The 35-minute drive is beautiful and scenic, which will make the ride seem short. Your guide will be giving you information throughout the excursion.

Su Nuraxi, Barumini, Italy Su Nuraxi, "The Nuraghe" in the native Campidanese language, was a settlement built in the 17th century BCE and was inhabited until the 6th century. Nuraghe is a type of megalithic tower-like structure. You will have approximately 2 hours to explore the archaeological site of Su Nuraxi. Professor Giovanni Lilliu discovered the Nuragic village in the 1950s. Although this nuraghe's real function is still not known, it could have been any number of things, including a fortress, a religious site, a refuge, or even the place of parliament. The entire village consisted of towers and between 40 and 200 huts, used for local leaders, workshops, kitchens, and agricultural processing. A sewage system and a paved square with streets appear to have been built during the 9th-8th century. Throughout your experience, your guide will be with you to share information about the sites you visit.
At the end of this exciting adventure, your fantastic guide will return you to your cruise port in Cagliari. 120 minutes
