Ways to save
- Visit Assisi in the shoulder seasons (April-May or September-October) to save on accommodation; hotel rates can be 20-30% lower than peak summer (July-August) when a double room might be 100-150u20ac/night.
- Opt for a small B&B or guesthouse outside the main walls of Assisi for lower prices; you can find rooms for 50-80u20ac/night compared to 90-130u20ac/night inside the historic center.
- Eat at a 'trattoria' or 'osteria' for authentic, more affordable local food; a typical pasta dish might cost 8-12u20ac, versus 15-25u20ac at more tourist-focused restaurants.
- Shop at local markets for fresh produce, cheese, and bread to make your own sandwiches or picnics; a simple lunch can cost 5-7u20ac compared to 15-20u20ac for a sit-down meal.
- Walk everywhere within Assisi's historic center to save on taxis or local buses; the town is compact and easily navigable on foot, saving you bus tickets (1.50u20ac per ride) or taxi fares (10-15u20ac within town).
- Take advantage of free attractions like exploring the Basilica of Saint Francis (donations encouraged but entry is free) and wandering the charming medieval streets.
- If arriving by train at Assisi-Santa Maria degli Angeli, take the local bus (Line C) up to the historic center for 1.50u20ac, rather than a taxi which could cost 10-15u20ac.
