About this experience

Assisi is famously associated with Saint Francis and Saint Clare (the founders of the Franciscan order and the Order of the Poor Clares), who lived in this captivating medieval town that rests peacefully on the serene slopes of Mount Subasio, overlooking the breathtaking vistas of the Umbrian countryside. You will be awe-inspired by the perfectly preserved town primarily built with pale pink and grey stones quarried nearby, its imposing basilicas that house the tombs of the saints, and the ruins of the imperial fortress that crowns Assisi. PLEASE NOTE Your driver is NOT a licensed tour guide. This is as Tour By Car with only an English Speaking Driver (it does NOT include Tour Guides or Walking Tours). To comply with italian strict laws, drivers are obliged to remain with the vehicle while guests sightsee on their own away from the vehicle.

What you'll see and do

  1. Basilica di Santa Maria degli Angeli

    At the foot of the hill upon which Assisi rests, is the town of Santa Maria degli Angeli with the basilica by the same name (Saint Mary of the Angels) that houses the famous Porziuncula. Translating to “small portion of land, the Porziuncola is a tiny ancient stone chapel that was given to Saint Francis in 1211 and it has been the most sacred place for the Franciscans as this is also the place where Saint Francis died on October 3, 1226.

  2. Basilica Papale e Sacro Convento di San Francesco d'Assisi

    The massive Basilica of Saint Francis is composed of 2 levels: the Upper Basilica and the Lower Basilica. Construction began immediately after St Francis was canonized in 1228, and it features the well-recognized frescoes by the famous medieval artist Giotto and Cimabue. Beneath the Lower Basilica, you can visit the tomb of Saint Francis.

  3. Piazza del Comune

    Previously an ancient Roman forum, this popular square situated in the center of Assisi is the town’s nucleus, and it’s surrounded by excellent restaurants, cafes, shops that sell local products, boutique markets, and more. Time for lunch!

  4. Santa Maria sopra Minerva

    Right on Piazza del Comune, you will see the visible remains of the ancient Roman pagan Temple of goddess Minerva. In the 1500s the structure was transformed into the church of Santa Maria Sopra Minerva. In the 17th century, the church was further renovated in the richly ornate Baroque style that resembles a “jewel box”.

  5. Basilica di Santa Chiara

    This 13th-century basilica dedicated to Saint Claire features enormous lateral buttresses on the outside and simple Gothic interior. Below, you can visit the tomb of Saint Claire. Inside the Chapel of the Crucifix, hangs the cherished “San Damiano Cross”, the large wooden crucifix that is believed to have come alive and spoken to Saint Francis. Outside, the outer side of the square in front of the basilica will reward you with a stunningly beautiful panorama.

Assisi - the Footsteps of the Saints (Driver Only/Self Touring): questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rome.

How much does Assisi - the Footsteps of the Saints (Driver Only/Self Touring) cost?

+

Prices start at $900 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 - the Footsteps of the Saints (Driver Only/Self Touring) take?

+

Plan for about 9 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 - the Footsteps of the Saints (Driver Only/Self Touring) worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 44 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 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 - the Footsteps of the Saints (Driver Only/Self Touring)?

+

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 - the Footsteps of the Saints (Driver Only/Self Touring) suitable for kids and families?

+

Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

How far in advance should I book Assisi - the Footsteps of the Saints (Driver Only/Self Touring)?

+

Around 0 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 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Assisi - the Footsteps of the Saints (Driver Only/Self Touring) 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.
