I dont know if there are many tours to choose from in Assisi, but you dont need to look anymore, just book this one. This time in Italy we took a lot of guided tours and I can honestly say that Michele was one of the best guides we had ever encountered in Italy. Tour was informative, interesting and a pleasure to take part of. Highly recommended! Vytautas

We wished we could see Pope Francis but we could never expected we could see him so closely thanks to Rossana great effort. Rossana and our driver Luigi are both great persons and the visit to the Pope very well organized. They both were professional, supportive, engaging and very helpful. Rossana took really a great effort to make the visit tailored to our needs and she had great sense of humour. Big thanks to R and L. We would highly recommend this tour.
