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? Where did the Croatian Titanic sink? Why does Santa Claus have a lot of work in Rovinj? Does Rovinj's patron saint work as a weather app? Is the Large Square really large?

The tour starts on the Trg Marsala Tita square and goes straight into the Old Town. While strolling the cobbled narrow streets and small squares you will learn the intriguing history of Rovinj, starting with its pirate origins followed by the Roman rule, through years of prosperity in the Venetian Republic, Austrian investments, and the brutal 20th century filled with fascism, communism, and wars.
On our way, we will see all the must-see attractions, but also discover many hidden gems known only to locals. We will climb the highest tower in Istria - the 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. Let us be your guides, and fall in love with Rovinj!
