What To Expect
Bari
Departure from Piazza Eroi del Mare in Bari driving to Matera. The order of the visits in Matera and Alberobello could be reversed.
Matera
Matera, Basilicata's jewel, may be the world's third-longest continuously inhabited human settlement. Natural caves in the tufa limestone, exposed as the Gravina cut its gorge, attracted the first inhabitants perhaps 7000 years ago. More elaborate structures were built atop them. Today, looking across the gorge to Matera’s huddled sassi (cave dwellings) it seems you've been transported back to the ancient Holy Land.

5.00Enchanting, and dream like. A must see when you’re in Bari. You can get lost in the city and it’s amazing. The history is felt in every corner you turn. In addition, there are many shops and restaurants to explore as well as beautiful photo backdrops!

5.00The guided tour was amazing of Matera and Alberobello. To take a tour without a guide loses so much. This company does a great job.

5.00Ohi Dorotea, ciao! I chose this tour based on the positive reviews, and it met my expectations and even exceeded them. I was passing through Puglia, but I knew that Matera was exactly the fairytale place I had dreamed of in Italy. And with an honest price, I also discovered Alberobello, which is absolutely beautiful. I highly recommend it!
Unmissable day trip!

5.00Welcome in front of a new and clean mini van, in which we settled for a scenic trip along the Bari seafront, which took us to Alberobello. Extremely professional, smiling and above all helpful guide. She took care of my husband, who after an operation still has difficulty walking, finding the right balance with the rest of the group. In Matera they offered us an even better service at no additional cost, a gesture that we greatly appreciated! A very special attention to the participants. Great price!
Top!

5.00I returned to Puglia for the second time and, based on the great reviews, I chose this agency to visit Alberobello and Matera in one day. That's right! The first time I had relied on public transport, taking a whole day to hastily and badly visit only one city. This time, however, I could enjoy both destinations in total relaxation, with impeccable organization. If I were to return to Bari, I would rely on them again without hesitation. Thanks Luca for the professionalism and passion!
Super!
