Many excursions
Arzachena
The tour starts in north Sardinia, in Arzachena, 27 kilometres north of Olbia. The territory of the commune of Arzachena stretches for a surface area of around 228 m² and includes a spectacular coastline of approximately 80 kilometres filled with countless bays and beaches.
The area is known for the presence of “stazzi”, rectangular houses in Sardinian granite, consisting of 1 or 2 rooms, originally used by shepherds as a stopover or shelter on their journeys. Through the years most of them have been transformed into houses or agriturismi.
Olbia-Tempio has more to offer than utter relaxation on a sandy beach. Climb the Bear Rock in Palau, a massive cliff of red granite sculpted by the wind resembling a bear; visit one of the Vermentino wineries or the Cork Museum. Some of our suggestions: take the ferry to the archipelago of La Maddalena; stroll through the authentic mountain villages of San Pantaleo and Tempio Pausania; explore Sardinia's past by visiting one of the numerous archaeological sites in the area; book a passage to Bonifacio on the French neighbouring island Corsica.
The first 3 nights of the tour you will spend in Tenuta Pilastru in Arzachena, a lovely agrihotel with pool in a beautiful landscape.

Oliena
To truly experience versatile Sardinia, you'll be travelling southwards to the province of Nuoro. A stay in this pristine province immediately shows why Sardinia is one of five “blue zones”, a demographic and/or geographic area with the highest longevity. The landscape consists of hills and high mountain peaks covered in lush Mediterranean vegetation. The many country roads lead to the Gennargentu mountain range, natural waters or to the local shepherds. In the authentic mountain villages you can discover the real Sardinia; exceptionally hospitable, with a rich tradition, an excellent Sardinian cuisine and tasty Cannonau wines. Through the years neither the Romans, Carthaginians nor any other foreign conquerors have succeeded in invading this area, because of which it's been able to develop its own culture. Nowadays Nuoro's unique folklore and traditions are still visible during the festivities in the local villages.
During your stay in central Sardinia we highly recommend exploring the hiking trails across the mountains, Europe's deepest gorge Su Goroppu, the nuragic village of Tiscali, the village of Oliena and the Su Gologone well and the colourful "murales" (murals) in Orgosolo. Cala Gonone, a lively seaside resort at a mere 40 minutes from Oliena, is definitely worth a visit as well. Two must sees when you're in the area: the Bue Marino Caves and the hidden bay of Cala Luna, only accessible by boat or by foot.
We have booked 3 nights' bed & breakfast the spectacular Hotel Su Gologone, a hotel with pool in a tranquil yet spectacular location. Three keywords for your stay here: rugged nature, authenticity and an excellent cuisine.

Castelsardo
After breakfast you leave for Castelsardo, at approximately 60 kilometres from Alghero. This town has transformed into a popular holiday destination because of its strategic position on a hill, overlooking the Gulf of Asinara. The city has preserved its medieval fortress structure and ancient walls, serving to protect the city from attacks over sea. The castle, set on top of a hill, was built by the Doria family in the 12th century (the same Genovese family responsible for the foundation of Alghero). The city was called “Castelgenovese” or “Castel Doria”, until it was conquered by the Aragonese in the 15th century, who renamed the city “Castel Aragonese”.
Despite the tourism the authentic ambiance of the historic city centre has been kept intact. Castelsardo is known for its narrow streets and piazzas. We recommend visiting the Castelsardo Cathedral, dedicated to Saint Anthony the Great, and the Church of St. Mary, where the people of Castelsardo celebrate a series of Masses and processions during Lunissanti, a festival on the Monday after Palm Sunday.
In Castelsardo there are numerous restaurants, bars and shops, where you can watch the weaving of the traditional Sardinian reed baskets. The city is located on the “Riviera del Corallo”, the coral coast. Most shops sell coral ornaments, jewellery or decorations.
The Roccia dell’Elefante, the Elephant Rock, a striking dark trachyte rock sculpted by the wind resembling an elephant, is definitely worth a visit, as well as the Catalan village Alghero, the province's capital Sassari and the Nature Park of Asinara, north of Stintino.
The last 3 days of the trip you'll be staying in the beautiful 4-star Hotel Bajaloglia Resort. A worthy final destination of your tour!

Perfecte rondreis als eerste kennismaking met de noordelijke helft van Sardinië

Goede afwisseling tussen binnenland en kust. Plezierig dat je minimaal in het hotel verblijft. Originele bestemmingen.
Hella en Rowan
Sardinië is een geweldig mooi eiland, dat we iedereen kunnen aanraden. Mooie combinatie van mooie kusten, rotspartijen en bergachtig gebied.
