About this experience

Discover Bosa, one of Italy's most beautiful villages, starting from the town of Alghero, in north-west Sardinia, along the coastal road that connects the two towns.

On board of a comfortable minivan, you will enjoy unspoilt landscapes, with photographic stops to capture the natural and faunal beauty of the coast. You will admire Sa Rocca Pinta, an extravagantly shaped rock formation, and with luck, you will be able to spot the griffon vultures that inhabit the area. In Bosa, the guide will take you on a tour to discover characteristic alleyways and colourful houses, and you will finish with a glass of Malvasia, a fragrant wine produced in the surrounding hills.

You will leave from Alghero in the direction of Bosa where you will stop for an hour to relax and take beautiful photos that you will take home with you. We will then visit the historic centre of the village and return to Alghero with a baggage full of emotions and unforgettable memories.
