About Basilicata

Basilicata rewards first-time visitors with museums and historic sites that feel genuinely lived-in rather than polished for tourists — nowhere more so than Matera, where the cave dwellings themselves are the exhibit. Start underground with the Matera: Guided Tour of the Ancient Underground City & Cave Houses, a two-hour introduction that consistently earns top marks from travellers, then branch out to the region's quirkier collections, such as the Craco Ghost Town & Amaro Lucano Museum Day Trip from Matera, which pairs an abandoned hilltop village with a working herbal-liqueur museum.

Frequently asked questions

Most first-timer-friendly options here are guided rather than self-led, so context comes built in. The Matera underground city and cave house tour is the classic starting point, while the Craco ghost town and Amaro Lucano museum trip suits anyone who wants history plus a local craft story in one outing.
