Happy in Hvar - Urška we a wonderful guide for us on the Island of Hvar. My husband has mobility issues and she went the extra mile to make sure he was comfortable. She provided us with lots of interesting info as well as sharing her personal experience living on the beautiful island. We love food so it was a special treat for us to experience all the local delicacies. We enjoyed everything so much we ended up taking chocolate, olive oil and honeys back home with us!
