About us
We are local, certified tour guides passionate about nature, culture and the hidden corners of our island. We organise guided tours in Sardinia and our mission is simple: to share an authentic Sardinian experience with curious travelers.
Discover more than just beaches.
If you’re looking for more than sandy shores, you’re in the right place. Our guided tours in Sardinia lead you through peaceful mountain trails, ancient shepherd paths, and the quiet riversides of the Flumendosa.Â
In fact, each journey is designed to connect you deeply with the land and its traditions. We don’t just guide, we invite you to experience the real Sardinia.
Sustainable travel, at your pace.
Our itineraries are carefully crafted with a strong focus on sustainability and slow tourism. This means we respect nature’s rhythms, support local communities, and offer experiences that feel personal and immersive.Â
Moreover, we believe travel should enrich both visitors and the places they explore. For this reason, our tours are small–scale and thoughtful.
Why choose our guided tours in Sardinia?
We offer flexible options tailored to different interests and levels of adventure. Whether you love walking, culture, nature or quiet exploration, we have something just for you.
Our goal is to help you discover the true essence of Sardinia , its beauty, its stories, and its soul.
Francesco Manca
Hi, I am Francesco,
a Tourist and Environmental Hiking Guide, founder of Your Sardinia Experience, a company founded in 2014.
Working in tourism has always been my dream since I was little. It matured thanks to the passion of my parents. They allowed me to travel far and wide among the most beautiful destinations in Europe, by car and camping.
[In life and in the world of work we must never lose humility and ambition, whatever the role held within a project].
Born in 1984, after studying at the University of Cagliari, I earned a degree as a Cultural Operator for Tourism. Then I immediately began working in the sector as a hotel receptionist. I also embarked on a series of training courses in tourism and entrepreneurship. I gained various experiences abroad, including a study trip to Andalusia and a period at the ECS Tourism School in Scotland.
I collaborated with companies operating in Yosemite Park and took part in a master’s program on the tourism system in San Francisco, California.I also spent a short time alongside guides on the Inca Trail in Peru.
Here I am today, leading the company with which I currently share most of my life. I organise guided tours in Sardinia. Two of the projects carried out in recent years are private tours for couples in the city of Cagliari. These tours are made with a vintage 1972 Fiat 500L.
Another successful experience is the Wine Experience, a visit to the vineyards and wine cellars of Sardinia. It is currently one of the best-sellers on TripAdvisor.
For about eight years I have been promoting a project with my family, “The Family Experience”. It is a day to spend in the small village where I was born together with local artisans and elderly people. We re-enact old crafts and participate in cooking classes, workshops and interviews related to the theme of food and longevity.

Francesca Montisci
Hi, I am Franzisca,
Tourist Guide of the Sardinia Region (GT RAS 2481) and AIGAE Environmental Hiking Guide. Born in the Aosta Valley mountains, but deeply tied to my roots, I consider myself a traveler, a polyglot who loves the world.
Since I was a child I have studied languages in Sardinia, the Aosta Valley and France, finishing my training with a specialization in tourism and marketing in Lyon.
Over the years I have worked and lived in Spain, Switzerland, France, New Zealand and Russia. All this, always with the aim of improving the linguistic aspect and increasing the professional aspect. Then, I decided to go back to basics.
Traveling I discovered how much I adore Sardinia, its uniqueness, its history and its authentic character, but above all I discovered the needs of people like me when exploring a new land.
Recently, I have focused on creating authentic experiences that can offer you the best during your stay on the island. One of these is the Beekeeper for a day experience. The collaboration with the family business Apidoria is essential to make your day unique.
I follow weekly tours, trekking, kayaking and day-tours of Your Sardinia Experience, driving both means of transport.
I am very ready to accompany you on your next adventures in Sardinia!
Vittoria Murgia
Hi, I am Vittoria,
a retired former teacher who has chosen a new working life, just to always be at work. I was born in Orgosolo in 1953. I toured Europe by car and camping. I love Greece, Spain, France and all of old Czechoslovakia. In my years as a teacher, I have accompanied students far and wide across European capitals.
I currently take care of bread, fresh pasta and dessert workshops in family experiences and during food and wine festivals in Barbagia.
I love recovering old recipes and creating new ones by revisiting traditional dishes. One of my favorites remains the preparation and cooking of potato and chestnut ravioli, but I never forget to propose Su Pane Frattau typical of the Orgolese tradition.
I'm waiting for you to follow you in the cooking workshops and to spend some nice days together.

Albino Manca
Hi, I am Albino,
I am a retired former municipal employee. In my youth I've lived an agro-pastoral life with my father Nanni.
Then I became a traffic policeman and then I've entered in the office. I am a handyman in the family, available to these young people who want to carry on tradition and new jobs in a complicated area like the Sardinian mountains.
During meetings with guests from all over the world, I like to talk about when I followed my father and my uncles with the livestock during the transhumances towards Campidano, km after km on foot for whole days.
Aunt Bea, Franci Figus, Aunt Betty and Mirko
Family experiences and other activities in Barbagia are also possible thanks to the incredible help from many friends, neighbors, villagers and acquaintances and colleagues from nearby towns.
Above all we name this team of incredible people, without them it would not have been possible to do anything.
The legendary Aunt Bea, Vittoria's tireless and very nice friend, who loves making delicious sweets and long walks.
Aunt Betty always present in all the good and bad, relaxing and challenging moments.
Franci Figus, multi-graduate in languages with experience abroad, guide and operator of the village museum.
And finally Mirko, always ready for any battle, with kindness and passion is the calmest and most serene of all of us.
