Amigo Tours · Roma Tiburtina station
A 14-hour coach day from Rome Tiburtina that adds St Francis's Assisi to Civita and Orvieto. Book it only if those three towns matter more to you than time in any one of them.
Three hill towns in one day is a lot, and this tour does not pretend otherwise. Amigo Tours runs a coach from Piazzale della Stazione Tiburtina with a tour leader, usually in English and Spanish. The listed plan is Assisi first (a visit plus free time for lunch), then Civita di Bagnoregio, then Orvieto, and back to Tiburtina 14 hours after leaving. The text on the same listing says Civita comes last, so the order can change on the day.
The price is the draw. About $110 gets you three towns that are hard to link by public transport, and Assisi alone is a two-and-a-half-hour drive from Rome. The cost is time on the ground. The itinerary gives Civita a short visit plus about an hour of free time, and guests report around an hour to cross the bridge, see the village and walk back. One guest found that hard going; another wanted more than an hour and a quarter in Orvieto.
Meals and the entry fees are extra. That means the €5 Civita ticket and any paid sight in Orvieto. The Basilica of St Francis is free to enter, but guests report being turned away on crowded pilgrimage days. The listing warns of significant uphill walking and rules out people with a low level of fitness.
The guide waits under the Roma Tiburtina sign by the bus stop with an Amigo Tours sign. Arrive at least 10 minutes early.
A visit and free time for lunch. Guests report about two and a half hours here, the longest stop of the day.
A short visit and about an hour of free time. Most of it goes on the bridge, up and back.
The cathedral square and the old centre. Guests report a little over an hour.
About two and a half hours on the coach to Tiburtina. The whole day runs about 14 hours.
★★★★★We had an amazing day visiting the 3 cities and learning about their history. The architecture was stunning and people very friendly. Tiziano our guide was extremely knowledgeable and kept us all on point.
★★★★★Fantastic tour with Amigo Tours! Our guide Serena was excellent, very knowledgeable and organized, and Filipo was a great driver. The day ran smoothly with plenty of detail and no unnecessary gift shop stops, which I really appreciated. All three destinations, Assisi, Civita di Bagnoregio, and Orvieto, were beautiful. Just note that the walk into Civita is steep, so it may be challenging for those with mobility issues. Highly recommend this tour!
★★★★★This was a very full day, but well worth it to see three cities. We had a friendly group, and our guide, Tiziano, was wonderful.
★★★★★The tour was great. Definitely worth the money. I highly recommend it to everyone. The guide was very informative. The logistics were very smooth. Roberto was an amazing guide and I would definitely want to go on another tour with him.
