Krka National Park is where waterfalls, Romans, Wars, monks, marenda, and electricity somehow all end up in the same story. We will for sure see, taste, and touch: the longest tufa barrier in Europe; waterfalls as “necklaces”; Romans who controlled the same passage that is today controlled by a traffic light; mixed religions and empires; more than 2,000-year-old technology that we are still using today; cascades that are “building themselves”; giant local infants; the same food that can be just food or a cultural phenomenon; “Venetian gold”; a tree from China for which you would have been executed at the time when merchants brought it; a “white” island; the border between fresh and brackish water; a natural cold tub that you can use; drink as part of identity; a meal that refuses to be rushed; the War of the Currents; a lookout point that was built for an Emperor and his wife, who didn’t show up; non-local fish without natural predators; a sustainable “washing machine”; and a lot more.

In just about 20 minutes after departure from Šibenik you will arrive in the city where sea and river becomes one. Take a trip to Skradin and discover Dalmatia in its full beauty. Skradin is a romantic Dalmatian town with narrow paved streets, passages and scales which you will enjoy in every step you take there. After pick - up, we head to Skradin in a modern, comfortable and air conditioned vehicle. You have free wi fi available too. If you want to feel and taste Dalmatia, this trip is for you!

Why is this tour unique? Because it’s basically time travel… with better views and no weird side effects :) In just half a day, you go from feeling like an extra in Game of Thrones (hello, medieval Šibenik ) to casually strolling through a tiny town where everyone probably knows each other—and might know you by the time you leave. You’ll wander maze-like stone streets, admire a UNESCO masterpiece, then suddenly switch centuries and land in ancient Roman vibes in Skradin. And just when you think, “okay, that was already a full day,”—boom—you’re on a boat, cruising into Krka National Park, heading straight for waterfalls that look like nature showing off for Instagram. No long drives. No wasted time. No boring bits. Just a perfectly packed adventure: history, culture, local life, and jaw-dropping nature. Basically, it’s the kind of tour where you finish and go: “Wait... we did ALL that today?!” :) And still have time for a glass of wine after.

This oldest native Croatian city on the Adriatic is located in the most protected natural harbour, in the centre of the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea. This is probably in the same place where some of the original Croatian settlers first saw the blue sea. Sibenik's narrow winding streets, stony houses, many staircases and the remains of the city walls give it a romantic Mediterranean atmosphere. The St. Jacob's Cathedral is the most famous building in Sibenik. It was constructed over a period of a century, and is testimony to the determination, sacrifice and belief of the generations of inhabitants of Sibenik. By many things it is unique not only in Croatian architecture, but in European architecture as well. It is entirely built of stone, no other material was used. It is unique in its brave structure of stone slabs and ribs, with no binding material; it is also unique among renaissance churches in its trefoil front facade. Finally, it is unique in the harmony of its architecture.

Ideal for travelers looking for outdoor physical activities, this experience combines a boat tour of the Sibenik waterfront with a walking or cycling trip through Krka National Park and swimming (or snorkeling) in Vidrovaca Bay. Other stops include the famous Skradinski Buk Waterfalls, the UNESCO-listed St. Nicholas Fortress, and the island of Prvic Luka.
