Wonderful experience with Pasquale!
Excellent and informative tour with Pasquale! Shared his 23 years of giving tours and his great knowledge about Matera. One note to mobility impaired: be aware of the bus schedule if you’re unable to walk back to the top…it can be a long wait.

Nice Walking Tour of Matera.
We had a good introduction to the town of Matera, including it’s history and culture, and of course learned the history of the caves. One note is that we got rescheduled several times after being confirmed which was a pain in the neck. We did eventually get a connected with a very nice guide but there was a lot of back and forth at the last minute.

2 hours with very informative guide. Lots of steps to walk so not appropriate if you can’t do that. Loved Matera experience!

Good historical detail
Lots of good historical details. Visit to one of the original cave dwellings was very interesting. Old verses new, rich verses poor, story as old as time.

Julia is a a superb private guide
Julia our tour guide was really great and took her time. We had somebody in our group who has a heart condition and she went slowly and at our pace….she even organized a tuk tuk to bring us back up…really to recommend
