Visit at your own pace - It was a pretty complete tour, we really enjoyed being able to go at our own pace and take our time. To put a but, it would include interesting data (or curiosities). That would make it even more entertaining.

Fantastic easy option, well done, highly recommend - This was absolutely fantastic. I downloaded it really easily and was able to get around town at my leisure, and taking all the major sites. It gave me a really good guide to the city, and I was able to go back to a couple of of theareas that really interested me. There is enough information to wet my appetite but not too much to be overwhelming.

Excellent self guided audio tour of Matera's Sassi district - We were attracted to this self guided audio tour of Matera and it more than met our hopes. We liked that it allowed us to start at our own time, go at our own pace and even choose the order to visit the sites. We did however stick to the suggested route. The instructions for using the online link are clear and very easy to follow with examples which are helpful. There is good information provided, both written and verbal, for each site along the route. We started early because of the high temperatures in Matera and completed the tour in 4 hours with a coffee stop along the way. We would highly recommend Matteo's audio guided tour and look forward to using these again in other Italian towns and cities.

A solid self-tour of Matera - As a self-guided tour, the information presented about Matera was great. We were able to get insight about many things that there wouldn't be time for in a guided tour. The voice used was decent, but at times seemed a bit "AI", although maybe the host speaks this way? I'm partially disabled, so being able to set our own pace is very important. Having the opportunity to take a few days to finish was great! The flip-side, though, is why it's not a 5 star review for me. I know Matera is challenging, but some warning about routes having lots of steps would be really helpful for people like me. Thank you for a good tour, and all the information about Matera!

Great way to explore the town on your own schedule and pace - It would have been nice to summarize all the tickets involved in the tour just so we could plan. Otherwise a great way to explore the town on your own terms.

A fiasco - It is impossible to download the link. It's not true that they pick you up. A fiasco, silver thrown away and I wasn't the only one
