This is a phenomenal tour. You will learn the ins and outs of this beautiful borgo. The guide has an excellent command of English and is able to provide nearly 2,000 years of history relating from the early Roman times where they stored a special fish sauce, to Napoleon's conquest in 1806, to the modern development of tourism in the area. You will see up close ancient ruins from the early mountain dwellers along with charming walks through narrow village streets. This was well worth the money. We loved learning about this charming village.
Ivana was simply fabulous - she made the tour so informative. Don’t have enough space to say how great she was!!!!!
Had a great day walking up to Christ the Redeemer Maratea. Cristian was an excellent guide. He met me at my accommodation and we continued a walking tour to the statue. The day was so amazing and a lot of fun😀
