About Matera

Matera is not a city of roller coasters — its romance comes from honey-colored cave houses, lantern-lit alleys, and viewpoints that glow at dusk. Couples can drift through the Sassi by night on the Matera by Night: Cave House and Rock Church, or ride a vintage Ape Calessino on the Panoramic Private Ape Calessino Tour: Explore the Sassi of Matera for a private, unhurried look at the rock city.
