Media about us
Reference letter

 

this may be the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

ALTERNATURA, the youngest tourist agency on island Vis, derived from the Club KALEB from Komiza in 2001. The Director is Pino Vojkovic (paragliding pilot, diver and the captain of fishing boat "gajeta falkusa"), together with: Petra Kvesic, who run the office and also practices paraglyding and other sports. The last partner of our small business is Boris Zitnik, MBA from Zagreb, the owner of OMNIAconsult and the director of IDC Hrvatska. However, it is our local hosts that are the most important, the ones with their fire places, boats, cuisine and skills.

We are not interested in great numbers and tourists in the form of baggage, we want to give ourselves to each and every one of you. This marginal Adriatic archipelago and our exclusive destinations can not stand a mass of visitors, and the activities we offer you - even less so! As it is hard to avoid summer crowds in Vis and Komiza, the real solution is for you to return sometime out of season.

We are ALTERNATURA, because we bring you back to fundamental values, that have became an alternative in this modern world, like: a host, a fireplace, fire, home cooking, a donkey, a goat, a boat, fishing, flying, sailing, horseback riding, caves, children, quiet, birds…

You will not be bored, but – fear not, besides SPORTS, we also offer COMFORT TOURS: boat ride around Vis, and a van ride across the island. Sports tour begins with hiking and bicycles, and continues with paragliding (flying in double paraglider), sailing on fishing boat "gajeta falkusa", diving in The Blue Cave and around the volcanic island Brusnik, horseback riding to the Stoncica lighthouse, speleology for beginners course in The Queen's Cave near Okjucina!

Some may ask: “What will we do about our children?” For kids we have prepared different workshops and acknowledged expert tutors.

We will take take you to the best fireplaces and the most interesting hosts at Vis, Podstražje, Plisko polje, Mala Travna, Zena Glava, Podhumlje, in Stupisce in Komiza and in some of the most hidden villages. From the most fishing place on the Adriatic, you will sail to Bisevo, to Brusnik and Svetac, all the way to Palagruza and Jabuka.

And the history of Vis?
Volcanos, caves. Ionnius, Diomedes, Dionysius of Syracuse, Issa, Plato, Teute, Julius Caesar, The Benedictines, Pope Alexander 3rd, Venice, English on the Adriatic, Governer Robertson, young Nelson, Cricket club, Napoleon, George 3rd, Franz Joseph, Tito, Churchill, commandos, RAF… there’s no other island in the Adriatic with stories like these, told in the way of, maybe, Ionnius way or Teute tours! We will show you fortresses, underground labyrinths, airport, a great archaeological museum at Vis and Fisherman Collection at Komiza. Don’t be surprised when you get a red scarf around your neck up at Tito’s Cave

If that’s not enough, you can always run to make some one – day trips. Our offer: Hvar, Stari Grad, panorama flight with a sports plane, lunch at Pakleni otoci; the desert of Blaca at Brac, rafting at Cetina.

It can no longer be the way it was so far! New values should be introduced. A man must be in the center, a man must turn to a man for tourism was created for the sake of the man, and not vice versa. Tourism has the future only if the aim of its development is – more humanity!

 
Jost Kripendorf, Travelling mankind, the bible of new tourism

No cheating
- there are no groups comprising of more than 15 people. Our approach is “face-to-face”, with no room for cliché. The Barjoška bay, the warmest spot in Croatia, is not supposed to become Club Mediterrane, but rather Club Barjoska.

We are the link between guests and hosts. One of the key experience of the season 2002. is the wish by Jelena and Lenko from Okljucina (while she does the cooking, he takes visitors to the Krajicina cave): "All we need are three groups a week, not larger than 12 people. We wouldn't like to turn into a restaurant." For the first time after who knows how many decades someone in Okljucina is making money and local children are running around. Now, isn't that REVITALISATION?
