Tips for visiting Assisi
- Dress modestly for the basilica, with covered shoulders and knees.
- The town is steep. Wear good shoes and use the car parks below the walls.
- Come early or stay overnight: the day-trip crowds leave in the evening and the town is quiet.
- The Calendimaggio spring festival fills the town with costumes and music.
