Description

The largest peninsula on the Adriatic Sea, Istria is known for its beautiful seaside towns and white pebbled beaches. Discover another side of the geographically diverse region on a tour of the peninsula's best inland spots. Journey through green hills and lush vineyards to visit several medieval walled towns that boast astonishing views of nearby valleys, fields, and mountains. Stop first at the town of Grožnjan, home to a number of artist colonies. Stroll down the narrow streets of a town long occupied by foreign powers which today feels more Italian than Croatian. Continue on to Livade and taste the famous Istrian truffles. Then enjoy a sightseeing tour of Motovun, a captivating hilltop town that serves as a characteristic symbol of the Istrian interior. Admire the confluence of Romanesque, Gothic, and Renaissance styles and learn about the influence of the Venetian Empire on the region. Head towards Pazin and check out its impressive medieval castle before sitting down to enjoy some local cuisine.
