Costa Smeralda & Porto Cervo Private Drive

Be chauffeured in a private luxury vehicle along the legendary Costa Smeralda — the playground of Aga Khan, Berlusconi, and the world's superyacht set — exploring glittering Porto Cervo, clifftop Baja Sardinia, and hidden coves.

What to expect

Your guide collects you dockside in an air-conditioned private vehicle and sweeps north along the Emerald Coast, pausing at the panoramic Capo Ferro lighthouse for photographs that frame the island's extraordinary azure-to-sapphire gradient. Porto Cervo's Piazzetta — the 'living room' of the Mediterranean mega-wealthy — invites a stroll past mega-yachts and Loro Piana boutiques. The route continues to the quieter bays of Capriccioli and Romazzino, where white sand beaches rival the Maldives, before a scenic coastal return to Golfo Aranci.
