The Nuraghe La Prisgiona is an impressive archaeological site in Arzachena, featuring a ruined village that dates back to the 14th century BC. The site includes approximately 100 huts and a central stone keep, as well as a perfectly preserved central tower. Additionally, visitors can explore the still-functioning ancient well and enter the dome made of stones. This impressive megalithic site is highly recommended for anyone interested in history and archaeology.
A well-preserved nuragic complex dating back to the 13th-8th century BC, consisting of a central tower and the remains of what would have been various meeting huts.
The ticket for an individual archeological site is €4, or €7 for two, €10 for three etc. There are 7 sites/monuments in total in the area (+ one civic museum) and for entry into all 8 would cost €23. You have to specify which monuments you want to want to visit when you buy your tickets.
The Nuraghe La Prisgiona is the largest archaeological site to visit, and about a kilometre down the road from the Giants’ Tomb monument.
There is separate parking for La Prisgiona, and the walk around the monument took about 15 minutes.

Interesting sight with a lot of history. Warning though,do not take the 1 km road through the forest to the Giants Tomb or if you do, make sure you have proper shoes and water. Way easier to walk on the main road or take the car, especially if you have a packed day ahead and you need to save time and energy.

If you are vacationing on the Emerald Cosst this is an absolute must see. You can park the car next to it so it is very convenient. It is very well restored and preserved.

Very impressive antique village. So well preserved and so many different buildings are located there. It is interesting, in my country, Bulgaria, we have one similar landmark, it is smaller that any one building in the Nuraghe La Prisgiiona. I know, there are very few places like this all over the world and i am happy i had seen two of them.

One has to understand that 3500years of weathering alone does not help any human structure and this one is very well preserved. It is worth visiting together with a mass burial place and it would be enough to give you impressions about the life of the bronze age human.

beautiful place, so much to see: a big tower, very well conserved, and several small cottages. you‘ll get a short information sheet you can even take with you to walk around (we received it in German and Italian).
ticket costs 3.50€
there is a very nice walk to the site from the gravesite, just follow the singe on the left side of the street. it leads you through the fields and trees, about 15 min.
The Giants' grave of Coddu Vecchiu is a remarkable megalithic site in Arzachena that has been well-preserved. It features a Bronze Age burial ground with large stones flanking a tall central stele, making it one of the best-preserved Giant Tombs on the island. The tomb can be easily found with signs leading to it and admission costs 4 for an adult.
A very interesting visit to this megalithic tomb, which was likely once connected to the Prisgiona nuraghic complex a few meters away, with excavated materials dating to the Bronze Age and the Copper Age.
We visited at 6:30pm (the ticket office and site shuts at 7:30pm) and we were the only people there making it very relaxing. Ticket prices to see one monument are €4, or you can book to see more monuments (i.e. 3 monuments for €10) but you have to state at the time of booking which monuments you specifically want to see, as they are then listed on your ticket.
It was a nice and short walk to the Giant’s Tomb - approximately 5 mins, and then probably 5 minutes of time walking along the tomb.

A small place - but worth to visit - in particular as part of the multi-ticket deal for the archeological sites in Arzachena
Eric Berberich — Google review
It is one of the best preserved Giant Tombs at the island. It can be easily found since there are signs everywhere. The ticket cost 4€ for an adult if you want to visit just the tomb, but I recommend you go visit also the nuraghe La prisgiona- 10 minutes walk from the tomb, ticket for both goes for 7€/adult

It worth to see. Noce historic area from Neolitic age. Also very close to another archeologic site, Nuraghe.
From Arzachena is just about 15 minutes.
They provide free guide service on spot.
Enjoy

Why do people complain, it's nonsense.. If you couldn't do wine tasting because you didn't book it -> it's your fault, isn't it? If they were 'slow' to serve you -> why are you in a hurry while on holidays AND in such beautiful environment? If they seem 'arrogant' -> would you blame them for being proud after building such a quality business in 20 years from scratch?
I actually only encountered kindness, professionalism, high standards. The architecture of the winery is absolutely incredible, the tour was well explained and our guide was happy to answer dozens of questions from me (I am curious, yes). The wines were, in order: very good, amazing, delightful.
These people deserve 5 stars. If you rate them less it's because you are inexperienced with the world of wine.
Small suggestion to the winery, during tasting: if you leave half-empy bottles on display, after serving the guests their tasting doses, do come back to them asking them which wine they liked best and if they'd appreciate a small top-up.
I say this for two reasons - you won't serve new guests with opened bottles (I assume) and it will definitely increase the chances of someone leaving with 1 (or more) bottles.

We arrived without booking a tour, it had just finished and were told that we could look around. No other info was given. My guests saw the wine tasting sign (€27) and asked info. Thank goodness I decided not to partake and requested water. Firstly very little info was given on the choices of wines (3) and once they arrived little or no explanation was given. I asked the grades and where the vineyard was and how old the winery is.
The waiter lacked enthusiasm and knowledge. In fact we left without purchasing anything.
I definitely will not take any future friends or clients here.

Call for a Reservation, through the website and Google Maps you cannot make a reservation. The staff was kind enough to allow us to sit and taste their delicious wines without a reservation. Great selection of Sardinia Whites and Reds. The winery itself is an art piece and the surrounding hills are a beautiful backdrop to your tasting experience.

Fabulous experience at Surrau winery and a very beautiful location and visitors centre.
Worth calling ahead to find out when their tour slots are as there are only a few each day, and either English or Italian, so there will be specific tours done in English. We rocked up without booking, so weren’t able to do the full tour, but had a very pleasant and relaxing time in their tasting room (which is a bit like a very relaxing and stylish conservatory) with a glass of wine each and a platter of local meats and cheeses (€20) - which was all thoroughly excellent (and came to €37 for the two of us).

Great place, nice wines and food, service was good despite there was only us. None explanation at all about the wines, and was very bad treated by the director of the company, that just arrived screaming in Italian, while I don’t speak in Italian, and than just said in a very rude way that my sun that is 4 was “destroying everything here”. I was supervising him, while he was taking all the puffs to one place to seat and play. Never bring a kid to there, they should let everybody knows that Kids are unfriendly at there.

This was a very nice winery tour and tasting. The tour takes you through many parts of the winery allowing you to see their processes of wine making. The architecture of the building is very clean and open. The guide was knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. The tasting and paring was good. Unfortunately, many of the wines were not available to taste so we were limited to just a few wines for the three glass tasting with Sardinian appetizers. Overall a positive experience that I would recommend.

Gorgeous setting. Excellent wine. The Italians know how to make a white wine! (We’re red people normally!) We didn’t book ahead, which we should have done. Definitely book ahead if you want to do the tour and tasting. We were still served by a friendly, helpful lady. Background on the wines was provided and the nibbles were a nice touch. Only 4 stars as we didn’t get a tour (our fault but still).

Very nice place to rest and try some typical sardonic (white)wines. It’s suggested to make a reservation..
Stuff speaks very well English and is very friendly. Wine tasting was about 5€ per person (3 wine) and also very nice. I would like to come back again for a wine tour around.

Parking close to road then walk 5 minutes down to beach. Car park not free in season. €3.45 for 2 hours. Beach to avoid in high season 😂. Unless you arrive on the beach at 7 am, it is really packed as clients from nearby hotels flock there.
Side coves are rocky so not suitable for young children. Water clear enough but sadly some rubbish in it. You can rent transats etc... KEEP THE BEACH CLEAN! TAKE YOUR RUBBISH WITH YOU!
