Lying on a small peninsula surrounded by city walls and fortresses, Korčula is one of the most beautiful medieval cities on the Adriatic Coast. Covered in dense pine forest, the island was named Korkyra Melaina, meaning “Black Korčula”, by the Greeks in the 3rd century B.C. It is considered to be the birthplace of Marco Polo, famous world traveler. We tour its charming streets and squares with Renaissance palaces, town loggia and magnificent Cathedral of St Mark, the city’s patron saint.
This excursion also includes a drive across the picturesque peninsula of Pelješac, famous wine-growing area, with a stop in Prizdrina for a wine tasting.
