Perfect island hopping in Dalmatia ❤

We already want to go back ☺️

In reality, there is no historical debate regarding Marco Polo. In Croatia they invented this "fairy tale" to make Korcula more attractive for foreign tourists, it is about the embezzlement of Italian cultural heritage. Marco Polo was Italian, although at the time Italy as we know it now did not exist yet (born in Venice to a rich family of Venetian merchants in 1254). In addition, both he and his family are mentioned in some Venetian treatises of the time. Moreover, the house that in Korcula is considered "his birthplace" was built about 200 years after his death .... That said, Korcula remains a wonderful town and the island is truly one of the most beautiful in Croatia. My family and I went there last month and it is a destination that we recommend.

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Interesting, we did hear something about this debate. Crazy how history gets a little re written along the way sometimes 😅 you’re absolutely right though it is a wonderful little town and so beautiful!

[@elixirboy1]

Really love Croatia and your high quality video😊

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Thank you so much. We loved Croatia so much and definitely hope to travel to more places in Croatia in future, so much beauty 🤩

[@semsemeini7905]

We were told by a Croatian soldier Korkula is the nicest island. We are going in June. Very helpful. Thank you. Is the ocean walm> In Brac and Hvar it was cold!!!!

[@TideKnotTravellers]

We have heard it is one of the best and our experience certainly lived up to this. We visited in October and the water was lovely ☺️

[@SorgiStories]

ROAD TRIP! Again, you are breaking blue sky & sea records. What an amazing set of peninsulas with Old Town & the beach! Panorama is right…a lot bigger than the stairs. Just. Wow.

[@TideKnotTravellers]

These blue skies are about to be switched to a shade of London grey! 😂

[@SorgiStories]

@@TideKnotTravellers All the sads. 😢

[@mirjanasvideocro551]

Beautiful Korcula, thanks fro sharing my friend...like..Greetings from Croatia!

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Thank you for watching! It's really nice to hear someone from Croatia likes our Croatian videos ☺

[@lindae5937]

What super content! Beautiful old town. Bell tower looked a bit scary, steep high & clostrophobic for me & oh those bells! 🤣but those views! Wow! You chose a really super spot for lunch too! Pleased for you but Olives still haven’t appealed to my palette!!! That beach....perfect end to a perfect day! FAB! Great drone shots as always. Thankyou for sharing. I Thoroughly enjoyed it all. Happy Christmas! 🎄

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Thanks for watching and Merry Christmas!

[@danbet7710]

Weather seemed good for October especially brave to go to the beach

[@TideKnotTravellers]

It wasn't quite the scorching beach weather you'd get in summer but a lovely comfortable beach temperature that was just about warm enough until the sun set then it was chilly instantly!

[@TheRchy]

You are such an elegant couple. Came across your video as we are traveling to Drubvonik in July. Loved your vlog on the old town. Wish you safe travels

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@brithomas.]

I cant help but smile watching this, you both are so much fun. This vlog is stunning 😍

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Thank you, we’re so pleased to hear we made you smile 😊

Merry Christmas ! 🎄

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Thank you and Merry Christmas to you too!

[@aniruddhatraveler]

Merry Christmas my friend.. C u soon

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Merry Christmas to you too ☺️

[@TheMapPinners]

What a fun road trip!! The drive there and the island itself looks absolutely gorgeous! Nice that you can just show up and get tickets there. Makes for an easy and fun day trip ☺️ WOW! We’ll definitely keep this old town in mind because we’d love to explore Croatia as soon as we can get over to Europe! ♥️ the panoramic views from the bell tower was especially beautiful! Worth the defining bell ringing still 😂

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Hope you guys get to visit soon, Croatia is a cool little country. It was so funny when that bell first went off up there! 😂

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Nice that you could fit in a day-trip to an island! The old town really does look a lot like Dubrovnik. It’s interesting to see where Marco Polo lived as well. May we all become as famous as Marco! 😂

[@TideKnotTravellers]

At this point we’ll just be happy to get travelling again like Marco! 😂

[@romanandfizah]

We are back again! Love the content and the view is amazing. Hope you had a blessed Christmas 🎄 Happy holiday from us guys

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Thank you. Hope you both had a lovely Christmas too!

[@TravelInteresante]

First and foremost, I love Marco Polo, read his diary in college and loved it. Love road trips! the scenery from the tower is amazing, worth the climb! The bell must be so loud from there, woof. Your lunch view is amazing, i think its a powder juice (tang I believe?). I didn't know that it wasn't easy to find a sandy beach in Croatia. Beautiful shots guys, glad you enjoyed the beach!

[@TideKnotTravellers]

We loved almost everything about Croatia, except that most of the beaches are pebbly, but there are a few beautiful sandy ones if you know where to look ☺

[@TheAverageTourist]

I love when cities are really helpful for tourists. "Oh they are moving" 😂 Those staircases were so steep an narrow - but a great view at the top. My hubby would not be able to make it with his knee so I'd have to do it for both of us. Too funny about the olives - I love olives and those pizzas looked really tasty. Everywhere you look there the scenery is so beautiful! Love all the sea views. Croatia is definitely on my future list of places I want to go.

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Craig is always so laid back and busy filming whilst I’m running ahead apologising for being late, in this case to all the drivers😂

[@Explorcation]

Hey guys, we are happy to explore another island with you. The view from the bell tower was amazing..and I liked that you can be up there when the bell actually rings! 🫒 Welcome to adulthood Craig 😆 it is kind of weird how they take a while to grow on so many people. Ouch! That reef must have been sharp 😬 thank goodness for the ice 🍨 nearby!

[@TideKnotTravellers]

The bell tower ringing was quite a shock 😂 who knew a 15th century bell tower would ring so often!

[@Explorcation]

@@TideKnotTravellers 🔔😆 there is a short holiday movie called Christmas Claymation that we watch every year and this year it reminded me this episode because of the bell ringing. I hope you guys had a wonderful Christmas!

[@johnbrenttravel]

Great video guys! The olive thing actually does work. I couldn't stand olives then in Spain I was like I need to like olives. Now I can eat the green ones like crisps. Have a great Christmas.

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Thank you 😊 Perseverance pays!🫒

[@gbrdhvndi]

Such a beautiful weather ☀️ Whan was this filmed? Happy Christmas! 🎄

[@TideKnotTravellers]

It was filmed in October so would possibly be a bit colder by now. Merry Christmas to you too! 🎅🏼🎄

[@jorged4763]

Hi great video!. Did you spend the night in the island ?

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Thank you. No we just drove a hire car from Dubrovnik in the morning and back again that evening.

[@Sunsets_LoFi]

From my side I would like to say massive thanks to you for all videos made during this year)) I wish you all the best in upcoming 2022. Merry Christmas and happy New year!! I do hope your will make more and more incredible content))) ⛄ 🌲 🎆

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Thank you so much 😊 We wish a very Merry Christmas to you too! We have lots more exciting things coming up and can’t wait to share it all here 🤩

[@NaszePodrozeEduPl]

Great video. We love Croatia and Korcula. It's an amazing island to see and to do 🙂😍 Regards from Poland!

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Thank you. It’s so beautiful and relaxing 😌

[@spykesmc1502]

The little tower behind the little church at ¨Marco polo's house¨ (13:59) was the actual part of his house , and the ruin attached to it is the main house itself , that's currently in the renovation status. Little tower is accessible for tourists and it's 25hrk to enter and have a view also :) Thank you for this wonderfull video and i wish you safe trips!

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Thank you so much! We loved this day trip to Korcula, such an interesting and peaceful little island ☺ Thank you for the extra info too!

[@Ammani143]

Did you just do a day trip to Korcula from Dubrovnik? Did you have enough time to see Korcula and get back to Dubrovnik?

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Yes we just drove over to the ferry in the morning from Dubrovnik and spent the day there and took an evening ferry back. It’s very relaxed and you just buy your ticket like we did here.

[@Ammani143]

@@TideKnotTravellers Thank you for your reply. Do you think i can do this day trip without a car? or is it better to have a car?

[@PekiPVP]

Come to Novi Sad

[@omundoenossoentertainment]

🍹

[@Kivas_Fajo]

purr-sheanuh is more like it for pržina beach...pržina means sand btw.

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Oh wow, we'd have never known that from reading it 😅 makes sense that it means sand though, thank you 😊

[@na-dk9vm]

Are there any islands in Croatia similar to the Greek isles ??

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Not quite like Greece but Croatia has it’s own very individual charm and islands for relaxation and beauty in a different way to the Greek Islands.

[@ivansalic4594]

Why would Croatian islands look like Greek isle?

[@na-dk9vm]

@@ivansalic4594 no I meant like quiet little islands that look really nice and aren't too touristy, you know??

[@johnsain]

Great video but.....pronouncing 'Korcula' wrong.....

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Thank you, it’s always tricky pronouncing so many foreign place names 🤪

[@panoramic6011]

Brac and Hvar island are 100 times ahead of Korcula.. My opinion Korcula isnt that nice apart from old town but the rest of the towns on Korcula have nothing

[@TideKnotTravellers]

We hope to visit those next time we’re there!
