Walk In The Old Town Of Olbia, The Happy City
- Walking through the streets of the old town, flip through the pages of history right from when the Greeks laid its foundation stone, followed by the Punics until the Romans finally took charge.
- Discover how today's neighbourhoods are witnesses of ancient sanctuaries, necropolises and churches, surrounded by defensive walls that are barely recognizable today. Also referred to as the "Gateway of Sardinia", the town is of both touristic and religious importance, decorated with gorgeous beaches and beautiful countryside.
- The most important symbol of the religious architecture of Olbia is undeniably the Basilica of San Simplicio, which narrates the history of 1700 years, from its necropolis and underground temples to the Pisan Romanesque building. Wonderful curiosities and anecdotes of this city await you, and so does your local guide.
