One of the top pilgrimage destinations in Italy, the town of San Giovanni Rotondo was home to the priest Padre Pio, canonized in 2002. Faithful from around the world flock to the town to honor its most famous resident, paying homage in the Sanctuary of Saint Pio of Pietrelcina and Santa Maria delle Grazie, where the saint is buried.
San Giovani Rotondo: great tour and great tour guide!
Francesco (tour guide) and Luigi (driver) were great! The round trip was enjoyable and punctuated by a beautiful and varied landscape from mountains to vineyards. Francesco was very knowledgeable and knew his way all around San Giovani Rotundo. We especially liked that he asked us what was on our list of things to see. A great experience!
Filippo was an excellent guide and companion. He made sure we are relaxed and looked after. Filippo exceeded our expectations and I would highly recommend his services.
It was my dream to one day visit San Giovanni Rotondo, to see Padre Pio, to visit his shrine, to see his cell, and to see the hospital he built.
The Private Day Trip to San Giovanni Rotondo with Filippo made that happen! From the time the booking was made, Filippo had excellent communication with all my questions regarding the trip, since we had to be back on the cruise ship in Naples at a certain time. This was Filippo’s first time to drive a family from a cruise ship to San Giovanni Rotondo. Since we were under time constraints, we made sure we were one of the first ones off the ship. Filippo drove us to San Giovanni Rotondo and dropped us off by the shrine. He fetched us when we were finished, and brought us back to the port on time!
Thank you, Filippo for being a very professional, nice and honest person to work with! But, most especially, for making my dream in visiting Padre Pio come true!
I would highly recommend this trip!
