    About this experience

    We all know Croatia has a lot of history with interesting stories to tell. But, has everything been explored? Are there still places that are not known to the general population but will amaze you? You bet there are, and we're here to prove that! Step off-the-beaten-path on our historical & gastro tour of a mysterious island on a secret location in Croatia.

    • Use of snorkeling equipment

    What you'll see and do

    1. 10:00am - 10:30am High cliffs and secluded bays After a 45min speedboat ride from Split or Trogir, we'll stop in one of many breathtaking bays that were carved in the huge cliffs of this beautiful island. With the depth of 30 meters straight from the shore and the magnificent landscape, this place is a true oasis of wild nature. Refreshing dip and some sunbathing to properly start the day! ***SECRET LOCATION***

      30 minutes here

    2. 10:45am - 11:45am Secret military tunnel labyrinth As we continue our journey along the rocky island on one side and the open sea on the other, we stumble upon a bit milder bay where we dock our boat. Just a few steps away a mysterious door hides a stairway that leads to complete darkness. Flashlights on! This might sound like the first chapter of an adventure videogame, and believe me, that's exactly what it feels like! A whole labyrinth of tunnels, with each tunnel leading to its cannon pedestal! At this point, you're getting flashbacks of every war movie you've seen while your tour guide talks about the history and use of the tunnel complex below your feet. The tunnels are dry, full of fresh air, and the temperature inside is perfect to cool down on a hot summer day. ***SECRET LOCATION***

      60 minutes here

    3. 12:00 - 13:30 Mountain goat island and the Blue oasis With war stories on our mind and hot sun frying our skin, we move quickly to one of the most beautiful swim spots in Croatia, while passing by a small island with very special inhabitants. A group of mountain goats that get along pretty well with a few cormorants and hundreds of seagulls. Isn't nature amazing? The answer to that question becomes obvious just moments later when we enter the Blue oasis area. Turquoise colors of crystal clear and clean sea will leave you speechless. Time to jump in! ***SECRET LOCATION***

      60 minutes here

    4. 14:00 - 16:30 Wine tasting and under the bell lunch At this point, everyone on board is already hungry and can't wait to taste delicious authentic food, wine, and olive oil. We get picked up by the host and after a 15 min drive in a minivan, we find ourselves in a small village overlooking the whole island. This place is an inevitable spot for gastro tourists and those who are yet to become ones. A presentation and degustation based on olives, olive oil, and traditional dalmatian flavors, followed by homebaked bread, olive tapenades, salted anchovies and olives rounded by a few glasses of an authentic wine sort. Sounds inviting, doesn't it? Well, that's just an appetizer. The main course – grilled fish (catch of the day) or veal/lamb/chicken under the bell. Pure harmony of taste. ***SECRET LOCATION***

    Yellowstone - A Winter Wonderland

    Our family, ten of us spanning three generations, explored Yellowstone National Park with Off the Beaten Path this past December. The entire trip was a truly magical, never to be forgotten adventure. From Bozeman, Montana to Mammoth Hot Springs, the Lamar Valley, the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone, old Faithful and the Geyser Basins and so much more, finishing at the 320 Ranch our trip was flawless. Beginning with our first phone call with Judy, to planning the details with Carrie, to every moment we were so fortunate to spend with our amazing guide Brenda, we were treated like family. In the park travel is by snow coach, our two drivers were also incredible guides and teachers, each day was fun, exciting and very educational. If you want a unique, exciting, unforgettable family adventure, go to Yellowstone in the winter, and make sure you go with Off the Beaten Path, they are a first class company.

    Mysterious island – Historical & Gastro tour – off the beaten path: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Trogir.

    How much does Mysterious island – Historical & Gastro tour – off the beaten path cost?

    +

    Prices start at $1,005 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Trogir usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Mysterious island – Historical & Gastro tour – off the beaten path take?

    +

    Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Trogir is not rushed.

    Is Mysterious island – Historical & Gastro tour – off the beaten path worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Trogir, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Mysterious island – Historical & Gastro tour – off the beaten path?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Mysterious island – Historical & Gastro tour – off the beaten path suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Mysterious island – Historical & Gastro tour – off the beaten path?

    +

    Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Trogir can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Trogir and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Mysterious island – Historical & Gastro tour – off the beaten path start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Trogir within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Trogir?

    +

The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Trogir?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Trogir?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
