Embark on a memorable one-day journey from Rome into the heart of Umbria. In just a day, you’ll experience Assisi’s sacred treasures and the miracles of Cascia, with every moment rich in history and inspiration.
Join us on a profound pilgrimage as we honor the legacies of Saint Francis of Assisi, Carlo Acutis, and Saint Rita of Cascia, while immersing yourself in the region’s artistic and spiritual heritage. In Assisi, you will explore some of Christianity’s most revered sites:
The Basilica of Saint Francis – A UNESCO World Heritage Site, adorned with Giotto’s magnificent frescoes that vividly narrate the life of the saint and mark a turning point in Western art.
The Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore – Here rests the body of Blessed Carlo Acutis, the young modern witness of faith who inspired millions through his devotion and love for the Eucharist.
The Cathedral of San Rufino – A deeply significant church in Assisi, home to important relics and closely connected to the life of St. Francis. (This stop can be included or skipped according to your preference.)
The Basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli – Shelter to the Porziuncola, the humble chapel where the Franciscan Order was born.
This special tour is dedicated to St. Francis, especially meaningful during this year of devotion honoring his legacy. The Journey Through Umbria
The drive from Rome through Umbria—toward Cascia and Assisi—is simply magnificent. Rolling hills, dramatic landscapes, and towering trees rise like natural Gothic spires, almost as if they are reaching upward in silent worship. The scenery itself becomes part of the pilgrimage.
