Piazza Civica

The square of the aristocracy of the past. This square was built around the 13th century and was the meeting place of the bourgeoisie of the meeting. It is a beautiful square from which the tour begins. From the Palazzo de Ferrera, in 1541, Charles V, emperor of Spain, stayed.

Quartiere Ebraico

The old quarter of the Jewish community of Alghero. The Jews of Alghero were Catalan Jews, coming from Catalonia since the 14th century. At the time, there were only two communities in all of Sardinia: one in Cagliari and one in Alghero. The Jewish community of Alghero ceased to live here in 1492, the year of the Decredo de l'Alhambra (anti-Jewish edict)

Cattedrale di Santa Maria

Definitely would recommend this tour and the fabulous Kevin as a guide who was super friendly and knowledgeable. Kevin is from Sardinia but has one English parent meaning he has great English. He picked us up from our Airbnb and dropped us back here. The wine tour and archeological option were both fantastic!

We started our tour with thoughtful and interesting visit of the old Alghero city. Kevin, our guide, was thoughtful, smart, charming and gentle. He speaks English and Italian perfectly, among other languages, making him an easy companion. Our second stop was to the winery where we sampled some delicious wine and food under the care of the lovely sommelier Loredana. A comfy car trip ended the tour - we didn't even have to worry about driving. Nice fun, a few giggles and attention to detail makes this a trip worth trying.

It was a great trip around the old city, the guide was really good and had a lot of exciting information. The wine tasting was also just fantastic, a lot of good information about the wine production and very good wines.

This was a great tour. Kevin is a lovely guy and very knowledgeable. We did the wine and archeology tour - really enjoyable - the winery guide, Lori, was so sweet and the wines with cheese and meats was delicious. Kevin used to work at the archeology site and it was fascinating - overall a great trip.

We did the Archaeology and Wine tour starting the day at the Nuraghe Palmavera village. The visit was very interesting, and we learned a lot about the Nuraghe people, their lives, and their house building methods. When visiting the winery, we got to see the full production processes and learn about the different aspects of producing wine. That made the tasting afterwards especially interesting. Kevin knows everything about Alghero and answered all our questions. He took very well care of us, and I recommend joining this tour.

This experience was definitely the highlight of our holiday! We wanted to go for a wine tasting experience but we didn't expect it so wonderful... Kevin, our guide, showed us the city of Alghero explaining really curious facts about the town... Then we went with him to the wine cellar of Saint Maria Palma, where we saw how wine is produced... our little kids enjoyed getting inside the factory. The wine tasting was the icing on the cake. With Kevin we had no worries about driving back after drinking 3 wines. It was really worth it!

Io e mia moglie siamo andati in Sardegna per una settimana, e quando siamo arrivati ad Alghero abbiamo deciso che valeva la pena visitarla con un tour guidato. Eravamo inoltre interessati a visitare qualche cantina, quindi questo tour ci è sembrato al caso nostro. Kevin è stato una guida eccezionale! All'inizio del tour ci siamo trovati al centro della città di Alghero, dove ci ha portato a visitare i monumenti più importanti senza mai annoiarci. Abbiamo anche visto alcuni angoli nascosti molto suggestivi. Ma la parte più bella è stata certamente la visita alla cantina, fuori dalla città. Siamo andati con Kevin e presso l'azienda ci ha accolti Loredana, la guida della cantina Santa Maria la Palma. Abbiamo visto tutta la filiera produttiva del vino, visto l'imbottigliamento, il boxing ed infine degustato dei fantastici vini locali con un aperitivo tipico sardo. Che dire, vale davvero la pena!
