In the Casa Grotta del Casalnuovo you can experience a real house of the Sassi through its original furniture and the tools of daily use that the family that lived there used in everyday life until 1958. It is a real ethnographic collection, a small museum with objects of common use and work from the times when the Sassi were inhabited, before the depopulation that occurred in the fifties. Inside, the original rooms and furnishings of the house are reconstructed before the ancient districts were depopulated in the late 1950s.

    4. Chiesa Rupestre di San Giuliano o Madonna Delle Grazie

      The church of the Madonna delle Grazie is located in Via del Sasso Caveoso. The church, still open to the public, was formerly named after St. Eustace, as can be seen from the pastoral visit of Msgr. Saracen in 1543 - 1544. The entrance consists DA a bell tower. Behind the altar we find a rock wall with several openings that lead to the sacristy; once there was the chancel. In the ceiling there are two carved domes and visible apse arches. On the right wall there is a Crucifixion, now ruined, under which there is a faded fresco. The figure of Christ is accompanied DA two angels and at the foot of it are: the Mother and John. On another wall is represented St. Francis of Assisi receiving the stigmata. In the ceiling area behind the altar, coffered panels with ornamental motifs are depicted. The corresponding wall, however, shows a painting of Saint Lucia.

    Tour in the Sassi of Matera with Teresa, choose quality!: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Matera.

    How much does Tour in the Sassi of Matera with Teresa, choose quality! cost?

    +

    Prices start at $14 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Matera usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Tour in the Sassi of Matera with Teresa, choose quality! take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Matera is not rushed.

    Is Tour in the Sassi of Matera with Teresa, choose quality! worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 85 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 91 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Matera, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Tour in the Sassi of Matera with Teresa, choose quality!?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Tour in the Sassi of Matera with Teresa, choose quality! suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Tour in the Sassi of Matera with Teresa, choose quality!?

    +

    Around 32 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Matera can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Matera and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Tour in the Sassi of Matera with Teresa, choose quality! start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Matera within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Matera?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Matera experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Tour in the Sassi of Matera with Casa Grotta and Rock Church, Sassi di Matera guided tour with Giulio, Discover Matera, the ancient city - English tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Matera?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Matera?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
