This was a wonderful experience for us! Melina was a fantastic guide. She provided an immense amount of historical background for Tiscali and Sardinia. She was constantly checking with us about our comfort level with the hike. We hiked on a cold January day but it didn’t matter. The scenery was still beautiful and Tiscali was very interesting. We are very glad we chose this hike as well as so pleased with our guide.

Our guide Paolo was Excellent! Very knowledgeable about the area. Most importantly he was very good in navigating our dingy in unsettling waters. My wife and I felt completely safe. we would wholeheartedly recommend this excursion. We came in Feb but I'm sure in the summer the experience is even better with warmer weather and less unpredictable weather. Thank You Paolo!

It was a beautiful trip. Paolo was an excellent guide! He accompanied us and told us about the island at all times. He shared a toast with us and some delicious homemade snacks. We had a wonderful day! 100% recommended!

Nice way to get an overview of the bays and beaches, and try each for a bit. Good value for money, don’t miss out on impressive cave!

Class day even those only seen the dolphins from far. Definitely worth the money and a real enjoyable afternoon.
