Fantastic Tour - Our trip from Bari to Matera and Alberobello was truly unforgettable, and a huge part of that was thanks to our guide, Vito. From the very beginning, he made us feel completely at ease with his warm, friendly personality and genuine enthusiasm. Vito’s knowledge of the region was incredible—he brought each place to life with fascinating stories, historical insights, and little details you’d never discover on your own. Whether we were wandering through the ancient streets of Matera or admiring the unique trulli houses in Alberobello, his passion made the experience so much richer. What really stood out, though, was how natural and relaxed everything felt. It didn’t feel like a typical tour at all—it was more like spending the day exploring with an old friend who just happens to know everything about the area. He was attentive, engaging, and always happy to answer questions or tailor the experience to our interests. I honestly couldn’t recommend this tour more highly. If you’re planning a visit to this part of Italy, having someone like Vito guide you makes all the difference.

5 Stars – Exceptional Tour of Matera & Alberobello! - Our tour of Matera and Alberobello with Vito Maurogiovanni was absolutely outstanding! From start to finish, Vito made the experience unforgettable. His passion for Puglia’s history and culture shines through in every explanation, and his storytelling brings each location to life in the most engaging way. Vito was warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable. He customized the experience to our pace and interests, making us feel completely comfortable throughout the day. We learned so much, saw so many beautiful places, and enjoyed every moment. We cannot recommend Vito enough — if you’re booking a tour in Puglia, this is the one you don’t want to miss! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Grazie mille, Vito! 🙏🏻🥰

Great way to visit Matera snd Arborobello - Thoroughly enjoyable visit to Matera and Alborobello . Our tour guide picked us up close to our airbnb and spoke knowledgably about the two historic areas. It was well worth the time and money

Fantastic guide to two remarkable cities! - Our small group (2 couples) saw Matera and Alberobello with Vito - our superb guide. Vito gave excellent background and historical perspective to what we were seeing. He guided us through the streets which we would never have found on our own. He also kept the conversation running for the full 6+ hours of our trip. The only downside was that Matera and Alberobello were not as beautiful as the advertising brochure photos, maybe because the sun was not as intense. Regardless, both place were superb and truly impressive.

Go to these sites but find someone else to take you there. - Vito is knowledgeable but one of my least favorite tour guides from this trip. I didn’t like the conversation outside of the historical information. Plus he was selectively deaf. Trying to communicate with a dead tour guide - who is only deaf when he didn’t want to answer your questions was frustrating. Also - America does it all wrong vs Italy. And he was obsessed with UNESCO. Just not a fan. It was also our most expensive excursion - but to me provided the least in value. So too expensive for what you get. We loved the two sites - but for as long as it was and as expensive as it was it should have included at least a little food. All of our other less expensive and just as long or shorter excursions included lunch. I would look for a different tour.
