Alberobello e Matera in BUS + Guida fisica ad Alberobello e Matera + Degustazione - WEBSITE

On this tour we will visit the wonderful cities of Alberobello (also known as the city of trulli) and Matera  Alberobello was named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1996 because it is an exceptional example of building construction using prehistoric techniques that have survived intact and still function in the modern world.  A "Trullo" is in effect a small limestone house, made of dry stone walls, roughly worked limestone boulders collected from nearby fields and topped with a conical roof. Souvenir shops, B&Bs, bars and restaurants will cheer up your stay in Alberobello.  Matera is the city of the Sassi, the original urban nucleus, developed starting from the natural caves dug into the rock and subsequently modeled into increasingly complex structures within two large natural amphitheaters which are the Sasso Caveoso and the Sasso Barisano.
