The Asinara 4×4 Guide Team
Veronica
Founder of Asinara4x4
Amelia Congiatta
Exclusive Guide of the Asinara National Park
Stefania Piras
Exclusive Guide of the Asinara National Park
Alice Fozzi
Exclusive Guide of the Asinara National Park
Degree in Environmental and Territory Management; Environmental Hiking Guide for the Sardinia Region; Marine Environmental Guide; Assistant Diving Instructor. The sea is her element, though she has adapted well to life on land and 4×4 vehicles. She always spots dolphins before anyone else, but one thing is certain: she manages to film every detail of her shoes and the boat, but never the bottlenose dolphins performing acrobatics right in front of her. A lover of animals, cats with sugar crises, and Agatha Christie novels, the only mystery we’ve yet to solve about her life is why she’s vegan…
Ilaria Soletta
Exclusive Guide of the Asinara National Park
Diploma in accounting (pristine), Environmental Guide for the Sardinia Region, Sailor/hostess for 10 years on sailing yachts, Unlimited sailing/motorboat license, Dog trainer. Known as “The Wolf Lady,” she finds it easier to keep a pack of Belgian Shepherds in line than to get her colleagues to agree at work. Her strong suit is managing embarkations and last-minute changes with remarkable composure—if only she remembered to carry a phone. We delved into her past, but a photo of her amidst a group of Puerto Ricans with a hammer in hand discouraged us from investigating further.
Federica Musa
Exclusive Guide of the Asinara National Park
Master’s Degree in Archaeology, Specialisation Diploma in Underwater and Coastal Landscape Archaeology, Environmental Hiking Guide (AIGAE), and Guide for the Historical, Environmental, and Geomineral Park of Sardinia. She is our super babysitter, somewhere between Mary Poppins and Otto Disc from The Simpsons, managing to keep wild groups of children in check with great patience—whether it’s through stories of archaeological digs or photos of her on a bulldozer. Her passion for #vanlife may have started right here on Jason at Asinara, earning her the nickname “mala a girare” (always on the move).
Fleet Vehicles
2 Van Caravelle 4 Motion with 9 seats, 5 Land Rover Defender 110 with 9 seats, and 1 BWA 7.50 RIB powered by a 250 HP engine. We’re not sure whether the names reflect the character of the vehicles or of Veronica—too many adjectives match.
Giasone ed Ercole
Volkswagen caravelle4x4
The idea of the Van4x4 was born during the height of the pandemic, when the ecological transition gained momentum and became the path to follow. These are Volkswagen Caravelle 4×4 vehicles, offering excellent off-road performance while being very comfortable, spacious, and equipped with panoramic windows. Jason and Hercules bring to mind epic and challenging journeys, much like those we are undertaking to uphold high-quality standards linked to sustainability. Similarly, our new journey begins with them, following the guidelines of the European Charter for Sustainable Tourism and the Environmental Quality Label of the Park.
Pilandra
Land Rover Defender
In Sardinian, it means “mischievous girl” or “naughty one.” The firstborn, it began its journey in Sulcis Iglesiente on unforgettable escapades.
Robamà
Land Rover Defender
The translation of its name is “naughty child” or “little rascal.” The mainlander of the group, it serves as our battering ram on the toughest routes.
Rimitana
Land Rover Defender
Its name means “asocial” or “hermit.” Despite being a mountain dweller and adopted by Lulese, it is the most refined and delicate of all.
Tirriosa
Land Rover Defender
Translated, it would be “stubborn” or “persistent.” It does not like being overtaken, and its determination drives it to surpass every limit.
Braghera (Nesos)
Land Rover Defender
It means “vain.” Its origin is Nesos (Greek for “island”), and it has been adopted by a family that keeps a close eye on it.
Recollosa
Gommone BWA 7,50 - 200CV
Its name describes a stubborn person. The family’s jewel—beautiful, powerful, elegant—Veronica has recently been unable to take her eyes off it.
