Reisroute
Šibenik is een charmante kustplaats, bekend om zijn rijke geschiedenis, middeleeuwse architectuur en prachtige natuurlijke omgeving. Het is een van de oudste steden in de regio, met wortels die teruggaan tot de 11e eeuw, en is de thuisbasis van twee UNESCO World Heritage sites, waaronder de prachtige kathedraal van St. James. De stad heeft prachtige smalle straatjes, levendige pleinen en indrukwekkende forten, zoals Fort Saint Michael en Fort Barone, met een adembenemend uitzicht over de Adriatische Zee. Vanaf deze plek ziet u het fort van Sint Michael en hier leert u interessante feiten over de geschiedenis en de verbinding met Venetië. Je gids zal je vertellen over de verschillende strategieën die mensen in het verleden gebruikten om hun territorium te beschermen.
U leert over de historische betekenis van koning Petar Krešimir IV, een van de belangrijkste middeleeuwse heersers van Kroatië.
U wandelt met uw gids door het park. Het park biedt uitzicht op twee forten. De gids neemt je mee terug in de geschiedenis en vertelt je over een van de grootste veldslagen in Šibenik die plaatsvonden bij deze forten.
Je leert over een fascinerend tijdwaarnemingsapparaat dat water gebruikt om de tijd te meten, wat de vindingrijkheid van engineering laat zien.
Je zult ontdekken waarom de lokale bevolking deze straat niet bij zijn officiële naam noemt, en leren hoe mensen in het verleden het probleem van urineren in de hoeken hebben opgelost.
Je leert over het religieuze leven van de gemeenschap. Als de kerk open is, kunt u desgewenst het interieur van de kerk bekijken, dat ingewikkelde fresco's en een altaar herbergt, met ingewikkeld vakmanschap.
De gids vertelt verhalen achter de kerkgeschiedenis, de markt ernaast en de betekenis ervan voor het leven in de middeleeuwen. Je komt te weten waarom schepen één zeil moesten lenen als ze op de feestdag in de haven lagen.
Dit is waarschijnlijk de belangrijkste stop op de tour. U zult versteld staan van de feiten die u op deze plek zult horen.
U leert hoe u de tijd op zijn raadselachtige 24-uurs klok kunt lezen.
Uw gids geeft u inzicht in deze levendige hub voor lokale bijeenkomsten en openbare evenementen. U leert over de rijke historische en culturele betekenis.
Uw gids geeft fascinerende inzichten in de bouw, de UNESCO-status en het indrukwekkende kunstwerk. Je leert hoe het verbonden is met het Witte Huis in Washington, VS.
Eindig de tour met een rustige wandeling langs de boulevard waar u restaurants en cafés van uw interesse kunt vinden. Uw gids zal suggesties delen voor verdere verkenning of dineren.

My walking tour of Šibenik's Old Town with Ivana was absolutely amazing! Ivana is an excellent tour guide,incredibly knowledgeable and eager to share beautiful insights about this stunning UNESCO World Heritage site. She took me through all the major highlights, seamlessly blending the different historical eras of the city, from the breathtaking St. James's Cathedral to the surrounding fortresses. What really stood out to me were the unique details she pointed out that I might have missed on my own, like the fascinating historic clocks, including a water clock and a Roman numeral clock. If you are visiting Šibenik, this cultural tour is absolutely not to be missed. Thank you, Ivana, for a wonderful experience!
Thank you so much for your beautiful words. Spending the morning with you felt less like work and more like sharing my hometown with a friend. I truly believe every place becomes a little more special because of the people we meet there, and I'm so happy we had the chance to meet. I hope Šibenik brings a smile to your face whenever you think of it. Wishing you safe travels and many more moments that stay with you long after the journey is over. Here's to more adult money, more adventures, and more moments you'll never forget.
This tour was exactly what we were looking for! Ivana provided a wonderful look into the life and history of Šibenik. As a local, who grew up here, she was able to articulate how the city grew during the good times and how the people survived during the hard times. Her description of the Croatian inventors, artists and leaders gave us insight into how this wonderful country impacted the region and the world. Ivana’s charming personality was both lighthearted and professional making this a great experience. Highly recommended!!!
Thank you so much for your beautiful words. It was such a pleasure spending time with you and getting to know you a little along the way. One of the things I love most about this job is that complete strangers can meet for a couple of hours and leave feeling like friends. Maybe that's the magic of little towns. Hallmark certainly seems to think so. ;) I hope Šibenik became your own little Loveland, a place you'll always remember with a smile. Thank you for sharing a little piece of your journey with me. I hope our paths cross again someday. Ivana
From the moment we met Ivana, we knew she was an expert - not only speaking excellent English, but also sharing from an abundance of knowledge and understanding about the fascinating city of Sibenik. She went above and beyond what we imagined and was willing to keep answering our many questions- we were struck by how generous and winsome she was throughout the tour.
It was such a pleasure meeting you and spending time together in Šibenik. I enjoyed sharing the city’s stories, and local atmosphere with you. I liked the positive energy throughout the tour. Thank you again for your kindness and for taking the time to share your experience. I hope your travels continue to bring you many beautiful memories. You are always welcome back.
Exceptional tour! Perfect for 1st time visitor to Sibenik, especially for cruises. Our guide Ivana was wonderful in planning the excursion weeks in advance, setting up a very easy meeting point only a short walk from the ship and then in tailoring the highlights we saw while we walked the streets of Old Sibenik. She grew up in the town with her family who still live within the city walls so you get a visual history lesson from someone who knows it first hand. Our group of 4 had a wonderful and very enjoyable 3.5 hours with Ivana in her town. Great first stop in Croatia!
Thank you so much for taking the time to write the review. I really enjoyed spending the afternoon with all four of you and sharing my hometown stories and memories. You were such a lovely and curious group to walk with, which always makes the experience even more special for me as a guide. I’m glad Šibenik became such a beautiful first memory of Croatia for you. Wishing you many more wonderful moments and safe travels ahead!
Very good choice, Ivana a guide as willingness and knowledge of your activity, without hurry and with many things to transmit.. you must put it in your schedule on your next trip, without a doubt
Thank you for your kind words. I'm truly grateful you took the time to share your experience. It was a pleasure spending time with you. I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed the relaxed pace and felt the experience was meaningful. I look forward to welcoming you again whenever your travels bring you back this way. Until then, safe travels and all the best. P.S. Hope the Jugo wind didn’t bother you too much! ;)
My family of 4 had a wonderful tour with Ivana! We learned a lot about Sibenik and my girls (ages 10 & 13) picked up some fun facts along the way. It’s rare to have a tour guide who grew up in the old town and still lives there - her perspective was fascinating. Definitely recommend this tour!
I'm so happy to hear you and your family enjoyed the tour. It was a real pleasure showing your lovely family around Šibenik. I'm so glad to hear your daughters enjoyed the tour. I always try to make history come alive for younger guests. Growing up in the old town has given me a deep connection to this beautiful place, and I'm grateful I could share that with you. I truly appreciate your recommendation and hope our paths cross again someday. Warm regards.
Amazing to visit Old town center. Great atmosphere, center is surrounded historical churches, restaurants, hotels and houses. If you staying in Sibenik Resort you can enjoy boat ride to get there. Perfect holiday tour!!!
