The stops
Ston
An hour from Dubrovnik. A coffee, or a short part of the walls.
Šibenik
Steep stone streets and the Cathedral of St James, a UNESCO World Heritage site. An hour or two is enough.
Zadar
Drop-off at your accommodation. If it is in the old town, we agree the closest point the car can reach.
Good to know
This is the longest of these routes, so we start early and stop more often if anyone needs it.
