Tour of Caveoso in Matera amid history and beauty

Private guided tour in the heart of the Lucanian city, with a tasting and visit to a cave church and a cave house

The past giving new life to the present: Matera is a city carved into the rock of its Sassi, without equal in Europe. Among these, you must absolutely experience the enchantment of immersing yourself in the quarters carved out of the Sasso Caveoso, a natural amphitheatre used as a setting for various Hollywood films, including “007” and “Wonder Woman”. Accompanied by a knowledgeable guide, listen to a brief historical-architectural introduction about the city, then visit an authentic Sasso Caveoso cave house. Let yourself be catapulted back in time and observe the furnishings of the period, then continue to a rock church, with its rock walls and medieval frescoes. Visit a handicraft ceramics workshop and end on a high note with a tasting of typical local products. This tour leads to a better understanding of the area’s history and culture.
