Overview

Discover Matera through the world of cinema on a guided e-bike small group adventure across the historic centre, the Sassi, and the Park of the Rupestrian Churches.

Follow an expert guide along a hidden itinerary and uncover filming locations that would be difficult to recognise on your own. Relive scenes from 007: No Time to Die, The Passion of the Christ, and Imma Tataranni Italian TV-show, while learning how Matera’s rock-cut architecture and dramatic landscapes were transformed for the screen.

Cycle through a varied route of urban streets, scenic viewpoints, cycle paths, and short off-road sections. End the experience at the Murgecchia viewpoint, where you can admire the Sassi from across the Gravina canyon.
