private tours from Bari to Matera

You might look at shuttlematera.com. It's private transportation, but you could combine it with a private guide in Matera - or they may have guides that they work with.

You could also just take the train from Bari to Matera, and then take a cab from the station down to the historic centre.

We spent two nights in Matera and loved it.

Hi, I just googled your query and a Viator tour came up that would work. Six hours and approx. $141. USD. We really enjoyed Matera. We drove from Monopoli to Matera and stopped by the tourist office and they put us on to a guided tour close by. Really enjoyed entering the cave buildings and learning the history. Bought a loaf of the regional bread to take back to our apartment. Delicious!
