Matera is a unique city in the cliffs and a great starting point for organized tours of the surroundings, nearby cities and neighboring areas. It is easy to combine walks in Sassi with trips to nearby settlements, and if desired, more distant trips to neighboring regions and even other countries within the framework of extended programs. Matera attracts travelers with its unusual atmosphere and serves as a convenient base for short itineraries and excursions.
The focus of many programs is the old cave town of Sassi, which has been included in the UNESCO list since 1993 and was recognized as the European Capital of Culture 2019. In organized tours you will see ancient dwellings in the rocks, museum expositions and author’s exhibitions, as well as get acquainted with art plein airs and works of modern masters, which often take place right in the historical fabric of the city. Combined trips to neighboring cities, such as Alberobello, are popular, allowing you to see several architectural and cultural gems of the region in one day.
The nature around Matera is closely related to the cave landscape: stone canyons, grottoes and winding gorges create impressive views and unique trails for walking. Here you can find quiet corners for the rest of the family, as well as routes for those who like leisurely hikes and photo walks at dawn and sunset. The surrounding spaces are ideal for small trips to nature within the nearest areas and neighboring areas.
Of particular interest are thematic excursions: tasting local products from artisans and farmers, ethnographic meetings with residents, master classes from artists and artisans, as well as relaxation programs and health routes, including visits to places for a relaxing holiday. Within the framework of art and gastronomic routes, meetings with plein air authors and demonstrations of art works are organized, which makes trips lively and unforgettable.
The formats of the tours are very different: individual author’s programs for those who value privacy, group excursions for friendly companies and families, hiking in Sassi and the surrounding area, car routes in the nearest cities and neighboring areas, as well as hikes along rocky paths. Local guides are valuable for their knowledge of the history, cultural context and hidden corners of the city: the author’s routes are carried to little-known grottoes, species sites and workshops, which are not in ordinary guidebooks.
