What to expect
Expect a moderate walking tour across uneven terrain between multiple nuraghe sites. Your guide will explain the construction methods and social function of these towering stone structures—some still standing to full height, others reduced to foundation rings. You'll pause to taste local Sardinian wine and eat light refreshments whilst taking in views across the countryside. The pace is steady but manageable; bring proper footwear and water (supplies included). Most groups visit three to four major sites depending on condition and interest.
