8 Days in Sardinia, incl. Cagliari and Costa Smeralda
An 8-day adventure through 8 Sardinian cities stretches from Cagliari to Olbia. Visit Cagliari's Roman Amphitheater, swim at Villasimius' pristine Simius Beach, and witness Neptune's Grotto near Alghero. Stays at 4-star hotels like Hotel Santa Gilla and Hotel Calabona include daily breakfast and car rental for approx. $190 per day.
- Day 1
Cagliari
Pick up your rental car at Cagliari Airport (plan for 45 minutes of paperwork). Visit the historic Castello district before 11 AM to beat the midday heat. The Roman Amphitheater is quieter in late afternoon. Smart move: Park in the Marina District and use the public elevator to reach Bastione di Saint Remy instead of tackling those hills.
- Day 2
Villasimius Day Trip
Drive an hour east to Villasimius. Get there by 9 AM to find parking near Simius Beach. The coastal road has great views but lots of curves. Take your time. Walk 10 minutes from Porto Giunco beach to see the flamingo pond. Bring water shoes since the sand gets very hot. Take the inland SS125 road back to avoid beach traffic.
- Day 3
Cagliari to Oristano
The 100km drive takes about an hour on the highway. Visit Piazza Eleonora early since shops close from 1-4 PM. Is Arutas beach is 20 minutes west. Bring €5 for parking. The quartz sand is rough so pack a thick beach mat.
- Day 4
Oristano to Alghero
Plan 2.5 hours for the coastal drive through Bosa. For Neptune's Grotto, take the boat tour rather than climbing 656 sunny steep steps. Book the first or last tour to avoid crowds. Use the Porto Terra lot for easy old town access.
- Day 5
Stintino Beach Day
Leave by 8 AM for La Pelosa beach before parking fills up (1,500 visitor limit). Beach mats and shower tokens cost €3.50 each. The shallow water is perfect for families. When it gets busy, try the quieter Saline beach nearby.
- Day 6
Costa Smeralda
Drive 2.5 hours from Alghero to Porto Cervo. Roads are good but navigation can be tricky. Download offline maps. Park at the marina (€2/hour) since public spots are scarce. The Piazzetta gets busy after 6 PM when it's cooler and shops open again.
- Day 7
La Maddalena Archipelago
Take the first ferry from Palau (15 minutes, €15 round trip, every 30 minutes). A local tip: September has warm water but fewer tourists. Want to find hidden coves? Book a small boat in advance.
- Day 8
Departure from Olbia
It's 40 minutes from Baja Sardinia to Olbia Airport. Get gas in Arzachena to save money. Return your car at least 2 hours early since the process can be slow in peak season.
Sardinia & Corsica Sailing Adventure
The crystal waters between Portisco's millionaire coast and Bonifacio's limestone cliffs set the stage for 8 days of sailing. Visit 3 key archipelagos: Maddalena, Lavezzi, and Caprera, with 4 nights of island-hopping. Activities include snorkeling crystalline coves, e-biking Maddalena Island, and scaling the 189 King Aragon steps.

What people love about 10-day Sardinia tours
This thril was fantastic, I would highly recommend it. Our skipper Noon was brilliant and made the trip so great. We had a great mix of people on our tour and it was a lot of fun. Noon cooked food for us and that was some of the best Italian food I have ever had. When we were at the harbours he took us to some fantastic restaurants and great little bars. The beaches and swimming spots each day were amazing, there was a lot of swimming and waking up anchored in quiet bays surrounded by islands was so nice. We went to Bonifacio and it was so beautiful there. We had some rough weather during our trip, but Noon chose spot to anchor or habours to stay at that were safe and out of the bad weather. My only slightly negative comments would be about the actual boat. One of the fridges didn’t work for the duration of the trip and the cabin area of the boat wasn’t overly clean when we boarded and wasn’t stocked with linen. Thankfully the next day we had linen supplies to us.
