Korčula for Art and History Lovers Private Walking Tour
This is my favorite tour. The tour shows the most important art and cultural heritage Korčula preserved to this day and I am proud I can show it and explain it to my guests. Art is a universal language and Korčula will speak to you in its own, beautiful and unique. The tour is focused on Korčula's history, selected art collections and artworks by Marko Andrijić, a local artist who lived in the 15th and 16th centuries. This is a no - rush tour, with art and history presented in a popular way, easy to follow and understand. The tour is intended for travelers who want to acquire knowledge about the places they travel to and leave with the lasting memories. Guests will also hear about Marco Polo, the well known and most controversial traveler of all time. His connection with Korčula is, well, complicated. I was born and raised in Korčula and I live here. I love Korčula, art and history, so I guide about what I love. Welcome to Korčula :-)
