Truly Amazing - Incredible tour by an amazing tour guide, Andre. The explanation of the frescos featuring the life of Jesus and the life of St. Francis was very interesting.

Fabulous frescoes - As examples of early art they are incredible Sadly St Frances gets very much taken over by your groups with guides giving running commentary via audio mikes - spoils the ambience

Wonderful tour with a very knowledgeable guide! Highly recommend! - My husband and I travelled to Italy with a large group. We booked this as a private tour and were so glad we did. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and provided so many details that I wanted to record everything because she knew so much about the history of the Basilica's that it was hard to soak it all in. I wish I could remember her name to give her credit! Highly recommend!

Highly recommended tour for Assisi - Begonia (our guide with Umbria con me) was an excellent tour guide. Rather informed about history and the details of the importance of Francis, and Assisi, she brought the art, city, and history to life! Highly recommend this tour to help you appreciate Assisi!

Well-organized trip to Assisi from Rome - Our group of 7 people had a great time on this well-organized full day trip to Assisi from Rome on a Sunday in May 2023, starting from David, my email contact in Umbriaconme, who responded quickly to my inquiries and considered my request to add the Duomo in Orvieto in our itinerary, to Fabrizio, our driver and to Maricar, our tour guide. Fabrizio is very professional and we were impressed when he arrived on time at our hotel in Rome in his Sunday suit. He is a reliable driver and speaks English very well. On our way to Assisi, he told us about the historical buildings and famous roads in Rome and Umbria as well as amusing stories about Italy, so there was no boring moment in the 3-hour journey each way. Maricar, our guide in Assisi is a competent tour guide and very knowledgeable about the history of the 3 Basilicas (St Francis, Sta Chiara and Saint Mary of the Angels) and Umbria as she was from there. As we have 2 elderly in our group, she took care of their needs so that they will be able to visit the Basilicas at their own pace. She also went out of her way to find a restaurant nearby that would serve late lunch with typical Umbrian dish. Highly recommended.
