Amazing sites with incredible stories and history brought to life by an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide. - Our guide was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and absolutely lovely. We were given so much information in a captivating way and were invited to ask any questions. We were made to feel comfortable and reassured we could take the tour at the pace that suited us and have breaks (it was very hot). It was amazing to see such beautiful sites and we had a very mixed group of teenagers, young people in their 20s and parents and she managed to engage and hold all of our attention. We would highly recommend this tour.

2-3 hour private tour in Assisi - This was an excellent private walking tour in Assisi focused on St Francis. Margherite was very knowledgable and fun to spend a few hours with. I highly recommend Margherite.

A Great Tour in Assisi - Our guide was Antonella and we met her at Piazza Santa Chiara as planned. We were a party of 6 and it was just us. We had a fantastic time. Antonella's knowledge of art, history, the Church, St. Clare and St. Francis was outstanding and completely engaging. We were able to experience Assisi emotionally, intellectually and artistically. Highly, highly recommended.
Thank you so much for a wonderful experience.
