Tour guide rushed a little too much. Language barrier was difficult. He mostly showed us where modern hotels and where movies were shot in the city instead of historical significance.

There is so much amazing history in Matera and a guided tour is the best way to learn. The tour was a little boring for the kids but worthwhile.

Reservation via le site très aisée, contacts facile via Whatsapp, tarifs respectés, paiement après la prestation. Ana Maria nous a fait découvrir Matera avec passion et pédagogie. Sans elle nous n'aurions fait que survoler les richesses de cette ville. Merci encore.
