Truly outstanding - Wow! What an amazing underground tour! Absolute highlight of our time in Cagliari. Our tour guide was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and so passionate about his city. As a family with a 16 year old and 7 year he captured their minds too. We learnt so much and so glad we chose this tour. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this tour and company it's a must if you're visiting Cagliari. Thank you so much Sardinia Magic Experience!

Great underground tour - Our guide Francesca was very keen and did a great job. Her way of presenting the history of the different underground locations was the cherry on top of an interesting tour!

CALA DELLA TORRE - what I especially liked about Sardinia is the Pension Cala della torre with its team of animators (especially Nicolas and Alfredo , Jessica and Paulo). They all represent the beauty of Sardinia.

Fun tour, great tour guide - This was a great tour. I would recommend for a nice intro to Cagliari and Sardinia history. Make sure you wear good walking shoes as it involves a fair amount of walking to the three sites around the city, each underground of course. Our guide spoke great English and incorporated history with each site.

Great tour, knowledgeable guide - Our guide (Francesca, I believe) was very engaging, fun, and spoke great English. There are three sites that are visited with a fair amount of walking in the city in between them. We had a big group and it got a bit cramped at the first site, but that is the nature of the tour. The sites were very interesting and our guide gave a good history of each place. I think we walked about a mile or two total, so wear comfortable shoes and clothes. Our tour started right on time which was nice. I would recommend this tour as it informs about different times of Cagliari and Sardinia history

Fascinating, well-paced, unusual city sightseeing tour! - Extremely informative and friendly guide Sylvia had us all entranced with the history of the city, starting in the 20th century in a candle lit tunnel complex and then going back to pre and early Christian times at Crypta di Santa Restituta and finishing at Area Archeologica di Sant'Eulalia with many fascinating excavated Roman artifacts from 1st and 2nd centuries AD. Sylvia was very willing to answer questions and discuss aspects of the city, giving us a good insight into the history of Cagliari and Sardinia.

Metro - Exciting, dark, sometimes a bit of a trip. Eulalia we had already looked at before, but a second time with explanations could not hurt.

A Stifling Experience: Overcrowded and Underwhelming - The Underground Cagliari tour was just "okay" for me. The biggest issue was the overcrowding; there were simply too many people, making it difficult to breathe and quite uncomfortable. I found it challenging to hear the tour guide for much of the tour due to the crowd. Cutting down the number of tourists significantly would have made the experience better. I highly advise against going in the summer—the heat and stuffiness were almost unbearable. Additionally, the tour felt a bit dull, and the guides' English wasn't very strong, which added to the overall lackluster experience. I wouldn’t recommend this tour during peak tourist seasons due to the heat and crowding. However, it might be more enjoyable with fewer participants and cooler weather.
