Rejseplan
Basilikaen Santa Maria degli Angeli ligger 4 km fra Assisi. Inde i basilikaen er der Porziuncola-kapellet; det sted, den hellige Frans elskede mest, og hvor Gud skænkede ham særlige nåder. Oprindeligt var Porziuncola et gammelt kapel, omgivet af en lille del af skoven (deraf måske navnet), der tilhørte benediktinerne i klosteret S. Benedetto del Monte Subasio. Efter at have været forladt i lang tid, blev det restaureret af Francesco, som lejede det af abbed Teobaldo. Efter den helliges død opstod der nogle faste bygninger omkring kirken: brødrekoret, forskellige små oratorier og så et lille kloster. I anden halvdel af 1500-tallet beordrede Pius V opførelsen af en stor basilika, der skulle omslutte og beskytte Porziuncola og byde velkommen til skaren af pilgrimme, der konstant strømmede dertil.
Basilikaen Santa Chiara er en religiøs bygning, bygget i nyromansk stil, beliggende i Assisi. Basilikaen er blandt de mest berømte i Italien og en af de smukkeste i Umbrien. Kirken markerer ikke kun byens historiske centrum, men også et betydningsfuldt sted fra et kunstnerisk og kulturelt synspunkt. Basilikaen Santa Chiara blev bygget af benediktinermunkene, som havde ønsket om at ære Santa Chiara, født Agnese i 1194 og døde den 13. september 1253. I øjeblikket sammen med Porziuncola, Eremo delle Carceri, Chiesa Nuova og basilikaen af San Damiano, San Rufino-katedralen og naturligvis San Francesco-basilikaen, er et af de centre, hvor pilgrimsrejsen til Assisi er koncentreret.
Pragtfuld barokresidens med freskomalerier i begyndelsen af det syttende århundrede af umbriske og toscanske malere. Er Pinacoteca Comunale di Assisi, indeni er de en iøjnefaldende gruppe af middelalder- og renæssancefresker.
Basilikaen San Francesco d'Assisi, det sted, der har bevaret de jordiske rester af den serafiske helgen siden 1230, er et af de vigtigste tilbedelsessteder i Italien og verden. I 2000 blev basilikaen optaget på UNESCOs verdensarvsliste. Den første sten til basilikaen Sankt Frans af Assisi blev lagt den 16. juli 1228, kun to dage efter Frans' død og dagen efter hans proklamation som helgen af pave Gregor IX. Traditionen tro var det Frans selv, der angav præcis det sted, hvor han ønskede at blive begravet. Kirken repræsenterer en af hjørnestenene i udbredelsen af gotikken i Italien. Ud over at være begravelsesstedet for den hellige Frans fik det grundlæggende betydning for pavedømmet, som så franciskanerordenen som en stor allieret til at styrke båndene til de ydmygeste og mest populære klasser. Byggeriet af basilikaen blev startet i 1228 af pave Gregor IX og derefter indviet i 1253 af pave Innocentius IV.
Opdag graven til Carlo Acutis i Santa Maria Maggiore i Assisi. Udforsk basilikaen, lær den inspirerende historie om denne unge helgen, og oplev en virkelig rørende åndelig rejse i hjertet af Assisi.
Dome of Orvieto er en af de smukkeste italienske katedraler, et mesterværk af den gotiske arkitektur i centrum af Italien. Den storslåede bygning dominerer skrænten oppe, som Orvieto ligger på grund af sin størrelse. Især facadens pragt er kendt over hele ordet med sine tårne, der når en højde på omkring 53 meter. Glem ikke det indre af kuplen, med vidunderlige dekorationer og fresker lavet af nogle af de mest store malere fra fortiden, blandt andet den berømte Giudizio Universale af Luca Signorelli.
Udforsk Orvieto, en af de ældste byer i Italien, skylder sin oprindelse til den etruskiske civilisation: de første bosættelser går tilbage til det 9. århundrede f.Kr. og de lokaliserede sig inde i de tufagtige huler, der blev skabt i det massiv, som den umbriske by ligger på i øjeblikket. Selvom Orvietos berømmelse er dybt sammenflettet med dens storslåede katedral, byder byen på talrige historisk-kunstneriske ideer og rejseplaner, netop i kraft af sin gamle oprindelse. Desuden, oppe på en klippe, byder Orvieto på en virkelig fantastisk panoramaudsigt.

Excellent! Tour assistant and driver were both very pleasant. On time departure. Beautiful drive. Tour guide Marco in Assisi was very thorough and excellent topic knowledge. Tour went long because he seemed to really enjoy what he does. Tour assistant pointed things out on the way, but also didn’t just talk at us the whole time. I cannot recommend the group at Welcome Italy enough for their day excursions. Cars are very clean and comfortable. We had paid for a small group tour but it ended up being only us which made the tour even more personal.

Welcome Italy was such a great way for my wife and I to experience a full trip in Rome. We actually had three separate excursions with them. First we went to Castel Gandolfo and Nemi. After a full three days in Rome, this was such a quiet and relaxing day. Antoinetta was so personable and made us feel at home, and our driver Pietro was great. The second day we traveled with Marie and Pino to Orvieto and Assisi. Again, both were professional and it felt like we were traveling with old friends by the end of the day. Our third day we traveled with Cascia and Spoleto. Another day of being immersed with a rich understanding of the history thanks to our guide, Juliana, and driver Flavio. Disclaimer here… my wife and I are Catholic, and from that perspective we felt so close to the history of the church. The guides did a great job of understanding that and catering to it each day. Their recommendations on restaurants while traveling were top notch as well. I cannot say enough good things about the days we spent with Welcome Italy and will absolutely be using their services on our next trip to Italy!
