Experience Details*

Get acquainted with the sights and delights of Cagliari as you uncover the rich, interesting history of this beautiful city.

Sit back and let the streets reveal their charms as you climb up to the viewpoint of Monte Urpinu. Take in the magnificent cityscape, from the harbour on one side and the saltworks and Poetto beach on the other. Catch a glimpse of the 2nd-century Amphitheatre, one of the most significant remains of Roman Cagliari. Step inside the elegant Cathedral of Santa Maria and marvel at the baroque splendours of colourful marble, fine sculptures and stunning frescos. Visit the National Archaeological Museum, admire fascinating artefacts and trace Sardinia’s rich history through the Neolithic, Phoenician and Roman periods.

Afterwards, enjoy free time on Cagliari’s main street, Via Roma – the perfect spot to savour a freshly brewed coffee or a tasty gelato and browse for souvenirs.
