What are people saying about Sardinia

Maribelle_T, Jun 2026

We really had a great...

We really had a great time on this food tour! Bjorn was a great guide and we learned a lot about the city and the food in Sardinia. The food was amazing and we were so full by the end! Also worth noting is that when communicating with the tour operator prior to our tour, the customer service was really excellent.

Best experience ever!

The catamaran experience was amazing! Claudia and Simone did a fantastic job at navigating us through La Maddalena islands and finding the best spots to stop off for a swim. They even helped one of us who had motion sickness with getting them ginger and changing their lunch to accommodate without hesitation. The snorkelling masks and SUP boards really elevated the experience and we would 100% recommend this experience to everyone! Can’t wait to come back!

The coordinate where the Sun dances with the Water

How can a trip to Northern Sardinia be complete without an adventure to the magical waters of Archipelago? There’s plenty of boats, plenty of skippers and first mate’s…but you only get to embrace this moment once, maybe twice in a lifetime. Ask yourself can 1200 5 Star reviews be wrong? Take my money, twice, if need be. Skipper Fra and Steph from Australia via Germany couldn’t have made the day more magical. Drinks, the stops to swim, to paddleboard, the food, simply delightful. The playlist is worth mentioning; music heavenly. However, all of this pales to the atmosphere, the easy, kind, gentle spirit and energy and effort put in to ensure an amazing experience, a trip of a lifetime, in the Caribbean of Italy, La Maddelana and the islands surrounding the best waters in Southern Europe. You won’t regret it! Best day of our 12 day holiday! Thank you both! Ciao

Wonderful evening

Every part of this experience was fantastic. The setting was gorgeous, up in the mountains with incredible views. The ladies who ran the class were so friendly and kind and very good at teaching us what to do. The food was excellent quality, even the eggs were freshly collected that evening from the hens. The food they chose to teach us to make was so delicious and we’ll definitely be trying them at home!

Breathtaking views, great sailing experience

What a fantastic day trip. A definite must when in Palau. We were served snacks, a pasta meal and coffee and cake. Our hosts Uri and Ines went all out, making us feel comfortable. An amazing stop at the famous Budelli island (UNESCO site) pink sand beach, another stop for lunch and a third at a beautiful beach for swimming and relaxing. We even spotted dolphins in the water. What an incredible experience!

Superb day out.

Superb day out. Enough time in each spot. La Maddelena had a little look around the back streets, then just had time for a gelato after a cappucino. I wish I had had another gelato while we were there, because back in Palau where we stayed the next few days, it turned out the gelateria were all closed! The beach at Spargi was amazing, but then was surpassed by the beach at Santa Maria, Snorkelling was great to the side of the beach (saw needlefish, ornamental rainbow wrasse, and lots of more common varieties) Water such an amazing clear turquoise. For both these beaches there is an easy jetty to disembark on a walkway from the boat. In October the tour did finish almost an hour early, so we could have been given a bit more time at the beaches or in La Maddalena. I think in the summer maybe people spend longer swimming from the boat in the Budelli area, so perhaps that is why the timings were not quite accurate. At Budelli swim spot you are asked to stay close to the boat - a bit frustrating if you are a competent swimmer and want to go over to the rocks to snorkel. But I can see that for safety reasons the staff want to keep everyone together in a patch of water where they count heads. Most people stayed on board, but maybe a dozen of us went in the sea, down a ladder. Perhaps at each end of the season the timings for each point's departure need to be a bit different from in the peak season, longer at the first 3 stops and shorter at Budelli.

Amazing experience!

This tour was one of the best out of many tours we have done in the Mediterranean. Guiseppe and Salvatore were nothing but class. They welcomed us with a nice coffee before we hit the sea. Then from there we were able to stop at 3 incredible locations for a swim and relaxation. They were also very informative giving us facts about the islands as well as appetizers, lunch and some great wine! Would highly recommend anyone to do the tour!

Amazing, relaxing day

We had the most lovely time with Alberto and Pietro, who absolutely spoiled us. The beaches were amazing, pasta delicious, and we had plenty of space on the boat despite 11 attendees. We would definitely recommend this tour, the day was one of our favorites of the trip. Would not miss.
