About this experience
As featured on Netflix show "Down to Earth" with Zac Efron. Discover a small village in Sardinia: Aritzo. Enjoy the local lifestyle by joining a Family Experience. It is unique of its kind: a whole day in close contact with the community of a small town in the heart of Sardinia! We will walk around the town, meet locals, share secrets of long-life, learn how to prepare some traditional delicacies and visit a tiny museum.
The mountain areas of central Sardinia include so-called blue zones, known for its high percentage of elderly people. Many research seem to show how this relates, among other things, to strong family ties. We will be happy to witness life of a real, existing family entourage in a well preserved Sardinia village.
