Tofino Expeditions Announces New Wild Sardinia Kayaking Tour for 2015

La Maddalena Archipelago, the best kayaking in the Mediterranean

(I-TravelNewswire.Com, September 18, 2014 ) SALEM, Ore. — Tofino Expeditions, a veteran sea kayaking tour company, announces a new and exciting 2015 itinerary to Sardinia. This unique nine-day tour is a feast for the senses, featuring some of the best kayaking in the Mediterranean as well as a journey into the heart of Europe’s last great wild island to discover its history, culture and gastronomy.

Sardinia is regarded as an autonomous region of Italy, but this land is a world apart. As the second largest island in the Mediterranean Sea, Sardinia is defined by a rocky landscape with long, white-sand beaches surrounded by a clear, turquoise sea. The history of this ancient island can be traced back to before the Phoenicians, a culture that is still reflected in their customs today.

Inspired by client feedback from Tofino’s successful Kayaking the Italian Riviera and Cinque Terre tour, the company wanted to give travelers a more in-depth look at Sardinia’s largely unspoiled natural world. Guests will paddle along the beaches, cliffs, grottos and giant sea caves in the magnificent 20-mile arch of the remote Gulf of Orosei. Drive into the heart of the rugged Supramonte Mountains and hike the Gorropu Gorge, Europe’s greatest canyon and now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Explore impressive bronze-age Nuragic ruins and discover the Spanish culture in Alghero, along with many other breathtaking sites.

For those who love tasting local fare while traveling, Sardinian cuisine will surely impress your palate. The island is known for its use of fresh, seasonal ingredients as well as its flavorful, full-bodied wines. This exclusive program incorporates primo locavore dining at local Agriturismos and rural restaurants, providing authentic farm-to-table experiences. Along the way, guests will visit small wineries to sample ancient Vermentino and Cannonau grape varietals in distinctively diverse wine-growing regions.

The Italy – Kayaking Wild Sardinia trip departs in June and September of 2015. Guests must be at least 14 years old to accompany the tour. Cost of trip is $4595 per person. For more information or to book this trip, visit www.tofino.com or call 800-677-0877.
