This tour is a perfect combination of history and nature. Leave the old city of Split behind and head towards the beautiful city of Šibenik. This gem on the Adriatic coast is the first city in Dalmatia founded by Croatians. A short pleasant walking tour of the old part of the city along with the visit to the world famous St. James Cathedral will reveal all the secrets of Šibenik to you. After exploring typical Dalmatian narrow streets and picturesque squares, enter the magnificent St. James Cathedral with your guide who will explain to you why this true work of art forms part of the UNESCO World Heritage List. This sacral building will mesmerise you with its unique architectural solutions and its sculptural beauties.
As the journey continues, relax on your one our drive through the karst of the Šibenik-Knin County hinterland until you reach Krka Waterfalls National Park. Here, in this relaxing natural environment of Skradinski Buk, enjoy a pleasant stroll around the wooden paths that cover approximately 0,75 miles. Skradinski Buk is a natural home to more than 1000 herbal and 300 animal species. It also hosts 17 beautiful waterfalls of the Krka River that cascades over natural barriers. Learn about how these barriers were formed over the centuries while wandering around the park with your guide. Visit the nearby cluster of mill cottages; enter the workshops to learn about the traditional life in this area and check out the souvenir shop for some memorable souvenirs to take home. Don’t forget to enter the hundred years old mill which is still in function! If you get hungry you can eat some delicious meals for a very reasonable price in the restaurant near a small waterfall.
Make the most of your visit using your free time in the park to explore it on your own, to relax your body and mind in this unique natural environment, enjoy the sound of waterfalls and rare birds singing. Use these almost two hours to admire the nature from the dry land or jump into the river and refresh in the chilly waters of the Krka River. Swim really close to one of the waterfalls and get in touch with your wild side.
Later on, join the rest of the group and your guide to enter the bus and head back to Split where you will be droped off where you were picked up.
