Designed for convenience and comfort, our route takes you close to Matera’s must-see attractions, offering a seamless introduction to this UNESCO World Heritage site.

The tour begins with a visit to Tramontano Castle, perched on Lapillo Hill, overlooking Matera's historic center with its stunning panoramic views. You’ll continue to the Belvedere Sant'Agostino, also known as Belvedere Colombo, a picturesque square next to the majestic Church of St. Augustine, offering unparalleled views of the Sassi. As the journey unfolds, you’ll explore the iconic Sassi di Matera, including the Sasso Barisano area, a testament to the city's rich cultural heritage.

During the route, there is a stop at Casa Grotta, where you can visit a traditional cave house that reveals the ancient lifestyle of Matera's inhabitants. The tour then takes you to Piazza San Pietro Caveoso, a historic open space featuring the impressive San Pietro Caveoso Church, dramatically located on its eastern edge. Continuing through Rione Piccianello, you’ll see Matera's first working-class neighborhood, which emerged after the Sassi were evacuated.

A highlight of the tour is the Belvedere Murgia Timone in the Matera Murgia Park, where you’ll enjoy a photo stop with panoramic views of the valley, a region steeped in millennia of history. The journey concludes at the Santuario Santa Maria della Palomba, home to the "La Palomba" Sculpture Park, an artistic transformation of a former tuff quarry by the renowned artist Antonio Paradiso.
