ASSISI, PERUGIA, CORTONA

Assisi is the birthplace of Catholicism’s most venerated saints and patron saints of Italy, Saint Francis of Assisi and Saint Catherine of Siena, Assisi, Italy is a town with religion deeply intertwined in its essence. Visitors shouldn’t be surprised to see monks in long brown robes roaming the streets or bands of pilgrims walking the country roads surrounding the town. If you wish to spend a sweet day with the family, we suggest that you head towards San Sisto on the outskirts of Perugia and spend some time in the Perugina School of Chocolate. Cortona is a wonderful city of Etruscan origin rendered famous all over the world by the best seller “Under the Tuscan Sun” by Frances Mayes which later also became a film. We will re-live every single scene of the film. We will visit one of the most important Etruscan museums in Tuscany and savour an extra virgin olive oil.
