Itinerary in detail

Every trip is shaped around you. Below is a sample route to start from; we change any part of it to suit you.

Days 1-4

Welcome to Split

Although Croatia’s second largest city, Split is often viewed as a jumping off point for adventures to the islands beyond. It won’t take you long to realise that it’s very much a destination in its own right. Explore the town, savor the local flavours, and then spend a day island hopping between Hvar, Vis and Biševo.

Private walking tour

On this private walking tour you’ll see some of the highlights of Split, including a variety of Roman, Gothic, Romanesque, Renaissance, and other architectural remains. After your tour you’ll have the chance to enjoy a lunch and wine-pairing.

Day 5

Elegantly rustic Hvar

Hvar is both flashy and fantastically rustic. Beyond the show stopping, Venetian splendor of Hvar town’s elegant main square, steps lead to art galleries, quirky shops, and hole in the wall wine bars. The further you stroll the reaches of the promenade, more choices of a spot to spread your towel will appear – though the music and stylish loungers of Hula Hula may nab you first.

Cultural tour

On this cultural exploration of Hvar you’ll spend time connecting with the people and places. Begin in Stari Grad with a visit to Tvrdalj fortress built by Renaissance poet Petar Hektorović, and living heritage site Stari Grad Plain, an agricultural colony established by the Ancient Greeks. You’ll also visit the picturesque rural village of Vrisnik.

Days 6-8

Enchanting Dubrovnik

Glimmering on the Adriatic coast, enchanting Dubrovnik is Croatia’s most up-market destination. Lauded by George Bernard Shaw as “Paradise on Earth”, the city delights with its Mediterranean-style culture and the marbled streets of its UNESCO World Heritage old town. Take a walking tour through the old town and discover a mélange of cafés, shops, monuments and museums.
