Guided Tour of Assisi. Francesco, Chiara and Carlo Acutis
Things to know
About the Activity
Why come to Assisi? Because Assisi is pure spirituality. Saint Francis and Saint Clare made it famous 800 years ago and in modern times Blessed Carlo Acutis chose it as the “eternal home” for their mortal remains. Because Assisi is a box of surprises for those who love Art. The beauty of its monuments is complemented by the tranquility that is breathed in its streets. Assisi is a town immersed in the green of its olive trees and the harmony of its landscape. For its Spirituality, Art, Beauty and Nature you will not be able to stop coming to Assisi.2 hours 30 minutes
