Architecture and archangels. Manicotti and monasteries. Scooters and saints. There is no better place to rejoice in faith and fun than within the scenic and sacred wonder of Italy. This religious tour of Italy brings you closer to the sights of Rome, Florence, and Venice; the saints of Cascia, Assisi, and Padua; and the savory flavors of every pizzeria, osteria, and trattoria along the way. From the cathedrals and catacombs of the Eternal City to the basilicas and bridges of the Floating City, you’ll celebrate the best Italy has to offer. Cherished experiences on this religious tour of Italy include visits to the four major Papal basilicas of Rome and the chance to attend the Papal audience and receive the Papal blessing. With additional opportunities to attend mass in Rome, Cascia, Assisi, and Florence, this faith-based tour of Italy is an unbelievable tour you can believe in.

Escorting tours for more than 20 years
Born, educated and raised in Genoa, northern Italy, after my classical studies I followed my passion for languages. The idea was always to travel and learn from other cultures. Becoming a Tour Director was a natural consequence of all my passions. I can now say that the Globus Family of Brands have represented a very important part of my life, and still are like a family for me. My role is giving and receiving, every day is a different day, but what I can say is that meeting people is the most fascinating part of it. Unforgettable memories leave a sign!
