Pilgrims and Rebels Self Guided Tour of Assisi
Assisi
About
A wealthy young man renouces his wealth in a public square, a teenage girl escapes through a door of the dead by moonlight, and a cycling champion hides forged documents in his bicycle frame. This self-guided audio walking tour of Assisi traces these stories through the actual streets where they happened.
The tour covers about 3km, mostly downhill, with stories at every stop from a Roman amphitheater buried under medieval houses to the internet-age saint buried in his jeans and sneakers. Start whenever you like, pause for truffle pasta or shopping, and pick up right where you left off. This walking tour allows you to discover the city and ends conveniently at the Basilica of Saint Francis ...
