Stop At: Neptune's Grotto, 07041, Alghero, Sardinia Italy
One of the fascinating natural jewels in the entire Mediterranean basin, the grotto is a veritable geological wonder that attracts over 150, 000 visitors per year. It is accessible by sea or on foot via "Escala del Cabirol" ("Billy Goat Stairs'), a set of 660 steps cut into the cliffside. Inside the cave, carved out for millions of years by the water, there is the beautiful La Marmora lake, about 120 meters long, a tribute to Alberto La Marmora, the Italian geographer after whom it takes its name, who first of all explored these shores.
All around the lake, you can found numerous columns of stalactites and stalagmites that can reach a height varying from 10 to 15 meters. On the right, you can see, finally, a small beach, once used by the monk seals from the Central Mediterranean, species now extinct.

Stop At: Province of Cagliari, Province of Cagliari, Sardinia

We had a comfortable ride Along with our friendly guide Mateo destination of tour was the Caves of Neptune. The place is so magical beautiful to see and experience. One thing is to offer more bottle water during long tour hours incase customer ran out, other than that We strongly recommend Bitan Tours. Also best to pay a bit more when you book so you can be picked up at your hotel and best to stay in Chia where most of the beautiful beaches aré located (instead of Calgari).A truly breathtaking experience, we drove to the top of the cliff where you can park and climb down to the cave entrance at sea level.

A truly breathtaking experience, we drove to the top of the cliff where you can park and climb down to the cave entrance at sea level. It is an amazing climb along the cliffside, down 600 plus steps. It was very safe and manageable. You are met at the entrance to the cave where you p[ay 12 euros each for a guide tour through the grotto. It is amazing. the hike back up will get your heart rate up; however, there is not need to hurry and the views are spectacular.

Visite cadenzate ogni ora, ultima visita alle 19.00. Meglio prenotare per essere certi della disponibilità per rispetto norme COVID. Il prezzo è di 14€ a persona con visita guidata. È richiesto di presentarsi in biglietteria 40 minuti prima perché il tempo previsto per scendere gli scalini è quello ma in realtà ci vuole molto bene. Salire non è nulla di drammatico più o meno l’equivalente di 15 piani. La ragazza che ha fatto da guida: bella e preparata. Voce piacevole.au départ d Alghero, en bateau navette pour 15 euros ,apres 35 minutes de navigation,,,,,,l etrave du bateau s amarre dans l entrée de la grotte,deja cela nous stupefie. descente du bateau,petite surprise pour la visite 12 euros sont encore necessaire, mais une demi heure plus tard, un emerveille...

Lovely caves - quite large and beautiful, little cave- lakes inside. Also very impressive cliffs and the entrance to the cave. Unfortunately, there are large queues to get to the cave (you need to get a ticket at the entrance). And even everyone was squashed together for a long time in a queue without any masks before, as soon as you are inside the cave you must wear a mask. :) Also, most people were from the UK and France, but our guide spoke mostly Italian only, so most people didn't understand anything he was saying. It didn't spoil the trip but still a pity.We were picked up from our hotel and Matteo drove us 3 hours to the grotto and back.

We were picked up from our hotel and Matteo drove us 3 hours to the grotto and back. We visited the grotto, had lunch and then toured around the city of Alghero. He gave us some information about the grotto while we were inside and gave us a tour around the city. He was very nice, personable and an excellent guide. We highly recommend doing this tour especially with him!
