Assisi is a must-see in Umbria, especially famous because it is the birthplace of Saint Francis, who founded the Franciscan religious order here in 1208. Assisi is fascinating for spiritual, artistic and historical reasons: the remains of the Ancient Roman city and the breathtaking churches from the Middle Ages make it one of the most beautiful towns in Italy! Discover the Roman Forum (main square) and the impressive Temple of Minerva, whose columns still stand after more than 2000 years! Then, time to follow your knowledgeable guide to the medieval city of St. Francis and his followers, and have a look at the most beautiful churches in Assisi: the Basilica of St. Clare, the Gothic church that contains her mortal remains, the Cathedral of St. Rufinus, in Romanesque style, and the most-renowned Basilica of Saint Francis. Here you will admire the breathtaking frescoes painted by famous Italian artists like Giotto and Cimabue, and you will discover two superimposed churches, known as the Upper Church, slender and bright, in Gothic style, and the Lower Church, where Saint Francis was buried.

The highest waterfall in Europe, the Marmore Falls is one of Umbria’s most famous sights and a popular day trip from Assisi. With this tour, learn how the ancient Romans engineered these falls more than 2,000 years ago and spot native flora and fauna as you stroll along the Ring of the Nymphs and Meeting of the Waters trails with your guide.

Umbria is home to some of Italy’s most picturesque hilltop villages, but most are inaccessible by public transport and hard to find on your own. With this driving tour, skip the tricky logistics and visit four villages in a single day. Admire the tiny canals of Rasiglia and stroll through Trevi before stopping in Bevagna and ending in the hamlet of Collepino on the slopes of Mt. Subasio.
