Visiting Stari Grad and Driving to Zadar

ByTravelling Minion November 23, 2018 2 Comments
Heading to Stari Grad Aside from Hvar Town and the Blue Caves, the other noteworthy spot we looked up while on Hvar Island is Stari Grad. We read that Stari Grad is a smaller and quieter town in comparison to Hvar Town. It's a beautiful seaside town, so we wanted to check it out. We drove for 20 minutes from our AirBnB, past the ferry terminal and into Stari Grad. It's a small town and we almost...

Cruising to the Blue Caves

Morning came pretty quickly! In fact we got up a little earlier so that we could grab a quick breakfast before meeting the boat that would be taking us to the Blue Caves. We strolled into the center of town and we were treated to the beautiful seaside town that is Hvar Town! After grabbing breakfast, we walked over to the port/dock area where we waited to meet our boat. Gimpy had booked this Blue...

Road Trip Begins! We were slated to pick up our car at around 9 AM this morning for our drive to Split. We needed head back to the airport and that meant getting on an early transfer bus.

It was another beautiful...

Hot Air Balloons…FINALLY

Hot Air Balloon Redemption With our GAdventures tour through Turkey over, we still had one big regret: We didn't hot air balloon in Cappadocia.

Ballooning in this region was at the very top of our list for...

Ayvalik The name of the game today would be to chill and we would be doing that in Ayvalik. After a quick breakfast in our Selcuk hotel, we got back on our bus for the drive to Ayvalik. It was an uneventful drive and after a few hours we entered Ayvalik. Our bus dropped us off a few blocks from where we would stay for the evening. Because of the way the streets are structured, it would have been...

Cruising to Kekova

Cruising around Kekova From Antalya, we continued our drive through Turkey. Our destination today would be Kas. However, before Kas we'd be spending the day on a boat sailing through the Mediterranean and around the Island of Kekova. It took us about an hour to arrive at the dock, where we grabbed our day bags and boarded the ship. It's a small boat with an open rear seating area, and a top and...
