Lovely museum and Pelago ticket worked perfectly
Very good, well maintained
Seamless experience and nice tour.
We really enjoyed the museum visit, and the best part was joining a free guided tour. Tour guide was very knowledgeable and has explained so much about interconnection of culture and religion in the region, that my 10 year old was simply amazed how it all came together. Thanks so much!
Great museum especially the ceramics and priceless jewellery
I was amazed by the cool display of ceramics hauled from the shipwreck. The docent tour was very informative, easy to follow, and fun! I highly recommend it!
