Overview

Discover a world built out of stone in Matera, one of the world's oldest cities still inhabited. Explore Sassi di Matera, a fascinating maze of culture and history made up of rock-hewn chapels and ancient cave homes.

Alberobello, a charming town in the Puglia region of southern Italy, is world-renowned for its unique Trulli—traditional dry-stone dwellings with conical roofs. These iconic structures, concentrated in the Trulli di Alberobello – World Heritage Site, represent an exceptional example of vernacular architecture and have earned the town a place on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1996.

Your journey begins with Matera, capturing breathtaking views over the Sassi districts and strolling the atmospheric alleys.
Then drive to Alberobello for the trulli houses of Rione Monti and Aia Piccola. Your driver allows flexibility for ideal lighting at each location before returning to Lecce.

Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
