Finally Matera! - We had an exceptional guide: Simone who made us understand what it was to live in the stones and how important it is now to stay in Matera to enhance this heritage. An experience that I recommend, really thanks to Simone for answering our questions

A beautiful day - I had booked for me and my wife, what was supposed to be a group tour for 12 people. When we showed up at the start it was just us and the organization, instead of canceling it or moving on to another tour, confirmed the exit, so I paid for a private tour for the price of a group tour (applause for the seriousness to the organization). What about the guide...... we happened, and could not go better, "The Professor" an exquisite person but above all, of an exaggerated culture, which did not disdain some deviation of the path at our request. I forgot, the tour was supposed to last three hours but it lasted almost four wonderful hours. I don't say anything about Matera, I'll let you discover the wonder. Thanks Professor and thanks to the organization of Passi tra i Sassi

Simone , an engaging guide - The guide Simone transported us throughout the tour to the beauty of Matera. Engaging and precise tour in the story of the city. Simone very knowledgeable, but above all a local person who has experienced firsthand all the transformations of the city.
