Beautiful both tours I highly recommend doing them - Beautiful tour in the historic center and in the heart of Matera its Sassi between history and popular culture, very nice tour even in the Murgia shame that it was very cold and blew an incredible wind.

Absolutely not to be missed - Tour on the Murgia at sunset beautiful. Really recommended, but added value was our guide Federico. Extremely prepared, professional, friendly guide who can convey how much he loves the territory. For him 10 stars Silvia, Laura and Giusy from Pisa

Beautiful sunset tour - I thought this tour was well worth the time. We drove with our guide, Anita who is an expert in history and facts of Matera and shared some of this with us as we drove to the mesa/plateau that overlooks the Sassi and the canyon. We had just enough time to see and understand what she was describing, as well as get done amazing sunset fotos. Blessings on the Driver, who drive into the sun to get us there! With Snita's history and story telling, one starts to get a "glimpse" of what it might be like to live in the Sassi. Fantastic tour. Ringrazi Anita and driver!

Great tour - Great tour. The guide Michele is a local and taught me about the history of Matera. He pointed out the local plants that thrives here. He also showed us two rock churches with beautiful frescoes and their history. The view of Matera from the park is magical.
