Suggested Itinerary
Your private driver will pick you up from your hotel in Rome in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle for a scenic two-hour journey to Assisi, a UNESCO-listed town nestled in the rolling hills of the Umbria region. Assisi holds great historical and spiritual significance as the birthplace of Italy’s patron saint, St. Francis of Assisi.
Upon arrival, begin your visit at the 13th-century Basilica di San Francesco, a World Heritage Site and one of the world’s most important pilgrimage destinations. Here, Catholics from all over the globe come to pay their respects at the tomb of St. Francis. Take your time exploring the basilica’s remarkable architecture and peaceful surroundings.
Next, enjoy an authentic Italian meal at a local restaurant before continuing your tour to the Basilica of St. Clare (Basilica di Santa Chiara), dedicated to St. Clare, a devoted follower of St. Francis. Your final stop is the Basilica of St Mary of the Angels (Basilica di Santa Maria degli Angeli), located at the foot of the hill on which Assisi stands. This impressive church holds deep spiritual significance and beautifully complements your exploration of the town’s sacred sites.
