Excellent tour of Assisi, including Sta Chiara, Sta Maria Maggiore, a city stroll, and the basilicas of S. Francesco. Our guide, Francesca, is a gifted storyteller and an outstanding guide.

The private walking tour was an outstanding experience! Our guide, Francesca, was interesting and extremely knowledgeable about the history, art, and details of the town and basilicas. She readily tailored the tour to our areas of greatest interest. All members of our group had previously visited Assisi and everyone said that they learned a great deal of new information from Francesca.

What a wonderful experience. Our tour guide spoke fluent English and was very knowledgeable with all the areas of Assisi he walked us through. I highly recommend taking the tour if anyone is thinking of visiting Assisi. If you don't, you will be missing a lot!

Begoña is the best! She has a great charisma and passion for the city of Assisi. We did a tour with four little ones and she was able to keep them engaged and the kids loved it as well as the adults. Beautiful to get to know the history.

Our guide Simone was very nice despite us being 45 mins late as we got our communication mixed up. Apologies! She was patient & very knowledgeable in all the sites we visited. A great experience .

Werner was a great guide for our family of 6 (2 adults and 4 teenagers). He gave us a comprehensive history of Assisi, St. Clare, St. Francis, as well as the opportunity to visit the tomb of Carlo Acutis, and provide us with a wonderful lunch option, too. He helped us find shelter during some thunderstorms, and gave us additional information about other churches and things to see in Assisi. We would definitely recommend Werner to anyone looking to learn more about Assisi and the saints who left their marks there so long ago.

My friend and I were heading to Assisi for the first time and we knew that we needed a guide in such a historic city. First of all, it is a beautiful city as you approach by car. Once in the city there is so much to see! We were fortunate to have such a wonderful expert guide to take us around the city and explain all the significant places. Margharita was fantastic! We had such a wonderful time.

Travellers should be aware that the terrain in Assisi is quite hilly so lots of up and down walking but nothing to do with the tour itself. The atmosphere in Assisi is one of peaceful reflection and spirituality, underlined by the presence of many groups of religious orders we encountered on our journey. Our guide Michele was sensitive to our physical needs as it was very hot and walking was slightly problematic due to a back injury I had sustained previously. Michele was proactive in that he had looked us up on WhatsApp and was able to approach us at the meeting point, knowing what I looked like. Michele is a mine of information and brought to life not only the history of Assisi but also current religious issues and controversies. We had heard previously about Carlo Acuti, the young man who was beatified in October 2020, (is to become a saint) and were very privileged to be taken to see him lying in state in his Nike trainers and jeans in the chapel of Santa Maria Maggiore - an extraordinary, unique and unforgettable experience. The tour also included the Basilica of St Francis which is absolutely beautiful and seemed a fitting resting place for an extraordinary man. We thoroughly recommend this tour.
