To enjoy and understand a little Matera it is essential to rely on short guides - Beautiful Matera and very good guides Adriano for the tour in the Sassi and Patrizia for the one in the Murgia park. Thanks to the wonderful day, it was an unforgettable experience

Matera an emotion - Guided by Beppe we discovered Matera and its history. The narration was complete, exhaustive and at times exciting touching also the human aspects of the inhabitants of this wonderful city.

Exceptional experience with Passi nei Sassi - We participated in two tours with Passi nei Sassi: one to Murgia and one in Sassi di Matera. Both experiences were really great.
The guides have proved extremely professional, friendly and helpful. Right from the start, they put us at ease, answering all our questions with great patience and making each explanation clear and engaging.
Their ability to transmit passion and knowledge has allowed us to fully appreciate the beauty and history of Matera.
We highly recommend Passi nei Sassi to those looking for impeccable service and want to live an authentic and well-organized experience. Special thanks for your attention and availability!

Experience to do - Excellent guided tour, absolutely not to be missed. Very good Simone, perhaps the best guide among those that have happened to me. Competent, exhaustive, very clear, with a voice always distinguishable and understandable, materano doc in love with his city. In two hours, Simone gave a fresco of the beautiful Matera, whose wealth and beauty, as he himself recommended, are then to be deepened.

Bad cancellation policy - I couldn't do it because my flight changed. I tried to cancel the day before but you couldn't and I lost the silver. There should be more possibilities to cancel in these circumstances
