Meet your guide at the pier, where your walking tour of Korcula commences. First, wander into the Old Town of Korcula—a painstakingly planned masterpiece of architecture and urban design. The layout of the streets resembles the shape of a fish skeleton, a design that takes advantage of different wind directions in order to circulate clean air—a giant air conditioning system—while protecting the town from strong winds. You’ll visit the Cathedral of St Mark—a splendid example of Korcula's famous stone masonry. Following this, relax on a scenic drive to the village of Lumbarda, originally established by Greek settlers. Here you will have the intriguing opportunity to visit a local family at home, where you can taste some traditional delicacies such as homemade cheese, smoked ham, capers, salted fish salad and the excellent wine produced in this region.
