Guided tour of the Sassi di Matera

4.6/5
38 reviews

Grab the chance to discover the unparalleled rocky habitat of Matera on a guided tour of its main attractions! Among alleys, hidden churches, and cave houses you will immerse yourself in the history and culture of this unique city, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1993.

Begin your tour with a stop in Piazza San Francesco to admire the namesake church and then walk until you'll reach the highest point of the city, the Civita. Here you'll admire the Cathedral. Stroll among the narrow streets and winding alleys to reach via dei Fiorentini and visit the suggestive rock church of Sant'Antonio Abate.

The next stop of your tour will be a typically-furnished cave house, that you will have the chance to visit. Continue along Via Madonna delle Virtù and Porta Pistoia while learning more about the Church of San Pietro Caveoso. Your experience will end in Piazzetta Pascoli, where you'll enjoy a breathtaking view overlooking the Sassi.

    Il tour dei sassi di Matera si è svolto secondo gli orari previsti toccando le zone principali della citta vecchia (unica mancanza il Duomo con il suo belvedere). Guida molto competente e disponibile. Si è aggiunto anche un evento musicale con la partecipazione di un anziano di Matera. Giudizio OK

    A parte il misunderstanding iniziale, poiché la visita guidata è stata annullata, siamo stati inseriti la mattina successiva con la guida Antonia molto preparata, tour a piedi esplicativo dei sassi ben fatto e in modo esaustivo.

    Un tour molto ben organizzato e con guida molto professionale. Sono state tra l'altro acquisite molte conoscenze sulla storia dei Sassi.
