Did you know that Rovinj was once an island? Have you heard of Croatian Atlantis? Did you know that prohibition and speakeasies existed in Rovinj centuries before those in the US? These and many more questions will be answered on this unique Rovinj tour.

The tour starts on the Trg Marsala Tita and goes straight into the Old Town. Listen to the intriguing history of Rovinj while strolling the cobbled narrow streets and small squares. Hear about the pirate origins of the city followed by Roman rule, through years of prosperity in the Venetian Republic, Austrian investments, and the brutal 20th century filled with fascism, communism, and wars. On your way, you can admire all the must-see attractions and discover many hidden gems known only to locals.

Finally, climb the highest tower in Istria - St. Euphemia's Belltower, to be rewarded with breathtaking views. The visit to Rovinj wouldn't be complete without tasting the finest Istrian liqueur - Teranino, made in a family-owned distillery.
