Sea kayak and snorkeling wild Cagliari
Take a break from the bustle of the city, there is a fantastic world just around the corner! After a short briefing we first snake around huge boulders while the white limestone cliff gets higher and higher and the water takes every shade of blue. It is here that we realize that there's not a better way to explore this breathtaking corner than easily sitting on a kayak. On our route we find small beaches cutted into the cliff, bunkers of the second world war, caves and different kind of birds. Our destination is a sandy little beach, quite difficult to reach by foot because set into the rock, where we can stretch our legs and wear our snorkeling kits, there's another world to explore! On our way back we change perspective and our attention is captured by details that we had not noticed before, enjoying every single meter. Civilization is waiting for us, the good thing is that now we can have a well deserved drink!
Visit Cagliari with an Ape
sit comfortably, pampered by the crackling of the bee engine, ready to wedge yourself through the streets of the historic center. Yes: the streets are often narrow and some are unknown to most: the bee is the ideal way to learn about and discover a different city, otherwise, perhaps, invisible. Mrs. Marcella and her wonderful gardens in the Villanova district, the lord of the castle's capers , the residences of the old Spanish bourgeoisie and many viewpoints where to take fabulous pictures: just to mention a few things that will accompany us. We will visit the historic center (and the beaches if you like): we are not a driver and a passenger. I would like to share with you the luck of living these places. You will come back from this experience with many photos, a coffee in your stomach, several laughs and with the wonderful feeling of having lived Cagliari not as a consumer but as a traveler. Please consider that: if you want to visit old town but also beach area..book for two hours and then notice me! Other things to note If you want to visit both, old town and beach area (with flaminos) please book for two hours and notice it to me plaseee :)
Cagliari Cooking Class (handmade pasta)
We will do all the step to make the perfect culurgionis: from pasta making to cooking the meal: - pasta making (each person have his own bunch of flour) and will be able to make his own pasta dough, having the possibilities to handle the difference between each pasta. - stuffing preparation and tasting (peel potato, mix ingredients, taste) All ingredients will be place on the table and everybody will mix and taste and compare to the each others. A competition the will be a fun way to know the real flavor - closing culurgiones Once you learn closing colurgionis you will never forget..but to learn it's up to you, your patience, your concentration and you abilities. - drink wine (drinking and cooking always come togheter) and we always have to taste a good Sardinian white and a good Sardinian red - lunch/dinner together (with starters & wines) Once we are set up the table and put starters, we are ready to enjoy our work and have a typical Italian/Sardinian meal - pasta to take away (if you like and if you don't eat all) Other things to note Please advise about intolleance/allergic problem or other request on food. This experience is great for groups and for teams; a competition or challenge for making the best culurgiones or to guess the ingredients is some of the "tips" i used sometimes to make a great experience for team-building; Super funny also for kids
Autentic sailing tour aboard s/y Merak to the Devil's saddle
This experience is not the usual, commercial tour where you will feel like a dumb passenger on a boat powered by an engine!!! With us, you will experience a real hands-on sailing tour on a fast cruiser-racer sailboat, a Beneteau First 33.7. This boat has a vast sail wardrobe which allows us to reach the most beautiful coves of the area under sail, either in a light breeze or in more windy conditions: we guarantee the engine will be used only in absence of wind; and, best of all, Paolo, the experienced skipper, will show you how to steer and trim the sails. When we meet, Paolo will explain some basic safety rules, and then we will start the tour. The suggested destination is the "Devil's Saddle" promontory, so called after an old legend. We will drop anchor to swim in crystal clear waters in a wonderful cove, and, during the summer, will swim with you to discover the secret “Purple Cave”. While sailing, you will admire breathtaking landscapes and cliffs, which will be described in details. If we are lucky, dolphins will follow us during the navigation! Generally, the morning experience is gifted with light winds, making it ideal for a stopover in calm waters (which is ideal for swimmers), whereas the afternoon tour is ideal for sailing in stronger winds. In case of wavy seas, anchoring and swimming might be not possible due to safety reasons.
Cagliari Segway Sightseeing Tour
After a couple of minutes of training session to familiarize yourselves with the Segway, the tour of the city begins. It will take you around historical buildings, museums and breathtaking locations. What differentiates this tour from the others and makes it entertaining and unforgettable at the same time, is the use of segway which allows you to edge your way through the most hidden and fascinating alleys of the old city. Our guided tour focuses on all the artistic treasures which you will admire in total safety and with minimal effort. The route includes regular pauses for picture-taking at the highest and most beautiful points of the city. After a few minutes of driving the Segway, you will be mesmerized by the feeling you are flying over the pavement; the most difficult part of the tour will be to hop off the machine at the end! Get ready to fall in love… Other things to note I can reccomand you to bring with you just a little bottle of water during summer time. Departure point is Via Sant'eulalia 30 in front of NewwaySardinia.

Let’s go to the Market!!
We’ll visit Cagliari’s most important market and enjoy the taste of local products, meet our fishmongers, butchers, dairy and fruit & veg merchants, and discover together some truly Sardinian gastronomic traditions. I will let you discover and taste some typical products and almond-based desserts. The visit will end with a gourmet tasting of ham and cheeses, at one of the Market’s stands.

Laboratorio creativo di tessitura tradizionale sarda
La tessitura rientra tra quei mestieri affidati da sempre alla cura delle donne, che sta scomparendo, almeno dalle nostre parti. Con pochi gesti si recuperano millenni di sapere e personalmente la trovo una tecnica meditativa, un modo per rilassarmi. La tessitura è una parte molto importante dell'artigianato sardo, molto varia per motivi, colori e tecniche. Nel mio workshop vi guiderò alle tecniche base della tessitura attraverso una dimostrazione. I partecipanti saranno invitati a partecipare e provare l'emozione che si ha quando ci si sente di fronte al telaio. I materiali usati saranno tutti naturali e ovviamente forniti dalla casa. Durante il workshop sarò felice di comunicarvi tutta la mia passione e tutto il mio sapere riguardo la tessitura tradizionale sarda come si è evoluta e che futuro l’attende. durante l'esperienza vi sarà servità una merenda che potremo consumare insieme chiaccherando di tessitura tradionale
