We really enjoyed this private tour!
It was divided into two parts. The first being a walk around Perugia. We are so pleased we did this as we were totally unaware of the Entrusian remains of a city under ground level. It was incredible!
The second part was Assisi equally as fascinating but from a religious way rather than cultural. We are not religious but found the churches of St Francis and St Clare very interesting and beautiful! Assisi is a beautiful town in itself!
We really enjoyed our day and our guide was fantastic with real enthusiasm for the places we visited.
We would both definately recommend and in fact went back the following day to relook at some of the sights we had seen in Perugia plus visited some of our guides recommendations with the Entrusisn Well and the Chocolate museum!
Thank you so much!

We’re happy that our guide’s passion helped make your day memorable. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you again for another unforgettable Umbria guided tour!

The day was cold, windy, and damp, but the warmth of our guide Barbara and our driver cut through all that and made it a truly memorable visit. Barbara’s knowledge of art and history was amazing. There is a lot of walking and steps but she made allowances and accommodated our pace. We missed nothing. At the end of the day we felt we were saying goodbye to an old friend that we hope will see again soon. She made the tour a great personal experience, so much more than just visiting historical and religious monuments.

This tour was a great way to see the best of Perugia and Assisi in a day. 1st part was a walking tour of Perugia hosted by Pepe. Great views of the city, Etruscan walls, old fort ruins as well as history of Perugia and Italy. Also some excellent tips on a sunset bar and pizza by slice. Perugia is a wonderful and underrated city. 2nd part we were collected by a driver and taken to Assisi. Met by expert guide and taken through this fascinating world heritage site. A must see if you are in the region. All up one of the best private tours you can do in Italy.

Amazing historical and religious overview and detailed view of these Umbrian hill towns!!! Werner was an amazing guide!!

Our guide, Werner, was truly a local, with earlier European background. His knowledge of history and art was amongst the best of any guide we have used anywhere. And his love of Assisi and St. Francis was very obvious. We also liked that he was flexible in scheduling, and open to expanding discussions.

Francesca made our two city day tour very memorable. She brilliantly covered a huge amount of artistic social and cultural history across all of the ages of Etruscan, Roman, medieval and Renaissance history. She kept us in the shade when it got too hot and went at my slower pace when it was needed, and very kindly organised for us to take the tour of Basilica of San Francesco D’assisi from the top down so I didn’t need to walk the many steps going up! We would thoroughly recommend this incredible tour and our personal thanks to Francesca for a wonderful day.

We loved this tour. Easy stroll around both cities. Our guide Michaela was wonderful and you could hear the passion he has for both cities and it’s history. And the recommendations for restaurants and other sites were spot on. These may be two small cities but having this tour made us fall in love with Umbria even more
