The old town of Korčula is one of the best preserved medieval towns in the Mediterranean. Walls and towers defended the strategic position of the city, whose layout of streets and squares is designed in the shape of a herringbone in order to provide residents with security and comfort. The Statute of the town, dating from 1214, regulated life in Korčula. Stonecutting and shipbuilding were the most important Korčula crafts from ancient times. According to legend, the city was founded by the Greek hero Antenor after the fall of Troy. Marko Polo, a famous traveler, is believed to be from Korčula. As added value, we also visit Matuško winery on Pelješac.

The Walls of Ston are a series of defensive stone walls, originally more than 7 kilometers long, that surrounded and protected the city of Ston in Dalmatia, part of the Republic of Ragusa, in what is now southern Croatia. Their construction was begun in 1358.
Lined with long shingle beaches, the Pelješac peninsula that stretches out north of Dubrovnik towards Korčula is that wonderful rarity—a Dalmatian getaway without the crowds. Welcoming windsurfers and wine lovers alike, Pelješac is also known for its oysters and mussels, arguably the best in Croatia. Once the northern outpost of the Ragusa Republic, today’s Dubrovnik, Pelješac still contains the unique historic attraction of the Walls of Ston, Europe’s longest fortification.
