Visit one of the most famous churches of Italy with an official guide. Learn the importance of the Basilica di San Francesco, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The Basilica of Saint Francis in Assisi is a treasure that shows its splendor from the square in which it is located. Its spiritual and cultural value makes this building one of the most visited UNESCO monuments in the world. It not only houses the remains of Saint Francis, who was born in Assisi, founded the order, died and wanted to be buried there. It is also a gigantic book of images that narrate his life, the philosophy that inspired him and the greatness of his ideals. Scenes from the Old and New Testaments set in Italian cities 800 years ago were also made. Thus we see medieval knights and ladies at the feet of Christ on the Cross or the Last Supper celebrated around a table with plates, glasses, knives and jugs for water and wine. Beautiful women with light skin and golden hair who wear silk dresses and veils. A true “illustrated book” that our guide will help you decipher.

This unforgettable excursion will give you the chance to leave the beaten path and take an inside look at Francis' real way of life. He took Jesus' message of simplicity and non-materialism to heart and challenged the decadence of the Roman Church. It will be an authentic experience for those travelers who are not in a hurry and have time to listen to the silence.

Sault Ste Marie's history has always revolved around the rapids. The story of industry, life, and labour in this city begins with the whitefish, moves on to the fur trading empires, the industrial giant created by Francis Clergue, and the canals that are the lifeblood of commerce on the Great Lakes today. The story follows the struggles of the working classes as he builds the canal, and later, adapts to industrial mechanization. It ends with the modern day output of steel, and the end of the twelve hour day. Follow along as we take you through the history of life and labour in Sault Ste Marie, using old photographs and paintings to see the Sault through the eyes of people who came before.

Assisi is the city of Saints, Saint Francis and Saint Clare, and is the symbol of a message of peace to breathe at every step of its beautiful streets. Assisi is an Umbrian jewel in the province of Perugia that lies gently on the slopes of Mount Subasio. From here St. Francis started to try to change the Church as an institution and, as Giosuè Carducci described it, “Assisi is a great beautiful thing, country, city and sanctuary” to be bewitched by. Assisi, with its historic center and its symbolic monuments, became a UNESCO site in 2000 because it is considered a rare example of historical continuity between the city, its cultural landscape and the entire territorial system.
