Start exploring Matera at your own leisure. Enjoy the magic atmosphere and picturesque landscapes of the Stone Town of Italy.
Private guided tour of Matera, a UNESCO Heritage site: the whole neighborhood excavated into the rock, literally sculpted behind a deep ravine, an inextricable network of tunnels and buildings, literally one on top of the other.
Experience the atmosphere of an Italian town: food & walk in the “labyrinth” of streets in the Sassi.

Private guided tour of Alberobello designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1996 for its characteristic cone-shaped homes, better known as the ‘Trulli’. Stop for lunch in the old town in a typical restaurant built in a “Trullo”, the building conical shape made of living stone dating back to 1400.
After lunch Locorotondo. Listed among “The Most Beautiful Villages of Italy”, a white balcony in Murgia dei Trulli, closed into its circular perfection of stones and mortars: the white color wraps everything, it looks like flashing background of baroque architecture of local stones with the characteristic peaky roofs made of grey stoned “chiancarelle”, called cummerse.
