Great tour overall! Our guide Francesco was extremely knowledgeable about Matera and it's history. He kept the tour fun and informative. We had plenty of opportunities for photos and were able to look around at particular stops. He also recommend great museums, churches and restaurants for us to explore after the tour. 10/10 would recommend!

Great tour
We booked this tour for our first day so that we could see the best areas quickly. We were then able to revisit where we wished, the guide was excellent with good knowledge and English. We were collected at our hotel and the correspondence between ourselves prior to our visit to Matera was excellent. Highly recommend.

Private Matera tour
Stella was an awesome guide. Welcoming and friendly when we met. Spoke good English. Most importantly her knowledge and passion for Matera and the Sassi was impressive. As a result we learned fascinating facts and insights we would otherwise not have learned. The tour was well paced especially given the extreme heat. Stella’s recommendation for lunch was perfect and we also enjoyed checking out the old water system she recommended we see. We highly recommend this tour. Thanks Stella for an interesting and insightful day 👍🏻

A great way to see more of stunning Matera
This was great fun and a fab way to get to see more of beautiful Matera. We were short for time and knew we would be limited in how much we could see on foot so booked the tuk-tuk and saw so much more. Our driver was great, and took us to a number of the view points, as well as to a cave house. It was around 50 mins long and we saw way more than we could have covered on foot in the timescale.

Breathtaking views and impeccable guides with Dolomiti Discovery
A fun, dynamic, and perfectly organized experience. During the quad bike excursion with Dolomiti Discovery, there is no shortage of adrenaline, but it goes hand in hand with great attention to safety: when Vincenzo explains the rules, there is absolute silence and maximum attention!We did the route guided by Riccardo, who was always vigilant about everyone's safety and very good at taking us to discover the most spectacular panoramic points in the area. Highly recommended for those looking for adventure in nature without ever giving up peace of mind!

Hello to the whole staff! We really wanted to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the fantastic experience you let us have. ​We were looking for a family adventure and with you we found perfection: from the welcome over the phone (thanks, dear, for your patience with our thousand logistical questions!) to the enormous willingness to host our little dog during the tour. ​Impeccable organization, professionalism to spare, and maximum attention to safety. A special thanks to Vincenzo for the scrupulous briefing, the care for every detail, and the friendliness, and to our guide who accompanied us with a smile through the breathtaking landscapes of the Lucanian Dolomites. A wild, exciting route, taken care of down to the smallest detail. ​You made a splendid land even more magical. Thank you for your kind availability, see you soon! Highly recommended. Marica Valerio Sofia Leonardo and Peggy
