Cagliari ArcheoTour
Sardinia is synonymous with beautiful beaches, crystal clear sea and countryside. But what about its history? What about its archaeological treasures? What about the cornerstones of its culture?
As an archaeologist, and not just a tour guide, I will take you on a tour of Cagliari's National Archaeological Museum and some of Cagliari's most iconic archaeological sites and monuments, a very important part of the city's history and mine as well. Unique places that will leave you with great memories!
After the tour, we will go down to the commercial streets of Cagliari for a free walk.
