Discover the Blue Zone of Sardinia in Urzulei and learn the secrets of longevity between slow life and pastoral traditions
Explore the Sardinian hinterland by jeep between mountains overlooking the sea, pastures and ancient archaeological sites
Meet local shepherds and discover traditional cheese processing and traditional Sardinian cuisine
Discover the secrets of the Blue Zone in Sardinia with a private tour to Urzulei, in the heart of Ogliastra.
This exclusive tour takes you to discover one of the territories with some of the oldest populations in the world, where uncontaminated nature, pastoral civilization and ancient traditions still coexist today in perfect balance.
Accompanied by a local guide, you'll explore spectacular landscapes, granite plateaus and lush forests where shepherds raise their animals in the wild, following ancient customs that contribute to the slow lifestyle typical of the Blue Zone. A comfortable off-road transfer will take you to remote areas of the hinterland, with views that mix rugged mountains, sea and ancient archaeological evidence.
The heart of the experience takes place in a farmhouse surrounded by greenery, where you will meet a local family: here you will immerse yourself in an engaging traditional Sardinian cooking lesson or you will learn from the shepherds the basics of cheese processing; finally, you will enjoy a lunch based on local artisanal products and meat prepared according to recipes handed down for generations.
An authentic and unforgettable journey, perfect for those who want to discover Sardinia through culture, tradition and genuine flavors.
