Excursion Exclusive brunch with family at stari grad plain tour at Hvar

Hvar, Island Villages & the Stari Grad Plain

After tendering ashore, enjoy a brief stroll to the awaiting coach before setting off on a scenic drive through the charming villages of Hvar Island. Your route leads to the renowned Stari Grad Plain—known locally as Hora—an approximately 30-minute journey through Hvar’s serene countryside.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Stari Grad Plain is the largest and most fertile cultivated field in the Mediterranean islands. Remarkably unchanged since the arrival of the ancient Greeks some 2,400 years ago, this vast agricultural landscape still reflects its original geometric layout. The early settlers from the island of Paros enriched the soil with vines and olive trees, creating a legacy that endures to this day.

Hora Estate & Garden Experience with Brunch

Your exploration continues at the Hora Estate, a family-run property nestled in the heart of the plain. Here, you are welcomed for a delightful organic brunch, featuring locally grown produce and traditional island flavours served in a peaceful garden setting.

Stari Grad Town: Guided Walk & Leisure Time

Following brunch, re-board your coach and continue to the charming town of Stari Grad. Set along a deep natural bay that has inspired artists and poets for centuries, Stari Grad is the island’s oldest settlement, dating back to the 2nd century B.C.

Enjoy a guided walking tour through its atmospheric streets, followed by time at leisure to browse boutiques, relax at a café, or explore the town’s historic corners independently.

At the conclusion of your visit, rejoin your coach for the scenic, approximately 30-minute return drive to the pier.
