Driving VW Beetles around Hvar and Split

The 1970s still are the most stylish decades of all time. 

It started with ‘some revolutionary’ ideas, unacceptable by then, but today’s kids are laughing out loud about it…Still, there is something very appealing even today, which may attract new followers more than ever. 

It’s not music – today, it’s electric cars, sustainable energy supply, but always it’s flares and bell sleeves, miniskirts, and all this eclectic mix of style influences.

Then – skirts got shorter, boots got taller, and a range of style icons like Jane Birkin helped spearhead some of the most memorable fashion moments of that time while the piece sigh was everywhere. 

Today – we drive Tesla’s and Mercedes hybrids and listen to old music hits processed in some modern way.

What goes around – comes around! 

The atmosphere of freedom while driving the convertible Beetle around the Adriatic coast or islands – it’s the best you can get this summer to be modern and old-fashioned at the same time. Summer spirit of 70′ is the best way to describe these two unique tours we are about to present to you.
