About Matera

Matera rewards the solo traveler who treats it as a base rather than a single stop: the Sassi at dawn are quiet enough to have to yourself, and the surrounding Basilicata and Apulia countryside hides places that are awkward to reach without a car. Small-group and private departures make those gaps easy to close, whether you join the Craco Ghost Town & Pisticci Day Trip from Matera with Amaro Lucano Museum or a longer cross-region run such as Leuca: Exclusive Full-Day Tour to UNESCO Matera.

Frequently asked questions

The best options here are small-group or private NCC tours with a fixed itinerary, so you are not left arranging transport or filling empty seats yourself. Departures are set, the guide handles the driving between towns like Craco, Pisticci and Bernalda, and you can join as one person without a minimum group.
