What you can expect

Discover the wild and ancient side of Matera on a guided walking tour through the Regional Park of the Rupestrian Churches, a spectacular UNESCO-listed landscape overlooking the Sassi. With return transfer from Matera city centre included, reach the protected archaeological area of Murgia Timone, accessible with the included entrance ticket.

Accompanied by an expert guide, walk scenic trails across the Murgia plateau and explore traces of an ancient Neolithic village, where some of the earliest human communities in Southern Italy once lived. Visit the rock-hewn churches of San Vito and Madonna delle Tre Porte, admired for their Byzantine frescoes and centuries of spiritual history.

Along the route, cross the dramatic Golgota area, chosen by Mel Gibson as a filming location for The Passion of the Christ thanks to its timeless scenery and cinematic atmosphere.

The experience ends at the panoramic Belvedere viewpoint at sunset, where the Sassi di Matera glow in warm golden light, creating one of the most unforgettable views in Southern Italy.
