About Matera
Matera's Sassi are unlike anywhere else in Italy — two ancient cave districts carved into a limestone gorge, where rock churches, cisterns and cave dwellings sit stacked above each other. A half-day walking tour is the most efficient way to understand what you're looking at, and the choice ranges from the Guided Tour of Matera's Sassi: Cave House & Rock Church to the Private Walking Tour of Matera: Uncover History with a Multilingual Guide. Most departures last around two hours and stay entirely on foot, so you can pair one with lunch or an afternoon in the newer town.
