Rovinj • Gay Friendly Tour & Old Town’s Secrets
Enjoy a very special LGBT tour in Rovinj, a city which was born as a coincidence, an attempt of survival- and you would never even imagine that when sipping your perfect Italian coffee at water front gazing at the boats in the port. It used to be an island, a small village surrounded by walls. The little settlement eventually overgrew the island and the channel, that had always protected it from dangers, had to be landfilled in 1763. By then, Rovinj was the major town of Istria - the richest, the most populous, the most lively area of the wider region; an important trade stop exporting olive oil, wine, salted fish and stone. Today, Rovinj is definitely one of the best known places in Croatia as well as the iconic landmark of the region of Istria. This private tour is designed for those who would like to discover Rovinj in an unusual and interesting way. We will start at the Valdibora farmers' market area, walk through the market and make our way through the Lower town to the Bridge Square. That is where it all began- historically the narrowest section of the channel, now a beautiful square where all major streets from the old and new towns meet. Along Carera street and the water front we reach the main Square where the old „Batana“ boats are still visible in the harbor (Intangible Cultural Heritage recognized by the Unesco) - a stop at the Batana museum is paramount to better understand why. Both on Antonio Balbi's Arch and the clock tower testify the presence of Venice and its winged lion. Next, we make our way through the cobbled streets of old Rovinj, passing by the City Hall, the Big Square, through the old Jewish Quarter to Saint Euphemia's. This large catholic church is the symbol of the town, watching over the Rovinj aquatorium.
Included:
* Gay or Lesbian Friendly Tour Guide for City Tour (3 hours)
