Overview

Begin your small-group experience with a guided visit to Ancient Apollonia. Spend quality time exploring the archaeological site as your guide provides story-based explanations covering daily life, trade, and culture in the ancient city, giving insights that most standard tours skip.

After Apollonia, head to Zvërnec Island for a calm, flexible visit. Enjoy free time to walk around, explore the monastery, or relax by the lagoon. This slower pace ensures a meaningful cultural experience rather than a rushed itinerary.

With a group size from 6–8 participants, enjoy personal interaction, time for questions, and a more intimate experience. There are no shopping stops and no forced schedules — this tour is all about history, culture, and relaxation.
