Amazingly Informative Assisi Tour - After walking around several other towns without a guide, we are so glad that we took this tour. Alessandra shared a wealth of information about the cultural, artistic and religious history of Assisi, along with insights about the life and impact of St. Francis. Alessandra is very personable and it was easy to ask questions given the small size of our group. Highly recommend!

Great tour of Assisi highlights at a good price. - Our guide, Michele, was very knowledgeable and ran the tour efficiently. I really appreciate having a small group tour option. There were a total of 11 people in our group and it was fun meeting everyone and soooo much more reasonable than a private tour for two of us.

Outstanding Tour - This was an outstanding tour. September 14. Our guide, a former teacher, delighted in telling our group the history of Assisi, from Roman times to present. She knew all the dates and facts, including the stories depicted in paintings. We highly recommend
