IntroductionLying on a small peninsula on the island of the same name, surrounded by city walls and fortresses, Korcula is one of the most beautiful medieval cities on the Adriatic Coast. The town is also the supposed birthplace of Marco Polo, the famous explorer. Tour the charming streets and squares, with their Renaissance palaces and the magnificent St Mark Cathedral, named for the city's patron saint. The island of Korcula undoubtedly holds a privileged position among the Croatian islands. Here, there are more legends, tales and monuments than anywhere else. Being stonemasons, shipbuilders and seafarers, the people of Korcula shared their gifts with the world, but they saved their best works for their own city.
A bus will carry you to Orebic, where a ferry takes you to the island. Experience the charming streets, beautiful churches and magnificent palaces in the island's city of the same name, which is also one of the best preserved medieval towns in the Mediterranean. You'll also hear a little history of the town's famous son, Marco Polo, who many believe was born here. After sightseeing, enjoy free time to have lunch and even go swimming.
On the way back to Dubrovnik, indulge in excellent local wine at one of the well-known wine cellars on the Peljesac peninsula.

The bus ride to the ferry had some stunning views of the Adriatic coastline. That alone made the trip worthwhile. Also, the guide gave us lots of interesting information on the bus.The ferry ride over to the Island of Korcula was short but beautiful. Once on the island, we were given a short guided tour and told what and where to find different things to see and do. We chose to eat a wonderful lunch along the promenade overlooking the sea, gorgeous! Then we went swimming in the sea, very fun. We enjoyed the free time on the island. On the return trip, we stopped at a winery for a tasting of about 6 wines. It was a big winery and they had a quaint shop to buy wine and gifts. The return trip stopped at Ston but didn't have enough time to really climb the ancient wall, but was interesting to look at. Some toured the salt pans and factory.
Then another ride along the beautiful coastline to Dubrovnik. Felt it was a very good value for the variety of things to do and the scenery alone! 2011-10-02 John P , Relaxing day with a coastal drive, ferry transfer and a nice lunch overlooking the sea from a cool, shaded terrace. 2011-09-04 mr r h , Lovely day! The weather was PERFECT, the sights of the road stunning and Korcula is one of the most beautiful places i´ve ever been...
the visit to the winery was a great ending for this day! I truly recommend the wine Dingac! I regret having bought just 1 bottle.... 2011-07-08 Fernanda S , We've been fortunate to have travelled widely. Korcula is truly a magical place and one of the very best and most beautiful places we've ever visited. The tour was great and as we have booked many Viator tours in the past, we will continue to do so, as they do not disappoint.

We started the journey mid-morning at a beautiful spot, followed by comfortable short, informative tour and then had plenty of time for independent exploration of the island before our return journey. This time we spent on a winery visit. Thoroughly recommended and excellent value for money. 2009-09-21 Anne E, United Kingdom
