Museo Della Porziuncola
Porziuncola, is a small Catholic church located within the Papal Basilica of Saint Mary of the Angels in Assisi in Assisi. It is the place where the Franciscan movement started. The name Porziuncola (meaning "small portion of land") was found in the portion of land ("Portiuncula") belonging to the Order of Saint Benedict of Monte Subasio. Later, the name of the land passed to the little church itself. [2] Abandoned in a wood of oak trees. After a pilgrimage to Rome, where he had a picture of Jesus Christ in the wayside chapel of San Damiano, in which the Icon of Christ Crucified "Francis, Francis, go and repair My house which, as you can see, is falling into ruins". Francis took this literally to the ruined church and to assist the priest there for this purpose. His father Pietro, highly indignant, sought restitution. After a final interview in the bishop, Francis renounced his father and his patrimony, laying aside even the garments he had received from him. For the next couple of months lived in the region of Assisi. Returning to the town for two years, the little chapel of St Mary of the Angels, just outside the town.

Wonderful English language tour of Assisi.
I have retained many tour guides during my travels and I recommend Riccardo above all others. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the historical and religious background of Saint Francis and Saint Clair and makes the experience come alive. He loves the subject and it shows in his tour.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear that Riccardo made the history of Saint Francis and Saint Claire come alive for you. We hope to see you again on your next Italian adventure!

Tailor made visit to Assisi- just what we needed
A Tailor-Made Tour to Assisi, St. Francis and new Saint of the Internet, Acutis✨ After three incredible weeks in Rome—first row seats at a papal audience, the canonization of two saints, all four holy doors, and all the usual sites in Rome—we thought we’d seen it all. But our guide, Ricardo Lucidi of RomaItaliaexplora, urged us to visit Assisi. It became the highlight of our trip. Ricardo arranged everything for us with Camilla. We were picked up at 7 AM in a very comfortable car driven by Luiggi, we arrived before the crowds and began at the Sanctuary of the Spogliazione, where we spent ample time in prayer before Blessed Carlo Acutis, the “saint of the internet.” It was deeply moving. From there, we walked through the narrow winding streets of Assisi, a beautifully preserved medieval town, with easy to walk cobblestone streets. It felt like a journey back in time. We explored Saint Claire’s church and her tomb, and the upper and lower Basilicas of St. Francis. Thanks to Ricardo’s expert guidance, we understood the breathtaking frescos made by Giotto and Cimabue, that depict the life of Saint Francis and heard stories of the enduring Franciscan spirit. He adjusted the walking pace to ours, making the hilly city easy to enjoy. We paused for a delicious lunch at Saint Francesco, a lovely restaurant with the freshest vegetables and local foods. We were overlooking Assisi and soaked in views of Umbria that rival Tuscany. This wasn’t just sightseeing—it was an experience tailored to us. Ricardo brought history to life, answered every question with depth, and made sure we never felt rushed. Unlike crowded bus tours, this private experience gave us space for reflection, prayer, learning, and moments that will stay with us forever. Standing before St. Francis, St. Clare, and St. Carlo Acutis was more than a visit; it was a journey into faith, beauty, and history. Even if you’re not Catholic, Assisi’s art, architecture, and views will take your breath away. The money you spend cannot compare to the memories you’ll carry and the incredible and moving examples of love for others that you take with you. If you want a once-in-a-lifetime experience—personal, spiritual, and unforgettable—choose RomaItaliaexplora and Ricardo Lucidi for your private tour of Assisi.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful 5-star review! We’re truly happy to know that you had such a positive experience with us. Your kind words mean a lot to our team and motivate us to keep delivering the best service possible. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon and making your next visit just as enjoyable!

Carlo Acutis Experience
Having the opportunity of being in front of Blessed Carlo Acutis will always be engraved in my memory. Francesco and the drive are extremely professional and accommodated our needs. Francesco is a caring person.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your wonderful review! I’m so happy you enjoyed the experience and felt the positive energy throughout the tour. Your enthusiasm made it even more special. Wishing you many more great journeys ahead!

Fabulous, memorable time
Francesco, Daniella, and Luigi were all excellent. So helpful and knowledgeable. A great way to experience Assisi. Highly recommend. The more 'contemporary' religious things are perhaps more to the taste of each individual. But the history, the deeply knowledgeable guides and the excellent staff are not to be missed. Very high marks. And thank you to Francesco, Daniella and Luigi!
Response from the operator: It is with customers like you that we find the energy to improve ourselves every day! Thank you for your 5-stars review and for trusting us!

Why this scores 52
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Assisi St. Francis, St. Claire, St Acutis Private Tour from Rome: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rome.
How much does Assisi St. Francis, St. Claire, St Acutis Private Tour from Rome cost?
+
Prices start at $829 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rome usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Assisi St. Francis, St. Claire, St Acutis Private Tour from Rome take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Rome is not rushed.
Is Assisi St. Francis, St. Claire, St Acutis Private Tour from Rome worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rome, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Assisi St. Francis, St. Claire, St Acutis Private Tour from Rome?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Assisi St. Francis, St. Claire, St Acutis Private Tour from Rome suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Assisi St. Francis, St. Claire, St Acutis Private Tour from Rome?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Rome can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Rome and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Assisi St. Francis, St. Claire, St Acutis Private Tour from Rome start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Rome within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Rome?
+
Rome runs on skip-the-line access. The Colosseum underground, the Vatican before opening, and the catacombs south of the walls all require a licensed operator, and the price gap between the good ones and the rest is smaller than you would expect. We rank by guide credentials, group size and how reliably the promised access actually materialises. On Outty we rank every Rome experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Rome Pasta and Tiramisu Class: Ravioli, Fettuccine & Fine Wine 5*, Pasta Making & Wine Tasting with Dinner in Frascati from Rome, Rome: Pizza & Tiramisu or Gelato Class with Flowing Fine Wine 5*. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Rome?
+
April, May, September and October. August is hot and half the city is shut. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Rome?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
