Cagliari Underground Tour: Caves and Crypts
With this tour, escape the crowds and experience a different part of Cagliari by heading underground. Benefit from the insider knowledge of your guide, who explains the significance of the caves, crypts, and tunnels you would otherwise never see. Meet your guide on Via Sant'Ignazio da Laconi near the Cagliari Botanical Gardens and visit the Salesian School tunnels used as bomb shelters during World War II—snap photos in the atmospheric tunnels today lit only by candles. Continue to the crypts of Santa Restituta, a natural cavern that became the home of martyr Restituta in the 5th century. Then, visit the crypt of Sant'Eulalia, an underground archaeological area near a historic church. Your tour ends at the museum near this church.
