My husband and I were very excited to learn the history of this ancient city to only end up disappointed because it never happened. We received confirmation that the booking went through, the tour was paid for and we showed up at the correct location, but no tour guide ever came to meet us. When I called and spoke to the tour guide, she said we were never booked and said she would get back to me. She never called me back and then my trip was credited back to my credit card with no explanation.
We booked a private tour which was paid in advance and given a booking reference number and a confirmation number from the tour operator. We probably should have confirmed the tour the day before but we were en route and busy finding our hotel. We waited at the requested rendezvous point but the tour operator never showed. We called her and she said she didn’t have a booking. We ventured out on our own and had a lovely day in Matera.
Victoria was an excellent guide concise yet informative, who selected a terrific route and balance of stops. We appreciated the flexible service delivered with an engaging personality and a side of great locals’ foodie tips to pursue independently afterwards. Highly recommend. Thanks again! It was super hot so a private guide is the way to go (one tip, stopping to chat in the shade more often would be good).
We had an incredible experience with Julia on this tour who was extremely knowledgeable, pleasant, engaging and thorough. Would highly recommend this extremely unique experience and would highly recommend this and other tours with Julia.
We had a good introduction to the town of Matera, including it’s history and culture, and of course learned the history of the caves. One note is that we got rescheduled several times after being confirmed which was a pain in the neck. We did eventually get a connected with a very nice guide but there was a lot of back and forth at the last minute.
We booked a private tour for 2 people. Our guide was too young and unexperienced with little or none knowledge of history. Visit was very superficial. Very disappointing.
Julia our tour guide was really great and took her time. We had somebody in our group who has a heart condition and she went slowly and at our pace….she even organized a tuk tuk to bring us back up…really to recommend
Thank you very much for your comment . It was my pleasure to guide you
Julia was a lovely guide. Matera is a gorgeous town, and we enjoyed or 3 hour tour. We were taken to some interesting spots in the Sassi and given a good history.
Julia took such great care of my wife and I on our tour of Matera! She was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the city and took time to explain everything to us in great detail. We loved every minute! Thank you Julia for a wonderful private tour!
Thank you very much for your review. I appreciate very much .
