This would have to be one of the best tours I’ve ever done!! For anyone who wants to see St Rita’s birth and resting place they must book this tour as it was the easiest and most enjoyable way to get there. With the help of Gianluca and Edda, who made sure we got to see everything we wanted in Cascia, we had the most incredible day. Their flexibility, patience and positive attitude were the absolute highlight of the trip, we can’t thank them enough for everything they did! 100/10 experience!

We had been traveling in EUROPE since September 12 and had several tours guides. But nothing as this one. The knowledge, kindness and the extra mileage attitude during the whole day that the guide Michela and Luca the driver had was wonderful. It really exceeded our expectations. I will always will keep 10/10/22 in my heart because I was able to go to Cassia but also this two guides Michela and Luca made so special.

The best experience we had in Italy. Excellent tour led by our guides ( Fabi and Gian Lucca). Thanks to our guides for providing us with a beautiful tour of Cascia and Assisi. I highly recommend. 10 stars
