Description

This tour starts at the lower entrance into the City's Park (Perivoj Roberta Visianija), in front of the monument of Croatian king Petar Krešimir IV.

On this tour, you'll see the main attractions: Poljana (main square), a replica of the 1895 city lamp (1st in the world to receive public lighting on alternating electricity), St John Church, Fortresses, Medieval Mediterranian Garden of St Lawrence, St James Cathedral (UNESCO heritage site since 2000) as well as other interesting sights (Greasy Street, Medieval dog's watering hole and many more). The tour ends in front of the Rector's Palace (now City Museum) near the beautiful Riva Waterfront.

Because of his teaching experience, Ante will enforce dialogue and provide much more personal contact. He will not only answer your questions but also pepper the tour with all sorts of interesting facts like major plagues, fires, and sieges that the city went through in its 1000 years of history. In that way, you'll get to experience the city in a fun and educational way.

Excellent tour

Ante was an excellent tour guide, very knowledgeable about Sibenik and its history. We appreciated his warmth, humour and the little tasks he challenged us with along the way. The local tips he sent afterwards were fantastic too, and he was patient with all our questions at the end. I highly recommend this tour - thanks so much Ante!
