“We did the jeep tour to the hidden stone village. Luka picked us up from the hotel and took us on a scenic drive around the coast, we then went off road up to the village. The off road drive was exhilarating and Luka is clearly very experienced in traversing the rough terrain. The views the from the village were absolutely stunning and we were given an abundance of national foods to try. The tour to the village felt very exclusive as Luka explained no other tour operators have access to it! We then visited a museum and were treated to a coffee! Would definitely recommend this trip - Especially…”
