💡 Praktische tips

• 1.Italy requires EU pet passport, ISO microchip and valid rabies vaccination; same applies for arrivals from any EU member state. UK arrivals via Bari BRI airport need an Animal Health Certificate (AHC) issued by a UK OV within 10 days of travel.
• 2.Italian law requires muzzle on hand and short leash on public transport (FAL train, Pugliairbus shuttle, Marozzi/Miccolis buses) and inside shops/museums; categories of restricted breeds vary by region but Basilicata follows the national list, declare at the FAL and Pugliairbus check-in if applicable.
• 3.The FAL Bari Centrale-Matera Centrale narrow-gauge train accepts muzzled leashed medium-large dogs entirely free of charge (no half-fare unlike Trenitalia regional elsewhere in Italy) and small dogs in carriers free; use it for the 1h15-1h30 trip hourly instead of driving the SS96.
• 4.The Sassi limestone lanes are steep, cobbled and pedestrian-only; paw safety on the tufa is good (rough porous limestone, not slippery), but the deep narrow alleys can hit 35-38 °C in July-August daytime, walk dogs at 6:30-9:00 and after 19:30, use the cave-cool restaurants and the Murgia karst plateau (530 m, 6 °C cooler) in midday heat.
• 5.The Parco della Murgia Materana directly across the Gravina ravine is fully open to off-leash hiking year-round on its 35+ marked trails, with 150+ rupestrian rock churches and the Belvedere Murgia Timone film panorama; bring 2 litres of water per dog in summer, no fountains on the trails.
