This tour provided enough time in both Matera and Altamura. It is NOT a guided tour, but allows you to wander and explore at your own pace. Driver, Gianluca, was knowledgeable, professional and personable. Beats the train, or driving a car by yourself. Highly recommend.

Dear Philip, Thank you very much for your kind feedback. We are delighted to hear that you appreciated the excellent support from the driver, as well as the information and recommendations provided during the trip. We hope to welcome you again soon!
We enjoyed this as it was a small group and we had a guide but were mainly allowed to explore on our own which for us was perfect.
Dear Kate, Thank you so much! We’re really happy you enjoyed the small group experience and the balance between guided insights and free time to explore at your own pace. Hope to see you again soon!
