In the beautiful setting of the medieval town of Burgos, with its castle and the wilderness of central Sardinia, you will experience the ancient art of milking at a farm.
Among exotic and local animals, you will get to know the Sardinian sheep, learn the ancient art of manual or mechanical milking, and visit this special farm with an international atmosphere. At the end of your experience, you will taste genuine local products.
An unforgettable experience that will bring you into close contact with the wonderful animal world and guide you through the roots of Sardinian rural traditions, combining moments of learning, fun and taste.
In the proximity of animals, it is essential to maintain a calm and respectful behavior, avoiding shouting or abrupt gestures, as they could easily become frightened. A calm attitude will help make them feel safe and comfortable.
The tour begins with a welcome from the hosts, who will take you on an illustrative walk around the farm. You will meet and learn about many animal species besides the Sardinian sheep: llamas, alpacas, peacocks and many varieties of birds from all over the world.
