Istria bike and boat


Cycle from medieval hilltop towns such as Motovun through forests rich in truffles and along the Venetian influenced coast. This area is often likened to Tuscany but with many fewer people or developments. Italian influence can be seen everywhere i
Istria including the Italian appreciation fo excellent Wine, cheese, prosciutto and truffles. The world’s largest truffle, weighing almost three pounds, was unearthered here. „The heart of Europe“ is what the Istrians call their peninsula, inspired by its shape and its position at the crossroads of European arteries of cultures and nations.
This is where Central Europe and the world of Mediterranean meet. On this tour you will explore the most popular part of the Croatian coast. Starting in Pula, the ship will take you a bit further north every day, and our tour guides will show you the most beautiful routes of the whole coastal region. You will visit the paradise of nature on the islands of Brijuni, the Lim-channel with its caves, the coastal cities Porec, Rovinj and Pula, as well as the Istrian hinterland, a famous wine and truffle region. Rovinj, the starting port of the trip, can easily be reached by bus as well as by car. The trip always starts and ends on Sundays, which allows you an unhurried and comfortable arrival.
