Explore sunny Hvar Island on foot

Considered to be the most beautiful of the islands of Dalmatia (and known to be the sunniest), Hvar, with its wealth of wild flowers and bountiful fields of scented lavender and rosemary, is a nature-lover’s paradise. In Hvar Town itself, a combination of Renaissance palaces, ancient monasteries, and an elegant marina has created one of the most chic resorts on the Adriatic Sea. The town is best known for its medieval buildings which are the legacy of Venetian rule. On your tour you visit the old theatre, built in 1612, the arsenal, and the old patrician palaces from the 15th century. Perched high on a hill overlooking the town, the gleaming white limestone walls of the Spanjol Fortress afford breath-taking views.
