assisi the home and burial place of St. Francis , the beloved Saint known and loved worldwide. With Marie and the capable driving of Pietro our tour was memorable, informative and magical . Special thanks to Marco an extraordinarily pleasant man who portrayed the real meaning of St. Francis
