Sylvia is an excellent guide! - Sylvia was an excellent tour guide, showing us the highlights or old town Cagliari with knowledge and humor. One note: Although it was advertised as an English tour, it was actually in both Italian and English. So we ended up standing at each stop for some extra time which Sylvia translated her comments. It wasn’t a problem but not quite what we expected. Overall, worthwhile!

Recommended! - Maggie was a great tour guide, and has been able to tell us a lot about the city. Since we had 2 small children with us, it often did not go so fast, but thanks to Maggie was no problem at all. Thank you for two interesting hours and the nice travel companion!
