Perugia, the capital of Umbria, is a city of infinite cultural facets, as well as one of the Italian cradles of medieval and Renaissance art.
Together we will be able to explore the Noble Collegio del Cambio and discover the secrets of the Renaissance art of Perugino, one of the most appreciated artistic personalities of his time.
But there is much more on the horizon ... such as the Umbria Jazz festival and the renowned Eurochocolate event.
It will be an exciting experience to explore the secret environments of Rocca Paolina together!

About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- susangI7334AC0 contributionsOne of the best tours I’ve ever had!Maura is one of the best tour guides I have ever had in Italy and since I live here (not far from Assisi) I have done many tours over the years. She is engaging, fun, and concise in delivering a wealth of knowledge and making it interesting and accessible to everyone in our group.Written October 9, 2024
- 79lianed0 contributionsBest Tour Guide Ever!Maura was a fabulous tour guide for both Assisi & nearby Spello! Her knowledge of history & the arts & of course Saint Francis was phenomenal. It was a very educational day but also totally fun as she included interesting & funny stories everywhere we walked. She tailored our day to fit my interests & her energy & enthusiasm made it a perfect tour—even in the rain! I highly recommend Maura & will engage her again in our next trip to Umbria!Written October 9, 2024
- C528ZIcraigc0 contributionsBack in timeVery friendly and informative. Gave me the feeling she was happy to show us around. Assisi is amazing with remarkable history and fantastic viewsWritten September 17, 2024
- 337dwaynel0 contributionsA gem of a tour guide.I couldn’t rate it 6, or I would have. Maura was FANTASTIC! I’ve studied the Catholic Church for years and she was so very engaging and knowledgeable. She knew the local history and church history like the back of her hand, and shared it in a way that will leave a lasting impression. She was very personable, and related well to everyone in our party. If you’re looking for a tour guide while you’re in Assisi, I promise you won’t regret choosing Maura.Written September 17, 2024
- I164NGfernandop0 contributionsUmbría was the Highlight of Italy 2024 tripMaura is the best tour guide you will find. She is responsive, accurate, friendly, and knowledgeable of the Umbria Region. During our summer visit to Italy, she helped make Umbria the highlight of our trip, she delivered above expectations. We visited Perugia, Orvieto and she helped secure wine tasting at the best locations of Umbria. She is also very pleasant to be with, very charming personality and top knowledge to make the historical tour of impact. We had used her services in Assisi last year and Umbria this year; we will use her services again and recommending her to our friends, family, and clients.Written July 11, 2024
- Lovemytravels110 contributionsFabulous Tour and Amazing Tour GuideWe were in Italy for three weeks (visiting Rome, Umbria and Amalfi Coast) and took quite a few tours. We have to say that Maura (our tour guide for Assisi) was by far the best tour guide we had. She is incredibly knowledgeable, interesting and engaging. We learned so much from her, particularly at Basilica of San Francesco. She is very personable and has a great sense of humor. Spending a morning with her in Assisi was delightful. We highly recommend enhancing your Umbria and Assisi experience with a tour by Maura. Next time we visit Umbria, we will book a tour with her to see Perugia.Written May 28, 2024
- Escape011601345050 contributionsWonderful tour, beautiful places!In our first visit to Assisi, my wife and I hired Maura Baldoni to give us a private tour of “Surroundings of Assisi: in the Footsteps of Saint Francis” which included Santa Maria degli Angeli Basilica, San Damiano Church and Eremo delle Carceri. I had read quite a bit about St. Francis before the trip, but still, I learned a lot from Maura. Her story gave us a deeper understanding of the role these (beautiful) places played in the lives of St. Francis and St. Claire. We also learned about Maura, her family, and the Italian culture. The tour started at 9 AM and ended at noon just like she had described. Maura speaks English fluently and we had no problem understanding her. Since we didn’t have a car, she negotiated the taxis for us. If there’s any regret, it is that we forgot to take pictures at San Damiano 😃Otherwise, we enjoyed the tour and would gladly recommend it to others! PS: I found Maura through internet search, and I contacted her by email two months before our trip. I loved her answer when I asked her about the cancellation policy: “There’s no cancellation policy. I trust that you will come.” So simple 😃Written April 21, 2024
- Margaret Lois J0 contributionsSo very good!Maura met me at the Station in Spoleto and asked me what I was interested in. My response was “History and the Culture of the Ordinary”. So off we went to the historical center in her car (I am not a fan of going uphill by foot). The Roman area , the street of artisans, the significant buildings, and the Duomo did not disappoint. Maura’s explanations were spot on in the areas about which I knew, so I welcomed her explanations of what did not know. Her use of questions as well as being fine about my stopping for photographs was much appreciated. Maura is very attentive to one’s particular questions and desires. A magnificent time!Written March 6, 2024
- M9800IXjamies0 contributionsAssisi highlights tour Jan 2024We booked a last minute side trip to Assisi between Florence and Rome stays. Maura had great reviews so we called her and she impromptu tailored a perfect itinerary and arranged for an excellent driver Andrea. He picked us up 2 days later in Florence and drove us to Assisi and stayed with us and our luggage during a 4 hour tour after which he delivered us to Rome. Maura was an energetic and very knowledgeable guide and we had a great day learning about Assisi, St Francis and St Clare. We highly recommend Maura and Andrea.Written January 14, 2024
- carolaw1350 contributionsHighly recommend tour guide!Maura is a wonderful, considerate and very professional tour guide. She made us feel at ease instantly. Maura is extremely knowledgeable and presents pertinent information with humour and grace and passion. We met Maura in October 2022 and we’re so happy to see her again on our return trip in October 2023. I would highly recommend Maura as a guide in Umbria.Written November 8, 2023
- DorothyDC0 contributionsSpectacular Guide!My husband and I have been on a lot of private tours with excellent guides. However, Maura was a cut above them all! She shared her impressive knowledge of Assisi, Civita di Bagnoregio, and Orvieto making the tour fascinating, fun, and transformative! She added suggestions for the best places to eat along with fun cultural information. We had the best time and highly recommend her. She made our stay in the region really special and meaningful and plan on using her for future visits. Maura went above and beyond what you would expect. You won't be disappointed!Written October 30, 2023
- T3461CQmarcias0 contributionsWell Prepared and KnowledgeableMaura was prompt and communicated well about the tour. She came prepared to answer our questions as one of our group had studied extensively about St. Francis. We all learned even more during the couple hours she was with us. It was a good experience overall.Written October 24, 2023

Extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Thoughtful and wants to know how things are going. Highly recommend Maura.Written October 24, 2023
- C7068CNbarbaran0 contributionsAssisi with a personal touch.Maura was a delightful tour guide with much knowledge about Assisi’s past and it’s present. Her English was excellent and much appreciated. We spent three hours starting at the top of Assisi and worked our way down through the lovely neighborhood with very quaint homes. Maura brought us to a family owned ceramic store that is three generations old and my husband and I bought some pieces as a gift to ourselves and a birthday gift to me. Maura also brought us some chocolate candies to share to celebrate my birthday. That was a personal touch much appreciated! We felt Maura was the most engaging tour guide of our entire trip!Written October 24, 2023

Maura guided us on several excursions through Assisi, Perugia, Gubbio, and more during our stay in the area. She is so delightful and knowledgeable! She engaged us and our three young children and shared so many fascinating facts about the places we visited; she really brought history to life and added greatly to the enchantment of these medieval cities. We had such wonderful experiences during our days together. We did not want it to end and were sad to say goodbye, but hope to meet up again next time we are there. We highly recommend Maura--you will learn so many things and feel so fortunate to have her as your guide!

Maura is the best! We so enjoyed our time with her. Friendly, smart and knowledgeable, Maura showed us the city and then regaled us with stories of the town over lunch. I highly recommend spending the day with her. It was a highlight of our trip!!

Maura was a fantastic tour guide. She knows so much about the history of Perugia, brings an enthusiasm to her explanations and is a lovely warm friendly person. We enjoyed our tour so much that we hired her again for a tour of Assisi. Our experience with Maura brought both cities to life in a way we could never have gotten on our own. She is a gem and knows so much about each place yet was never boring. We were fascinated for the entire duration of the tours. She also made great suggestions for lunch and gelato. I felt like we had made a new friend. Don’t hesitate to book with her.

My wife and I had the great pleasure of being given a guided tour of Perugia by Maura yesterday. It was brilliant from start to finish. Maura is so passionate and knowledgeable about Umbrian history and has such a warm, charming personality. It felt like we were in the company of an old friend, even though we had never met her before!
You must book Maura if you are visiting Umbria. You will not be disappointed. Our guided tour of Perugia will live long in our memory.
Brava Maura!
