The tour guide, Mara, was lovely. She knew the history of the city very well and flavored her talk with charming anecdotes about her grandmother. Mara's Englidh was very good. I had no trouble understanding her. I recommend doing this tour in the shoulder season -- May or September -- as the cool breeze today (Sept. 25) was delightful. Taking the tour in July or August would probably be tougher.

There were 8 of us joining this tour, unfortunately 2 got sick and canceled at the last minute. Apulia Smart Tour was kind enough to offer us a refund. They were professional and kind specially Francesco who did his best to help. Matera is a city that shouldn’t be missed. The city is like walking back to ancient civilization over 2000 years ago with buildings, homes, churches built on limestone cliffs. The Sassi - cave dwelling in the mountains. Our tour guide Maria was very good and thorough. She even brought with her photos to show us Matera’s history, important people, movies filmed in Matera. I highly recommend this tour.

Booked for morning. Was texts and told no morning could we change to afternoon. Not the same meeting place as the morning tour much further pick/up point. Put in a 10 passenger van and when we got there we were met by our local guide who said we needed to wait for another tour bus to go with us. Waited a little over 30 minutes and off we went! Then your guie was ok but missed the sassi house tour altogether (maybe because our time was cut short waiting in the other Group?)the whole tour from start to finish seemed poorly planned and did not run smooth.

The trip was cancelled the day prior due to Insufficient numbers with another trip offered as a replacement (that added in a trip to Alberobello) . We had already visited Alberobello and wanted the whole day at Matera so the alternate trip did not interest us. Refund was paid bur we missed out on our Matera trip which was disappointing.
