Excellent private tour and devotion

We had an amazing time with Francesca. We started the tour at the Basilica and she explained the life and miracles of St Francis so well which made the tour unforgettable. She also brought us to St Clare and helped us find and be seated at a nearby restaurant. Having tired seniors from our Group, Francesca gave us her utmost patience and understanding. Well done Francesca, thank you for making our Assisi visit a memorable one.

Francesca met us at the door of the basilica with a friendly greeting and it only got better afterwards. She directed us to interesting and beautiful sights and filled in with insights that were thought-provoking as well as historical. The Basilica and later the whole town came alive due to her narrative.

Michele was our guide he did an amazing job!! His stories of Assisi and Saint Francis was superior. He kept us out of the crowds and in the shady streets on a hot August day while explaining everything in detail. Even for some one from Perugia we were very welcome in Assisi.

Cecelia was so knowledgable, personable and effective. We would have never enjoyed seeing the sections of Assissi that she revealed if she was not our guide. We will never forget our wonderful time with Cecelta.

We made reservations less than 48 hours prior to the tour, which caused some problems. However, our guide Catina was phenomenal. For over 3 hours she informed us about the art and architecture of Assisi, and of the history of St. Francis and of the area, back to pre-Roman times. Well-versed on her subject matter, she paid attention to details. Her English was faultless and her knowledge encyclopedic. One of the best tours we have ever taken! (Be advised, however, you will walk around 5 miles and climb stairs!)

Dear Cartier. Thank you so much for sharing your amazing knowledge on the art, history and of course the religion of Assisi. I think being a local made such a difference to your passion about the area of Assisi and surrounds. The tour was wonderful beginning to end and I will be recommending your services to all those travelling to Assisi in the future. Thanks also for the restaurant recommendations and visits to other sites. We did get to The Hermitage and down to see the Porziuncola in Santa Maria degli Angeli which was so lovely. Wishing you all the best and thank you so much for your care and exceptional tour expertise. Kerry and Harry Williams
