An excellent introduction to the Sassi of Matera - Tour well led by Simone, which made it very interesting, interspersing historical hints to aspects of costume. Two hours and more that give a very good idea of history and life in the stones.

An excellent introduction to the history of Matera - The tour was an excellent introduction to the history of Matera: the right balance between historical information and cultural context, useful to fully appreciate the archaeological part and understand the evolution of the city over time. Our guide, Simone, was fantastic: prepared, engaging and able to keep the attention and curiosity of the group alive, even under a really intense sun! His advice on where to eat is also highly appreciated: an authentic place, far from the usual tourist traps. Thanks again for this wonderful experience! Greetings to Simone from Costa Rica!

Highly recommended - The walking tour obviously a little tiring (with 30 degrees) but also very feasible for me who have a knee problem. We were accompanied by Beppe, a trained person who described exhaustively but also proudly the contents of the story of the incredible city of Matera. At times it gave us goose bumps.... Highly recommended.
