This tour provided enough time in both Matera and Altamura. It is NOT a guided tour, but allows you to wander and explore at your own pace. Driver, Gianluca, was knowledgeable, professional and personable. Beats the train, or driving a car by yourself. Highly recommend.

The driver support was excellent . The driver informed us us of where to go, what to see and spoke English.

We enjoyed this as it was a small group and we had a guide but were mainly allowed to explore on our own which for us was perfect.
