I had just visited some family from Cres and we took the ferry to Rijeka and some other islands, but Rijeka is absolutely heaven on earth. Everything about Croatia is, but Rijeka alone is like a dream come true. The things I’d do to become a permanent citizen 😭

[@lordhumungus1386]

I've never seen more calmly and more pleasant to hear and watch youtubers then you two..I hope you will come back again to Rijeka,you are welcome!

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Thanks for the kind comment! We really appreciate it!

[@TideKnotTravellers]

The dancing at the end is beautiful 😍

[@ButterCupMMXXIII]

Lovely, thank you so much!😊🍹🍸😎

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Glad it was helpful! Kind regards!

[@TravelInteresante]

Rijeka is definitely not a spoy we were thinking of visiting when we finally make it to Croatia but the port area looks so beautiful and the market seems like such a local gem! That is such an amazing beach also... reminds us of one of the ones we went to near Kas in Turkey... that whole area has such an amazing coastline!

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Croatia really does have some beautiful water. Some of the bluest water in the world.

[@BeingBedingfield]

This city seems right up our alley…it looks like it’s a bit more affordable and less touristy? How amazing are the views from all the restaurants you are at, I especially like the cafe at the castle 🤩 you guys are so brave walking through the world war tunnel 🙈 I think I like the first beach better, just because of the colour of the water 😅💙 As Kendra was deciding to get in the water, I was like “Go Kendra, Go” 🤗 so glad you decided to get in 💪

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Lol, yes I'm glad I got in too. It was lovely albeit a little chilly!

[@colombianman1969]

Wonderful videos as always. Thank you very much for sharing. A big hug from Colombia.

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Aww, thanks Mauro! We're going to Central America next! Belize first the Guatemala, El Savaldor, etc, and I look forward to really using my Spanish again. We will eventually get to Colombia so we would love your tips on what to see when there. We can't wait to explore a new part of the world!

Hey thanks for the video! I’m in Rijeka and this really helped :)

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Awesome! Glad it was helpful! Enjoy!

[@krisjustin3884]

This is a very well presented video with interesting information and attractive footage. South Central Europe is an amazing place with other nice cities worth visiting as well. Hope you had a look at Ljubljana in Slovenia just further north over the Dinaric Alps. Great job!

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Yes we made it Ljubljana as well and loved it! Thanks so much for your comment!

[@TheAverageTourist]

Looks like an amazing place to visit! You found some beautiful attractions like the tunnels, the beaches, and despite the rain it was still lovely. The water did look chilly. You also found some great food along the way. I'd love to go to the bakery and market for some inexpensive food options.

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Yes Rijeka has a wide variety of food options from cheap to expensive. Great views as well!

[@JmKrokY]

@Darko Ulmer Rain is awesome

[@SapphireBlueTravelExplores]

Such a great video guys and so many great ideas. I did not know much about Rika, but now I have wonderful temptations to put it on the list.

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Many thanks! We were really surprised as well by how much Rijeka has to offer. We're glad we made a stop here.

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Loved your lunch views on the first day although we are big fans of a bakery lunch to save time and money whilst exploring, your bakery lunches sounded great. Kendra that cocktail sounds just like one I ordered a few days ago, I shuddered with every sip! 😅 well done for getting into the water, cold water is so good for the body!

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Yes, we're really getting better in the water. So proud of us!

[@traveldiarieswithadi496]

wow. Guys, so wonderderful to watch your vlog after a gap, loved the way you have captured this beautiful city, frankly I have not heard much about it but really impressed to see this through your vlog. So well captured and presented. Really impressed to see the tunnel

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Thanks Adi! Yes, the tunnel is so unique. It was very interesting to see for sure!

[@matis1514]

Thanks! Got some good Tips.

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Great to hear! Enjoy Rijeka!

[@TheGeorgia1Rose]

I’m going to Rijeka in July so this video has been so so helpful, thank you!! I’m going on a weekend, would you recommend that I have to book any restaurants or would you say that they’re quite easy to get into?😊

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Glad to hear it was helpful! We were there in September and didn't have any trouble finding a table anywhere. So, I think you will be fine without reservations.

[@mariojsworld]

Great travel video from Rijeka.

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Many thanks! 🙏🏾

[@yoribe]

I'm thinking of going to Zagreb and Rijeka with a day trip to Opatija around April this year. I'd also thinking of stopping by Pula and then ending my trip in Trieste, Italy. Your calm delivery was pleasant to listen to and informative at the same time.

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Great to hear James! Glad you enjoyed the video! Sounds like a great trip. Enjoy it!

[@Explorcation]

We can sure appreciate visiting a city that isn't as touristy. For a less touristy city it sure has plenty to do. I would definitely want to eat at Molo Longo for that view! Did you say you had monkfish there? That view from the castle was also quite nice 😍 I am glad at least one of your cocktails was good, I can't stand drinks that taste like medicine 😝

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Yes, it was my first time having monkfish. It was good though.

[@Explorcation]

@@LucasWorldTravel glad to hear it! We can sometimes find monkfish at the fresh markets here in Florida. We have enjoyed in when we have been able to try it too.

[@xeon2509]

Wish you went to yesterdays football game. Amazing atmosphere. Greetings from Croatia :)

A football game sounds amazing! Definitely next time!

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Awesome! Dubrovnik was our favorite in Croatia so you're going to love it! Our Dubrovnik video should be out in 5 weeks so well before your trip.

[@GiorgioBatina]

nearby (10min drive) you have Opatija/Abazzia city and riviera on west and Crikvenica on east. An hour ride Mt Učka (Monte magiorre) on Istria peninsula and Gorski kotar northern area. Try it if you have time

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Thanks for the tips!

[@knHebrew]

Kendra your clothes are beautiful. Where do you shop?

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Wow thanks! I don’t shop anywhere special. At least one of the shirts is from TJ Max. The rest I don’t remember.

[@knHebrew]

Well I love the thing you put over your swim suit. That was adorable.@@LucasWorldTravel

[@naivedyamohanty]

Can we get the same local bus transport to Plitvice National Park ?

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Not from Rijeka. I think only Zagreb and Zadar have bus lines to Plitvice.

[@christhewhiz2061]

anybody pick up on the south park real estate episode background music?
