Word of mouth

What travellers say

Safety

Is Assisi safe?

Assisi is generally safe. Take care on steep slopes, polished stone, heat and crowded basilica approaches; respect religious spaces and call 112.

Steep streets

Allow extra time for slopes and stairs, and use the flatter approach where possible.

ZTL access

Much of the historic centre restricts vehicles; park outside and walk or use transit.

Church visits

Dress respectfully, follow quiet rules and keep belongings secure in crowds.
