Tours in Croatia by Secret Dalmatia

Hvar

The essence of Hvar

The gorgeous town of Hvar exudes the sultry ambiance of Venice, set around a picture-perfect bay and the largest and most elegant square in Dalmatia. Fronted with stunning Gothic palaces and marble streets that shine in the golden Mediterranean light, Croatia’s most famous harbor town is also one of Europe’s hottest destinations for swanky sun-soaked revelers, luxury yachters, and hedonists ready to party through the night in the famous cocktail bars that line the waterfront promenade. Amongst the glitz and glamour though, Hvar town and the peaceful reaches of the island remain as they always have – quintessential seaside beauty and rustic Dalmatian charm, where authentic lives are lived – standing for what made Hvar a destination in the first place; with the first development of organized tourism beginning on the island over 150 years ago.

Adventurous, off the beaten path excitement where your guide will take you places only locals know, exploring the hidden and mysterious parts of Hvar Island that time has forgotten.
