Very knowledgeable local guide - We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Saša. He gave us a wonderful introduction to Korčula and its rich history, and also shared personal insights about growing up in the town and how it has evolved over the years. Saša is knowledgeable, friendly, and incredibly patient. We would gladly take a tour with him again and highly recommend him as a guide.

Great short tour to learn about the history of Korčula - Saša is a very knowledgeable, super friendly guide. Not only he gave us a tour of the Old Town and told us about the history of it, he also sent us a very detailed email with recommendations for restaurants, places to visit and beaches we can’t miss. We can’t recommend him enough. My daughter and I had a very nice time and will contact him again when we come back.
