Ce qui vous attend

Matera possède de nombreux atouts : elle est classée au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO, capitale européenne de la culture en 2019 et ville troglodyte depuis plus de 5 000 ans. Cette visite vous propose de découvrir ses ruelles historiques, ses anciennes habitations troglodytes, de goûter à la gastronomie et au vin de la Basilicate. Vous avez aussi le choix entre visiter le musée de la maison troglodyte ou une église rupestre. Anna, l'une de nos guides locales expertes, explique : "Les maisons troglodytes de Matera étaient autrefois considérées comme un endroit honteux où vivre, connues surtout pour leur pauvreté, leurs maladies et leur criminalité. Aujourd'hui, beaucoup de grottes ont été transformées en maisons chics, en restaurants et en hôtels."

Considérées comme l'un des villages troglodytiques les plus remarquables et les plus intacts, Matera se distingue par ses anciennes habitations troglodytes appelées "sassi di Matera", "sassi" signifiant "pierres". Nous commencerons par visiter le quartier baroque, où les églises et les palais sont construits au sommet des grottes. Nous nous aventurerons ensuite dans les zones de Sasso Barisano et Sasso Caveoso, pour voir d'anciens sassi creusés dans les flancs du canyon de Gravina. Le cadre spectaculaire surplombant le paysage rocheux et sauvage fait partie du charme.

Vous vous arrêterez dans les vieux quartiers pour voir et mieux comprendre où les habitants vivaient dans la misère jusqu'aux années 1950, date à laquelle toute la population, environ 20 000 personnes, furent relogées. En se promenant dans cette ville aujourd'hui si pittoresque, il est difficile d'imaginer à quel point la vie d'autrefois ici était dure. Vous serez invité à déguster des plats et des vins typiques dans un restaurant situé dans un véritable "sasso" traditionnel. Pour terminer, vous pourrez choisir entre une visite facultative du musée de la maison troglodyte ou d'une église rupestre creusée dans la roche.

Matera tour with cave homes and local food tasting

Matera tour with cave homes and local food tasting

Matera has a lot going for it – it's a UNESCO World Heritage Site, European Capital of Culture 2019 and a cave city dating back over 5,000 years. Tour its historic lanes and ancient cave dwellings, try local Basilicata food and wine, then choose to visit the cave house museum or a rupestrian church. Anna, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The cave houses of Matera were once considered a shameful place to live, best known for poverty, disease and crime. Nowadays, many caves have been transformed into chic homes, restaurants, and hotels.'Considered one of the most outstanding and intact troglodyte settlements, Matera's big draw are the ancient cave dwellings known as ‘sassi', which translates to ‘stones'. First up, we'll check out the baroque quarter, where churches and palaces are built on top of the caves. Next, we'll venture into the Sasso Barisano and Sasso Caveoso areas to see ancient sassi carved into the flanks of Gravina canyon. The dramatic setting overlooking the wild, rocky landscape is all part of the charm.You'll pause for thought in the old quarters, where inhabitants lived in squalor up until the 1950s, which was when the whole population of around 20,000 was rehoused. Wandering around today's visually arresting town, it seems hard to believe how tough life once was here. You'll also get to try typical food and wine a restaurant housed in a real traditional sasso, before choosing between an optional visit to the cave house museum or a rupestrian church, cut into the rock.
