Itinerário
Conheça a Guia às 10:30 da manhã e visite as antigas ruínas romanas do anfiteatro local, que foi reutilizado na Idade Média como uma pedreira de pedras para construir casas locais. Você verá como o anfiteatro foi transformado em um bairro privado. A partir daí, a vista para o castelo medieval Rocca Maggiore é uma das melhores da cidade. Através de encostas estreitas e praças medievais, você alcançará a Catedral de Saint Rufino e a Basílica de Saint Claire. A partir daí, você chegará à praça principal da cidade, a Piazza del Comune. Na praça você verá um dos templos romanos mais bem preservados da Itália – o templo de Minerva – que é cercado por imponentes edifícios do governo medieval. O passeio irá então dirigir-se para a Basílica de São Francisco, que é mundialmente famosa por seus frescos do século 13 - 14 pelos melhores pintores da Itália na época. Entre eles, o mais famoso é Giotto.
A Basílica de Santa Clara de Assis, decorada com a típica pedra rosa extraída da pedreira da montanha Subasio, contém preciosos afrescos que remontam ao período que vai do século XII ao XIV. Na capela à direita, ao longo da nave única de Santa Clara de Assis, terminando em transepto e abside poligonal, é possível admirar o Crucifixo que, segundo a tradição, teria convidado São Francisco na igreja de São Damião para "restabelecer a Igreja”
Chiesa Nuova. A Chiesa Nuova é uma igreja em Assis, Itália, construída em 1615 no local do suposto local de nascimento de São Francisco, a casa de Pietro di Bernardone. Antigamente chamada de Chiesa Nuova porque foi a última igreja a ser construída em Assis na época.
A Catedral de Assis, dedicada a São Rufino (Rufino de Assis) é uma igreja em Assis.
O Templo de Minerva é um antigo edifício romano em Assis, Umbria, centro da Itália. Atualmente, ele abriga uma igreja, Santa Maria Sopra Minerva, construído em 1539 e renovado em estilo barroco no século XVII.
Reconhecida como um Patrimônio Mundial da UNESCO, a basílica de São Francisco foi construída sob a direção de Irmão Elias, vigário geral e arquiteto da ordem, com início em 1228, a apenas dois anos após a morte do santo, como um lugar projetado para receber seus restos mortais.
Se a solene e escura basílica inferior convida à penitência e ao silêncio, a igreja superior eleva-se arejada e luminosa no céu. Em estilo gótico com influências francesas, a nave tem quatro baías, abóbada de aresta e um transepto poligonal e abside.

We had the pleasure of having Marica as our tour guide. She was absolutely the BEST. Her knowledge and passion of Assisi made the tour so enjoyable and fun. She took us down side streets and truly showed us the best parts of this lovely place. She really took her time to explain the back history of every landmark we were seeing. She recommended some of the best places to grab lunch, dinner and where to find the best gelato in town! We had such a good morning and tour with Marica and would recommend her to everyone we know! We have been lucky enough to run into her a few times since the tour and has been the highlight of the trip :) Thank you Marica for making our trip to Assisi one to remember!
Thank you so much for such a heartfelt review! We’re absolutely delighted to hear how much you enjoyed your time in Assisi with Marica. Her passion for the city and her ability to bring its history and hidden corners to life are exactly what make a walking tour truly special. We’re especially happy that you enjoyed discovering the quieter side streets, learning the stories behind the landmarks, and getting some local tips for restaurants and gelato along the way! And what a lovely coincidence to have crossed paths with Marica again during your stay — we’re sure that made your experience in Assisi even more memorable. Thank you for recommending the tour so warmly. We’ll be very happy to share your kind words with Marica!
Great, informative tour! We saw the churches for St Clare and St Francis. My only negative is that there wasn’t any info given on the new Saint Carlo Acutis. Since he is our first modern Saint and there is a lot of excitement around the city about him, would have been great to include him in the tour.
Thank you so much for this thoughtful review! We're glad you enjoyed the visit to the churches of St. Clare and St. Francis. We really appreciate the feedback about Saint Carlo Acutis - it's such a meaningful and timely topic given all the excitement in the city, and we'll be sure to look into including it in our tours going forward. We hope to welcome you back soon to Assisi!
I recommend Viator travel when booking a tour. Based on my experienced, Viator’s tour guides are very knowledgeable…
Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We're delighted Alessandra's deep knowledge of Assisi's history and the Basilica of St. Francis made such an impression on you. We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to her. We hope to welcome you back soon for more adventures in Umbria!

I took my family who lives in the States to visit Umbria, including a visit to Perugia at the first Perugina factory with an exceptional guide, Alice, who was super prepared, just like the excellent Myriam who accompanied us on the tour of Assisi. In Orvieto, we also had an exceptional guide, Nazzareno, who is also a super professional. We were extremely satisfied.
This tour would have benefited from headsets. Lots of walking which was expected but also a lot of time lost where more information could have been given. The guide was fine but for me I wish there had been more explication.
Antonella was a fabulous tour guide who spoke with enthusiastic energy on the religious history of Assisi. She taught use a things we did not know from this quaint charming and very clean town. She knew the history of St Francis and Churches that influenced the names of American cities like Los Angeles and San Francisco and the early life of hospitals as a not just medical but wear travelers would stop on their travels for meals which derives the term “hospitality”!
Very knowledgeable guide who captivated our attention and kept an easy pace.
For my family of six, we booked a private tour of Assisi, with our delightful guide Marica, taking us through the spectacular town of Assisi and the amazing sights, including visiting St Clare and St Francis’ Basilica and visiting St Carlo too. We had the best experience and our guide Marica was truly inspiring, filled with passion and love for Assisi, St Francis and St Clare and was so incredibly knowledgeable. My family enjoyed every minute of the tour with her. She was warm and took such good care of our whole group. I highly recommend the tour.
The 2.5 Small Group Tour of Assisi was very informative. We loved learning about the saints and the stories of their lives. The tour guide did a fabulous job in letting us experience how the saints lived as real people during those times. The only criticism we have is that the day was extremely hot, and the tour guide never took that into consideration—never asking us to sit in the shade or consider that people could get heat stroke. It was somewhat insensitive. Overall the tour was very informative.
