We were docked here for the day on an e-bike tour and due to rain did a walking tour of the old city. Beautiful, narrow streets, cafes, restaurants, shops. Delightful town to spend the day and have… Full review by lauries614

Korcula is amazing! We really enjoyed the day we walked around the island, and learned that Marco Polo might have come from here as Korcula was part of Venice in his lifetime. Regardless, the island … Full review by Faithfultravelerrev

Q:
I am planning on renting a car to drive from Dubrovnik to Korcula as a daytrip. Questions: is the road OK? Can I go with the car to the island or do I have to leave it in the mainland? How is parking in Korcula like? Thank you in advance
A:
The roads are fine, but don't expect to travel at US highway speeds, you will not be averaging 60mph. You will be lucky to average 45mph. You will have to take a ferry to get across …
A:
The roads are fine, but don't expect to travel at US highway speeds, you will not be averaging 60mph. You will be lucky to average 45mph. You will have to take a ferry to get across the channel to Korcula. I would recommend you leave the car on the mainland even if you can find a ferry that can carry cars. There will be many more ferry options if you leave the car behind because most carry people only. As far as the town of Korcula, it is literally a "walled city" so there are no cars allowed inside. Unless you want to see the whole island, you will want to avoid bringing a vehicle. Plus, if you are just going for a day trip, you won't have the time to be able to travel the island. The town is what you want to see if you just have a few hours to visit. Enjoy!

Q:
I'm torn between staying near the Old Town or Lumbarda. I want relaxation but I like easy access to places where I can have a wander in the evenings - find a nice bar or restaurant (or 2). Is the Old Town overrun with cruise ship traffic? Is Lumbarda cut off from the Old Town in the evenings? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks
A:
I would vote to stay in the old town and drive/bus to lumbarda. That way you have the ability to talk to some nice cafes/restaurants in the evenings without too far to travel.
Q:
how long does the ferry take from dubrovnic
A:
The catamaram takes around two hours. The journey costs 130 Kuna (app. 18€). In the summer there are connections at 7am and 4pm from Dubrovnik's main harbour.
Q:
Hi crusinbob here, loved your Korcula review, where did you book the tour?
A:
We booked our trip through a kiosk in Cavtat there are a few on the water front. The prices vary so it was not expensive.
