Would it be feasible to travel to other cities while I'm there?

Answer

Absolutely, yes!

We would be delighted to help you plan your trip and hope you all get to come out for more than just our wedding. :)

Question

Should I rent a car?

Answer

It's not necessary, but very convenient. In the actual old town of Assisi, only its residents are allowed driving permits. If you choose to stay in a villa just outside the city but come into town to meet people, dine, site see, you will have to park at the base of the town just outside it's old walls. Fear not! It's only a few short minutes (and steep hills) to the main piazza. Renting a car is recommended for families, anyone wanting to check out places nearby, anyone planning on going cross-island (meaning over the mountains), anyone staying for a longer period of time and flying in and out of the same airport.

Question

What's the WiFi Situation Like?

Answer

Everyone has WiFi. Any cafe, AirBNB, and hotel. If you're on a high-speed train, you will also have WiFi. If you are a T-Mobile or Sprint customer, you will have free roaming, texting, and unlimited 2G data. It's slow, but it gets the job done. This is also great if you rent a car as you will always have google maps to navigate you.
