Great tour - My sisters and I were very impressed with this tour. Our guide Maggie was very knowledgeable and spoke in Italian & English which was much appreciated. She explained many interesting facts along the way. Once the tour was over she shared Sardinian food and wine culture and some must try dishes. Thanks

Very disappointing. - Our guide, young, I thought Valentina, spoke very slurred coal English. Left Italy's faulty role undiscussed when it came to the bombings in the war and blamed the USA and the UK for the deaths in the bombings. The 1st spot, under the school was quite original to see with all the candles. The 2nd was just a crypt that anyone can visit for 3 euros and the 3rd spot was a museum for everyone for 5 euros. You actually pay 22 euros extra for the guide. I would say...more showing, less talking! Endless old whore stories about the Phoenicians and the Vandals...... hard to follow. Definitely NOT recommended!

Very disappointing - Far too few places to see (150 m underground without particular interest and a crypt interesting on a historical level but not very beautiful) On the other hand, far too many explanations sometimes difficult to follow because not in our mother tongue. The museum interesting but also explanations far too long. In short, over 2 hours of visits, there are 15 minutes of interesting things to see and 1h45 of speeches!
