We will pass along the Campidano plain, with its wheat fields and olive crops, till we reach the Marmilla region, known for its round shaped hills covered by wild flowers in springtime. In the smalltown of Villamar we will see the murals and sculptures decorating this typical village of South Sardinia.
"Su Nuraxi" is the UNESCO Heritage site in Sardinia, dating back to the Nuraghi culture. Its oldest section was built in the Middle Bronze Age (XV century B. C. ). It consists of a massive structure compounded by towers, walls and a village, and it is amazing for the perfection of its architecture me show you how the ancient Nuraghi people lived. Follow me in the narrow paths of the village to explore the houses and the breath taking main building. The first part of the visit consists in exploring the huts and the surrounding towers . The second part will be the most exciting: climbing the massive structure, walking along the narrow corridors in order to reach the internal courtyard and exploring the highest towers

One of the longest beaches in Europe, the Poetto is a sandy strip in front of the blue water of the Sardinian Sea. We stop so we can enjoy the view over the rock formation known as "The devil's saddle" while enjoying a coffee in one of the many kiosks along the beach. This is really like the Cagliaritani (inhabitants of Cagliari) do
Parco Naturale Molentargius-Saline
The pond of Molentargius it's famous for the beautiful pink flamingoes and the many species of birds living in the basins of the old saltflats. We stop for a pic so we can see the wild game at a close distance. I will explain you how the flamingoes got their colour, why they decided to come and stay here, how they live in this beautiful pond

We stop for a photo at the panoramic hill, with a great view over the city (the two medieval districts, Villanova and Castello) and the Gulf of Cagliari) . Downhill there is the Molentargius Pond, where we can see the spot the flamingoes nest (in June don't miss this stop, as flamingoes are feeding their babies). From the hill there is also a great view over the Gulf of the Angels and the Devil's Saddle. Don't miss a pic of the statue of Saint Francis
