What you can expect

In Barumini, a small village in the countryside of Marmilla, the most famous Sardinian nuraghe called Su Nuraxi, lies on the top of a hill. Thanks to its exceptional state of conservation and the complexity of its structure, it was named the island's first UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997.

The nuraghes have become a symbol of the island culture and a source of pride for Sardinians. On the tour, a local guide will show you Su Nuraxi's five towers (one in the middle and the others around it), the city walls, and the ruins of an ancient village.

After the tour of Su Nuraxi, continue to the Casa Zapata Museum, where the ruins of the Su Nuraxi ’e Cresia are enclosed. The nuraghe is located in the heart of the town of Barumini and has been used as a foundation for the construction of a 15th-century Spanish noble house.

End your day with a visit to the Domus de Janas, a necropolis from the Neolithic period. Admire the surrounding landscape while soaking in the ancient history of the island. The tour concludes back at the meeting point in Cagliari.
