We'll be in Matera the first week of Matera for 2 nights and one day. Anyone know of a good self-guided audio tour? Or a group tour? I know there are private tour options (around 120 Euros and up) but looking for something a bit less expensive. Thanks.

This is the one I did last May. It was $35, and I enjoyed it!
Sassi di Matera Tour with entry to Cave Houses” had been reserved, and 8 of us (the English tour) walked through several parts of Matera for three hours to see & learn about the history. Our guide also pointed out where scenes were filmed from several movies, especially for the James Bond movie. We stopped in a few churches, she shared details in the cave homes, and a man enthusiastically led us in a song, playing the pig stomach traditional drum.
