🚌 Departure from Rome
📍Departure depends on your ticket. Rome's main international airport is Fiumicino (Leonardo da Vinci), but always confirm the exact airport and terminal on your booking. Arrive early for check-in and security, especially in high season.
🚇From central Rome, the airport rail link from Roma Termini is the simplest option, with regional trains, airport coaches and taxis as alternatives. Check which airport your flight uses first, since access differs between Rome's airports.
⏰Flights with a stopover run on selected days and times depending on the season and the airline. Check the departure times shown when you book, and compare them in the table on the page.

Practical tips

💡
Check the departure airport

Rome has several gateways and two railway stations people often mix up, Termini and Tiburtina. Read your ticket carefully to confirm the exact departure airport before you leave, so you never end up in the wrong place.

💡
Book early, avoid last-minute fares

Cheaper fares are released early and sell out first, especially in high season. Booking well ahead protects you from paying a premium at the last minute when a better-value option was available days earlier.

💡
Compare before you pay

Use the comparison table on the page to weigh each option on time, price and frequency. A flight with a stopover is not always the smartest choice, so check every mode shown before you confirm your booking.

💡
Leave margin at the connection

With a stopover, a delay on the first flight can affect the next one. Keep your boarding passes handy, follow the airport screens and avoid scheduling anything important soon after your planned arrival.

💡
Check baggage rules and keep your confirmation

Cabin and hold baggage allowances differ between airlines and fares. Check them before booking, and keep your instant confirmation on your phone, so check-in and any questions at the airport go smoothly.

The journey experience

On the map, Rome to Assisi is a short hop, but the option listed here is a flight with a stopover, so it helps to know exactly what you are choosing. Rather than guessing between train, coach, ferry or flight, compare each option side by side on the booking page. Times, price ranges and frequency sit in one clear table, so you can decide quickly.

A flight with a stopover suits travellers who want a single booking for the whole journey. You usually check in once, your luggage is often tagged through to the final airport, and you avoid juggling several tickets. Comfort is that of a standard airline cabin. The connection happens at an intermediate airport, so leave yourself some margin. Schedules change with the season and the airline.

Before you pay, check which airport the ticket leaves from. Rome has more than one gateway, and it is easy to head to the wrong one. Book ahead in high season, when the cheapest fares go first and last-minute prices climb. Compare the other options on the page, then book online with instant confirmation. Your tickets arrive straight in your inbox, so you can travel with peace of mind.

What to do in Assisi?

Local experiences, must-see sights and activities selected for you

MUST-SEE
⛪
Basilica of San Francesco
UNESCO-listed double basilica holding St Francis's tomb and Giotto and Cimabue frescoes. Entry is free, but modest dress is required (covered shoulders and knees). Arrive at 8:30 to avoid tour groups, and check the Mass schedule, as visits are restricted during services. Allow at least 90 minutes.
🏛️
Piazza del Comune and Roman Temple
The medieval heart of Assisi, where the 1st-century Temple of Minerva stands, now a church. Entry is free. Sit on the fountain steps at golden hour for the best atmosphere, and pick up a coffee at one of the surrounding cafés, where a espresso costs about 1.50€ at the counter.
🎨
Basilica of Santa Chiara
Pink-and-white striped Gothic basilica housing the Byzantine crucifix that spoke to St Francis, and the tomb of St Clare. Free entry. The square in front offers one of the best panoramas over the Umbrian valley, ideal for sunset. Closed to visitors around midday, so plan your timing.
🏰
Rocca Maggiore Fortress Views
Hilltop fortress dominating the town, with towers, tunnels and 360° views over Assisi and the Spoleto valley. Tickets cost around 8€. Walk up from Piazza del Comune in 15 minutes via steep lanes. Go early morning or late afternoon for softer light and fewer visitors.
🍝
Umbrian Cuisine in a Trattoria
Try strangozzi with truffle, torta al testo flatbread and local Sagrantino wine. Skip restaurants on the main squares and head to side streets like Via Portica or Via Fontebella. A full meal costs roughly 25 to 35€ per person. Book dinner ahead in high season.
🌳
Hike to Eremo delle Carceri
Peaceful hermitage on Monte Subasio where St Francis retreated to pray, set in an ancient holm oak forest. Free entry. Walk up from Porta Cappuccini in about 1 hour 15 minutes, or drive 4 km. Bring water and arrive before 10:00 for quiet.
⛪
Basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli
Huge basilica in the valley enclosing the tiny Porziuncola chapel, where Franciscan life began, and the Rose Garden with thornless roses. Free entry. Reach it by regular local bus from Assisi for about 2€, or by train to the nearby station.
🌅
Sunset Walk to San Damiano
Walk down through olive groves from Porta Nuova to the small convent of San Damiano, where St Francis heard his calling. Donation-based entry. The 20-minute path is quiet, with sweeping views. Return uphill takes about 30 minutes, so carry water.

How long to visit Assisi?

1 to 2 days

Allow 1 full day to see the essentials: the Basilica of San Francesco with Giotto's frescoes, the Basilica of Santa Chiara, the Rocca Maggiore and the historic centre. Two days let you add the Basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli, the Eremo delle Carceri and Mount Subasio walks at a slower pace. Stay overnight if you can: once the day-trippers leave in the late afternoon, the town is calm and atmospheric.
