The hotel we were staying in booked the visit for us at the last minute, and I must say that we were really happy with the agency both for its availability in making the booking at the last minute and for the professionalism and ease of the guide Luca. More than a view, it was a convivial walk, full of anecdotes and laughter. The 6pm time is perfect to enjoy the changing face of the country between daylight and evening light with lighting. Thanks Luca, we were very happy, and I also got the bread stamp (on your advice). 😉 If we were to return or hear from friends who want to come, we will certainly be your guests again.

Stupenda passeggiata ieri pomeriggio"Matera by night"con partenza alle 16. Brunella ci mette passione, storia e un pizzico di storie di famiglia e rende tutto speciale! Complimenti!

Ci avevano detto che Matera era una città bellissima, ci eravamo preparati vedendo un documentario, la visita dal vivo però ci ha lasciato senza fiato. Siamo partiti alle ore 16, abbiamo terminato il tour di notte, godendoci il tramonto con i Sassi che si trasformavano in presepio. E con la guida, la Sig.ra Brunella, a farci da cicerone con una passione e un trasporto che raramente abbiamo trovato in altri viaggi. L'orgoglio del riscatto di una città nelle parole tramandate dal padre di Brunella che questi Sassi li ha vissuti, non ci vergognamo nel dire che ci sono stati momenti dove ci siamo commossi alle lacrime. Una visita davvero consigliatissima

Con la bravissima Brunella abbiamo passeggiato nei Sassi scoprendo, attraverso interessati ed appassionati racconti, come il tempo abbia reso giustizia alla storia ed alla bellezza di questa specialissima città. Esperienza da fare con una guida come Brunella.
