Why take this tour?
In the heart of the city, stop in Piazza del Duomo to admire Alghero's Cathedral and its octagonal Campanile (bell tower) that dominates the city's skyline. Dedicated to St. Mary, the Cathedral was originally built in typical Catalan Gothic in the 16th century. Step inside to see the Renaissance and Baroque styles of the Cathedral's interior and in summer, enjoy a short reprieve from the glaring heat.
Finish your tour by exploring Alghero’s towers: the 14th-century Torre Porta a Terra, one of the two main gates to Alghero, and the impressive Torre di San Giovanni dating to the 16th-century, used today for temporary exhibitions. Feel free to ask as many questions as you go - your guide is on-hand to make sure your experience of this picturesque town is the perfect one.
