Aboard an off-road vehicle, you will reach the beginning of the trekking trail in Dorgali. From here your adventure will start along the riverbed that gave rise to the canyon within the lush Mediterranean scrub and, step by step, you will see the imposing gorge reveal itself in front of your eyes. Inside the gorge, you will admire the imposing rock walls and white limestone boulders polished by the elements.

Before returning, you will enjoy a delicious lunch of typical Sardinian products in front of the majestic canyon.

Activities

Guided tour of Costa Smeralda with Porto Cervo and beach time

San Pantaleo is known for its low-key rustic charm, with narrow streets and stone buildings that give it a traditional and authentic feel. The village square is the heart of San Pantaleo, and it is here that visitors can browse the small shops run by local artisans, selling traditional and unique handicrafts and Sardinian produce.In total contrast, Costa Smeralda is a sleek destination with Porto Cervo at its luxurious heart. Take a guided tour to see its marina packed with millionaire yachts and maybe mingle with the jet set. Soak up all the glamour from one of the pavement-side cafes, or in the designer shops and high-end boutiques.The last stop is Baia Sardinia, a glorious beach where you can enjoy some free time to relax, swim, or take a break in a beach bar. The fine sand invites you to linger, while the beach is bookended by rocky outcrops perfect for snorkelling or rock-pooling. We'll take a scenic route back to base with views over the coast and countryside.
