Overview
Matera is one of the world's oldest inhabited cities in the world. It is by far one of the most impressive cities in the region of Basilicata which is located in Italy's deep south. The city has been considered a World Heritage Site by UNESCO since 1993.
This ancient city is so impressive because of its unique geography, geology, architecture and the amazing events which happened here. Featured in the film the "Passion of Christ", you can catch a glimpse of what awaits you here, but the magnitude of it - the incredible scope of what humans did here, simply has to be seen in person.
We can try to explain it in words, but it is just simply put one of those places you just simply must see with your own eyes.
Many visitors to Italy never venture so far south as Basilicata or the deep south in general, but those that do come are rewarded with some of Italy's finest foods, the most hospitable people, and the magic of one of the the world's most ancient cities and cultures.
We have many services, small group guided tours, private tours, vacation pacakges in Italy's deep south and WONDERFUL dining recommendations in town and around in the surrounding farms.
