Overview

Discover the timeless streets of Assisi on a fully private walking tour guided by a licensed local expert. From the luminous Gothic façade of the Basilica of Saint Clare to the remarkably preserved Roman columns of the Temple of Minerva, every step reveals centuries of sacred and civic history layered within a UNESCO World Heritage site. Walk the same stone-paved lanes trodden by medieval pilgrims along Via San Francesco, duck into the intimate Oratorio dei Pellegrini with its breathtaking Renaissance frescoes, and finish at the monumental Basilica of Saint Francis — a cornerstone of Western art and spirituality. Entrance fees to two selected ticketed attractions are included, adding exceptional value. The itinerary is shaped entirely around your interests and pace, ensuring an unhurried, deeply personal encounter with the stories of Saints Francis and Clare and the remarkable heritage of Umbria's most celebrated hilltop town.
