Informative, low stress, and friendly! - Our tour guide Francesca was very accommodating and relaxing, even while giving us a very thorough tour of the old city. Given that we had some physical limitations, she recommended stopping for tea after a steep climb, which was lovely. It was very low stress and somehow she kept us on track timewise. She knew so much about Cagliari and answered our hundreds of questions with ease - including personal ones about her family who lived locally for generations. We most enjoyed seeing the fortress towers and the Villanova section of town with plants and flowers lining the narrow streets. Great tour!

Great visual historical tour of the 4 sections of Cagliari - Francesca was outstanding and knew much about her homeland,even dating back to B.C times. She answered every question we through at her, and gave an immense amount of information about Cagliari, even some of her personal viewpoints. She was punctual and courteous as well of an extreme pride for her country!

A beautiful experience - In the name of slowness and sympathy, led by the talented Silvia and despite the humid heat, we really discovered the heart of Cagliari. It is a succession of medieval views and suggestive belvederes in which sumptuous churches and aristocratic mansions are embedded. All within a military architectural construct of high quality. Congratulations to the group of guys of Sardinia Mag. Experts. who passionately offer an efficient tourist product.
