Tour of Assisi and Cortona: a land of history and religion
A day on the border between Umbria and Tuscany, where every corner is brimming with beauty
Between Assisi and Cortona, there are beautiful sights to see everywhere you look. Charming discoveries await around every corner: unspoilt nature, churches and villages that look like scenes from a painting. With your private driver, set off from Florence for Assisi, the ultimate sanctuary of spirituality. Discover the grandeur of the Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi, one of the most important pilgrimage sites in the world. Be entranced by the architecture and the richly decorated interior, where Giotto's frescoes tell the saint's life story. Then visit the Basilica of Saint Clare, which houses several precious relics. After a stroll through the historic centre, continue towards Cortona, the location of several world-famous Italian films, including "Life is Beautiful" by Roberto Benigni. Venture into the maze of narrow streets and stairways, admiring the mediaeval Palazzo Comunale, Palazzo del Capitano del Popolo, and the Cathedral. An immersive experience to get a privileged glimpse of a stunning setting.
