Orgosolo & Shepherd's Lunch

Información

You’ll get a first-rate introduction to authentic Sardinia on this full-day tour. Heading inland to the Barbagia region, you’ll learn about the island’s rocky and sun-kissed interior. Your first stop is the pocket-sized village of Orgosolo. This place is right in the heart of the mountains and it was a hotspot for notorious bandits in the 19th century. You’ll set out on foot to explore the narrow alleys and streets with a local guide. Today, it’s the 150 murals which the village is known for. They decorate walls, houses and rocks throughout the streets – themed around local struggles and international events. After, you’ll head for the countryside for a traditional shepherd’s lunch. There’ll be fresh cheeses, salami and roast pork. You can finish the meal off with a glass of red wine or the local tipple of Mirto, while sitting in the shade of surrounding olive trees.
