Discover Castelsardo, a beautiful medieval town perched on a hilltop above the Mediterranean on this 5-hour excursion. En route to Castelsardo, we'll stop at Elephant Rock for a photo opportunity. The wind and elements have sculpted this large rock formation into the shape of an elephant's head. It is also believed to have been a prehistoric burial ground. The Doria clan of Genoa founded this fortified town in the 12th century. Today, Castelsardo is a prime tourist destination and center for Sardinian crafts. Explore the town on a guided walking tour that travels from the castle, to the 16th century cathedral, a exquisite example of Baroque design. You'll have time afterwards to shop for souvenirs, such as traditional Sardinian baskets.

Special Notes:

This tour involves extensive walking over uneven and cobblestone surfaces. It is not wheelchair accessible nor is it recommended for guests with limited mobility.

Bring Euros or credit cards for additional purchases. Wear comfortable walking shoes and clothing suited to the day's conditions.
