Options de l'excursion
Itinéraire
Après avoir admiré des vues à couper le souffle et écouté l'histoire incroyable et captivante des Sassi, vous traverserez la partie la plus préservée des Sassi. Vous découvrirez également les coins les moins touristiques et arriverez sur la plus belle place du Sasso Caveoso, la Piazza San Pietro, l'un des points de vue les plus évocateurs de la ville.
Vous visiterez un musée aménagé dans une maison troglodyte, une occasion unique de constater de vos propres yeux les conditions de vie insalubres dans lesquelles vivaient les habitants des Sassi, dans ces habitations troglodytes, il n'y a pas si longtemps. C'est là la clé pour comprendre la période la plus controversée de l'histoire de Matera, lorsque la ville était qualifiée de « honte nationale ». La visite du musée est également l'occasion de découvrir une ancienne citerne destinée à la collecte des eaux de pluie et de comprendre le système de collecte de l'eau, l'un des aspects les plus intéressants de la ville, qui sera expliqué en détail par les guides.
En vous promenant dans une rue ancienne construite sur les remparts médiévaux de la ville, vous pourrez admirer sa beauté et comprendre pourquoi tant de réalisateurs l'ont choisie comme décor de cinéma. Ce sera l'occasion de partager des anecdotes et des histoires sur les nombreux films tournés à Matera, du controversé *La Passion du Christ* de Mel Gibson au dernier opus spectaculaire de 007, *No Time to Die*.
Sur la Piazza Duomo, vous pourrez admirer la façade romane de la cathédrale médiévale de Matera et profiter d'une vue imprenable sur le Saso Barisano.

Matera is beautiful, but you'd struggle to truly appreciate it without a guide like Vito. He grew up there and has great insight into how the city is perceived by residents of different generations and what it is like to live there -- not just visit and drop in. He took us to caves that no one else was in, was able to answer every question and even made some great recommendations for us for restaurants after our tour. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much for these kind words! It was a real pleasure showing you around! Grazie ancora, Vito
Vio is a knowledgeable, available, and friendly guide. Highly recommended! Elisa
Grazie! È stato un piacere accompagnare una bella famiglia come la vostra!
Vito is great! Very knowledgeable, he clearly loves his beautiful city. Walking the old town and Sassi with Vito provided us with an incredible opportunity to experience Matera in a way we could never have done on our own. An essential addition to our trip.
Evan, thank you so much for the kind words, it was a pleasure to meet you!
We had an outstanding tour of Matera with Vito and highly recommend him. He was excellent in every way; knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about Matera, its history, and its people. Vito provided a wonderful historical background that helped us understand and appreciate this remarkable city. He patiently answered every curious question we had, and his depth of knowledge was impressive. He brought the history and culture of Matera to life giving us insights that we would never have discovered on our own. His English was excellent, with clear pronunciation that made everything easy to understand. The walking pace was comfortable and he was attentive, friendly, and professional throughout the tour. Thanks to Vito, our visit was even more memorable. If you are looking for a guide in Matera, look no further—you will be in excellent hands.
Easy communication and nice experience with a professional guide. The best recomendations for the private group tour.
Vito was an EXCELLENT guide! Very knowledgeable about Matera and gave a great overview of the city from both an historical and modern-day perspective. He is adept at explaining how and why people built the sassi and how they've changed over time. I particularly enjoyed his insights into the construction of the sassi as a form of "negative architecture". He didn't shy away from the challenges Matera faced before the forced government relocation but also dispelled stereotypes about the inhabitants. He shared a nuanced understanding of the politics surrounding the relocation and subsequent redevelopment of the area. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Vito.
Would strongly recommend our guide, Vito. Very knowledgeable and enriched our Matera experience. We did a two-hour private walking tour of the Sassi which Vito filled with historical context, explored many physical attributes, took us to several viewpoints, and even explained the various movies that have been shot in Matera.
We did the 3 hour tour with Vito and it was fantastic! He’s super nice and knowledgeable, we loved every minute of it. It was fascinating, a beautiful history lesson, we learned a lot, saw Matera from a number of vantage points, and now have memories (and a thousand photos) to last a lifetime. We highly recommend spending time with Vito and experiencing everything he (as a local) has to offer.
Look no further. Vito is an amazing guide. Born in Matera, Vito can trace his ancestors in Matera back to 1700. He is knowledgeable, kind, and accommodating. We did his 3 hour Sassi tour. He far exceeded our expectations. He also gave us links to great restaurants and other things to do while in Matera.
Vito - we cannot thank you enough for showing us your home town of Matera! Noelene and I so enjoyed learning about Matera and your passion for the history of your hometown is admirable. Thank you for making our visit to Matera such a special and memorable one. Best regards, Bryndis
