Hvar island tour

A perfect opportunity to see the Island with its interesting landscape and numerous villages. We will take you on a scenic drive along the panoramic old road, which connects Stari Grad and Hvar to Velo Grablje. Once a rich and advanced township, this area was an industrial centre for wine, olive oil, and honey, and the people were known as the greatest lavender-oil producers in Europe. One of our stops will include Vidikovac, a hill with immaculate views of Stari Grad and the deepest bay on the island. Have your camera ready. The scenery is lush and ripe with photo opportunities. Driving through the green inland of the island, we come to our next stop on the tour: Stari Grad, one of the oldest settlements on our coast. Here we will go on a brief walk through the stone streets of this colourful town, founded by the Ancient Greeks during the 4th Century BC, with visits to Hektorovic’s castle Tvrdalj, a Dominican Monastery, the ruins of the Ancient Pharos, and the 5th Century Church of St. John. After our visit to Stari Grad, we continue through the famous vineyards of UNESCO-protected Hora, the largest and most fertile field on the Adriatic islands. This area was divided by the ancient Greeks into smaller parcels, each of which was 900 x 180 meters. That parceling of land is still visible today, and it makes Hora the best-preserved Greek cadastre in the Mediterranean.
