4-Seater Buggy — Self-Guided Adventure in Hvar

About this activity

This buggy experience takes you beyond the main roads of Hvar, through quiet villages, scenic coastal roads and off-the-beaten-path routes with panoramic viewpoints overlooking the Adriatic. It combines light off-road driving with scenic exploration, with plenty of opportunities to stop, take photos and enjoy the landscape.

This is a self-guided experience, not a guided or group tour. You drive the buggy independently, with a suggested route provided for inspiration, but you are free to explore any locations at your own pace.

Each booking includes one buggy for four people with flexible rental duration. Backed by over 10 years of local experience, our vehicles are modern, regularly serviced and carefully maintained to ensure a safe, smooth and reliable ride. Clear instructions are provided so everything is simple, professional and hassle-free from start to finish.

Itinerary

  1. Tvrdava Fortica

    30 min Admission not included

    The Spanish Fort overlooks Hvar Town and provides wide views over the harbor and surrounding islands. Upon arrival, you can park the buggy nearby and explore the fort at your own pace. Visitors can walk along the historic walls and learn more about its important defensive role in protecting the town.

  2. Malo Grablje

    30 min

    Malo Grablje is an abandoned stone village located a short drive from Hvar Town. Once a small farming settlement, it was gradually deserted in the 20th century as residents moved closer to the coast. Today, its empty stone houses and narrow paths create a quiet and atmospheric setting, offering a glimpse into Hvar’s rural past. It is a unique stop for walking, exploring, and taking photos away from the busy seaside areas.

  3. Stop 3

    one hour

    Zaraće is a small village located about 7 km from Hvar Town on the island’s southern cliffs. Below the village are two pebble coves; Velo Zaraće to the right and Malo Zaraće to the left, separated by only a few hundred meters. Surrounded by steep rocky cliffs and clear blue sea, these beaches offer a more natural and dramatic setting than most beaches near town.

  4. Stop 4

    one hour

    About 9 km east of Hvar Town, along the southern coast, lies the beautiful cove of Dubovica. Above the pebble beach stands a historic stone house that resembles a small seaside castle, giving the cove its distinctive character. The buggy is parked along the main road above, followed by a walk of less than 10 minutes down to the beach. Proper shoes are recommended, as the path is uneven.

  5. Tvrdalj Castle

    20 min Admission not included

    Tvrdalj Castle was the summer residence of the Croatian poet Petar Hektorović (1487–1572). In the 16th century, when Hvar faced attacks from the Ottoman Empire, Hektorović fortified his home so it could serve as a refuge for local residents. Today, visitors can explore this historic complex and see how a Renaissance noble combined poetry, architecture and defense in one unique residence.

  6. Dubokovic Wine

    1 h 30 min Admission not included

    Duboković Winery is a small, family-owned winery located near Jelsa, known for producing high-quality wines from native Dalmatian grape varieties. With a strong focus on tradition and limited production, the winery offers a more intimate and authentic tasting experience compared to larger commercial producers. Visitors can learn about local winemaking methods, explore the cellar, and enjoy carefully crafted wines that reflect the character of Hvar’s climate and soil.

  7. Brusje

    Passing by

    Brusje is a small traditional village located in the hills above Hvar Town, known for its lavender fields, olive groves and stone houses. Surrounded by dry-stone walls and open countryside, the village offers a peaceful atmosphere and wide views over the island’s northern coast. It is one of the oldest settlements on Hvar and provides insight into the island’s rural life and agricultural traditions.

  8. Fort Napoljun - Napolean

    30 min

    Fort Napoleon rises above Hvar Town and offers one of the best panoramic views on the island. From the viewpoint, you can see the town’s red rooftops, the Pakleni Islands and the open Adriatic Sea. Park the buggy below the fortress, walk a few meters to the viewpoint and take your time enjoying the scenery and taking photos, especially at sunset.
