Carloforte and Sant'Antioco between history and beauty
Guided excursion in the oldest part of Sardinia to discover its traditions
The oldest part of Sardinia, to the south of the island, is a mix of history and traditions of surprising beauty. Discover the testimonies of the past together with an expert guide. Start with Carloforte, on the island of San Pietro and venture through the cobbled streets, falling in love with the colors of its buildings and the liveliness of the port. Experience first-hand the three souls of the city, the Ligurian, Tunisian and Sardinian, perfectly blended together, then delve into the centuries-old tradition of tuna fishing, still passed down from family to family today. In the afternoon, travel by ferry to Sant'Antioco, where you can visit the catacombs and the byssus museum, to understand how a fiber obtained from a mollusc can be transformed into embroidery and handcrafted fabrics. An experience to touch the heart of Sardinia first-hand, in contact with the richness of its past.
