Croatia 2020 |
|
| Corona in Croatia also had a positive effect: empty tourist hotspots, such as Dubrovnik. On our way to Croatia, we first stopped at the Postojna Cave and Predjama Castle in Slovenia. Then we stayed for 2 days at the Valalta campground on the Istrian peninsula and visited from there Rovinj, Pula and Motovun. Then we continued to Dubrovnik. We booked a guided tour through the old town. In normal times, it usually has 30 to 40 participants. When we took the tour, we were the only ones. We also went up on Mount Srđ by cable car and visited the nearby island of Lokrum by boat. On another day, we did a combined kayak and bicycle tour at the Elaphite islands of Lopud and Šipan. We drove to Split and saw the remains of Diocletian's palace, before we boarded the ferry to Ancona in Italy and drove to San Marino for a brief stop over. |
