We will visit the old town of Trogir, a UNESCO World Heritage site. See the Radovan Portal, an early 13th-century Romanesque masterpiece. Explore historical monumental buildings dating back to the 14th century, showcasing beautiful Gothic architecture. The central city core is completely made of stone—a stunning piece of living history. You will also have free time to enjoy a cup of coffee, ice cream, or brunch.
