- 3 Nights in Chia

- 3 Nights in Porto Cervo
Day 1 – Transfer from Cagliari Airport to Chia
Begin in Chia, where Sardinia’s southern coast unveils itself in a symphony of turquoise waters, rolling dunes, and sunlit coves. Upon arrival, settle into your hotel of choice and feel time begin to slow as the golden sands invite you to wander barefoot along the shoreline. Let the first evening unfold at your own pace, watching the sun dip into the horizon with an aperitivo in hand or by greeting the night with a stroll beneath a sky washed in Mediterranean stars.
Day 2 – Cantine Argiolas Wine Experience
In true Italian fashion, Sardinia shall never let your wineglass go empty. Pair your stay in Chia with a guided visit to Cantine Argiolas, where every sip carries a glimpse of history. Feel the pulse of the island’s winemaking heritage in its fragrant cask-aging rooms, before bringing it to life with exquisite tastings and a curated meal of local specialties. Alternatively, set off on an immersive trip to Nora and Cagliari, where seaside ruins, medieval lanes, and elegant palazzi reveal Sardinia’s rich cultural tapestry and take you on a journey through time.
Day 3 – San Pietro Island | A Ligurian Gem in Sardinia’s Seas
Give into Sardinia’s tempting sapphire waters with a sailing journey to San Pietro, a volcanic isle sculpted by rugged cliffs and whispering sea caves. Wander amid fragrant Aleppo pines and inlets filled with songs of rare birds. Reach Carloforte, a town whose Ligurian roots and Tunisian past have created a culture as colorful as its harbor. Stroll through winding carrugi (alleys), pause beneath stone arches, and savor dishes where fresh fish and couscous mingle on the plate. Then, end your day at the island’s lighthouse, letting it guide your gaze across the endless blue.
Day 4 – Into the Heart of Sardinia | The Su Gologone Experience
Leave the coast behind as the road carries you deep into Sardinia’s rugged Supramonte, where olive groves, limestone peaks, and timeless villages turn the landscape into a work of art. There, nestled among said beauty, you shall find Su Gologone, a family-owned haven that turns each stay into an embrace of Sardinian soul. Here, every corner reveals a surprise: ceramics painted in vivid hues, alcoves adorned with local crafts, and a cuisine that brings traditions to the table. Check in, unwind, and let the rhythms of the land welcome you into a world where every day is an experience.
Day 5 – A Taste of the Mountains | Exclusive Experiences at Su Gologone
Speaking of every day being an experience, let this one unfold in the way that feels right for you. Perhaps with a sunlit picnic on the beach, where Sardinian delicacies are paired with the sound of waves. Or high in the mountains of Corrasi and Lanaitho, where rustic flavors taste even richer against sweeping views. And if you’re looking for deeper immersion, why not share a meal with local shepherds inside a pinnetthu hut, where the fire crackles, the bread is warm, and hospitality is as enduring as the land itself.
Day 6 – Secrets of the Supramonte | More Exclusive Su Gologone Experiences
There’s more? But of course! Today, the magic of Su Gologone continues, and it’s once again in your hands. Choose between chasing the sun to the summit of Mount Corrasi, where the day’s final light paints the Supramonte in gold and crimson. Or stepping back thousands of years at Tiscali, a hidden Nuragic village tucked into a collapsed cave, where Bronze Age ruins whisper of lives long past. Whether gazing at the horizon or uncovering ancient mysteries, today promises revelations shaped by land and legend alike.
Day 7 – Arrival in Porto Cervo | Gateway to the Emerald Coast
From the mountainous heart of Sardinia, your journey flows back to the sea, where Porto Cervo awaits with a shimmering promise of the Emerald Coast. A playground for jet-setters that’s still rich with Sardinian character, this glamorous enclave balances chic marinas, designer boutiques, and fine dining with stretches of cerulean waters that seem like an extension of the sky. Check into your luxury retreat of choice, relax, and let the sea breeze whisper hints of the coastal indulgence and discovery yet to come.
Day 8 – Flavors of the North | Cheese & Wine Indulgence
Awaken to the glistening sun amid Porto Cervo’s coastal splendor and embark on a quest for flavor through Sardinia’s proud wine (already a familiar delight by now,) and cheesemaking traditions. Head inland, to a family-run estate and taste wines that flow straight from the island’s heart, paired with cheeses and cured meats that tell the story of the land in every bite; if only you could pause between each one. Far more than a tasting, this is a flavorful reflection upon Sardinia’s unique character and timeless passion.
Day 9 – Emerald Horizons | Private Sailing to Caprera & La Maddalena
No journey to Porto Cervo is complete without surrendering to the call of its deep blue. Board your private yacht and set sail across the crystalline expanse of the Emerald Coast, where the islands of Caprera and La Maddalena rise like jewels from the sea. Glide into secluded coves, swim in surreal waters, and lounge on sands as smooth as silk. Should you wish, pause ashore for a seaside meal before returning to the deck and saluting the endless horizon.
Day 10 – Departure
As your Sardinian voyage draws to a close, let one final morning linger with the scent of sea air and the glow of Mediterranean light. From Porto Cervo, head to Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport, carrying with you memories of barefoot shores, mountain sunsets, and coves of striking blue. Sardinia has shown you Italy anew, and though you depart, the island’s spell ensures that it will never feel quite the same again.
