Hi! I'm Melina, tiny apple in Italian, and I'd like to make you feel like a local on this beautiful island I have chosen as my home: Sardinia. Wanna join me? As a passionate Sardinia lover and specialist, I'm committed to sharing my passion with those who want to discover our territory and learn about our culture. Unfortunately, many people only know Sardinia for its crystal clear sea and long white sandy beaches. My mission is to show people from all over the world that Sardinia is much more than just "sea". I look forward to organizing unforgettable tours for you that will make you truly experience this Mediterranean island: Kilometers of walks without contact with civilization; meetings with locals to discover the island's traditions, crafts, food and wine, music; millennia of archaeology and history. . . Of course, all tours can be adapted to your own needs, so don't worry if you don't find the right tour, I will design a tailor-made one for you! I came to Sardinia in 2014. I grew up in the Spanish Pyrenees but my parents are German, so I have cultivated a passion for mountains and the study of languages since I was a child. I completed my training as a Trekking Guide in the Spanish Pyrenees with an Internship in Sardinia. The fusion of teaching and tourism has allowed me to settle here, where I work as an online and face-to-face language coach and as a multilingual tour guide. I speak 6 languages and I am also a passionate traveller like you! I see travel like a transformation that can change someone's habits and life as a whole if you encounter the right people and are open to give and receive. Protecting nature, collaborating with local communities and sharing unforgettable moments that become memories that stay for a lifetime are the key to my tours! For the safety and security of our guests in the mountains, rest assured to know I am a member of AIGAE (Associazione Italiana Guide Ambientali Escursionistiche), the most important national association in the sector. - Certified Tour Guide in Sardinia, license n. 2834, since 2018 - Certified Environmental Trekking Guide in Sardinia, AIGAE license SA631, since 2020 - Bachelor's Degree in Translation and Interpreting, 2006 - Master's Degree in Foreign Language Teaching, 2010 - First level of European School of Sommeliers, 2022 None

Why don't you slow down and let yourself be transported into another dimension, where time stands still and you can enjoy the small things with no rush? Come on a transformational tour dedicated to discovering the mysteries about Sardinia and its people but also, maybe, to discover something about yourself too! Let yourself be surprised, lose control and enjoy the ride. The highlight of this tour is learning about some of the secrets of centenarians. Sardinia is one of the world's Blue Zones, i. e. , the areas of the world where the concentration of very old people is highest. Food is one secret to this, but time and stress management are definitely important too. Enjoy what you're doing, don't get distracted! During the tour we'll dive into Sardinian history, back to the Bronce Age, when the Nuragic Civilization flourished on this island, drive around hundred-year-old cork oak forests and visit a special person with special knowledge about Sardinian pasta & ancient rites. Close your eyes and follow me!
-As our first stop after pick-up, we'll driving through a magnificent landscape, to visit a very special person, who'll lead us in a journey where time stands still. -On arrival to a Gallura farmhouse (stazzo) in an ancient village, you'll mix water and semolina to make ancient pasta while listening to stories & anecdotes. -After this is finished, we'll enjoy a special wine and lunch experience together. -Next, we'll get into nature, another secret of longevity, and visit the Giants' Tomb of Sa Pascaredda. Walking around peaceful woods to get to this archaeological site, you'll learn of the unique Nuragic Civilisation, its water cult, its amazing buildings and advanced society, as well as how this culture is still present in many people's souls. -Surrounded by centenary cork oaks, we'll travel even further back in time to a dolmen, a burial place of the Copper Age, around 3000 a. C. and enjoy the surrounding calm. -At last, we'll return to the original pick-up point. This itinerary could be customized.
