Beautiful 2-hour visit among the rocks of Matera, made fascinating and very interesting even for children aged 4 and 7 ONLY thanks to the presence of the certified tour guide Mr. Pasquale Marchetti whom I thank on behalf of the whole group!!! He managed to make us immediately passionate about what surrounded us, we regret having to leave otherwise we would have asked him for other tours.

I was not satisfied. I probably misunderstood, but it seemed like they said the tour lasted 1h30 while in the end we did less than 1h. In my opinion it's not worth the €15 ticket. The agency, however, is very professional and the employees are nice, honorable mention to the lady "buttadentro", very nice.

Un tour eccellente! Un'ottima base per poi approfondire a piedi i luoghi visitati. Abbiamo apprezzato molto l'aver raggiunto le Murge con l'affaccio sulla gravina di fronte a Matera. Lo consiglio

Una stella perché non posso metterne meno. È una presa per i fondelli. Ci hanno fatto vedere 2 cose e la visita all'inizio del parco della muraglia era una visita ad una serie di sculture moderne insignificante! Il tour che doveva essere di 1.50 minuti è partito con 20 minuti di ritardo ed è durato 1.20h. Insomma una sola...... 45 euro in 3 buttati! Totale mancanza di serietà. Mariella

Simona et son collègue ont été très extrêmement gentils et attentionnés. Simona est une guide captivante qui tout au long du circuit se montre tout à tour amusante puis sérieuse dans la description de sa ville. Elle ne débite pas un laïus elle fait vivre ses explications. Nous avons adoré cette promenade.
