What people are saying about Province of Olbia-Tempio, Sardinia

Great tour, beyond mass tourism. A maximum of 8 people are taken along, so the sailing boat offers a lot of space. The support was warm and familiar, communication was possible in English, German and Italian. The route can be customized to avoid the crowds of boats, especially in high season. The captain has 35 years of experience and uses this for the benefit of the guests. A dream landscape, crystal clear water, various bathing stops and beaches. Starters antipasti and pizza, the main course is cooked by the captain himself. Everything is local and included in the price, including the drinks! The wine was delicious ;-) Certainly a bit more expensive compared to other tours, but it's definitely worth it!!!

Great excursion. We stopped off at La Maddelena first and had an hour to explore then we were back on board to another island to enjoy the beach and sea. We had about an hour there then back on board for a delicious pasta lunch. We traveled to another island and saw the pink beach en route. We had about an hour and a half at Santa Maria Island to again enjoy the beach and sea. We arrived back to the port around 5pm.

Sailing trip for a day in the islands around Maddalena with Marco, Massimo and Chiara. A day out of time, between admiring the landscapes, swimming, diving, laughing, sharing a local meal carefully prepared by Captain Marco. We have a superb day, all the more pleasant in the off season and in small groups! Grazie Mile
