Extension program Sinj Photographer: Roko Pavlinušić Unique river landscape surrounded by mountains – 3 days in Sinj Would you like to spend a few days in Dalmatia before or after your Islandhopping tour? Are you looking for a program that offers you both organised activities as well as enough free time to explore the fascinating region on your own? Then we recommend our three-day extension program in the town of Sinj, inland from Split town. This program includes two nights’ accommodation with breakfast, a city tour of Sinj accompanied by a professional guide, and a choice between one of two possible excursions in the surrounding area: either a jeep tour along the river Cetina or a quad tour along the dirt roads of Dinara; both include a traditional lunch.
