Overview

Make the most of your stop in Cagliari and disembark your cruise ship for an exciting 4 hours private shore excursion. Explore the best of the city of Cagliari with the eyes of a local in our walking and hop on - hop off tour. Choosing the underground 5 hours option, you also have a unique and unexpected experience, a journey through the history of Cagliari between the cavities of the underground city. We will visit the underground areas that tell Cagliari's history, mysteries, and legends in an atmosphere full of charm. The Underground Cagliari is an unusual and exclusive experience: hidden under the layers of the modern town; there's a whole world made of caves, crypts, and galleries. They have been given back to the city after many years of restoration work and have been exciting destinations for locals and tourists ever since.

Catedrale di Santa Cecilia

Built-in the 13th century in the Pisan-Romanesque style, it later transformed the Gothic, Baroque and Neo-Romanesque style. Under the presbytery, the Crypt-Sanctuary preserves the relics of the local Martyrs. With a Latin cross plan, the interior of the church has three naves with a transept and side chapels. On the right side, into the Aragonese Chapel, is preserved a precious relic that, according to the tradition, belonged to Jesus crown, which arrived in Cagliari in 1527, with other relics and artworks stolen from various churches in Rome and the Papal apartment. A moment before its arrival into the harbor, the ship bumped into a storm. Someone knew that into the ship there was precious cargo, and driven by the conviction that the storm was the expression of divine wrath for sacrilegious theft, confessed the fact to some religious that were on the ship who, once arrived in Cagliari, informed the archbishop of what happened.
