1.      Trip to Dubrovnik - DUBROVNIK SIGHTSEEING

This tour will take you to explore the Old City Dubrovnik.

Dubrovnik is an ancient town, surrounded by ramparts and fortresses. The City Walls are among the finest and most complete in Europe. They protected the freedom of Dubrovnik Republic for centuries. They surround the entire Old City with their 1940 meters of length and up to 25 meters of height.

A pleasant walk will take you to see: The Old Town's main street is called Stradun or PLACA. It is a, approximately 300 meter long, pedestrian zone and it runs from the Pile to Ploče gates, following the line of the channel that once divided the town into two parts; Sponza was one of the most important buildings in the city and remained in continuous public use until the end of the 19th C. Throughout the times of the Dubrovnik Republic it had different purposes and was used as a custom house, a mint and main warehouse; Franciscan monastery with the museum that contains the Old Pharmacy's inventory dates back to 1317 and it is a curiosity to its visitors; Dominican monastery with the collection of Dubrovnik School of Art 15th and 16th century; Rectors Palace that was the residence of the Dubrovnik's Republic Rector; Treasure of the Cathedral with the relic; and other places of interest.

 2. Trip to Cavtat - ANCIENT EPIDAURUS TOUR

Cavtat is a small town on the most southern part of the Croatian    Adriatic coast. It has developed from the ancient Epidaurus on the slopes of two peninsulas: Rat and Sustjepan. It owes its development to the geographical position in the southern Dalmatia with the fertile valley of Konavle in its hinterland. It is from that valley that the town was supplied with fresh water by a roman aqueduct. The archaeological researches of the roman sanctuaries, necropolis, thermal and the shipwreck sites, have not yet given a complete picture of that roman settlement from the beginning of new era.

This beautiful historic town is situated around twenty minutes drive from Dubrovnik. Our walking tour will takes us along a palm promenade and thru the stone alleys to reach the Racic Mausoleum built by the world famed Croatian sculptor Ivan Mestrovic.  Tour also includes the gallery of the great Croatian painter Vlaho Bukovac, the Franciscan monastery, Bogisic collection and the Baroque parish church.
