Experience Details

This private experience explores the authentic inland landscapes of Gallura through cork forests, hidden granite villages, archaeology, and local traditions deeply connected to Sardinia’s rural identity.

Accompanied by your personal local guide, you will discover a quieter and lesser-known side of the island, far from the coast and the crowds.

The journey includes ancient cork oak forests, the evocative Giants’ Tomb of Pascaredda, panoramic landscapes of Alta Gallura, traditional villages, and authentic local food experiences.

Rather than a standard sightseeing tour, this experience is designed as a slower immersion into Sardinia’s nature, history, and rural culture, where landscape and local life remain closely connected.

The experience is entirely private and can be adapted to your pace and interests, combining nature, archaeology, gastronomy, and hidden inland Sardinia. Some attractions have optional admission fees, please refer to the "What's Excluded" section for details.

Olivastri Millenari di Santo Baltolu

In the countryside near Luras, a group of ancient wild olive trees (olivastri) stands as living witnesses to millennia of Sardinian history. Among them is one of the oldest trees in Europe, estimated to be over 3,000 years old. Visiting these majestic trees is a powerful and contemplative experience, connecting visitors to the deep natural roots and timeless beauty of the island’s interior.

Museo Etnografico Galluras "La casa della Femina Agabbadora"

Located in the heart of Luras, Galluras Museum is a traditional stone house turned into an ethnographic museum. Its rooms offer a vivid glimpse into rural life in 19th- and early 20th-century Gallura, with original furnishings, tools, and objects of everyday use. One of its most intriguing features is the unique “Femina Agabbadora” room, dedicated to a mysterious historical figure linked to Sardinian rituals. A fascinating stop for those who want to understand the island’s deepest cultural roots.

Museo del Banditismo

Located in Aggius, the Museum of Banditry (Museo del Banditismo) offers an engaging insight into one of the most dramatic chapters of Sardinian history. Through documents, photographs, and relics, the museum traces the social, political, and cultural context that gave rise to banditry in the island’s interior. The exhibition also explores how legends and real events merged, leaving a strong mark on local identity.

30 minutesAdmission Ticket Not Included

Osteria del Borgo

During the day, guests stop for lunch in a small traditional osteria nestled in one of Gallura’s hidden granite villages. Surrounded by stone alleys, warm interiors, and a relaxed local atmosphere, they enjoy a simple yet authentic Sardinian meal featuring local specialties such as handmade culurgiones, regional cheese, traditional bread, and local wine. More than just a lunch stop, it is a chance to slow down and experience the genuine atmosphere of inland Sardinia, far from the coast and the crowds.

1 hour 30 minutesAdmission Ticket Included

Tomba dei Giganti Pascaredda

Hidden among cork oak forests in the hills of Alta Gallura, the Giants’ Tomb of Pascaredda is one of the most atmospheric archaeological sites in northern Sardinia. Surrounded by ancient trees and granite boulders, this Bronze Age funerary monument offers a rare sense of connection between nature, history, and local identity. Unlike more visited archaeological areas, Pascaredda preserves a quiet and almost untouched atmosphere, making the visit feel deeply authentic. Walking through the forest and approaching the curved stone exedra slowly emerging among the trees is part of the experience itself.
