Our guide, Francesca, was well-informed and interesting, as well as a great source of recommendations for beaches and local restaurants for the smaller town we were based in. She easily adjusted her pace to suit our (much older!) walking speed. Highly recommend! Kay & Michael

Be swept away in the rich history of this ancient city dating back to the Neolithic to its current modern day charm. Our guide Anna was as insightful as she was animated while guiding us though narrow pathways to spectacular vista views. History mixed with folklore made this tour extra special! Thank-you Anna!

We were on the walking tour with Francesca. Overall the tour showed a good variety of the old city. The tour guide was very patient with the young child and very knowledgeable about the city’s history. Sometimes it would have been nice to have more recent facts or fun facts. Would recommend this tour.

We had an amazing time in the double Old Cagliari and Underground City tours with Francesca, who was very nice and helpful. It really helped us understand the history of the city and appreciate Sardinia in a new level. For a great price we had a very complete experience that wouldn't have been enjoyed without a guide.

Anna again let her passion for the city's unique history set the tone for this tour. The cathedral and its crypt is definitely a highlight, and lived up to the billing as Anna's favorite place. The best tour to get to know Cagliari.
