Highlights
  • Sibenik - This oldest native Croatian city on the Adriatic is located in the most protected natural harbor in the center of the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea. This is probably in the same place where some of the original Croatian settlers first saw the blue sea.

Sibenik’s narrow winding streets, stony houses, many staircases and the remains of the city walls give it a romantic Mediterranean atmosphere. St. Jacob’s Cathedral is the most famous building in Sibenik. It was constructed over a period of a century, and is testimony to the determination, sacrifice and belief of the generations of inhabitants of Sibenik.

Discovering this city, you will feel the soul of the Mediterranean. In some parts of the old town you will have the feeling that you are back in the time of 15th or 16th century. Your will take a walk through the narrow streets of Sibenik, leading to attractive squares where you’ll find architecture of centuries gone by. You’ll discover details you won’t find in travel brochures.

  • Skradinski Buk Waterfall - Once in the Park, you may enjoy last set of falls, before the river meets the sea. The Skradinski Buk Fall is a spectacular multi level cascade over travertine cliffs. This waterfall is known as a most beautiful waterfall in Europe. It is 46 meters high, which makes it the highest travertine (gypsum) barrier in Europe. Above the falls is a large plateau that offers spectacular views and a perfect photo opportunity.
    The Krka river spills here over the 17 cascades which you can view on a leisurely and safe walk along the walking trails and wooden bridges.
    You’ll also have a chance to visit the small ethnological exhibition and the old mill. The whole area is rich with flora and fauna. Due to strict new preservation laws, this extraordinary area has been kept in its original state.

Swimming is not permitted at Skradinski buk!

Additional Information

Sibenik is an unseen jewel of the Adriatic coast, positioned between Zadar and Split at the mouth of River Krka.

This one-of-a-kind city took birth from a fort built by the Croatians in a naturally sheltered bay.

The city stands out for a number of reasons!

Here, it seems like the clock has stopped ticking. Wandering through its narrow, cobblestone lanes is akin to travelling back in time.

The fame of the town is primarily owed to the Cathedral of St James, which is bestowed with the honor of being a UNESCO world heritage. There are multiple reasons for this, which you’ll discover upon reaching here.

Just a brief 15-20 min car journey away from Sibenik lies the entrance to Krka NP.

Our itinerary encompasses a walking tour around the most renowned waterfall in Europe. This waterfall, ‘Skradinski buk’, is a blend of 17 cascading falls. In simple words, it is a water-themed artistic marvel.

  • Transportation with a family car (4+driver). If you are a family with children or a group of 4, but the size of the car suits you, feel free to go ahead with the booking.

City and Nature - Our tour of the Old Town was great and Mariana did a great job of showing us the highlights. Ana went with us to the beautiful waterfalls in the afternoon and it was not too crowded and a fairly easy walk, including the steps. A lovely mix of city and nature.
