What works well

  • Zero vehicular logistics or parking stress on the pedestrianized historic island.
  • Strategic routing skirts peak midday cruise and day-tripper bottlenecks.
  • Dining selections prioritize authentic Dalmatian cooking over tourist-facing Riva concessions.

What we would improve

  • The $2000 ceiling is far above normal daily spending capacity in Trogir without private boat charters.
  • Climbing the Cathedral bell tower involves steep, narrow stairs that require sure footing.
