A great way to explore the island off the beaten track, through the lavender fields, through atmospheric abandoned villages and along the coastline back to Hvar. We walked about 15km and I’d classify most of the hike as easy to moderate. Our guide Mario was sensational! So well informed, very patient and loved a good chat:) Thoroughly recommended hike!

Magical walk from high in Hvar (they drove is to the start) to the sea. Saw lavender and herbs growing in the wild,ate walnuts, fruit from the strawberry tree and fruits from the carob tree. Marco was a fantastic and relaxed guide and knowledgeable about all the local fauna and history. Easily manageable, this is a must for anyone who wants to do more than just sample the food, drink and views that Hvar town has to offer. A truly inspiring walk with a chilled out host, cheers Marco!

I can’t say enough good things about Marko, our guide for this tour. We were expecting to visit a lavender farm but this adventure really is more of a hike. We passed through some small hillside villages in Hvar, including one that was totally abandoned (save for a lovely restaurant/bar where we cooled off and had a drink). Definitely be aware that this is a more strenuous hike, and plan your footwear and hydration needs accordingly. I would do it again, especially for Marko’s expertise and insights on history and local plant life.
A Treat for the Senses!

A short ride from town took us to an island high spot where we started our easy hike through rock-walled fields, abandoned villages and quaint konobas (open-air tavernas). Our guide Marco pointed out the many flowers (lavender), herbs (rosemary, dill, oregano) and aromatic plants that made each breath feel like aromatic therapy! NOTE: Be sure to wear hiking/closed shoes!

Fantastic hiking tour of Hvar's countryside! There was just me and my husband and our guide Josko on our tour hence was very friendly and interesting, without having to slow down for a large group of people. The lavender was beautiful but the trip was much more than this. Josko was a very friendly, interesting and informative guide. He told us about different flowers and herbs and their uses, also about the old villages and about the history of Hvar and Croatia. At the end of the hike we visited a lovely beach for a very refreshing swim
Amazing hiking tour
