Stop at ‘Lotrscak Tower’ where a cannon is fired every day at noon, take a picture of Zagreb’s most photographed multi-colored tile roof of St Mark’s church, pass Parliament ‘Sabor’ and presidential palace ‘Ban’s palace’, see people praying in front of the shrine of Virgin Mary at Stone Gate, walk on Tkalciceva street filled with little cafes that could only be described as ‘bohemian’, visit fruit and vegetable market at ‘Dolac’, enter Cathedral of the Assumption of Blessed Virgin Mary whose spires are visible from afar and complete the circle at Central square ‘Trg Jelacica’.

Your guide will introduce you to the region’s many legends and stories. Before arriving at the very end of Boka Bay, stop at the town of Perast to take a short cruise to the island, where a beautiful catholic church, Our Lady of the Rocks, sits. Island’s local guides will share with you stories of the former glory and wealth that seamen brought from far away seas to the town of Perast. Continue along the bay, to many a photographer’s dreams, to the pretty port town of Kotor, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Enjoy an orientation walk and free time before returning back to Dubrovnik.
Your chosen excursion to Medjugorje (lunch included) takes you on a scenic Adriatic road crossing the border with Bosnia&Herzegovina (passports handy!) and offers views of scenic Neretva river valley.
