…but make it vegan
Italian summer
Sardinia is where Italians go on vacation. And we’re doing it with Federica, our Sardinian local. We’re exploring all of the local vegan eats you can’t find on a map, staying at a local vegan family’s guesthouse and doing a home-cooked pizza night and doing a boat day on the beaches of Cagliari.
We built this trip with our trip leader who was born and raised on the island. So you're not getting the tourist version of Sardinia. You're getting the real Sardinia: the winery she loves, the vegan cheese makers down the street, the local shops that do vegan options just for us.
And like every Vegan AF trip, the food and activities bring you here, but it’s the people on the trip you’ll be friends with for life. Coming solo and leaving with a group chat that never goes quiet? That's our favorite trip souvenir. ;)

island days
A guided tour of Neptune's Cave, a day on the boat with vegan eats, and beach time in Cagliari. This is the Italian summer you've been picturing, but make it vegan.
🍷
Wine, Cheese, & Pizza
A vegan winery tour, tasting, and lunch. A tour and tasting at a vegan cheese factory. Pizza night at a vegan guesthouse.

What you’ll actually do
This is a sample itinerary based on past trips. Exact timing may vary slightly due to vendor schedules, weather, or other circumstances — but the experiences below represent what a typical Vegan AF Italy trip looks like.
what it costs
and what you’ll get
double occupancy
$3,350 / person
Shared room with one other traveler (same gender)
single room upgrade
$4,200 / person
Your own private room
Book for only a $500 deposit and pay the rest in monthly installments with 0% interest or upcharge.
-
Double occupancy means you’ll share a room with one other traveler of the same gender. Your beds are separate. Think two twin beds or two double beds. This is the most common choice on our trips, and most travelers who book this way love it. That being said, some people prefer having their own space so we offer a single room upgrade on every trip. :)
-
We’d be happy to put you together! At checkout, it will ask if you’re traveling with a friend or partner to please put their name so we can place you together!
-
Prefer your own space? Add the single supplement ($850) and you’ll have a private room — same hotel, same itinerary, just your own place to decompress. Both options are available on every departure.
-
Your $500 deposit holds your spot. After that, WeTravel automatically generates a 0% interest payment plan that divides the remaining balance into equal installments completing 30 days before your departure. You’ll see your exact payment schedule before you confirm your booking. If you prefer a different payment plan, please reach out to us at hello@veganaftravel.com and we’d be happy to swap it for you.

Coming solo? Most of us are.
The majority of people who book Vegan AF trips come alone. And leave with friends for life. We’ve seen travelers do vegan meetups in their cities, start book clubs together, stay in touch for years & years after the trip. We’ve even had two travelers fall in love and get engaged after a trip.
That’s the magic that happens when you come on a trip with likeminded people.
… and we’re leaving with friends for life.

Questions we get all the time
-
We understand an additional cost can be frustrating. But our top priority is your safety. If an illness, emergency, fall, or disaster happens, we need to make sure we can act as quickly as possible for your health and safety. You can purchase it as an add on at checkout for convenience or get it from a third party site and upload it later. We recommend InsureMyTrip or Squaremouth for easy comparison.
-
Nope! We actually get quite a few non vegans on the trip. Whether you don’t eat certain types of meat for religious reasons, are pescetarian, vegetarian, or just are down for the ride, you’re welcome here! The food served on the trip is vegan though so you do need to be comfortable eating vegan for a week.
-
We cap every departure at 12 travelers. Small enough that everyone gets to know each other, big enough to have that real group energy.
-
No. You book your own flights into Sardinia and out of Cagliari (CAG), or we can advise on the best routing. Ideally, fly into Alghero (AHO), since that's where we start. If Olbia (OLB) works better for you, we'll pick you up there too, but you'll need to land by 3 pm at the absolute latest, since it's a longer drive to Alghero. Either way, our first activity is a 7 pm welcome dinner on day 1, so plan your arrival accordingly. On the last day, we'll transfer to CAG together. We'll email you the exact arrival and departure windows after you book.
-
We work with locally owned boutique hotels. For two nights in Sorradile, we'll stay at a vegan guesthouse in the hills, where bathrooms are shared. If you're not comfortable with that, please reach out before booking at hello@veganaftravel.com.
-
All our trips are 100% vegan, but we know that’s not the only consideration. If you have any allergies, please reach out to us at hello@veganaftravel.com with the trip you’re interested in booking and your allergy and we will see what we can do!
Note: we unfortunately cannot accommodate gluten allergy on the Italy trip at this time.
-
If you'd like to extend your trip before or after, we'd be happy to give you recommendations. We can also help you book a night early at the first hotel in Alghero. Airport transfer isn't included before day 1 of the itinerary.
-
Up to 90 days before your trip, you may transfer any payments made to another trip within one calendar year at no additional cost. Within 90 days of departure, we are unable to offer cancellations or changes, as payments to our vendors have already been finalized. We strongly recommend purchasing “Cancel for Any Reason” travel insurance for added flexibility and peace of mind.
-
Yes, absolutely. We have a zero-tolerance policy for discrimination of any kind, which is outlined in the terms and conditions you agree to at checkout. Creating a safe, inclusive environment for all travelers is a top priority. We reserve the right to remove anyone from a trip who violates this policy.
-
We pride ourselves on having a wide range of ages on our trips. Some of our best experiences come from bringing together people from all walks of life. While the average age typically falls between 25–40, we’ve welcomed travelers from 18 to 70+, and that diversity is something we truly value.
If you have any physical considerations or would like more details about activity levels, feel free to reach out to us at hello@veganaftravel.com. We’re happy to help you find the right fit.
-
All travelers must be 18+. Beyond that, everyone is welcome. If you have any physical considerations or would like more details about activity levels (there's swimming on boat day and some walking each day), reach out to us at hello@veganaftravel.com. We're happy to help you find the right fit.
what happens when you book?
What’s the weather like in Sardinia?
June is one of the best times to visit Sardinia. Expect long, sunny days, warm temperatures (typically in the low to mid 80s °F / high 20s °C), and sea water that's warm enough for swimming without the peak crowds of July and August. Evenings are pleasant for dinners outdoors, and the hills around Sorradile run a little cooler than the coast. Pack your swimsuit, sunscreen, and a light layer for the evenings.
Who this trip is for
✔️ Someone who wants the Italian beach summer without the vegan logistics.
Crystal-clear water, a day on the boat, gelato by the sea. And never having to ask whether the focaccia has lard in it or settle for a sad side salad.
✔️ Someone who plans their trip around the food.
Vegan wine, vegan cheese, pizza night, focaccia, and gelato. Sardinia has some of the most distinctive food in Italy, and this trip is built around eating it.
✔️ Someone who wants sun, sea, and a little adventure.
Caves, coastline, swimming stops, and three very different corners of the island in one week. This trip moves more than our Italy trip, with something new every couple of days.
✔️ A solo traveler ready for connection.
Most people who book come alone and leave with friends for life. The group is small (max 12), which is the perfect size for real connections.
Who this trip isn’t for
❌ Travelers looking for big-city sightseeing.
This is an island trip. Think beaches, small towns, and the countryside, rather than museums and famous monuments. If you want history and cities, check out our Rome and Tuscany trip.
This Might Not Be Your Trip — But One of These Might Be
Craving more adventure?
Visit Guatemala
Volcano hikes, Mayan textiles, and Lake Atitlán. Italy’s slower pace is wonderful, but if you’re looking for a faster pace and more adventure, Guatemala is your vibe.
Want some beach time and boat days?
Visit Greece
Ancient ruins, dancing ‘til sunrise, and incredible vegan food. Similar European ease but on the Greek islands.
something deeper culturally and historically?
Visit Jordan
One of the oldest civilizations on earth, extraordinary hospitality, and a trip that’ll change how you see the world. More adventurous, more meaningful, and unforgettable.
meet your trip leader
Born and raised in Sardinia, Federica started traveling in her twenties across Europe and north Africa, and met people from all over the world, which made her fall in love with traveling.
A few years later she went back to her home region and started working in tourism and event management such as the World Rally Championship. 2006 is when she became vegetarian after driving right behind a truck which was carrying a number of lambs to the slaughterhouse during Easter time.
It took some years to turn vegan and start studying nutrition as well as vegan pastry so that she could share her products with everyone. Her son Gioele has also been vegan since birth and enjoys traveling with her mum and ranking food from different countries while embracing different cultures.
