After enjoying breakfast we started our riding adventure. Our guide was wonderful and shared a lot of information. The ranchers we had were delightful. The horses were well trained.

15.Full-Day Quad and Wild Horses Safari in Livno from Split

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 12 reviews · 8 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $216

Leave Split at 8:30 a.m. with guide Lovre for a small-group day in Livno. Ride a quad across Glamočko Polje, Cincar, and Kruži, meet wild horses, then enjoy burek and a traditional veal peka lunch. Passport and driving licence required.

“This was such an amazing experience, Lovre was very hospitable and kind and happy to share his love of his home. The horses and the mountain were stunningly beautiful. It does get chilly up on the mountain so you need pants and at least a sweatshirt. We had a late traditional breakfast/early lunch at Lovre’s families home. It is only one meal though but is advertised as two. And it is over an hour ride from split but Lovre picked us up and returned us right to our hotel in split. This was probably our favorite excursion on our 10 day trip to Rome/Venice and Croatia.”
