Do not miss this excursion when visiting Cagliari! - Incredible adventure with tour guides Claudia and Barbara. They picked me up at my hotel in their vintage Panda and we ventured to San Sperate. What a magical village! Claudia shared her knowledge of the many murals in the village. Along the way, due to our tour guides’ relationships, locals stopped us to say hello and they invite us in to see their homes and stopped to chat. Do not miss this tour. It was one of the highlights of my trip to Sardinia!

Amazing tour and guides! A must if visiting Cagliari - Claudia and Barbara our guides were amazing. They took us to this wonderful little town of San Sperate . The whole town is a museum! The murals , the pictures , the little streets show a story that it's hard to compare with anything else. Not to mention the nicest people we have seen, all inviting to their houses , and their amazing courtyards .
Is you visit Cagliari, this tour with Claudia and Barbara is a must.
Thank you for an incredible day!

Village Mural Tour - I did this tour while I had a half day open before going in to the office and I’m glad I found it. The tour introduces you to Sardinian history, the artist culture in parts of the island, and even to locals (some of whom invited us into their homes!). I was really impressed with Claudia’s (the guide) knowledge and walked away with much more than I expected. I recommend for anyone looking for modern-ish sights mixed with much less modern history.
