Explore Šibenik with Igor on a private 2 to 3 hour walking tour covering medieval lanes, local stories, and St James Cathedral.
“We booked this at the start of our holiday as we wanted to understand the history of Sibenik so we could explore on our own afterwards. It did not disappoint. Igor was very knowledgeable and made the tour fun and entertaining welcoming questions as we went around. It was a very hot evening and he supplied us with water for the tour which was very thoughtful. There were large groups from a cruise liner also touring and Igor made sure we did not just follow them around. We saw areas of the city that we would not have know existed. I would highly recommend this tour with Igor.”
