an alternative ride to the usual walking tour - Great van ride. To do after a walk through the Sassi in my opinion. I recommend it to do in addition to the usual guided tour

Wonderful overview tour of Matera - Today (29.9.2025) we took a tour of Matera with Sassi Travel and stopped at some places to visit it briefly. We visited the old town both from the “inside” and from the opposite side. We can only recommend this agency.

Matera in the cool of August! - Dear Mr. Carlo, who immediately put us at ease, picking us up at the hotel and taking us back after the tour, with a nice comfortable and cool Van, a relaxed guide and timely explanations to the addition of the audio guide. It took us beyond the canonical places, even to places outside the box. Lesser known but beautiful rock churches, rich in history and lived life. Recommended without any doubt!

Must do Tour. - This is a fabulous tour which takes you to parts of Matera which you can’t visit on foot. The cave church on the other side of the Matera was amazing. Our driver was a friendly kind man.
