Sardinia is on the wish-list of many people, but somehow often gets overlooked when it comes time to choose a holiday destination. Now you can get deep into the magic atmosphere of Gallura, the spectacular hilly area overlooking Costa Smeralda where some of most appreciated Sardinian tasty specialties are produced.

This is the land of Vermentino grapes, wisely processed following ancient traditions matched with modern technologies to create several varieties of precious white wine. But north-east Sardinia has a strong food identity as well, coming from ages of sheep herding and daily contact with a generous coastal environment merged with scenographic granites sculpted by nature.

As you travel, friendly local people will spice up your menu and invite you to cook with them before enjoying together a several-course Sardinian dinner.

A special tour offers a tasty introduction to this island off the western coast of Italy. You can discover the foodie side of north-east Sardinia with friendly locals, taste several varieties of Vermentino, the most precious Sardinian white wine, admire the spectacular countryside, and learn how to cook Sardinian specialities and taste them with a local family.
