TOUR DESCRIPTION

Korčula – exclusive speedboat excursion

Hvar is blessed with some spectacular nearby island neighbors, so taking a speedboat over to the island of Korcula is a must – because it’s one of Europe’s best-kept secrets.

Enjoy a full day of fabulous memories – from the stunning architectural beauty of Korcula’s Old Town, to great beaches, the island’s lush green interior, rich cultural legacy and some of the best white wines in the entire country.

And we haven’t yet mentioned Korcula’s most famous citizen – Marco Polo, who legend says was born here (you can even visit his house).. Surrounded by such beauty, one has to wonder why he felt the need to travel at all!

Your speedboat tour takes you past the gorgeous southern shore of Hvar to Korcula Town, with an optional swimming stop on the way. As this is a private tour, you control the itinerary. Upon arrival in the superbly preserved old town, your guide will conduct a one-hour walking tour of the town with its centuries of rich history, which also includes a visit to the birthplace of Marco Polo. After this, you will have some free time to explore, as well as some great lunch recommendations in local restaurants.

For the more adventurous, there are additional options, including an optional short cruise to the nearby Mljet National Park on the island of the same name.

Or why not explore the fabled wines of Korcula. Posip is the most widely available variety, but it is Grk which is not only the most intriguing but which also gets most of the accolades. A white variety which only grows on the sandy soil of the village of Lumbarda, it is in such high demand and limited supply that sales after tasting are limited to just two bottles per person!

After a hard day touring Korcula, one final optional stop before arriving back to Hvar Town – a swim in a deserted lagoon on Hvar’s southern shores – the perfect way to end a memorable day.

More than we could imagine

‘’Fantastic… highly recommend! The day planned was more than we could imagine (Vis tour, Roiki restaurant, swimming, caves…. ahhhhh). Listen to all the advice Ines has to offer about your trip 🙂 ’’

Carla Sakrison

Rated 4.5/5

Really fun, great staff

‘’ We did a visit to Blue cave and green Cave and it was really fun. Great staff, you can book online, and it does not feel like the other companies always stopping you on the streets to buy. I would do more things with them if I come back to Hvar. Nice island!!’’

A great day at the sea

‘’ We had a wonderful day with Hvar Tour team Rocco and Josip … Green Cave and then Blue Cave (one of the most amazing nature surprises we’ve ever seen) and stopped in Komiza for a short sightseeing and quick swim… they took us to the beach who was voted by travelers as the most beautiful one in Europe: Stiniva … A full day off land that’ll not forget and, very important, no sunburns because the boats have shade.’’
