Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and professional. We were given ample time in both Matera and Alberobello to tour and also wander freely. Lunch was at a cave restaurant which was a very unique and enjoyable experience.

I would like to share with future tour goers, this is NOT a private tour. It is a small group so be ok with the price knowing this. Overall, the tour and pickup was fine. I think there could have been more facts, history, and evolution over time of the 2 places, especially Matera. I left a bit disappointed with my experience and knowledge shared there given it's 10k years old. It felt more like we were taken to just take photos and less exploring/fact finding. The rides were nice and smooth and local pickup was appreciated. My rating would be a 7 out of 10.Alberobello and Matera in a day from our ship in Bari was a sensational experience. Puglia is so different from other parts of Italy. Very unique. Our tour guide Eugene was very efficient. He spoke excellent English and had a wealth of knowledge. Highly recommended
