Private Tour of Monte Sant'Angelo
Private Tour Details
After meeting your guide at the indicated time in Via Reale Basilica, the most important street in the town, you'll begin your private tour of Monte Sant'Angelo.
Your first stop will be exploring the historic neighbourhood of Junno, where you'll be enchanted by the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore, which dates back to the 11th century. Head inside to admire the spectacular Byzantine-style frescos.
You'll then make your way to the Sanctuary of Monte Sant'Angelo, which has been one of Italy's most important pilgrimage destinations since the Middle Ages. Discover the history of this shrine, the oldest in Western Europe dedicated to the archangel Michael, as you marvel at its incredibly well preserved architecture and artwork. Did you know the basilica is built in a cave?
Having explored the famous Sanctuary, you'll delve back into the historic centre of Monte Sant'Angelo, where you'll lose yourself in its labyrinthine streets and discover the local handicrafts in typical shops. Among the stores, the sammecalere stand out, artisans who to this day still carve the stone themselves to create statuettes of St. Michael the Archangel, the patron saint of the town.
We'll end the tour after 2 hours of exploring the great attractions of Monte Sant'Angelo.
