We took a very complete one-day tour of Assisi, an authentic city of peace. The tour allowed us to explore numerous temples and delve into local histories, with a special focus on the life and impact of Saint Francis of Assisi. A particularly moving moment of the itinerary was the visit to the shrine of the recently canonized Carlo Acutis. The entire trip was extremely pleasant, a direct result of the work of our Kairos Viator guide, Alexander, who proved to be an exceptional professional and a devoted connoisseur of the saints' narratives and every detail of the temples visited. His conviction and erudition transformed the tour into an immersive journey of devotion and spirituality, always maintained in a calm and peaceful atmosphere. I absolutely recommend his services for those looking for a historical, structured, and spiritual tour.

The tour enabled me to know St Francis a little better.
The experience left me with a feeling of being deeply connected spiritually. I think I got to know St Francis of Assisi a little better. I saw him up close and personal based on all the places and information provided from the tour. The guide was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable.

Assisi: Excellent Value
Excellent! My best tour in Assisi. This was my 3rd tour in Assisi and I saw more Franciscan sites than in my last 2. Alexander explained the significance of each site and gave us enough time to pray, explore the sites, and shop!

Unforgettable experience in Assisi.
I participated in the Assisi tour, and I can say it was a wonderful experience. The city is already fascinating in itself, but visiting it with a knowledgeable and passionate guide allows one to truly appreciate its history, spirituality, and the details that would otherwise go unnoticed. The tour was well organized, enjoyable, and never boring. I greatly appreciated the balance between historical information, curiosities, and moments dedicated to discovering the most significant places in the city. Recommended for both those visiting Assisi for the first time and those who wish to get to know it more deeply. An experience that enriched my trip and that I would gladly do again. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
