Transfer to Šibenik, National Park Visit & City Tour

After breakfast at the hotel, depart in the morning for Krka National Park. Accompanied by a local guide, you’ll have the opportunity to experience the natural features of the park, which extends over 109 square kilometers along the Krka River. Established in 1985, the park was created to protect the area’s unique ecosystems and geological features. It is known for its series of seven waterfalls, including the well-known Skradinski Buk, where clear water flows over natural limestone steps. The park is also noted for its plant life, including a high concentration of lavender. In the afternoon, continue on to the coastal city of Šibenik for a guided walking tour. Situated where the Krka River meets the Adriatic Sea, Šibenik is recognized as the oldest Croatian town founded by native Croats. The city was first recorded in 1066, during the reign of King Kresimir IV. A key highlight of your visit will be the Cathedral of St. Jacob, designed by Juraj Dalmatinac and listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. As you walk through the old town, you’ll also see churches, palaces, monasteries, and the remains of fortresses that reflect the city’s long and complex past.
