I had enough time to see the most important attractions. The van was on time and in good condition. The driver was super friendly. It was a nice trip.
Great trip to see two amazing villages. Our guide and driver were both excellent. Would highly recommend this trip, it was the highlight of my stay in Bari.
Everything was so perfecly organized, there were just few more people with us, the van was a luxurious Mercedes which made our journey very comfortable.
Very beautiful. There's a lot of people in August. If I could, I'd go again in another month. Matera is fantastic. Alberobello looks like a play town.
Smoothly organised, this allows you to see both stunning places. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to explore Italy and especially Alberobello and Matera 😊
