Stunning Matera hust at its best! - The whole town of Matera was absolutely amazing. A lot of walking up and down steps but worth it in the end. Our guide Indigo was a wealth of knowledge and knew his history. He was also a perfect gentleman!

Average - I enjoyed seeing all of the major highlights in Matera and learning a little bit of history. I signed up for an English tour but unfortunately there were only 4 of us who were English. The rest of the tourists were German so our guide had to translate twice, which meant we had less time exploring and learning more information and more time standing around, waiting. The driver was 20 minutes late picking me up and we had to wait another 20 minutes once in Matera for the rest of the group to show up. I don’t think I got my money’s worth. However, Matera is a must see!!

Over priced…..we could have just walked it. Didn’t do anything extra than you could of done by yourself. - No worth the money. It was a large group. Just walked the town, could have explored without tour leader. Tour leader was ok, had to wait while he explained in different languages. For the price, we were expecting more.
