Sun-Drenched Sardinia
A journey into timeless beauty
A land of striking contrasts, Sardinia is an island where rugged mountains tumble into turquoise seas, where centuries-old traditions endure, and where food is as soulful as the people who prepare it. Sun-Drenched Sardinia invites you to experience an extraordinary island that feels both timeless and surprising at every turn.
Spend nine days uncovering Sardinia’s natural beauty and cultural heart: from lively Cagliari, with its vibrant markets and noble palaces, to the wild interior of Barbagia, where ancient rituals and pastoral life remain untouched, and onward to the crystalline shores of the Costa Smeralda. Along the way, indulge in Sardinia’s culinary treasures – bottarga, Vermentino, artisan cheeses, and rustic dishes crafted with care – and share moments of intimacy with locals who carry forward the island’s enduring spirit. Every detail is curated with effortless elegance, weaving together landscapes, flavors, and traditions for a journey unlike any other.
Epicurean Sardinia
From bustling markets in Cagliari to intimate farm-to-table feasts in the countryside, Sardinia’s cuisine is a celebration of the land and sea. Every meal is an invitation to connect with the island’s history, traditions, and generous spirit.
The island’s wild heart
Sardinia’s dramatic coastlines, rugged mountains, and hidden coves set the stage for unforgettable experiences. Journey through Barbagia’s wild interior, cruise through La Maddalena Archipelago, and wander the island’s rolling vineyards and ancient olive groves, discovering the natural beauty that has inspired generations.
Living history and timeless rituals
From the masked Mamuthones of Mamoiada to the secrets of longevity in the Blue Zone, Sardinia is a land of enduring traditions. This journey offers rare, intimate access to the stories, rituals, and communities that make Sardinia truly unique.
