The itinerary

Enjoy a walking tour of the city center led by an expert local guide who will lead you through ancient streets and breathtaking palaces before arriving at the famed Basilica of St. Francis.

Before returning to Rome, you will stop in another city in Umbria, either Perugia or Orvieto, to learn more about the history and local culture of this region. Spend a day discovering the captivating Umbria region and do not be surprised if you fall in love along the way!
