Matera Sightseeing, attractions, culture and history Tours 2021/2022

“This is a great trip for walkers on holiday, rather than a walking holiday. The walks were not demanding, and there was a lot of time between to look around the fantastic towns and villages where we stayed. Accommodation was always in comfortable, interesting rooms full of character. It ranged from a refurbished palace in Lecce, to a room within the actual town wall in Ostuni, a trullo in Alberobello to a cave dwelling in Matera. The walks were enjoyable, and covered different aspects of the fabulous southern regions of the Italian peninsula. The organisation of the trip was seamless, and support was there when needed.”

“The cities visited were amazing and staying in Ostuni, the White city a Trulli in Alberobello and a cave room in Matera were all wonderful experiences. The walking was very gentle and scenic.”

“Puglia trip was fabulous, and a huge part was due to our guide, Gianluca Dentico. His professionalism, respect, sense of humor, intelligence and knowledge of the area, (culture, history, flora/fauna, logistics), and caring attitude were much appreciated. He gave of his own time more than once to get our group oriented and happy in a new town. I cannot think of any improvement he could make. Did a great job keeping control of a large group without making anyone feel contained. I talked with most of our group, and I know they felt the same way I did about Gianluca - a credit to your organization!”
