Overview

Hi! I’m Mimma, an official guide for the Murgia Materana Park and an independent environmental hiking and experiential guide. My tours have a strong focus on nature but take a holistic, systemic approach—meaning they naturally integrate history, archaeology, local culture, and literature. I share with hikers how the landscape we traverse has evolved over millennia, the connection between the park and the city, and the broader importance of parks worldwide. What travelers take home isn’t just a tour, but a fresh perspective on nature and the world. I invite you to join me on this tour; I love this place and want to share that passion with you, tailoring the pace and level to your preferences and making you feel like Matera is a bit like home. I look forward to seeing you!
