We had so much fun on this wine tour, recommended to us by a work colleague from Cagliari. Our guide Franco spoke excellent English, collected us from our hotel and showed us a great time. This really is a beautiful island. The wine was delicious as were the local accompanying cheeses, salami and bread. Bought three bottles to take home with us! Enjoyed meeting Giuseppe and being shown around his wine estate, he was a fantastic host. Would definitely recommend this tour!

Even the two hour quad tour takes you through varying terrain and amazing landscapes. The views of the ocean and the coast are stunning both from near and afar. Riding a quad is generally a very enjoyable experience. These things are super sturdy and can handle any trail. The guide ensures the trip is safe, fun, and the participants learn a little bit about the area.

The panoramic tour of Cagliari is a unique opportunity to admire the city from the panoramic points and to learn more about its history and the island. The viewpoint on the hill of Monte Urpinu will offer us an unforgettable view of the Regional Natural Park Molentargius-Saline, one of the largest and most important wetlands in Europe. Here we will have the chance to admire the magnificent pink flamingos, symbol of the city. The tour will continue to the Poetto beach, overlooked by the promontory of the Devil’s Saddle, symbol of the skyline of Cagliari. The tour will go on with a walk around the narrow streets of the ancient medieval town of Castello which will allow us to enjoy the beauty of the Cathedral, the Royal Palace, the Bastions and the Medieval Towers.

The ancient city of Nora is one of the most important archaeological sites on the island. Its particular location on the coast facilitated the settlement of the Phoenicians in the VIII century BC and after of the Carthaginians, but it was in Roman times that Nora experienced its heyday becoming the first capital of Sardinia. We will discover together the old neighborhoods, the luxurious villas decorated with mosaics, the baths, the temples, the ancient cobbled streets and the splendid theater. Not only archaeology, but also relax! The entire area is surrounded by a breathtaking landscape, perfect setting for taking amazing photos, which will be part of your memories, with the Tower of Coltellazzo standing in the background and a golden beach that leads us to the church of Sant’Efisio, one of the most beloved saints by Sardinian people to whom is dedicated one of the longest procession in Europe which takes place at the beginning of May.

Inclusions: Experienced guide

Exclusions: Tickets entrance for the archeological site

We visit the four historic districts of the city: we will talk about all the past cultures that have shaped the present. There will be breaks for photos! If you prefer the two-hour tour you can visit Poetto beach, the lighthouse of El elia, the small marina and the flamingos! No hurry.

We originally booked a one hour Tuk Tuk city tour with Alberto but liked the tour so much that we extended the tour to another hour to take in the beach and the flamingoes. Albert was a brilliant, knowledgeable, fun guide and gave us some great insider knowledge on Cagliari. The Tuk Tuk tour is a great, fun, original way to see the city and I would thoroughly recommend it.

The tour underground Cagliari is an unusual and exclusive experience: hidden under the layers of the modern town there's a whole world made of caves, crypts and galleries. Must see is the Tunnel – Shelter of the Salesian School, a long private gallery used during the II World War as a shelter to the school students from the bombings. Today the gallery almost looks a mystic place with its red-bricked arcades, enlightened by soft candle lights.

Inclusions: Local Guide
