What you'll do

Get away from the crowded streets of Florence and explore the architecture, history, and art of religious sites in regions of Tuscany and Umbria. Our exploratory tours from Florence offer just that, taking you across spectacular landscapes, medieval hilltop towns, and Etruscan ruins.


The day trip will include a visit to Cortona, a quaint hilltop town boasting gothic architectural treasures as well as a romantic ambiance. The views of the surrounding hills and valleys from this town are simply breathtaking. No wonder Cortona became the setting of the famous Hollywood movie, Under the Tuscan Sun. [readmore] Also on our itinerary, is the birthplace of San Francesco (St Francis), Assisi. Like Cortona, Assisi also sits on a hilltop overlooking a picturesque valley surrounded by vineyards. Our professional guide will lead you through its narrow streets and alleys, explaining the history and events that shaped it. We will also drop by the Basilica of San Francesco Assisi displaying frescos of his life and Santa Chiara church. Once the guided walking tour is over, you will have free time to explore a bit on your own.

History Sneak Peek

Assisi, like all of the Tuscan settlements, used to be a municipium of the Roman Empire. Though, after the fall of the empire (before the political situation settled), the town suffered several devastating barbarian invasions.


Regardless, around the 11th century, Assisi experienced an enthusiastic flourishment of the religious spirit. This was mainly due to the rise of the middle class and wealthy merchants. (Saint) Francis was born into this prosperous period. His young life was marked by surplus and luxury. However, after witnessing the suffering of the sick and poor, he committed himself to a life of absolute poverty. His commitment was so unwavering, he inspired many to follow him which led to the establishment of the Franciscan Order.


There is much more to discover and see. If you are interested to explore Tuscany beyond the obvious book our tours from Florence today!
