Fun way to see the city!

5.00Super fun way to see Matera and get some history. We had done a walking tour earlier in day and I was afraid it was going to be same thing. It was not. It built on the other tour. This tour stopped at a recreated cave house and the miniature museum as well as great viewpoints and church of St. Peter. It rained on our evening tour but it was still fun.
Absolutely to do!

Matera….with a bum knee

5.00I planned our vacation to Matera before I knew about my knee surgery. Needless to say, Matera has very challenging terrain with countless steps and slippery hills. I opted for the longer Apetour (tuk-tuk). Francesco was amazing. He took us to the city’s highlights and gave us the opportunity to visit this wonderful city that I would not have been able to enjoy. He was both a pleasure to be with and very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend him to any person visiting Matera!
Magical Matera

5.00Francesco our driver was fantastic. Very personable and informative. He took us all around Matera on a fabulous tour. It’s was brilliant. Gave us a much better understanding of the history of the area and the challenges the people faced, plus the darker recent side of the town after it was abandoned, and prior to it becoming a UNESCO site.
Excellent tour around Matera

5.00Firstly, Francesco was extremely accommodating! We arrived over an hour late due to unforeseen road closures, and he worked with me to reschedule later in the day. The tour is fantastic. Our guide shared the rich history of Matera and brought us to beautiful spots. Truly a unique experience. Definitely the way to see Matera if you don’t have much time, as was our case with a baby.
