Bonjour,
Dans un séjour on doit faire des choix
j'ai zappé Les iles Kornati pour faire Hvar et Korcula.
Est il interessant de faire et Hvar et Korcula ou quand on en a fait une. l'autre peut être mise à l'écart . et alors laquelle garder.
Ou faire les Kornati et l'une des 2 autres.
Merci de vos lumières
En Juin il n'y a pas de départs quotidiens pour les Kornati, donc il faut voir s'il y a un départ pour la période souhaitée et d'où vous voulez partir, parce que tous les tours ne sont pas bons, ni complets ou satisfaisants. Après les Kornati n'ont rien à voir avec les deux autres, qui sont très ressemblantes dans l'ensemble. Vous avez aussi Mljet qu'on associe facilement avec Korcula.
Si vous avez des questions...
Voici mon itinéraire
Qu'en pensez vous
Effectivement si en Juin les iles Kornati ne sont pas possibles le problème est réglé
J'ai effectivement des doutes de faire Hvar et Korcula qui doivent être similaire si oui laquelle préférer.
Vous vous pensez Mjet et Korcula

Bonjour,
Merci pour le conseil
A Mjet on ne passe pas la voiture j'ai cru lire.
Comment se déplace t'on dans l'ile peut t'on y trouver des chambres
Merci
Ne passer qu'une nuit à Hvar et une nuit à Korcula ne me semble pas bon du tout sachant que faire la route de Hvar, prendre le ferry pour gagner Drvnik, faire la route jusque Orebic, prendre le ferry et gagner Korcula, ça va te prendre au moins 4 heures ! A mon sens, tu devrais n'en faire qu'une. Et même si j'ai trouvé la ville de Korcula très belle, j'ai été un peu déçu par l'île dans son ensemble. Par contre, comme je le décris sur mon blog, j'ai tout adoré sur Hvar, surtout qu'au mois de juin, il n'y aura pas grand'monde (en tout cas, moins qu'en août lors de mon passage)... Sur mon blog, tu retrouveras également mon itinéraire...
Autre conseil pour gagner du temps. Après ta visite du parc de Plitvice, je te conseille d'enchaîner de suite la route vers l'étape suivante. En fait, la visite de ce parc ne te prendra pas toute la journée, surtout si tu l'attaques de bon matin. J'avais commencé la visite à 8 h et à 15 h, j'étais déjà sorti en ayant tout vu. Et j'ai fait cette visite avec mes deux filles de 2 et 5 ans !!!
Bonjour,
Oui effectivement ta réponse est pertinente.
De Hvar nous prendons le Ferry de 8h15 à Sirucaj et irons chercher le Ferry de Orebic prendre des billets pietons juste pour aller visiter le village de Korcula.
8h15 +4h00 permet de prendre le Ferry de 13h30 et au retour de prendre le Ferry de 16h00 retour Orebic
Qu'en penses tu ?
Nous avons aussi l'envie de faire Mljet. Sinon nous ferons Lopud .
Qu'en a Plitvice nous avons déjà réservés 2 nuits sur place.
Pour Orebic-Korkula, prendre garde si on passe comme piéton, apparemment, on n'arrive pas au centre ville forcément, sauf s'il y a un autre embarcadère à Orebic que nous n'avons pas vu en arrivant.
Je te mets la copie d'un morceau de mon CR pour que tu voies comment cela s'est déroulé pour nous... 😉
"Arrêt à Neum dans l'idée de voir la péninsule de Pelvejac ce jour et de pouvoir arriver à Mostar demain matin assez tôt avant les bus notamment.
Nous repartons, refranchissons la frontière, à la vue des passeports suisses, nous passons directement.
Nous allons jusqu'à l'embranchement avec la péninsule de Pelvesac où nous arrivons vers 9 h 30.
Nous roulons directement jusqu'à Orebic, 1 h 15 de route, il n'y a quasiment personne...
Nous nous garons gratuitement env. 200 m. avant l'embarcadère pour Korcula.
Je vais prendre les billets comme piétons (à gauche de l'embarcadère), 13 kunas par personne, le prochain bateau est à 11 h 30 (puis 13 h).
Il est 11 h, petit café au port, 2 cafés = 12 kunas.
Le bateau partira vers 11 h 40, à midi, nous sommes à Domince. Il ne s'arrête pas au centre de Korkula. Il y a des taxis, mais nous partons à pied, pensant que la distance était assez courte. Certainement que nous aurions dû passer à droite derrière l'hôtel Bon Repos et suivre la mer, mais on se trompe et on suit la route des voitures, pas une brillante idée du tout, 1 h pour arriver au centre ville... et il fait chaud...
13 h 10, repas au Restaurant Doris, 1 escalope de veau, frites, 1 côtelette de porc, frites, 1 salade mixte, 1 coca light, 1 eau minérale, 2 cafés = 199 kunas.
Puis, nous visitons le centre ville et faisons le tour des murailles, très joli, très calme par rapport à Dubrovnik...
Ensuite, à 15 h, ne désirant pas retourner au port comme ce matin, j'entre dans une agence, Korkyra, qui organise toutes sortes de transports, séjours, garde de bagages, etc. Ils me disent qu'on peut avoir un bateau en contrebas pour 5 euros par personne à 15 h 30 pour le centre d'Orebic. Ouf...
Agence = www.korkyra.info
A 15 h 30, nous nous retrouvons dans un bateau pour piétons uniquement avec un groupe de touristes qui se rendaient dans un hôtel à côté d'Orebic, pourparlers avec l'agence, le conducteur du bateau, bref, on pose les touristes d'abord et il nous pose ensuite au centre d'Orebic à 15 h 45.
Nous faisons un petit tour sur le quai à pied et repartons avec la voiture vers 16 h 25. Il n'y a quasiment personne.
Nous nous arrêterons encore en route 20 minutes à Ston pour voir le centre ville, mais nous ne monterons pas sur la muraille, paraît-il la plus grande d'Europe, sinon pour info 30 kunas pour les adultes et 10 pour les enfants. De loin, la muraille semble plus difficile à parcourir que celle de Dubrovnik, plus étroite et moins sécurisée, mais la vue d'ensemble est spectaculaire."
Je suis aussi en train d'organiser mon séjour en Croatie et j'aimerais visiter Korkula et Hvar. Quelle est la compagnie qui transporte ta voiture et quelle sont les prix obtenus?

Bonjour,
Je suis à la recherche d’une destination neige en Europe, accessible en voiture en partant de Lille, pas trop cher. Le tout en famille avec deux enfants de 4 et presque 9 ans. On ne skie pas, on veut retrouver l’ambiance noël, pouvoir faire de petites balades, faire de la luge au pied de la porte de la location.
Nous avions pensé à la Slovaquie (Tatras - mais 15h00 de route…) ou à la République Tchèque (plus proche - Mont de Jizera - Korenov). On cherche aussi de la visite (châteaux, monuments…) et cette ambiance de noêl.
Est-ce que vous pensez que la République Tchèque pourrait nous convenir sur une semaine ?
Merci,
Hi there, the island of Limnos (or Lemnos) looks like a great spot for a September trip: not too many tourists at that time, plenty of hiking opportunities, beaches, villages, etc. That said, guidebooks mention an airbase on the island, with some sources saying there are more or less frequent aircraft flyovers. For those who’ve been there—how’s the situation with this? Lots of air traffic or noise issues?
Thanks in advance
I'm currently planning a trip to Cyprus for late October. I have a few questions:
- I plan to visit Nicosia, Paphos, and Ayia Napa. What do you recommend in Ayia Napa?
- Is it easy to get around by bus from one city to another? Or do you have any private drivers to recommend?
- Do you have any hotels to recommend?
Any tips or advice is welcome!
Thanks in advance
Hi! I'm torn between these two destinations. If we go to Crete, we'll probably head to the Chania region and the south, which seems wilder. With 10 days and a car, it should work out. If we choose Sardinia, we haven't figured out the exact area yet. We love hiking, swimming, and eating well. We have 10 days at the end of September and prefer to avoid crowds this year. In May, we went to Menorca and really enjoyed it—great hikes, beautiful beaches, good food, and not too many cars.
Hi,
I'm looking for a private transfer from Istanbul Airport to the historic center of Sirkeci. Does anyone know a company? I've found a few:
GetYourGuide,
Istanbultour24.fr (more interesting because they offer round-trip transfers at a lower price).
If you've used any of these services, I'd love to hear your feedback.
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
I'm looking for info on the Pristina–Skopje bus route.
Can you leave from the main bus station in Pristina?
I’ve also heard about a bus station near the theater...
If anyone has details, I’d love to hear them—thanks!!!!
We want to book our tickets to visit the Acropolis site and the associated museum. For these reservations, we need to specify entry time slots.
For the Acropolis alone: the first slot is at 8:30 AM.
For the museum: 10 AM? 11 AM?
We like to wander around, so here’s our question: if we haven’t finished exploring the site after 1.5 hours, is it possible to go back in after leaving the museum?
We’ll be buying tickets from the official websites—audio guides are mentioned. Any feedback on those? On sites like Get Your Guide, the prices are much higher with the audio guide included, but does that mean better quality?
Hello,
We're heading to Istanbul from October 7th to 12th. I’d love to do a dinner cruise on the Bosphorus on a more intimate boat (no show) with a private table and alcohol (wine, since it’s a birthday dinner). Could anyone recommend a reliable company (I’m not looking for a private yacht either) that organizes this kind of evening?
Thanks in advance,
Hi, I’d like to buy a ticket to go to Terezín from Prague using the Pid Litacka app, but I don’t know which zone to get the ticket for. Thanks for your help! 😊
Hi there,
After booking an Airbnb last January for this summer’s vacation in Sarajevo... My "host" canceled our reservation without any reason—this has never happened to me before.
Of course, now it’s impossible to find a place to stay at a "normal" price in Sarajevo with parking...
So we’re falling back on the capital of the Republika Srpska, Banja Luka, which had already crossed my mind before I booked Sarajevo.
I already have quite a few ideas in mind, without having dug too deep into the region yet.
But if anyone has already been there and has suggestions? Even for restaurants—I’m all ears!
And even if it’s not right next door, I’m planning to spend a day in Sarajevo!
Hi, I’m going to Turkey for 3 weeks. I’ve heard that you can’t book through Booking.com once you’re there and that everything has to be reserved in advance. Is it true that Booking.com doesn’t work in Turkey? Thanks to anyone who’s already been or is there—if it’s true, how do you handle bookings?
I’d love to get your opinions and advice on a destination.
It’s actually for my 19-year-old son who wants to go to Greece with his cousin, who’s the same age.
They’re looking at leaving on October 24th for 7 to 10 days.
For their trip, they want gorgeous beaches where they can swim, beautiful typical villages and historic cities, stunning landscapes, but also lively spots for their nights out. In short, they’re not just going there to laze around—they want to make the most of it...
But here’s the thing: will the weather be too iffy at that time, especially for swimming?
Also, would Crete be the best choice for what they’re looking for?
Then, a travel agent suggested Tenerife instead because of the weather at that time of year—he said the climate there is the same all year round. But will they find landscapes and beaches as beautiful as in Crete?
Hello!
I’m planning a trip to Greece in May or June 2027. We’re independent travelers.
We’ll rent a car after our stay in Athens and book accommodations through Booking or similar sites.
What do you think of this itinerary? We’re taking our time (beach and swimming if the weather allows in May—is the water too cold?)
Athens, 3 days
Nafplio, 3 days (Mycenae, Epidaurus, Archaia)
Mystras, 2 days or Monemvasia, 2 days (Laconia peninsula)?? Dilemma between the two
Return trip from the Peloponnese via the Rio-Antirrio bridge
Nafpaktos, 1 night
Arachova, 2 days (Delphi, Osios Loukas Monastery)
Return to Athens and departure
Is it crowded in May or June for visits to archaeological sites?
Thanks for your suggestions or corrections!
Hi there,
Our first trip to Greece as a couple. We're planning to spend 7 days in Greece from August 30th to September 5th. We'll reserve 2 days for Athens at the end of the trip. For the remaining 5 days, we want to visit an island—any recommendations? Thanks for your tips and details, we really appreciate it.
Hi,
What tips can you give me for dealing with a car rental scam attempt in Lithuania?
In our case, it’s the Avis-Budget agency in Vilnius trying to scam us.
We rented a car at Vilnius Airport for 2 weeks on July 28, 2019, to return it in Tallinn on August 11.
We brought it back on August 11 at the airport, in perfect condition, and with a full tank at the gas station right by Tallinn Airport.
On the parking lot, the receptionist’s booth was closed. So we had to leave the car in the lot and go to the counter inside the airport. The person at the counter told us their colleague had gone for lunch!
But they refused to come out and do the inspection with us because they were alone at the counter.
They told us we could leave and that everything was fine!!!!
Two days later, we got an email from Avis-Budget with two invoices saying the car was damaged—scratched on both sides—and charging us for a full tank of gas. That’s two bills totaling 800 €!!!! Coincidentally, the deposit was 900 €!
It’s clear this isn’t over!!
Have any of you been through the same nightmare? How did you handle it?
Thanks in advance!
I’m spending 2 weeks in Crete in September and will need a rental car.
I usually go with Europcar, but comparing their offer to what Aegean Rentals has, I see Europcar is charging no less than 400 € more for the same car and similar insurance!
I’d love to hear if others have experience with Aegean Rentals, and if so, whether it was a good one?
Hi,
We’re heading to Greece in early October and will be staying in Kineta, north of the Saronic Gulf, and renting a car.
Is it feasible to visit Acrocorinth, Mycenae, Nafplio, and Epidaurus in a single day?
Thanks for your recommendations!
Hi there!
I’m sharing our itinerary for May/June 2027—23 days. This is our first time in Greece, so we’re starting with the must-see spots. We’re planning another trip later to explore the north, Thessaloniki, Macedonia, and some islands.
- Athens, 4 nights
- Corinth area, 2 nights (Heraion of Perachora, Canal, Acrocorinth)
- Nafplio, 3 nights (Mycenae, Epidaurus, Methana peninsula)
- Gefira, 2 nights (Monemvasia)
- Areopoli, 2 nights (Mani). Maybe add an extra night and stay on the peninsula??? Based on my calculations, the Mani loop is about 100 km—doable in a day, but it’d be a quick trip.
- Sparta or Pikoulianika, 2 nights (Mystras)
- Dimitsana, 2 nights (Lousios Gorge, monasteries)
- Olympia, 2 nights (via Lagkadia?)
- Delphi or Arachova, 3 nights (via the west coast, Galaxidi bridge) (Delphi, Hosios Loukas Monastery)
- And back to Athens.
This is just a rough draft for now. We’re planning to stay in hotels or book through Booking.com. What do you think? Thanks for your feedback and suggestions!
Over the past twenty-five years, I’ve traveled the roads between France and Moldova a good ten times, sometimes via Central Europe, other times via the Balkans.
It was while traveling like this—what I call "hitting the road the slow way"—that I realized something simple: our neighbors' neighbors are very clearly our neighbors too. And that’s not insignificant.
After a break of a few years, I’m planning to hit the road again in September, this time heading to Kosovo, crossing through Bosnia-Herzegovina and Montenegro.
Having gotten a bit older, I’ve no intention of rushing—no need to speed ahead of the music! 😄
I’d rather take my time.
I’m not looking to see everything, but to soak in the atmosphere of the places, always leaving room for the unexpected and for encounters.
I’m especially drawn to culturally immersive, authentic, and welcoming regions: lively villages, backroads, preserved landscapes, markets, local festivals, traditions that are still very much alive... and, why not, a few offbeat, forgotten, or slightly secret spots.
If any of you know Bosnia-Herzegovina, Montenegro, or Kosovo a little, I’d love to hear your suggestions for itineraries, stops, backroads, homestays, village festivals, or local contacts, for example.
Planning to return to Belarus in mid-August, I just realized that since last September, Poland has reopened several border crossing points, and for buses, this means connections like Białystok-Grodno.
Several bus company routes, like on infobus.eu, take between 3 and 4 hours.
Trains from Warsaw to Białystok take about 1.5 to 2 hours.
This has the advantage of allowing comfortable train journeys with minimal time spent on a bus.
Also, the Terespol-Brest border might have shorter queues if you still prefer a Warsaw-Brest bus.
Note that another route to Minsk, if you have a paper Russian or Belarusian visa, is the Kaliningrad-Minsk train. It’s long—around ten or eleven hours—but you can lie down and sleep. An option if you fly into Gdańsk and then take a short bus to Kaliningrad.
There are also Belavia flights from Minsk to Kaliningrad, but they’re expensive. The route is scenic:
In any case, this adds a few more options compared to what’s been available over the last four years.
Hi there.
I’d like to know what the daily budget is for Greece in December. I’ll be landing in Athens and staying there for a week, then heading to some other islands—I don’t have a set itinerary yet. Also, I’ve heard that in December, or early January, the temperature is around 11–16°C. Is that accurate?
Finally, does anyone have a good recommendation for a cheap but clean hotel near the tourist sites? I don’t need a TV or any other extras. Also, is Greece gay-friendly?
I’d like to know the opening hours of physical stores between Germany and Austria, and between Austria and Slovenia, that sell the PAPER STICKER toll vignettes that still exist for 2026—non-digital ones. I don’t think they’re open 24/7, and I can’t find the info anywhere.
Thanks
Hi there,
We’re planning a 3-week trip in late September with our camper van to explore Bulgaria and Romania.
What routes would you recommend, starting from the South?
Is there an option to take a ferry in Italy, and is it worth it?
Thanks for all your tips!😊
Hi there, we’re a young couple and we’d love to go to the Blue Eye (Syri i Kalter) between today (26/06/26) and tomorrow (27/06/26).
Is anyone heading there and could give us a ride? We’re super friendly!
Thanks so much!
We're back. It's still a bit tough to get precise info, so here's a quick trip report!
A good starting point is Shkoder, a really pleasant city. You can easily explore Shkoder itself in a day or two.
Two accessible spots: Valbona and Theth.
In both cases, local travel agencies in Shkoder or online offer round-trip or one-way access packages. Super handy, especially for Valbona.
Valbona and Theth are both very steep! There aren’t many easy hikes for less sporty folks (like me!).
Valbona: The highlight is the amazing 2.5-hour boat ride across Lake Koman. There are day trips from Shkoder, but you’ll only get a short tour of the lake. The best option is to do the full crossing—so spend a night in Valbona (or two if you want to hike in the valley) and return.
Theth is deeply nestled in the mountains. The village at the end of the valley, which is a dead end, has lots of hotels, but they’re pricey. Other hostels are scattered along the mountainside road, but it’s a steep climb down to the village or to the start of the two easy hikes (waterfalls and the Blue Eye). For us, it was a one-hour descent (and ascent!). It’s fine if you have a car; otherwise, keep an eye out for a taxi (cheap) or try hitchhiking—it works really well.
Access from Shkoder to Theth is through an agency. The road is in great condition, and you can also rent a car for 2-3 days in Shkoder. If we did it again, that’s the option we’d choose.
We didn’t do the trek and returned to Shkoder each time. I can’t speak to its difficulty, but we were there in late May, and even experienced hikers had given up because of heavy rain and snow.
Hope this helps! It’s a stunning region you shouldn’t miss.
We’re a Canadian couple, both 77, and we’re already planning our vacation for fall 2027.
Timeframe: mid-September to mid-October... dates are flexible, and we might stay even longer.
Initially, I had planned this itinerary:
Athens (3), Naxos (4), Paros (4), Santorini (4), then a flight to Istanbul (7–10 days!!). This would let us maximize our flights and experience another culture.
That’s a lot of ferries, though... I’ve already cut out Milos.
Our second option would be to stay 2 x 15 days on two different islands, but I’d still keep Istanbul as our next destination... or maybe 30 days on one island that offers the chance to take day trips to other islands where the ferry ride is no more than 2 to 2.5 hours. For example, Naxos to Paros only takes 30 minutes. We could return the same evening or stay overnight.
Naxos seems like the best option!!!
For Istanbul, of course we want to do a day cruise on the Bosphorus and see Hagia Sophia. If we stay 6–7 days, what would be the other main attractions? Are there any points of interest we can reach by local bus?
Hi there!
We bought our tickets to Greece at the end of November 2025, and let’s just say the geopolitical climate has really taken a turn since then with the war started by the United States against Iran. Not to mention all the other conflicts happening around the world 😕... Anyway!
Our flight from Montreal is on May 1st, and I was wondering how things are currently being experienced in Greece.
We were planning to rent a car and had already booked accommodations on three Cyclades islands!!
The oil shortage is also worrying us...
If you could share some insights on this, that would be great!
