Visit to the child-friendly stones. - Having a 6-year-old we liked the idea of discovering Matera through this experience that made our visit more child-friendly. It was really nice and interesting for us adults too. Sara, the guide, was really very empathetic, good, and friendly.

Matera suitable for children - Looking for an experience that could make our children of 4 and 7 years appreciate Matera, we came across this fantastic idea: a treasure hunt all for them (and a little 'even for parents, come on!) To accompany us to discover this wonder of Italy was Sara, who immediately conquered the children and managed to keep their interest high throughout the visit, which lasted 2.5 hours! Super interesting explanations also for us adults and a very special final treasure! We can only recommend this experience and thank Sara again for her patience, passion and laughter! Sara, Ivan, Gabri and Tommy

Treasure hunt for children in the Sassi of Matera - We participated in the treasure hunt in Matera with the guide Sara and it was a fantastic experience for both our children and us adults! Sara with her sympathy and her professionalism has managed to actively involve children and adults with games and riddles, explaining at the same time with simple words and age-appropriate the history of Matera and its Sassi. It was a truly engaging and fun visit and with a very welcome final surprise! Absolutely recommended and congratulations on the organization!
