    What you'll see and do

    1. Cascia

      This tour includes a visit of the most iconic and historical locations in Italy. Cascia is not only associated with the famous Saint, Holy Rita from Cascia, but it was the home of the Roman settlement of Carsulae, destroyed in the 1st century BC by an earthquake. In the middle ages, it was annihilated by the Byzantines and the Lombards, and was later an estate of land held on condition of feudal service for the Trinci family. It was occupied by papal troops in the 15th century, and thenceforth, it was a papal town until the unification of Italy in 1860.

    2. Cascia was the home of Saint Rita, who was born in the nearby commune of Roccaporena in 1381; she also died there in 1457. After her dedication in 1900, a large shrine was built in Cascia, which is still an important place of pilgrimage, and the house where she was born may still be visited.

    Surprise of her life

    My sister is a true believer of Saint Rita . Her dream was to cone to Italy and visit Saint Rita’s hometown Cascia. I planned our trip yo Italy and omitted telling her that Saint Rita was part of the plan . Although she expressed her wish , I ignored it and told her the plans were made . She only found out that we were actually visiting Saint Rita when she got in the Limousine and Mr. Domdnico announced our destination. She burst out crying from her joy . It was a dream come true for her and we were all very happy for her . The ride was very comfortable, Mr. Domenico was such a gentleman, he made sure we were comfortable . The road to Cascia is very picturesque and beautiful. It had some curbs because of the mountainous terrain but our driver was very experienced and handled the drive with ease. We stopped off at the souvenir shop and bought some rosaries etc. we visited the Saint Rita church then we drove to Rocca Porena and visited her house as well as the small chapel. Our experience was very memorable and we will cherish those moments forever . We are very grateful to Mr. Domdnico because he was very patient with us and he gave us as much time as we needed to take pictures etc. we definitely recommend this trip to those who have faith in Saint Rita as well as Jesus Christ. thanks! Tania

    Response from the operator: Thank you, Miss Tania! Your feedback is important to us. We are so happy to hear you had such a memorable experience on this day trip. Hope to see you again soon. Many blessings to you both! Julia

    Cascia and Roccaporena from Rome: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Cascia and Roccaporena from Rome cost?

    +

    Prices start at $790 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 Cascia and Roccaporena 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 Cascia and Roccaporena from Rome worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 46 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 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 Cascia and Roccaporena 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 Cascia and Roccaporena 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 Cascia and Roccaporena from Rome?

    +

    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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Cascia and Roccaporena 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 Pizza & Gelato Class with Wine by Cooking Italy, Rome [4in1] Pasta Making_Tiramisù_Wine Tasting_Secret Cellar, Rome Pasta and Tiramisu Class: Ravioli, Fettuccine & 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.
