Why is Hvar among Europes Best Island Escapes?


New York, NY (PRWEB) June 19, 2015

Hvar, Croatia’s premier island, just made the top of the Huffington Post’s list featuring Europe’s best island escapes. Described by the influential Huff Post as a mix of “home to old towns, faded white stone buildings, teal blue harbors, lavender fields and chic sunset bars,” Hvar definitely promises the perfect escape for this summer. Select Croatia (http://selectcroatia.com), a boutique travel company, is a one-stop-shop for a memorable trip to Croatia offering a wide selection of travel services, including exclusive tours and activities in the Dalmatian hotspot of Hvar.

Hvar is located in the Adriatic Sea, off the Dalmatian Coast, between the islands of Brač, Vis and Korčula, and is easily reached from Split by ferry or catamaran. Travelers, whether wishing to plan an entire vacation on the island or simply to include it in their itinerary, can rely on Select Croatia’s expertise and new unique tours to get the most out of this Dalmatian island and surroundings:

Discover Hvar: Off-Road Tour: this full-day tour is the perfect option for those who have just one day to explore Hvar.
Sailing Around the Magical Island of Vis: departing from Hvar, this full-day sailboat excursion will cover the most scenic views of the Adriatic seacoast.
Evening Wine Tasting in Hvar: the guided tour takes place in the picturesque Hvar countryside and includes traditional wine tastings at two celebrated wineries.

“Thanks to the Mediterranean climate, the best time to visit Hvar is between June and August, but also the fall and spring shoulder season are good times to plan a trip as the island is less crowded,” says Maja Gudelj, Director of Croatia and Mediterranean Yacht Charters. “Hvar is one of Europe’s best island escapes probably because it offers everything you can ask for on a vacation: culture and tradition, chic and vibrant nightlife, pristine beaches, boat excursions, and gourmet food and wine.”

The entire portfolio of Hvar guided tours can be found on the company website. For more information about Select Croatia travel products, visit selectcroatia.com or send an e-mail at croatia(at)selectitaly(dot)com.
