TUK TUK TOUR OF OLBIA

WHAT WILL YOU DO :

Olbia has a very ancient history, as evidenced by the monuments and archaeological remains left by the Nuragic civilization, the Phoenicians, the Greeks and the Romans who favored the birth and growth of this city on the north-east coast of Sardinia.
If you want to discover the city with a touch of originality and creativity, we offer you a panoramic tour by tuk tuk with five stops to visit and admire it like a local.
On board our tuk tuks we will travel through the narrow streets of the historic center and reach the monuments and attractions covered

These activities are not suitable for infants 0-2 years.

TRIP DETAILS

This tour can be booked either in the half-hour option (a non-stop tour) or in the full one-hour option with stops.

The Basilica of St. Simplicius, an imposing Romanesque church built entirely of granite, dates back to three construction phases ranging from the 11th to the 12th century.

The Church of St. Paul, dating back to the 17th century but completed in the 18th century, is located in the city center. It is entirely made of granite and is admired for the beauty of its dome, decorated with multicolored majolica tiles.

The historic center of Olbia and its main street, Corso Umberto, are lined with early 20th-century buildings, traditional shops, boutiques, restaurants, and bars—perfect for a tasty break. Alongside the main street, we will explore ancient alleyways by tuk-tuk, passing close to 18th-century homes.

The Roman Aqueduct, one of the most significant remnants of Olbia’s Roman history, was a crucial infrastructure of its time. It enabled the water supply from nearby Mount Cabu Abbas (its name itself suggests the presence of abundant water springs) to the city center.

Not far from the aqueduct is the Roman Cistern, used for collecting rainwater, another important architectural testimony of the Roman period.

Fausto Noce Park, the green lung of Olbia, spans eighteen hectares and is the largest natural park in Sardinia. In 2005, it was awarded as the second-best green project in Italy. The park features numerous Mediterranean plant species, benches, fitness trails, sports facilities (tennis and soccer fields), an amphitheater, fountains, and artificial lakes.
