Assisi, a small Umbrian town in central Italy, is best known as the birthplace of St. Francis – patron saint of Italy, founder of the Franciscan order, and one of the most popular Catholic saints in history. Assisi’s main attraction is the 13th-century Basilica of St. Francis which contains the sacred relics of Francis and beautiful frescoes of his life. And there are at least seven other churches well worth visiting for their history, beauty, and connection with Francis or his friend Clare. The Assisi Tour allows you to winding medieval streets and sacred shrines, has been a major Catholic pilgrimage destination for centuries and is today one of the most popular tourist destinations in Italy. Although the town has only about 26,000 inhabitants, 4 to 5 million visitors throng the small town each year. As would be expected, the city has become a bit “touristy” in the process – but its many great sites make it very much worth seeing nevertheless.The tour usually starts at 7:00 am.
