Fenix Tours

In 2014, Matera, one of the two main towns of Basilicata was chosen as European cultural capital for 2019 putting it into the limelight. Regardless this ephemeral period of fame and fortune, the town itself is really an impressive place. The historical center is spectacular and despite local inhabitants wrongly boast of being the third oldest city of the world, it is quite unique and worthy to be visited. Matera is not the only gem of South-East Italy: the Trulli of Alberobello and the baroque city of Lecce along with Matera make up an incredible trio of tourist sites and it doesn't stop there. The two neighbouring regions of Puglia and Basilicata have plenty of places worthy to be visited... it is up to you to come and discover them

IMPORTANT:

For those who intend to visit Puglia and Basilicata we propose a quality service. Needless to say, our excursions are addressed to groups or families and not to individual customers and bear in mind that here we are talking about a flexible and customizable tour, not a pre-packaged tour.

Between Puglia and Basilicata, 94 destinations were selected, grouped into 16 historically and geographically homogeneous itineraries. The drop-down menu allows you to access the page dedicated to each of the destinations with historical and cultural information. The pages are also accessible through the Proposed Itineraries section by clicking on the itinerary image which opens the itinerary page itself with the description, the destination links, a map to locate the sites of interest, the tour proposals, as well as booking links and payment methods. Finally, at the top right there is a drop-down menu for navigating the site and two buttons on the right and left to communicate with us.

The tours have to be defined by e-mail or other available means (check the How to contact us section or clicking the buttons on both sides), as they have to be adjusted according to your needs and requests, even though some of them are possible after the beginning of the tour.

The Sassi (Matera historic center) half day tour is included and free for those who buy at least two days of tours in all
