What to expect
You'll spend most of the journey watching the landscape shift from coastal plains toward limestone hills. Driving time between towns clips along smoothly; your driver handles the local roads. Once in each town, you're free to wander—climb the steps, duck into side streets, pop into a bar. The route is deliberately paced to avoid rushing; you'll have genuine breathing room to sit with a coffee or photograph corners that catch your eye. Expect cobblestones, gentle inclines and compact centres that reward slow exploring.
Good to know
Lunch is not included; plan ahead or ask your driver for trusted spots. Paid monument entry (churches, museums) is separate. Professional guides are available on request—book early if you want detailed commentary. Prams and infant seats are available; the vehicle is accessible for all fitness levels.
