Not a tour but an experience - My husband and I had a great time in this tour. Mislav, our guide is very knowledgeable, professional and fun. First of all, they used a nice Mercedes van to transport you the whole time. The sightseeing in Cavtat was great and learning the history. We had a blast at the Botaro winery for our wine tasting with Anthony. They have great wine selection and the charcuterie was so delicious. And finally the Peka lunch was to die for. Amazing food! This is not just a tour, it is an experience! I highly recommend it.

Brilliant Experience ! - Loved this tour - from the moment we were picked up from our apartment by Mislav - with a huge smile. Comfortable vehicle that took us to the picturesque town of Cavat. The shell museum was an interesting visit there. Enjoyed the ambience of the Botaro winery - with fresh platter and flavoursome wine tasting. Nice to escape the heat in the Fransiscan Monestary in Pridvorje and just sit and contemplate for abit. Our lunch stop on the Ljuta river was amazing - very special place and interesting to be able to see the food cooked in the traditional Peka style. Mislav was a terrific host and kept us engaged the whole time with stories of history and his own personal life. He took us through some of destruction of the hotels during the 91-95 war - not on the itinerary but we appreciated the detour.THANKYOU so very very much for a worthwhile experience. 4 happy travellers from New Zealand 😀

Konavle Gastro and Culture tour - Hubby and I had a wonderful day. Mislav was our careful driver and kept us interested with a thorough knowledge of local history. The wine tasting and tasting board were excellent. The chosen restaurant was far more and above our highest expectations. Food here was really delicious and plentiful.

Konavle Private Tour - My husband and I celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary by booking this private and exclusive tour. I reached out to Damir who posted about this amazing tour of the Konavle region. We visited a beautiful gallery of exclusive underwater creatures collected by a family for over 15+ years, visited a beautiful family owned winery, visited multiple areas to see traditional Croatian heritage, and final stop was an amazing traditional Croatian meal. We absolutely had an amazing time during the entirety of this trip. It being a private tour was extremely convenient and so peaceful! We did not have to endure the masses. I’m addition, we had the absolute best tour guide Ivona!!! She was my favorite person to meet on my entire trip! She is so lovely, kind, funny, and charismatic! She gave us great information 100% book this tour! You won’t regret it and will see some beautiful things along the way!
