Beschrijving

Deze onvergetelijke excursie geeft je de kans om de gebaande paden te verlaten en een kijkje te nemen in de echte manier van leven van Francis. Hij nam Jezus' boodschap van eenvoud en niet-materialisme ter harte en daagde de decadentie van de Roomse Kerk uit. Het zal een authentieke ervaring zijn voor reizigers die geen haast hebben en tijd hebben om naar de stilte te luisteren.

Reisroute

60 min

De Eremo is een vredige, nederige en eenzame plek, genesteld in de bossen waar Francis en zijn volgelingen als kluizenaars in grotten woonden. Het prachtige uitzicht over de groene vallei en de omliggende heuvels heb je kan genieten van het kleine klooster is gewoon geweldig!

60 min

Op deze eenvoudige, stille en inspirerende plek componeerde Franciscus het Hooglied van de Wezens, het beroemde kruisbeeld van Sint Damiaan vroeg Hem om de kerk die in verval was te herstellen en Sint Clara bracht haar geestelijk leven door met haar metgezellen.

60 min

De enorme basiliek van de Heilige Maria van de Engelen, die werd gebouwd rond de kleine Porziuncola-kapel, is de plaats waar Franciscus met zijn broeders bad en stierf. Dit is ook waar de doornen van de rozen vielen waar Francis zich wierp om een verleiding te weerstaan.

Traveling to Assisi? Book Maura now!

We toured Assisi with our family of 7 adults, and Maura was an absolute pleasure to work with. She is highly knowledgeable and expertly tailors the experience to her group. Her tours are thorough and unhurried, and she does a fantastic job setting expectations—like detailing upcoming walking distances and terrain—which was incredibly helpful for my aging parents. Maura is deeply passionate about her region and loves sharing Umbria's rich history. I will definitely book her again when I return with my children!

St. Francis history tour of Assisi

Maura was the best guide for our family trip to learn about St. Francis. She did such a good job explaining the history of Assisi and showing us places we wouldn’t have found on our own. She’s a warm, friendly guide with a great sense of humor and immediately integrated with our group. I’d highly recommend using Maura as your guide.

It was a real pleasure meeting your family and spending the day together discovering Assisi and the life of Saint Francis. I am especially happy to hear that you felt comfortable and connected during the tour, as I always hope my guests feel not just guided but truly welcomed. Sharing the hidden corners of Assisi and the story of Saint Francis with such an interested and lovely family made the experience special for me as well.

Maura is the BEST tour guide!

I don't even know where to begin. Our guide, Maura, gave us the most personal, detailed, informative tour that we truly felt like we WERE walking in the footsteps of St. Francis. We are doing a tour of Italy for a special occasion and Maura made this trip extra special. I would HIGHLY recommend Maura as your next guide. You will NOT regret it. Best day on our trip hands down!

Thank you so much for your beautiful words! I feel truly honored that I could be part of such a special trip and special occasion for you. Walking through Assisi while retracing the life of Saint Francis is always a meaningful experience, and I am very happy to hear that you felt that connection during our time together. For me, it is not just about guiding, but about creating a memorable and personal experience for every guest. I hope the memories of Assisi will always remain a special part of your journey in Italy. Grazie.

Maura was EXCEPTIONAL!

The tour of the surrounding areas of Assisi - San Damiano, the hermitage and St. Maria degli Angeli - with Maura was the best excursion on our 8 day trip to Italy. Maura is not only knowledgeable around the history of St. Francis and the history of the Franciscan order but was born and raised in the region so has local knowledge of the area if you are interested. Her English is impeccable! Maura is truly a delight and a kind soul. Being in her presence was such a gift!

Wonderful tour, beautiful places!

In our first visit to Assisi, my wife and I hired Maura Baldoni to give us a private tour of “Surroundings of Assisi: in the Footsteps of Saint Francis” which included Santa Maria degli Angeli Basilica, San Damiano Church and Eremo delle Carceri. I had read quite a bit about St. Francis before the trip, but still, I learned a lot from Maura. Her story gave us a deeper understanding of the role these (beautiful) places played in the lives of St. Francis and St. Claire. We also learned about Maura, her family, and the Italian culture. The tour started at 9 AM and ended at noon just like she had described. Maura speaks English fluently and we had no problem understanding her. Since we didn’t have a car, she negotiated the taxis for us. If there’s any regret, it is that we forgot to take pictures at San Damiano 😃Otherwise, we enjoyed the tour and would gladly recommend it to others! PS: I found Maura through internet search, and I contacted her by email two months before our trip. I loved her answer when I asked her about the cancellation policy: “There’s no cancellation policy. I trust that you will come.” So simple 😃

Best Guide Ever!

Maura is an excellent tour guide. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our day with her. She is extremely knowledgeable and personable :). We both agreed that we wished we had more time in Umbria so that we could spend another day with Maura exploring Perugia and Gubbio. We had gone on our own however Mauras knowledge and recommendations really made our holiday memorable ❤️
