What are people saying about Assisi

Jan_G, May 2026

Alessandra, our guide,...

Alessandra, our guide, was terrific. She is very knowledgeable and personable. We learned a lot about the churches, St. Francis (of course), Santa Chiara, architecture, history, arts and the culture of Assisi. She showed us wonderful frescos of Giotto and explained the artist’s biography. The 2.5 hours went by too quickly!

Julie_M, Mar 2026

Should have been messaged

Our tour guide was the best possible. My only complaint is that I paid to see St Francis Basilica and it was prohibited due to the body of St Francis being shown. This should have been communicated by message well in advance so I could look at options and not be let down. Our guide showed us everything else and this is not her fault. But I did not get what I paid for.

An informative and lovely tour with Michele

Michele was a wonderful guide full of knowledge of Assisi and the surrounding Umbrian region. He customised the tour to our preferences given it was just my family of 4 attending. He provided the life and history of St. Francis and other figures important to the area. We highly recommend the tour and Michele specifically as he is really a great guide and lovely man.

We had a wonderful...

We had a wonderful experience on the Assisi tour. The town is absolutely beautiful, and the tour was very well organized. Our guide was knowledgeable and engaging, sharing meaningful historical and cultural insights that truly brought Assisi to life. We especially appreciated walking from the upper part of Assisi down to the lower town, which made the experience much easier and more enjoyable as we were traveling with a senior. Highly recommend!

Pasta Making Class with Mamma in Assisi

Peter_M, Dec 2025

Excellent Experience!

My wife and I had an excellent time learning how to make authentic pasta and tiramisu with Eleanora in Assisi! Despite a bit of a language barrier, she was a thorough and patient teacher, and we had a lot of fun with her. It ended up just being the two of us who signed up, so it was a very intimate experience. A word of caution, however - just make sure you check in with your host about expectations and dietary preferences before you arrive. We interpreted "food allergies" too strictly and did not write that my wife is a vegetarian, and so she was unable to eat the pre-prepared ravioli stuffing. Eleanora told us that if she had known, she would have just made a cheese filling instead of meat. That was totally on us. The other mix-up was that there seemed to be a miscommunication between Viator and whatever system Eleanora was using. The description for the class I signed up for explicitly said "pasta AND tiramisu" class, but Eleanora's description only said pasta. She was confused, but she wanted us to be happy, so she scrambled and was able to cobble together a delicious tiramisu for us to take back to our hotel for later. We even got to taken some of our pasta home with us!

Tili tantalizing tour of wine, oil, aged balsamic vinegar tasting.

Getting picked up by one of the tour guides who drives you to the vineyard and explains things along the way is an excellent experience. The exploration of the organic wine making process along with seeing of the process is a memorable way of learning. After seeing and learning about the processing of the grapes and olives it was delightful to sit down with some family members and have them pour wine, olive oil and taste them along with some charcuterie. The aged balsamic vinegar tasting and explanation tops off the whole experience in a comfortable setting.

Excellent Tour of the Basilica di San Francesco

The Basilica is quite a way up from the lower town and is then on two levels plus the stairs down to the crypt. My husband was in a wheelchair, and everyone from the tour guide, the guards, the police were helpful in getting him from place to place. Our tour guide, Francesca, was EXTREMELY knowledgable about the history of Umbria, the town of Assisi, the Basilica, and the life of St. Frances. I would hire her again in a heartbeat for any tour. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Maurizio our guide was so sweet and the dog was happy searching for truffles. He would sniff and start to dig then we were shown how to dig them up! You do go up and down the hillside, and our guide was helpful to assure we didn’t slip. The country side views were stunning. I really enjoyed the experience.
