The tour took us to a good number of places and we learned some really interesting things about the history of the island and the city during the war, as well as recent archaeological discoveries. It was particularly useful having the guide with 2 of the museums to explain the different things because otherwise there is not a lot of information on display. The only thing I would say is that it is quite expensive for what it is, and we had to pay extra for the admission into one of the museums.

We found the tour very interesting and insightful into the history of the sights. Our guide was wonderful very professional, friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. She change from speaking in Italian to English with ease, which was good as our Italian is very minimal. I would highly recommend this tour and guide.

It was a wonderful and insightful tour, discovering the little hidden underground areas found in Cagliari. Francesca was fantastic and so very friendly! She was very fluent in Italian and English. Her storytelling made the tour much more interesting and captivated our attention throughout the 2hrs.
