I love Italy in general, I've visited many Italian cities but... Matera is the most beautiful one. This place is extremely charming not only because of its unbelievable history, but also thanks to its inhabitants, who are a treasury of local stories. Such people include our guide Vito, who was the best that could happen to us. It is a great privilege to visit the city with someone who has so big knowledge and can pass it on to you with great passion and perfect English:) Absolutely worth it.

I've heard a lot about Matera and although usually I read and prepare to the trip by myself this time I decided to book private tour. I knew this town is just pure history and I will be not able to explore it without some suggestions. I am so happy with my decision. The guide was very well prepared, telling us the stories in very interesting way with so many curiosities (some o them I remember until today!). He can say so many about ancient times as well as life in Matera nowadays. We appreciate also this particular sense of humor and Italian accent while speaking English :) Totally worth it, score for this tour guide!
