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!

A brilliant experience and one of the highlights of our trip! Thank you to Isabella, Valerio, Rosanna and the rest of the family for hosting us in your beautiful home - We truly felt welcomed as friends. We had so much fun learning about Sardinian culture and making traditional culurgiones and malloreddus. We enjoyed coffee, breads, cold cuts and cheeses with honey, and our pasta with wine and profiteroles for dessert. We couldn't have asked for a more authentic experience. We also followed Isabella and Valerio's recommendations for Osteria Kobuta and Baccu Cardu, which were amazing. Highly, highly recommend! (We'd love to come again!)

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.

We had a lovely time with Rafaella, who showed us the city. She was patient with all our questions and even added some information to our earlier visit of Nuraghe Su Nuraxi. It felt like we were on a stroll with a friend.

Let's enjoy together the atmosphere of this city in the middle of the Mediterranean and live an incessant flow of unforgettable experiences. It takes little time to feel at home in Cagliari. Those who have already been here always want to return, to take a stroll in the old neighbourhoods amidst flowered balconies and parks where strawberries, lavender and peaches grow. Throughout history, different peoples arrived by sea and conquered the city before defending it themselves afterwards, only to surrender once again to new arrivals.The narrow streets of the old city always open up onto wonderful terraces where we can admire views over beaches and long stretches of water where thousands of pink flamingos wait for the sun to set before gliding over rooftops to astonish those who turn their heads up. The restaurants overlook small squares and keep intact the traditions of Sardinian cuisine. Cagliari is this and more, an ideal place where culture, sounds, flavours and aromas blend together.

Corona virus changed our travel plans and we ended up visiting Sardinia for the first time. Taking a couple of days in Cagliari was a great idea as the city is steeped in history with lots of interesting facts of historical importance. Emanuel knew all these things and brought us on a tour of his city with passion and pride. He introduced us to some of the local delicacies too and gave us great hints and tips for local restaurants and places to visit. He was knowledgable, friendly and very mindful of the social distancing measures that needed to be in pace for our tour to take place safely. He gave us some great tips for on stay in Putzu Idu (along the western coast) that did not disappoint! And finally he brought us to a fantastic local shop - Sapozi De Sardegna - for a wine and cheese sampling.....we went back a few times afterwards as the food was just amazing!
