Exceptional! This is a MUST DO, top notch experience, for the REAL FOODIES, when in Matera. It is worth every penny! Dora met us at our hotel ushering us through the local market and sharing the rich history of Matera with our intimate group of 3. Our final destination was a beautiful chef’s table restaurant in the Sassi which was phenomenal.
