Our experience was excellent. Our driver/guide, Matteo arrived precisely on time in a beautifully appointed car. Along the way Matteo suggested a stop at the Basilica, Saint Mary of the Angels, which was an incredible stop making the trip even more worthwhile. We strolled Assisi relaxed and un-pressured by time constraints. Our second stop was Orvieto a charming uncrowded hilltop village with spectacular views and history. I would gladly book this trip again and request the same driver/guide. We enjoyed great conversation along the way with incredible cultural insight

This was an absolutely wonderful time! The ride was beautiful, the car was air-conditioned and had bottled water and the driver was so nice. He made us reservations in the second town for lunch and walked us through a lot of the churches we were going to see before we got there. We couldn’t have asked for a better day. We very much recommend this to other people.
