BEAUTIFUL DALMATIA

After arriving at Dubrovnik airport, you'll be transferred to the hotel in one of our vehicles. The rest of the day is yours to relax and enjoy the city at your own pace.

Dubrovnik, known as the "Pearl of the Adriatic" for being one of the most beautiful cities in the Mediterranean, has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979. Dubrovnik means "Oak Grove," named for the abundance of oak trees in the area.

The city was ruled by Byzantines, Venetians, Hungarians, Turks, and Austrians. Dubrovnik was also one of the cities most affected by the war against Serbia; on December 6, 1991, more than 2,000 bombs fell on it, which is why most of its homes are newly constructed. The old town is surrounded by a large medieval wall with 16 towers, making it one of the city's main attractions.

Greca Tip: Inquire about our available excursions for the upcoming days, including the Game of Thrones filming locations tour.

After a peaceful and fabulous breakfast, you will have the day free to enjoy "The Pearl of the Adriatic."

Dubrovnik is a walled city dating back to the 7th century, full of contrasts and fusion that continues to enchant its visitors. Strolling within the walled area, we will reminisce about hundreds of years of history. Its walls and towers are considered the main attraction of the city, and from there we can capture breathtaking panoramic photos.

You shouldn't miss a visit to the Church of St. Blaise (1715), located in the heart of the city, the Stradun Street, the main artery of the city, where we will find bars and shops, and also the Franciscan Monastery and its church (14th century), home to the oldest pharmacy in the world.

To further explore the city's history, we recommend visiting the Sponza Palace, which dates back to the 16th century. We can also take a funicular ride to Mount Srđ to enjoy the views and have a good cup of coffee.

Greca Tip: Explore the city walls of Dubrovnik for breathtaking panoramic views of the Adriatic Sea and the old town.

After a tasty breakfast, you'll be transferred to the port of Dubrovnik to board a catamaran or ferry to Korcula.

Korcula is one of the greenest islands in the Adriatic, filled with olive groves and vineyards. The city resembles a typical Dalmatian medieval village with its red towers, colorful rooftops, and Gothic-Renaissance buildings.

Its most prominent monument is the Cathedral of St. Mark, which took 150 years to build and houses two paintings by Tintoretto. Next to the cathedral is the Church of St. Peter, featuring Gothic architecture and a Renaissance façade.

Other points of interest include the Abbey Palace, home to the city's treasury, and the Gabrielis Palace, now converted into museums. You'll be staying in Korcula by the end of the day.

Greca Tip: Legend has it that Marco Polo was born in Korcula, and it's worth visiting the house where he was born, protected by the city hall and soon to be turned into a museum.

After a delicious breakfast, you'll have the day free to continue exploring Korcula and its surroundings at your own pace.

One recommendation is to explore the surroundings, where just 6 kilometers away you'll find the village of Lumbarda, surrounded by vineyards, rural houses, and small sandy beaches. In Lumbarda, you can enjoy seafood in one of its numerous taverns accompanied by its typical white wine, Grk. Another option, if you're not a fan of seafood, is to try the country's typical cheeses and local wine.

If you prefer to enjoy the beach and diving, you can visit other fishing villages along the south coast such as Putnatska Luka, Brna, Prizba, and Potirna.

At the end of the day, you'll be staying in Korcula.

Greca Tip: Don't miss trying the delicious Dalmatian ham at any of the local taverns.

At the end of the day, accommodation in Korcula.

Greca Tip: Check out the best gastronomic options and don't miss the crni rizot (black risotto) and the brudet (fish stew).

After a tasty breakfast, transfer to the port where you will board a ferry or catamaran to the island of Hvar, the longest island in the Adriatic and incredibly beautiful, dotted with virgin forests, white sandy beaches, vineyards, and lavender fields.

Also known as a destination for newlyweds, it is the oldest tourist center on the Dalmatian coast. The charm of its city lies in the mix of architectural styles, Gothic, Renaissance, and the prominence given by the Venetian aristocracy.

Highlights include St. Stephen's Cathedral, the most impressive building in the city, the Franciscan monastery, which houses Ingoli's fresco "the Last Supper", the 16th-century Old Theater, the oldest public theater in Europe, and the Spanish Fortress, from which we will have the best panoramic view of Hvar.

In addition to strolling through the old town, you can enjoy its shops, cafes, and restaurants or simply go to one of its wonderful beaches.

Greca Tip: Remember to take a lavender souvenir in any of its forms, as the island is one of the major producers of this medicinal plant.

After a delicious breakfast, you'll have a free day to continue exploring this fascinating place and its surroundings at your own pace.

You can choose to wander through the old town and its narrow streets in search of unforgettable corners, explore its beautiful white sandy beaches, or take a trip to the Pakleni Islands if you're a fan of water sports, as they are the perfect setting for diving or fishing.

You will start your day with a delicious breakfast to recharge your energy and thus enjoy your free day in the beautiful city of Split, the capital of the Dalmatia region.

In recent years, the city has emerged as one of the country's premier tourist destinations, drawing visitors from far and wide to explore its rich history and stunning Adriatic coastline. As you stroll along its picturesque medieval streets, you'll encounter a plethora of historically, architecturally, and culturally significant landmarks, many of which are nestled within the walls of Diocletian's Palace.

Commissioned by Emperor Diocletian in the 4th century as a retreat for his twilight years, this architectural marvel fell into disuse in the 6th century before being repurposed by the locals, transforming it into the vibrant heart of the city. 

Today, the Roman edifices house a vibrant array of homes, boutiques, and eateries, offering visitors an immersive journey through time. Don't miss the chance to explore the revered "Golden Gate", which marks the grand entrance to this historic complex.

You can also walk and marvel at the constructions located around the central courtyard, called the Peristyle. Another important place to visit is the Cathedral of Saint Domnius, where you will find the Mausoleum of Diocletian. You can also explore the underground passages, which are of great historical importance.

Greca Tip: From the cathedral bell tower, you will have wonderful views of the entire city.

After a delicious breakfast at the hotel, and at the agreed time, you will take the transfer to Split airport.

After spending some fantastic days with Greca, we hope to see you again to enjoy some wonderful moments that will remain forever in your memory.

Bon voyage! Or, as we can say yourself, “Dobro putovanje!”
