The immaculate medieval hill town of Assisi has always been a vortex of beauty and spirituality. Home to Italy's patron saint, St. Francis, this town maintains frescoes of Giotto and Cimabue. You meander through the Basilica, quaint chapels, along narrow streets filled with artisan shops and inside fine art galleries. Then you drive among olive groves dotted by fields of sunflowers.
An authentic Umbrian Lunch with an unparalleled vista is the essential mid-day break during your visit to this captivating town. You spend the day painting an Umbrian picture, with Assisi the focus. You are delivered to Florence filled with the spirit of Umbria nad St. Francis.
