We had a great morning exploring the medieval districts of Cagliari with Walter. Walter was a great guide, giving an insightful tour and history of his city. Walter took us to some great locations that we would never have found on our own, with the guidebooks and local information on Cagliari not really highlighting many of the places that we saw with Walter. We loved how Walter was very kind and helpful. He also gave us a fab lunch recommendation. Thanks Walter for an ace morning of exploring. Off the beaten track in Cagliari

Very friendly and good knowledge of the city. Would have been nice to see a little more local stories, bars etc. We did the three hours and asked to do it in 2,5. We were finished in 2, so no need to do a 3 hour tour. Friendly, local and a little superficial

Our booking was very last minute but we were worked into the schedule thanks to Walter’s flexibility. He was extremely knowledgeable! He took the time to explain everything, was very easy to follow. We toured a lot, took breaks and were not rushed. He answered all questions and was very patient with our 9 yo son. He also gave us a fantastic restaurant recommendation. Thank you for sharing your majestic city and heritage with us! Highly Recommend

We spent a great afternoon with Walter tasting some traditional Sardinian foods in all sorts of different places. Apart from the eating itself, it was also good to get the background on the different foods. The people in the bars/shops where we tasted the foods were also very welcoming, friendly and helpful. On top of that, we covered history and culture as we walked between the different venues. Small and personal tours like this are a great way to see a city - much more interaction with the guide and therefore much more informative. And you can go at a pace that suits you best. I can certainly recommend Walter as a guide and should we be back in Cagliari, we'll call on him again!Tasty food tour

This was our second tour with Chiara and, as always, she was helpful and knowledgeable. Her obvious passion for her city shone through as we explored a number of crypts and other underground places in Cagliari. A highlight for us was the Museo del Tesoro e Area - without Chiara’s guidance and expertise this would not have been nearly as interesting. Excellent tour with knowledgeable guide

Walter shared the treasures of his home town — its food, wine, history, politics, and people— all on a relaxed and fun filled Sunday. He took us off the well traveled routes to quiet alleys, hidden pastry shops, and quiet cafes where local families were sharing meals. He even drove us to see the beach and the many flamingos. A truly wonderful experience. Thank you, Walter!Tasting the Real Cagliari

While travelling solo, booked the 10 tastings tour on the first day, with Riccardo. Best decision, as Riccardo is very knowledgeable about his home town! City history, best places to go to for food icecream and drinks, nice giftshops. Following days I revisited a few ofnthe restaurants because the food was so delicious. All in all a perfect 3hr stroll, thanks to the well travelled guide Riccardo ! Complimenti!Super tour, super guide

Walter was a really lovely friendly host. The whole point of a food tour is to however, enjoy the local food. The tour is misleading with 6 eateries mentioned. We ate: 1. A pizzeta (approx €3) 2. A platter if antipasti with cold cut meats and cheese with a glass of wine each (approx €20) 3. An amaretti biscuit shop (free samples) Even then Walter said we didn’t have to go to the last stop. Very expensive for €82 per person and whilst we had a good tour of the city, this was a food tour. We actually went out for food after! Great host but not enough food

We had some fun along the way, and very much appreciated the pace of the tour and the information he provided. We certainly recommend him as a capable guide. Awesome Cagliari City & Underground Tour

My wife and I were on a cruise with a one-day stop in Cagliari. We weren't sure how to take in all of the rich history and culinary traditions of Sardinia in such a short time. Then, we discovered Walter. He met us outside the cruise terminal gate, and and drove us to the highest of the seven hills surrounding Cagliari, where there was a walled-in city that dated back to the Roman era. We then proceeded to walk downhill along cobblestone streets and charming alleys enjoying the local fare, and even strolled through an open air market where we sampled many of the local foods. The price we paid meant that Walter paid for the food and even the wine that we sampled. We covered about seven miles of walking, eating our way down the hill. Of course, we were fine with the walking, and Walter had tailored this trip to our tastes. For those that want to walk less, he would assuredly tailor the day to your whims. Friendly Guide in Cagliari

I was traveling solo, so this was a great way to see the city and try local favorites. Riccardo went above and beyond to make sure I was enjoying myself and planned out stops by what I enjoy. He even introduced me to a cheese made me cry because it “WAS THAT GOOD”! Sorry about that Riccardo. 😅 If you’re thinking about booking this tour, just do it. You won’t regret it. He’s well traveled, personable, and knows his town very well. Best if you can do first day in town, so you know the area and can follow his other recommendationsLoved the food tour with Riccardo!

Riccardo took us to local delicacies and a great overview of their culture. Especially enjoyed the cookie shop, seafood stop and wine and appetizers at the last place. The meeting point closer to the cruise ship would have been better as we decided to walk the half hour to meet up… a winding route uphill. An enjiyable tour in Cagliari

I booked a private tour with Walter for a small group sailing together on a cruise. We met at a location convenient to walk to from the ship and got started right on time. Walter explained that our route would take us through all of the major neighborhoods in Cagliari, and explained a bit about the history and culture of each area. The focus of our tour was underground Calgiari, so we spent a good amount of time beneath churches and historical sites where ancient ruins had been found, and in some cases restored. It was fascinating, and we felt that we got a great value for what we paid vs a tour from the ship. I'm sure we covered more in 2.5 hours than the much more expensive 4 hour ship tour. Note: there is a lot of walking on hilly streets, so be aware. We did have one member of our group who skipped the last part because of knee problems, but if you can manage the walking, the views are well worth it! Walter was personable and fun, and interacted with the group in a very nice way, being sure to include everyone. We would 10/10 do it again, and if we return to Cagliari we will book another tour with Walter.More than we had hoped for!

Our group of four only had one day to visit Cagliari. Walter’s tour was the perfect overview of the town. While our tour was nominally a tour of the “underground,” he gave us lots of history and insight into what was above ground too. I don’t know that we’d have discovered the sites he shared with us without his guidance. Loved having an intimate group because we could ask questions relevant to our interests and previous knowledge so easily. His tour was really a fantastic finish to our visit to beautiful Sardinia.More than just underground - great tour!

We joined Riccardo for a private tour of Cagliari while in port from a cruise ship. We are not cruise ship people and prefer to wander and learn the history and culture where we stay. Riccardo gave us enough information about local churches and crypts and general history that we felt we’d stayed in Cagliari for more than an afternoon. He is wonderful, please do not miss an opportunity to spend a couple hours with him. Do not miss an afternoon with Riccardo!

We had the absolute best day with Francesca. It felt like spending a day with an old friend. The tour itself in terms of food was great - we were really excited to try some typical Sardinian foods and Francesca’s selections did not disappoint. We toured the local market and enjoyed fresh oysters, stood in front of a typical cured meat counter and enjoy wine and locally cured meats, stopped for coffee and finally finished the day for a tasting some some really traditional foods - including donkey! Don’t hesitate to book this experience. Thanks Francesca! A True Gem Of A Tour - Don’t Hesitate
