The Experience

Discover Matera with a panoramic bus tour ideal for visiting the Sassi in a comfortable way and without long walks. The experience combines panoramic routes, short walks in the historic center and entrances included in the symbolic places of the city. From Tramontano Castle the tour reaches Piazzetta Pascoli, one of the most suggestive viewpoints to admire the Sasso Caveoso, and Piazza Vittorio Veneto, the heart of modern Matera overlooking the Sasso Barisano. The descent continues towards the Sassi with panoramic stops, a visit to a rock church carved into the rock and a typically furnished Casa Grotta, to understand life in the Sassi until the 1950s. The bus facilitates travel in areas with elevation differences, making the tour suitable for all ages. Ideal for a first visit, for those seeking iconic views, culture and comfort in a single experience.
