Sea Kayak in Sardinia

Great bunch of people, fantastic kayaking & scenery, excellent guides !

Wonderful trip in Sardinia with Clark and Manuel. Very enjoyable kayak trips along beautiful beaches and cliffs, not too crowded considering the time of year. I really appreciated Manuel's attitude, really cool and easy going but still professional and responsible. And the agriturismo was comfortable and relaxing with delicious local food!

This was far more than a kayaking trip. It was a way to see and experience the beautiful waters and beaches of North East Sardinia but it was also a journey of local food and produce. We were a group of six who thoroughly enjoyed hanging out for 4 days and had incredible laughs and conversations. We also had moments of calm and reflection during some of the really extraordinary beauty of the trip. We were lucky enough to experience different conditions which made the kayaking fun - And learn some tricks in them too. The food throughout the trip was exceptional home produce from the Agriturismo and it was an absolute highlight. All the kit we needed was provided and it was decent kit which really helped have a good time. Do invest in a waterproof pouch for your phone though. 100% brilliant.

The perfect blend of adventure, culture and rest! Thank you team MBA for putting on this great experience for us. Monica and Fabienne (the hosts at the Agriturismo) were wonderful and made us all feel so welcome, whilst the kayak guides/instructors were knowledgeable and developed confidence in the first time paddlers. It was an all-round perfect holiday!

Better than we could have hoped for. Location was perfect, our guide Manuel was funny and made sure we were all comfortable at all times. The kayaking was easier than we thought it would be. Manuel showed us some beautiful parts of the coast. The colour of the water was amazing and the beaches were fabulous. They also organised our accommodation which was perfect. Fantastic time. Would definitely do again, except we would stay longer in Sardinia. It was beautiful.

The group was great and so was our agriturismo. There are definitely some improvements that can be made however, especially ensuring that the description matches what is given. For example, it says in the description that we would get dessert with dinner, but none was provided. After the first day Clark said that it should be. When we then asked the agriturismo staff, they said it wasn't. When we went back to Clark about this he was quite rude saying 'it depends how you interpret the information - it says typically includes - not DOES include', even though he had also said the days before it should have been included. It was more the way he said it too, implying that we were being unreasonable. Also it states that the room have air conditioning, and they don't. They just had a fan. As were were quite isolated and there are no shops nearby, having a kettle in the room would be much appreciated, allowing us to make our own hot drinks on return from canoeing as otherwise it was not possible to get one and staff at the agriturismo are often out working on the farm. Also it was not advertised that we could order hot drinks anyway. Having a guide that stayed with us throughout the trip would have been nicer, it would have allowed questions to be answered, and problems sorted straight away. Clark was only there for van driving and Manuel when we were on the water. On the first evening when they arrived at dinner Clark didn't even introduce himself. It was only when Manuel asked us our names after that introductions began and we assumed Clark was the other person. Manuel was great with the group. The only worry I had was on day 1 when there was thunder and lightening, he didn't seem to know that it was unsafe to kayak in lightening - Clark had to tell him.

Such an incredible trip. The setting was stunning, the people were amazing and the trip was so well organised. Having never been to Sardinia or done a solo trip like this before, I was expecting a lot but this trip far exceeded my expectations. The Aguritismo was lovely. Amazing home-made (and in many cases home-grown) food and wine. Knowledgeable guides and beautiful beaches.

This holiday was so incredible, and I feel so lucky to have had these experiences with such a brilliant group of people.

Sardinia is a beautiful country with so much geography and history to enjoy. The food is absolutely delicious, especially if you like seafood (and gelato!). It's so easy to get around so the logistics of traveling were really easy.

The kayaking tour was so much fun and so well run. Clarke and Manuel are both very professional but so much fun! We spent the kayaking days with Manuel and we all felt very safe, even though most of us were new to kayaking. He took us on a different route every day, we experienced different water conditions and saw the beauty of the coastline as only a kayak allows you to see. We got snorkelling opportunities every lunchtime, and he was very knowledgeable of the wildlife in the ocean. Some of my favorite moments were when we were kayaking along in mirror like conditions, and just chatting between the boats about what we were seeing and other holidays we've had. We got to meet up with Clarke on the last day and share some memories over a glass of wine. It sounds like he's planning some similar tours in other countries, so I will be keeping an ear out for any updates!

I've done a couple of MBA tours now and always say that I got lucky to have such a great group of people......but maybe this is just the type of people that MBA attracts?! We had such a laugh out on the water all day; we helped each other out, we shared great conversations and got to know each other so well. I felt so relaxed with every one of them, and I hope we'll be able to meet up again some time.

I was a bit nervous about the fitness required for this type of holiday, but we all managed it very well. I think we were quite a balanced group, which probably made it easier to pace the week and make sure we were all happy with the distances we were covering. I go to the gym a few times a week and did a bit of core and upper body work to prepare for the trip. None of us were particularly sore after kayaking, and Manuel checked in with us regularly to see how our energy levels were. To enjoy it fully, I think you definitely need a reasonable level of fitness, but you definitely don't need to be running triathlons or have any kayaking experience.

I absolutely loved this trip and would happily do the whole thing all over again. Thank you Manuel, Clarke and all the team at the agriturismo for looking after us so well x

Had such a good time on this trip, sights and water is stunning. Argoturismo is amazing too.

Sardinia was beautiful, kayaking was relaxed, extremely well run, everyone taken care of, nobody left behind and Manwell and Clark our kayak guide and operator were fantastic, interesting and genuinely lovely people. Couldn’t have had a better time with them. The group age ranged from twenties through to fifties and everyone got on exceptionally well, lovely and interesting people all looking to have a fun holiday. The argirturismo accommodation was clean and comfortable, incredibly lovely family run and welcoming place to stay. Food was delicious, a fantastic experience all round. Thank you MBA x

Everything about this trip was great. It was a lovely few days out on the water seeing the fantastic coastline of Sardinia. Clarke, our guide was lovely, very patient and safety focused. Caters to all levels of kayaking and was not too strenuous.

Great group and great accommodation.
