Overview of your Zadar tour

We meet at the Sea Organ, and when their sounds charm you like modern version of the sirens from the Greek stories, I will propel you on to breathtaking voyage through over 2000 years of still visible history (and a 1000 more of the recorded). We will walk by a city market to introduce you to the local products. I will show you not only colors of the market, the smells you'll discover on your own (especially if the fish market is open), but I'll pick up some 'fritule' or 'krostule' (typical pastry snacks) at local bakery so you would not taste on the empty stomach Maraschino - local aperitif liquor. Than we will head to Nin, referred as Croatian Bethlehem, city of kings. There are stories revolving about our Kings that include vineyards and a beach. If you think of a pinch of salt is needed reading this, you will love Nin salt pans in which still the salt is produced same way like 3000 years ago. The very same salt, together with bura wind is key ingredient of 'sokol'. There are some fairies involved too ;
