My wife and I will be traveling to Croatia at the end of May and are so excited!
This is our current plan:
1) Fly into Dubrovnik
2) Spend 3 days in Dubrovnik
3) Either drive or take the ferry to Hvar early morning
4) Spend the rest of the day and night in Hvar
5) Take the ferry to Split early morning
6) Stay in Split the rest of the day and the next day evening
So that comes out to:
- 3 days and 3 nights in Dubrovnik
- 0.5 days and 1 night in Hvar
- 1.75 days and 2 nights in Split
We have been told that Dubrovnik is definitely the best of the 3 cities to visit, so we will be spending the most time there, but we have also been told that Hvar is much more interesting than Split, so we're unsure if we should stay one more night in Hvar instead of Split.
So the new plan would come out to:
- 3 days and 3 nights in Dubrovnik
- 1.5 days and 2 nights in Hvar
- 0.75 days and 1 night in Split
My wife and I are really into experiencing the culture and seeing the sights. We would love to experience a nightclub or some other social scene while out there, but it's not our primary focus. Which of the two proposed plans do you think would be best?
Also, would you recommend we rent a car to drive to Hvar to see some inland areas or should we take the ferry?
