Vacation in Sardinia

Filed in archive European insider on November 23, 2005

Is your palate as adventurous as your choice in travel destination? Are you willing to do "strange" things, eat interesting (to say the least) food?

If you answer a resounding YES, I have the perfect challenge for you. Head on out to Sardinia in Italy.

Sardinia is the second largest island in the Mediterranean. There are numerous reasons to visit this place. And while you are there, check in at the exclusive Villa Las Tronas for a taste of how the Italian Royalty lives.

Proud of your adventurous palate? Then, try out the local Casu Marzu or Maggot Cheese. Yup, this round of pecorino cheese is filled with thousands of wiggling maggots. Apparently, these creepy crawlers give this delicacy a spicy, tangy flavour after they have repeatedly eaten and excreted the cheese.

Click your way through SkyScanner and search for the best flight available to Algerho Sardinia Airport. In this season, there is a big chance that you get a great deal.

Travel to interesting Sardinia for a taste of what the archeologists deem enigmatic, taste their maggot cheese and live the italian royalty lifestyle. Interesting, isn't it?
