Guided Tour
A guided tour is planned for Saturday, September 9, 2017. The bus is going in the direction of the Krk Bridge. We are going to visit the Biserujka Cave, which is located in the north-eastern part of the island of Krk. After seeing the cave, the bus is going to continue to the Town of Punat. We are going to cross the parallel which passes 45° of northern latitude! We are going to board a ship and go to the islet of Košljun – a forest reserve and a cultural monument. One can find there an extremely rare copy of Ptolemy's Atlas published in Venice in 1511. Subsequently, we are going to return to Punat and continue to Vrbnik. There, we are going to taste wines, prosciutto and cheese in the cellar of the Vrbnik Agricultural Society. We are also going to take a walk through Vrbnik and see the old town centre, which is fascinating to each visitor. After the sightseeing, we are going to have delicious fish in the tavern Luce. The return to Selce is expected in the evening.
