On this day trip to Matera and Altamura, you'll visit Apulia and Basilicata.

Description

After meeting at the Teatro Petruzzelli at the indicated time, we'll leave Bari to begin our day trip to Matera and Altamura.

Our first destination is Matera, a cave town recognized by Unesco. This town features an ancient rock-cut cave and has a history of inhabitants living in cave houses until 1952, creating two districts called Sassi. We will explore its winding cobbled streets with panoramic views of the Murgia hills.

After visiting Matera, we'll head to Altamura. There, we will experience the atmosphere of its historic center while strolling through its cobbled streets. Altamura is known for its artisan bread, recognized as the best in Italy. You will have free time to eat and try this delicacy in local stone ovens.

Finally, we will conclude the excursion and return to Bari, arriving 7 hours after the start of the tour.
