Beautiful tour, truly tailored for children and very interesting for adults as well. The little ones were enthusiastic and super attentive throughout the entire route (not trivial, considering it is quite long). You visit very characteristic places, and Sara's explanations are simple and very engaging. Definitely recommended!!!! Thanks again!!!!!!
Fantastic and exciting experience, certainly for the children, but also for us adults. The guide Sara knew how to engage the children, passing on her passion for this unique and enchanting city to them. As the saying goes: learning while having fun.
Sara was very good and thorough; she accompanied us through the streets of Matera with a beautiful treasure hunt! Definitely a must-do!
It turned out to be an interesting and well-thought-out experience, especially for a family with small children that still wants to learn about and visit a precious town like Matera from a historical and cultural perspective☺️
We participated in the treasure hunt with our children and it was a great experience! Congratulations to Sara for her skill and passion!
We spent 2 hours really pleasant and didactic. Sara is very good, prepared and knows how to involve children. The treasure hunt is well prepared and suitable for children aged 5-10. Even for us adults it was a nice experience. Highly recommended!
It 'was a wonderful experience to involve children of 9 and 5 years in the discovery of a new city' in an unusual way and' perfectly successful thanks to the skill of our guide Sara who knew how to tell Matera to children and even us adults in an impeccable way!
A child-friendly treasure hunt...very interesting for adults too! We spent a day in serenity and discovering this truly wonderful city! Our guide Sara was very kind to also point us to places to eat. We highly recommend it to everyone! Nice experience for kids😉
Our guide Sara was great at capturing the attention of young explorers and great explorers with games and riddles about the city of Matera. The route is also suitable for children! Great experience, recommended for those who want to discover the secrets and beauties of Matera in a fun way!
Interesting and engaging experience for the whole family. Francesco and Sara gave us valuable advice on what to see before / after the treasure hunt. Sara with sympathy and professionalism made us discover curious aspects related to the history and traditions of Matera.
