  Angeli, a bus ride below the old town. Both towns by train in one day is impractical, hence the tours.

  Italian national holiday from 2026.
- St Patrick's Well, Orvieto: about 53 m deep, 248 steps on a double spiral, built 1527-1537. Full ticket EUR 6 (orvietoviva.com).

## Corrections to claims found elsewhere

- 'Basilica entrance included' on a tour listing is not a saving: entry to the Basilica of St Francis is free.
- One listing calls the Santa Maria degli Angeli basilica 9th-century; the large basilica is 16th-17th century and
  shelters the much older Porziuncola chapel.
- On most Assisi + Orvieto combos the Orvieto stop is short (about 1 to 1.5 hours).
