This excursion was excellent. Alex made it super special from the beginning of the day by bringing breakfast for us. Along the way he explained to us about the different regions and places we were going to visit. Upon arriving in Assisi we went to see the church of Santa Ciara and the church of Santa Maria degli Angeli. The churches are beautiful and full of history. Afterwards we went to visit the church of San Francisco. Here we were able to attend mass and have free time to visit the entire church and take time with God. Alex also gave us free time to go shopping and eat. In the end he did us the favor of taking us to the church of Santa Maria Mayor where the body of Blessed Carlos Acutis is located. The trip was a success thanks to Alex. He explained everything to us as we went, adapted to us and arranged everything for our well-being. Thank you Alex for this special trip, breakfast and water. Very nice detail. During the entire trip we felt super safe. Alex drives very well and knows the roads very well. Grazie mille!

I am an old lady, not good at crowds or steps . I was lucky enough to have Alex Paolini as my driver and he made the experience truly memorable. First we stopped at Santa Maria degli Angeli, which I had never heard of that was much less crowded and truly beautiful. Later we went to a small town, Amelia, Alex provided pizza and gelato for lunch. He must be the kindest man in Rome. He has endless patience and doesn’t mind going slowly. I really recommend him for anyone with mobility problems
