Highlights
  • Vela Spila - Discover the secrets of Vela Luka’s ancient past at the Neolithic Cave overlooking the picturesque Vela Luka bay. This archaeological gem offers more than just a glimpse into history; it provides a captivating experience with a backdrop of breathtaking views of the village and surrounding hills. Step into the Neolithic era as you explore this remarkable cave, surrounded by the beauty of nature. The panoramic view from the cave is nothing short of spectacular, offering a tranquil panorama of Vela Luka village and the rolling hills that frame this coastal haven. Whether you’re an avid history enthusiast or simply seeking a serene escape, the Neolithic Cave above Vela Luka bay promises a journey through time amidst stunning landscapes. Embrace the allure of the past while immersing yourself in the beauty that surrounds this archaeological treasure. Uncover the mysteries of Vela Luka’s history, all while enjoying the charm of its present-day splendor. - Luka Mozaika - World’s Longest Mosaic - In the summer of 1968, Vela Luka welcomed thirty world-renowned artists who crafted mosaics adorning public spaces. Fifty years later, the Luka Mozaika project rekindles that creative spirit, initiating a mosaic workshop to craft the world’s longest stone mosaic right here in Vela Luka. Residents and visitors, hailing from places like China, Russia, Japan, South Africa, Australia, EU, Argentina, USA, Canada, and Palestine, came together to create hundreds of mosaics. This mosaic stands as a collective ode to the beauty of creativity, diversity, and community—a testament to how a small town can tell a global story. - Vela Luka - You will discover why the history of Vela Luka is intricately linked to the history of Korčula and, in a broader context, to Dalmatian vineyards. Explore the reasons why there are more inhabitants from the western part of Korčula in Australia than in their hometown. Uncover the role pirates played in the delayed emergence of Vela Luka.

🥰🥰🥰 - It was fantastic! Balkans are the best place for me to spend leisure time. The atmosphere was so cosy and we made really good friends with the guide 🥰🙃 Small islands attract me because of their local culture and unique traditions. Thank you very much. Hope to come back there one day 🥳

Magic tour 💙 - Thanks to Marinka I learnt a lot not only about the interesting history of Vela Luka and island Korcula but about the local plants, trees and herbs. 🌸🍀 She took me to the magic place, on the hill where is the most important archaeological site in Mediterranean area, cave the Vela spila. The view is unbelievable over the town, deep green forests and blue sea 💙💚 I loved this tour and so nice guide Marinka who involved me to real life and nature. ❤️

Amazing hikes, insights and views - My wonderful tour with Marinka not only deepened my understanding of the history of the western part of Korčula island but also provided valuable insights into the history of Dalmatia. I’m impressed with Marinka and her local community projects. Marinka’s fascinating tour helped to contextualize my knowledge of the region. Although I am not a botanical expert, this tour introduced me to a variety of local plants and herbs, including their uses, and of course the olive trees that are so important to the island, as well as vineyards and much more. We enjoyed two great hikes with amazing views!
