Ce qui vous attend

Au carrefour de l'Europe latine et slave, l'Istrie offre le meilleur des deux mondes. Si ce petit territoire concentre beaucoup à voir, cette visite vous propose d'en découvrir le meilleur : villages rustiques, ruines romaines, basiliques byzantines et un avant-goût de sa scène gastronomique de renommée mondiale. Vous visiterez Pula, Gržini et Poreč, en profitant de paysages pittoresques entre les arrêts. Karla, l'une de nos guides locales expertes, dit : "Lorsque nous visiterons le village de Gržini pour profiter d'un déjeuner fait maison, nous découvrirons un aspect de l'Istrie que la plupart des visiteurs ne voient pas. Nous goûterons au Maneštra, un plat traditionnel de campagne, et nous boirons du Malvazija, le meilleur des vins istriens, dans un restaurant du concept : De la ferme à la table."

Nous commencerons la journée à Pula, qui s'étend autour d'une baie dans le sud de la péninsule. Cette ville chargée d'histoire abrite un amphithéâtre romain bien préservé. Mais ce n'est que la partie émergée de l'iceberg : Pula regorge de vestiges antiques. Parmi les incontournables figurent le temple d'Auguste et l'arc de triomphe, ainsi que des églises byzantines et baroques et une forteresse des Habsbourgs.

Nous continuerons vers l'intérieur des terres jusqu'au hameau de Gržini pour un déjeuner traditionnel istrien, accompagné de vin de pays. Nous rejoindrons ensuite la côte pour explorer Poreč. Situé sur un promontoire compact, nous marcherons dans ses anciennes rues romaines de Decumanus et Cardo Maximus. Vous atteindrez le monument le plus important de la ville, la basilique Euphrasienne. C'est l'un des monuments les mieux conservés de l'art byzantin primitif en Méditerranée, et un site du patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO.

Istrian Hilltop Villages Tour with Local Speciality Tasting
Excursions & day trips

Istrian Hilltop Villages Tour with Local Speciality Tasting

Legend has it that in the Mirna valley lived giants who each built a hilltop hamlet. And this tour takes you to two of them. Istria's green hills are a place of mythical beauty, and nowhere more so than in the fairytale villages of Grožnjan and Oprtalj. Ivana, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Grožnjan was suffering from depopulation in the middle of the 20th century, so artists and musicians were encouraged to come and use its empty houses as studios. Today, there are about 40 ateliers and a popular summer music festival. Adding to the cultural mix, both villages have strong Italian communities.'Your adventure begins with a scenic drive through Istria's hills to Grožnjan – the artists' colony straddling a ridge. Wander its cluster of lanes lined with handsome stone-built homes, looking out for ancient churches and palaces. If you like arty souvenirs, the many galleries and shops are a great place to browse for handmade gifts such as jewellery, prints, textiles and fine art.Next, it's time to take a break with a tasting of local Istrian delicacies, along with wine and olive oil at a typical tavern. Rounding off the day is a visit to peaceful Oprtalj. With a long history stretching back to Roman times, there's a clutch of historic buildings to admire, including the Venetian loggia and the 16th century St George's church, located at the top of the hill overlooking the town. When you arrive at Oprtalj, your guide will show you around steep stone alleys boasting countryside views.

Ancient Istria Tour from Rovinj including Pula and Lunch

At the crossroads between Latin and Slavic Europe, Istria offers up the best of both worlds. It packs a lot into its small territory, so this tour shows off the best bits – rustic villages, Roman ruins, Byzantine basilicas and a taste of its world-class food scene. You'll visit Pula, Gržini and Poreč, enjoying scenic landscapes between stops. Karla, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘You'll get to see a side of Istria that most visitors miss when you visit Gržini village for a homemade lunch.

This storied town is home to a well-preserved Roman amphitheatre, but that's just the tip of the iceberg – Pula boasts a wealth of ancient relics. Must-sees include the Temple of Augustus and the triumphal arch, while there are also Byzantine and baroque churches as well as a Habsburg fortress.Next, we'll head inland to the hamlet of Gržini for a traditional Istrian lunch, washed down with local wine, before returning to the coast to explore Poreč. Set on a compact headland, we'll walk the old Roman streets of Decumanus and Cardo Maximus up to the most important monument in town – the Euphrasian basilica, one of the most beautifully preserved monuments of early Byzantine art in the Mediterranean, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
