Full Day Excursion to Barumini & Giara In the centre of the Marmilla region, in the valley of the Mannu river, at the foot of the Giara, there is a special atmosphere: ever since prehistoric times, Barumini was the main centre of a very rich territory, with a population of approximately one thousand 300 inhabitants today. It is one of the most captivating places of culture on the Island. At the entrance to the residential area, there is a monumental complex that has made it world-famous: Su Nuraxi, the only archaeological site in Sardinia declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site (1997).
Not only is it the most impressive (and most well preserved) of the thirty Nuragic sites, but it is, above all, the most precious inheritance left to us by the Nuragic civilization. The archaeological excavations took place in the middle of the 20th century by Giovanni Lilliu. An inimitable spectacle of nature about 60 kilometres from Cagliari, in southern Sardinia: a plateau of volcanic origin, home to horses unique in Europe. An island within an island, a magical place with unique characteristics. The Giara is a basaltic plateau on the border between Marmilla and Sarcidano: it rises abruptly to 550 meters, dominating the flat surrounding landscape, undulated only by 'soft', fertile hills. On the summit, twelve kilometres long and slightly sloping, an ecosystem with rare animals and plants is preserved. Minimum participants: 9 € 149,00 per person. Includes bus, guide, tickets. Does not include lunch.
Proposal Full Day Excursion to Cagliari: The capital of Sardinia is steeped in Mediterranean atmosphere and offers everything you could want from a vacation: history and art, seashores and parks, comfort and fine cuisine. Cagliari is the main and most populous city on the island, at the Centre of a metropolitan area of 430,000 inhabitants (over 150 in the capital alone), as well as the gateway to Sardinia and the Mediterranean cruise hub.
In its four historic quarters, it preserves millenary events ranging from prehistory to the rule of the House of Savoy. The Castello district rises on the highest hill, characterized by ancient bastions, now terraces where the nightlife bustles, and picturesque narrow streets lined with noble residences: Palazzo Regio and Palazzo di Città, as well as the cathedral of Santa Maria. Of great charm are the medieval towers at the entrance to the castle, the Elephant and St. Pancrazio towers. Minimum participants: 9 € 129,00 per person. Includes bus, guide, tickets. Does not include lunch.
Half Day The “Museum town” of San Sperate An unusual tour to discover San Sperate, the so called “Museum town”, thanks to its colourful murals.
