August 17th / Arrival in Split

TBD A personal English-speaking driver will be waiting for you at the arrivals of the airport

for a private car & driver transfer to your hotel. He will be holding a sign with your

name on it.

Split is one of the most visited destination in Croatia. The first inhabitant of Split was the Roman

emperor Diocletian who started to build his palace in this friendly bay around 293 AD. After his

abdication he withdrew to this luxurious palace of about 30 thousand square meters. The following

turbulent centuries made the palace into a town first populated by the citizens of the nearby Salona,

fleeing before the Avars and Slavs.

In the past Split was under Hungarian and Venetian administration, French rulers and Austro-

Hungarian monarchy. This mixture of historic layers brought some clumsiness and some things done

too fast but today all that makes a part of its originality. The ruins of Diocletian's Palace, built between

the late 3rd and the early 4th Centuries AD, can be found throughout the city. The cathedral was built

in the Middle Ages by reusing materials from the ancient mausoleum.

* Travel time: approx. 30min

Arrival at the hotel in Split

August 18th / Split with Olive Oil tasting

Cathedral, Vestibul, Peristil and many more. Just relax and enjoy a walk-through history with your

guide.

As a break you will do some olive oil tasting with snacks in an Olive oil bar.

The extra virgin olive oil here is known as the island’s green gold, and it's famed for its subtle flavor

and distinct piquant taste. Ancient Greeks sailed to the island of Hvar some 2400 years ago and planted

vines and olive trees, that is when the cultivation of olive trees and grapes spread across Dalmatia an

influenced greatly the local cuisine.

* Included: private guide, olive oil tasting with snacks, tickets to Basement halls and Cathedral

* Not included: lunch, additional drinks, gratuities and items purchased for personal use

Boarding on private boat, route Zlarin island

02:00PM You will meet your personal English speaking driver at the Lobby of your hotel for

your transfer to the harbor. There you will meet with your private skipper for your

adventure vacation on board of a private boat.

Your first stop will be to Zlarin Island.

Zlarin is an island in the Sibenik archipelago. Due to its beauty it is called the golden, green and coral

island. It is therefore no wonder that the island was inhabited in the distant past. The church of Gospa

od Raselja, Velika Gospa and the Chapel of sv. Roko i Simun are historical monuments on the island

from 17th century. The idyllic unspoiled natural surroundings, thick pine forests, a variety of beaches

and many hidden small and larger bays will thrill all visitors and tourists. Sailors here gladly return

because of the good moorings and naturally protected harbor. On the island a coral factory is still

working today where handmade coral jewelry is made and sold. Coral diving is the most recognizable

cultural heritage and a centuries-old distinctiveness of the island of Zlarin. Since the 14th century, our

ancestors dove for and harvested corals. And now, just as they did then, corals amaze generations

after generations with their color, and have become synonymous with Zlarin.

* Tour not included, if desired private guide can be arranged, please advise us!

August 19th / National Park Krka and Sibenik

Today you will visit National Park Krka and Sibenik. This day will begin with a short speedboat ride that

leads to the famous Skradinski buk, the largest waterfall of NP Krka. During the guided tour, you can

walk among the many waterfalls and see the stone houses and mills that now form the ethno museum.

To complete this story, the guide will take you to hidden and lesser-known waterfalls that are ideal for

swimming and relaxation.

Krka is a National Park in Croatia. It's known for a series of 7 waterfalls. The largest part of this amazing

river’s course is the national park, which abounds with cultural and historical monuments. The most

outstanding of these is the Franciscan monastery on the tiny island of Visovac, set in the middle of the

lake widening in the river like a precious stone. The area is full of old mills, which have been

transformed into small ethnographic museums where one can see how wheat was ground in the olden

days, are a popular attraction for visitors. The tiny river island of Visovac is steeped in history and it is

the site of both a Church and a Franciscan monastery. The one feature of Krka National Park that makes

it different is the fact that swimming is allowed in certain designated areas.

* Included: private guide, round transfers and tickets

* Not Included: food, drinks and items purchased for personal use

* Please note: swimming in the river is possible, but not recommended

After sightseeing of Krka you will continue to Sibenik and discover this city of marvelous cultural and

historical heritage, rich spiritual culture and traditional identity.

Stroll through the city center, boasting with various monuments of historical and cultural significance.

Sibenik was first mentioned on December 25th, 1066 in the grant of King Petar Kresimir IV, which is

why it is also called Kresimir town and is considered to be one of the oldest towns in the country. You

will have the chance to get an insight into the everyday life of Sibenik while exploring its highlights.

Discover just what makes this city on the coast of the Adriatic Sea so special.

The Cathedral of St. James is considered the most important architectural monument of the

Renaissance era in the entire country. Constructed over a period of a century and considered a unique

architectural accomplishment, as it was built entirely of stone, with no other binding materials used.

Its trefoil front façade is what makes it different from other Renaissance churches, as well as the

harmony of its architecture. The Barone Fortress was built in 1646 on Vidakusa, an 80 meters high hill

above the city of Sibenik and along with other three fortresses in the area, it represents a unique

defense system which resisted the enemies of the city for centuries.

* Included: private guide, tickets

* Not included: food, gratuities and items purchased for personal use

August 20th / National Park Kornati

This morning you will depart to Kornati Islands, one of the most beautiful islands of the Mediterranean

coast.

The Kornati Islands are the densest archipelago in the Mediterranean. Nowhere else in this large sea

is such a great number of islands crammed in so little space. Because of ambiguous criteria of the

definition of an island in general, there is no general agreement about their number. Kornati Islands

are a paradise for those who know how to enjoy the natural beauty and crystal clear water. The Kornati

archipelago consists of 140 uninhabited islands, islets and reefs. They are famous for the peculiar

shapes of reefs and crags but particularly for their high cliffs. There are those who claim that the

number of the smaller islands is even greater, since an old saying says: “As is the number of days in a

year, so is the number of the Kornati islands”. The main island Kornat is accounted for the largest part

of the park and the whole island group is named after it.

* Included: tickets

* Not included: guide, food, gratuities and items purchased for personal use

August 21st / Zadar Explore Zadar, town with most beautiful sunset in the world.

Zadar is an ancient Mediterranean port city. The old town, surrounded by walls and towers on a

peninsula, with a new, urban part is connected by a bridge, a symbol of the city. Built on Roman urban

principles, where there are several major longitudinal streets traversed by a greater number of

latitudinal streets, give the city a rectangular shape. The old town is a treasure trove of archaeological

treasures and monuments to the ancient, medieval and Renaissance periods.

Sea Organ, designed by local architect Nikola Bašić, is unique. Set within the perforated stone stairs

that descend into the sea is a system of pipes and whistles that exudes wistful sighs when the

movement of the sea pushes air through it. The effect is hypnotic, the mellifluous tones increasing in

volume when a boat or ferry passes by. You can swim from the steps off the promenade while listening

to the sounds.

The Greeting to the Sun consists of three hundred multi-layered glass plates placed on the same level

with the stone-paved waterfront in the shape of a 22-meter diameter circle. Under the glass

conduction plates there are photo-voltage solar modules through which symbolic communication with

nature is made, with the aim to communicate with light, just like the Sea Organs do with sound.

* Tour not included, if desired private guide can be arranged, please advise us!

August 22nd / Cheese tasting on Pag island

Today you will get a chance to explore Pag, the island with the longest coastline in Croatia. Explore the

narrow streets of town Pag and learn more about its interesting traditions of this Island and taste the

world-famous cheese.

Pag is the fifth-largest island of the Croatian sea. The establishment of the new town of Pag, where it

stands today, happened in the year of 1443. The construction of the modern city was done according

to the architectural and urban plan of Juraj Dalmatinac, a famous renaissance architect.

Gligora Cheese from the island of Pag is a blend of tradition, knowledge and cutting-edge technology.

Proclaimed as the best sheep's cheese in the world, it is a limited product obtained exclusively from

sheep's milk from this island. Its limitation is related to the number of sheep that can freely walk

around the rocky pasture areas and graze on Mediterranean herbs covered in salt. You will be

welcomed to the Gligora family boutique and listen about the story of the best sheep’s cheese.

* Included: round transfers, cheese tasting and tickets

* Not included: food, drinks, gratuities and items purchased for personal use

August 23rd / Bike rental on Losinj

Today you will visit Mali and Veli Losinj and enjoy an authentic experience of this area while biking

around

The island of Losinj is one of Croatia’s most magical hidden gems and the perfect escape for every

season. Where the stars look beautiful like nowhere else, where you breathe with your full lungs,

where waves of Istria, Kvarner and Dalmatia intertwine, and where the last North Adriatic school of

dolphin’s swim happily – that’s where the Losinj Archipelago is located.

There are two protected park-forests on Losinj Pod Javoriin Veli Losinj and Cikat in Mali Losinj, which

maintain their appeal thanks to the systemic forestation in the 19th century. Their effect on the local

climate is manifold – they emit large amounts of oxygen, prevent soil erosion, add fragrance to the

aerosol, protect the footpaths by the sea from excessive solar radiation and winds, and retain a layer

of water below the soil surface. An aesthetically pleasing stroll along the sea is further complemented

by the dense dark green pine-trees that crown the promenade in contrast with the blue sea. Also,

thanks to its rich maritime tradition and famous local captains who were highly respected around the

world and who brought exotic plants from their voyages.

* Included: bike rental (road, e-bike or children bike)

* Not included: transfers, food, drinks, private guide and tickets

August 24th / Discover National Park Brijuni

Today you will enjoy in one of the most beautiful National Parks in Croatia – Brijuni islands. Upon arrival

there, you will meet with an English-speaking guide who will reveal interesting secrets of these famous

islands (group tour, not private).

After a short transfer to Fazana, you will continue to Brijuni via small boat (public transfer). There you

will enjoy in a ride by tourist train, visit to the remains of the rustic Roman villa from the I. century B.C.

in the bay of Verige, and the safari park which breeds the following animals: zebra, Somali sheep, zebu

(the holy east Indian humped ox), dromedary, llama and elephant. For lovers of history the highlight

will probably be a visit to the Church of St. Germain with its permanent exhibition of copies of frescoes

and Glagolitic writings from Istria.

After the tour you will go back to Fazana via small boat (public transfer at 05:30PM), where your

personal driver will be waiting to transfer you back to Rovinj.

National park Brijuni consists of 14 islands that are situated on a 7-km stretch between Pula and Rovinj.

Nature has created quite a little paradise here – a true harmony of flora and fauna, historical

monuments and comfortable hotels.

This group of islands comprising of two large and twelve smaller isles, are strung along Istria’s south

western coast not far from Pula. Their surface area is barely seven km2, but together with the

surrounding sea the total area of the park is 34 km2.

Brijuni are renowned for its nature and the unspoiled Mediterranean vegetation, but the islands also

boast an invaluable cultural heritage dating from the Roman and Byzantine times, which alongside

with the outstanding natural beauty, has made them a popular holiday destination among the world

statesmen and the aristocracy. Veliki Brijun offers accommodation in three small hotels, enabling their

guests to savor an atmosphere of peace while being surrounded by beautiful nature and having the

tourist flurry of Pula within easy reach. The site of the first golf course in Croatia is on Brijuni.

Because of the millennial presence of men on the archipelago of Brijuni, the animal world on the

islands, especially Veliki Brijun, besides the autochthonous species, was enriched by many imported

species that are not congenial to this habitat but got acclimated to it thanks to the almost ideal

microclimatic conditions.

* Please note: this is not a private tour, other people may be joining you

* Included: round transfers, guide at Np Brijuni (group tour), tickets for National park Brijuni, biking,

August 25th / Disembarking from your private

boat in Rovinj harbor

XX:XXAM The personnel of the hotel will wait for you at Rovinj harbor and escort you to the

hotel

Rovinj is considered to be one of the most beautiful towns on the Croatian coast because of its unique

appearance and its wonderful natural surroundings. It developed in the tradition of a small fishing

town under the watchful eye of its patron saint, St. Euphemia, with a distinctive form of boat, the

Batana, and the recognizable bitinada songs. Rovinj's architecture resembles Venice's and it is an ideal

place for intimate atmosphere. Endless walkways, numerous islands and beautiful beaches close by

overwhelm you by peace. The expansion of tourism and its mass character allowed a creation of the

famous Riviera’s, wintering-balneological and especially climatic health resorts and spas. Its beauty is

especially valued by artists who painted the most beautiful motifs of this town and exhibited them in

Grisia. Organized on a Sunday in August when the street paved with shiny stone, walls, doors, windows

and blinds get decorated with countless paintings, sculptures, installations and other colorful items –

fruits of creativity produced by artists form the entire Istria, Croatia and beyond.

Explore Rovinj

Meeting point 10:00AM / Hotel lobby / 3h tour

The old town of Rovinj is a live witness of past times, where confined space led to the construction of

Bronze Age, while the Old Town core began to develop in the 3rd century. At the beginning of the 18th

century the city spreads outside the city walls towards the mainland and the channel in between is

buried, forming a peninsula. Discover with your private guide the lower town, the upper town, the

picturesque Carera street, the Bridge Square, the Balbi Arch testifying to the Venetian presence
