ROVINJ TRAVEL GUIDE | 10 things to do in Rovinj, Croatia on a Day Trip from Pula

[@zerotonine807]

I go there often in summer....its a magnet and so beautiful in summer.

[@samuelandaudrey]

That is cool to hear. Would love to visit that time of year!

[@tinyplanet_360]

When in Croatia the fresh chocolate croissants from konzum shops are the best!

[@samuelandaudrey]

Thanks for the tip Calum! Hope to try those next time :)

[@tinyplanet_360]

@@samuelandaudrey the bakery section of konzums honestly had the best ever chocolate croissants. We hope to return to Zadar this April as it was our first ever trip to Croatia. I'm disappointed you didn't climb all the steps in the rovinj bell tower. My wife was upset going up there 😂.

Thank you! We'll also be visiting Italy later on :)

[@Paladine777]

That's because it's an Italian town occupied by Croatians.

My wife and I did this boat trip, and it was fantastic, Pula is an amazing place and Rovinj is stunning , I found Croatia very reasonable for food drinks and travel, we shall be returning again soon , up there as the best holiday i've had

Thanks Gisele! We ended up going on foot. It wasn't a long walk from what I remember.

[@samuelandaudrey]

Thanks!

[@misspearlpearl7530]

I read articles that it is the best place for Americans to retire? Looks beautiful.

[@samuelandaudrey]

Ah, that is interesting. To be honest I can totally see why. Beautiful setting, not crowded, chill pace of life, lovely weather, great food.

[@MrCROBosanceros]

Croats are friendliest nation toward Americans or definitely one of the friendliest! Despite being run (occupied) by communists,it was Americans who built nuclear power plant back in 1970's. It was built as a joint venture by Slovenia and Croatia. At that time,American engineers and their families lived in my neighbourhood in Zagreb.

[@terirozalie4143]

The place where you had coffee and cake was actually Caffé Al Ponto. :) Hotel Adriatic is a couple meters further, across the main square :)

[@samuelandaudrey]

Oh, thanks for the correction Tereza.

[@danad8716]

As always, another excellent video! I have been following you for some time now and am curious about two things. Do you ever get home sick? And do you two ever get tired of being together 24/7? In other words, do you ever find that you need some "me time"?

[@samuelandaudrey]

Thank you very much! We miss family and having a base at times. Not a specific place in Canada but being on the road can really tire you out. Oh my gosh, being on the road 24/7 we kind of have a masterclass of knowledge to annoy one another. We drive each other nuts at times but we're pretty good about giving each other space when we need that time.

[@TheFluffiesChannel]

And you had Gelato!! You guys might ending up making a top 10 best ice creams you had in 2017! 🍦

[@samuelandaudrey]

Hehehe...that sounds like a good idea!

I'm curious about how the street cheese tastes.

[@samuelandaudrey]

Ah, we should have tried those! :(

[@tomasbrun8242]

Thanks for a great channel guys. I enjoy watching you visiting various places and see what cities I can visit myself (I use a wheelchair). Some places are good, some don't, it's good to know. Rovinj looks like a not so good wheelchair-place, lol. Thinking of all the cobblestone and stairs. :) I have a question: Your videos are of very good quality, sharp, good colors, not shaky. What equipment do you use? GoPro with gimbal? Osmo?

[@samuelandaudrey]

Thank you very much! I feel the waterfront area would be an okay place but unfortunately the steep inclines of the old town wouldn't be. We're now using a Panasonic GH5 and the built in image stabilization is really good. Sometimes we have to adjust shakes a bit during editing on Premiere and Final Cut Pro. I've seen some really lovely footage from the gopro and phone + gimbal combos. We don't use one but it would be a great starter kit for making videos.

[@ChowPowPow]

I enjoy your explanations - pointing out the random cats 🐈 🐱 🤷🏻‍♀️😅

[@samuelandaudrey]

Thank you! We're always on the lookout for cats :)

[@samuelandaudrey]

Ah, that is cool! I hope we can make a really thorough street food guide in BA when we visit next fall :)

[@esmediamond]

I plan on going to Croatia. I’m thinking maybe I should base myself at the cheapest area in Istria to check out nearby amazing cities. What place in Istria was cheapest in lodging?

[@heyhey5691]

You guys been traveling for quite a long time already, but are the moments that you missed your hometown?

[@samuelandaudrey]

Yeah, when we've been on the road we really do miss family. Not so much our hometowns because I haven't lived there since almost 20 years ago (Sam speaking) and Audrey moved around quite a bit. So we miss family and friends not so much a particular place.

[@luiwithlove]

Hi,, nice video.. may i know if i download music from dizaro is it have a copyright?

[@samuelandaudrey]

Thanks! You can use it if you give credit like we did. You can find his music on SoundCloud.

[@RealSpaceHobo]

Coming into the movie with Aud gripping the camera firmly as if to keep it away from Sam who was panting and puffing in his trademark outfit, trying to keep pace I knew this was gonna be future vintage - pure gold guys - and Rovinj looks like a gem in the rough....good catch.....was wondering, have you noticed any significant price drop, since it is off season, Croatia in general?....:-)

[@samuelandaudrey]

Hahaha...future vintage. Oh my, we watched an older video of ours from a few years ago and it certainly felt vintage ;)

[@daryldeal]

Nice travel video! I have a question, do buses typically run out of seats and you have to book in advance in Croatia? We are planning to go from Zagreb to Rovinj and then Rovinj to Pula. Can we just buy our tickets on the day? We are travelling in June. Also which should be given more time spent seeing, Pula or Rovinj? Thanks! 😀😀👍👍

[@simon2625]

daryldeal what did you like better? We thought that Rovinj and Porec were much nicer than pula?

[@carlosbonetto4229]

Hola Samuel y Audrey...Que es preferible, alojarse en Rovinj o en Pula?

Hola Carlos! Nos gustaron los dos. Pula tiene más que hacer, pero Rovinj está más tranquilo.

[@vgshwk]

I love the cobblestone streets and the views are nice but I think shopping I would hate. I am used to taking at the most 20 minutes to shop for 5 items there it looks like it would take hours.

[@vgshwk]

Samuel and Audrey - Travel and Food Videos don’t get me wrong I am sure I would love it there not sure I would want to give up the ease of 24 hours shopping.

[@cat-tx5ht]

How tall is Audrey?

She is 5'7.

[@gerdpapenburg7050]

You should have gone to Mali Lošinj. When I was there in 1978 a new pope was elected. My Yougoslavian friend asked about the name; some Italians answered "non capito niente" (I don't understand); he told me that the new pope is named "Don Capito der Neunte".

[@SebastianFeuster]

Stella di Mare? Oh no. A typical tourist trap and nearly the badest Restaurant in Town. Next time better take a look @ Tripadvisor... :)

[@samuelandaudrey]

Thanks! Where would you recommend?

[@anahata2009]

Puntalina and Mali Raj are the only places worth eating in town (Owners of Puntalina opened another place, too, but the name escapes me at the moment). The rest are tourist traps with very mediocre if not downright bad food. Unless you want just pizza, then Da Sergio is also good. Up the hill out of town is Maslina, which is decent food at a good price, with a very warm staff. The only non-industrial gelato in town is at "B 052" on ulica carera, with some unique flavors. No video the purports to show Rovinj is complete without a bike trip from the center of town along the coastal path, which goes for miles on one of the most beautiful stretches of coast in Europe--with little bars to stop for food and drink along the way. You should return in warmer weather and rent bikes for that. Nice video, but would have appreciated a less misleading title---this is not really a "10 things to do" video.

[@anamariacameron400]

Looks like the towns of Cinque Terre

[@davidetoffoletto9981]

This place is clearly Italy! Why is It in Croatia? Istria is closed by the Alps inside Italy and architecture is Venetian, not Slavic
