Stop At: Nuoro, Nuoro, Province of Nuoro, Sardinia

CORTES APERTAS is a popular event in central Sardinia, where in every weekend of Autumn a different village organizes a festival during which we will be able to enter the house of the inhabitants for a delicious tasting of typically sweet and savory products. We will travel by minivan for about 2 hours, depending on the village in which the festival is taking place. As soon as we arrive, we will start with a walking tour along the main streets where artisans and local producers have set their stalls. During the festival, some villages offer a folkloristic procession of traditional dresses and music. In these small Sardinian Villages, credit cards may be not accepted, for this reason, we recommend bringing some cash with you.
