What people love about Hiking & Trekking Tours in Italy
- Puglia and Matera Walking & Hiking Tour
My family and I had the best time on this tour. Stunning location, amazing food and the perfect atmosphere for yoga practice. Antonio took really good care of us, sharing his insightful knowledge of the area, and Susanna cooked the most delicious food for us. I will never forget her homemade vegetarian lasagna. Jairo was an incredible yoga teacher, always listening to our needs and requirements. The best yoga and cooking holiday in Italy!

Fabrizio absolutely made the tour! He was so wonderful!! We really enjoyed the Arberobello, Ostuni & Matera. Fabrizio went above and beyond the call of duty for many things but in particular by accompanying us to Lecce. We would absolutely recommend Fabrizio.

When is the best time to go hiking in Italy?
Peak hiking conditions vary across Italy's diverse regions. Late spring through early fall (April to October) proves ideal for the Amalfi Coast with September offering clear skies and mild temperatures perfect for the Path of Gods trail. The Alpine paths of South Tyrol welcome hikers from May through September when snow has cleared and weather is reliable. Puglia's trails remain accessible year-round but visitors find the most comfortable conditions during spring (March-May) and autumn (September-October). As one TourRadar traveler mentioned: "May is a good time to go to Puglia as it's not too hot and the wildflowers are beautiful."
What type of accommodation can I expect on Italian hiking tours?
Italian hiking accommodations blend comfort with local character. Along the Amalfi Coast the Hotel Due Torri provides a swimming pool and regional Campanian dishes in Bomerano. Mountain lodgings like Hotel am Reschensee in South Tyrol put you close to the trails with panoramic views. In Matera travelers can sleep in converted limestone caves at places like Hotel Sassi. As one TourRadar traveler shared: "The hotel Due Torri was a comfortable haven to return to each day and the food was excellent."
