Worth taking a guided tour
Pisanie I usually prefer exploring places on my own, but I had a feeling that Matera hides many stories and details that are easy to miss, so I decided to join a guided tour. It turned out to be a great decision. Brunella was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the history of the city easy to follow and genuinely interesting. She pointed out many details I would never have noticed on my own and was happy to answer all our questions. I would definitely recommend a tour with Brunella to anyone visiting Matera.

Perfect Intro to Matera
Walking tour of the Sassi of Matera with Casa Grotta/Church

Perfect Intro to Matera
Our local guide Mario gave us a wonderful overview of life in the Sassi. The visit to the Cave house and Rupestrian church was fascinating and informative. Our family of six with little one were well looked after. We walked past all the major viewing points, squares and churches which was an ideal introduction to Matera.

Perfect Day
This is a great place to spend the day. We went started at pool 1 and worked our way to the top of the hill where the spring originates. We also spent some time at the private beach. It was an amazing experience. Make sure to bring a towel and sandals. A must stop is the Vino Grotto for lunch.

Very educational!
Great tour - just the right amount of time. Am really glad it was not a huge tour, it felt more intimate with time to ask questions. Bring lots of water if it’s hot out! Also, the tour agency doesn’t have a bathroom (or know if there is a bathroom nearby) so make sure to go well ahead of time.

Matera : Centuries-Old Olive Grove Tour with Oil and Local Tasting
Janet_C, Jun 2026
Olive oil spectacular!
We drove from Matera approx 75 mins. Last km typically Italian single lane track. Totally worth it once you arrive at Mantenera. Spectacular views as you get guided through the olive grove by the lovely Elena. Oil tasting and a wonderful lunch followed. Thanks to Andreas for sharing!! Highly recommend this experience. Take your walking shoes and don’t forget to buy some of their olive oil to take home.

Tour at 5.30 pm due to the Giro < 24 years the morning tour was cancelled. Received a nice message from the organization whether 5:30 pm was an option. Driven with driver/guide Carlo in a luxury Mercedes bus through the Stassi with enough stops. Then to the other side of the city and visited cave houses that have been inhabited in the past. Then to a small church at the foot of the Stassi. Both parts can only be done by car. Not with a tuk tuk or walking tour. Was a nice tour of over 1.5 hours.

C6021CPsandras, May 2026
Fun educational excursion to nature, caves, cave church and views of Matera
We were a group of about 12, and were driven to the nature reserve by van. There we were given a tour of a cave church / pilgrimage site, we watched Matera from the cliff at setting sun, then we visited a few caves. The guide Michele told all about the history, geology and plants that grow here, which was very interesting. It is not a real extended walk, but easy clothes and shoes are recommended; there is no paved road.
