About this tour
This session takes the short ferry crossing from Zadar's harbour to the island of Ugljan, the closest of the nearby islands. You see the old town from the water as we leave, the open sea and other islands mid-crossing, and then Ugljan's small harbour and olive groves as we arrive. It is a practical, live look at island-hopping from Zadar rather than a description of it.
We start at the dock with a sound check, then move through the crossing stop by stop, taking questions about timetables and the other islands as we go. A short list of names and times follows afterwards.
It suits anyone deciding whether a day on the islands fits their visit. It also suits an early booking, since the morning crossings tend to be the quietest.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide
- Questions to your guide all the way
- A short list of places to visit later
Not included
- Internet connection
- Travel to the city
Itinerary

The guide joins the video call, checks the picture and sound with you, and gives you a quick sense of Zadar before heading out.

Zadar's harbour 21 min
The camera looks back at Zadar's old town from the ferry dock as we board, and I explain why Ugljan is the closest of the nearby islands.

On the water 21 min
Mid-crossing, I turn the phone toward the open water and point out the other islands visible from the deck.

-
Your questions 14 min
Time to ask anything about Zadar: prices, safety, food, or whatever you are curious about.

A short list to keep 6 min
Before you go, the guide sums up with a few things worth remembering: a dish to try: Crni rižot (black risotto) and Poluotok, worth a slower look.
Good to know

- The session is not recorded, and recording it yourself is not allowed. Feel free to take your own notes.
- Ask questions any time, out loud or in the chat. The guide will pause to answer.
- Sessions run in small groups, up to 8 people, so there is room for everyone to ask something.
Questions about this tour
What will the session cover?

What happens if my connection drops?
Rejoin with the same link within a few minutes and the guide will catch you up on anything you missed.
Can I ask the guide questions during the session, or is it a fixed script?

How it works
