Great Tour and Wine Tasting - We wanted to do a wine tasting, but none of the agencies in Hvar town seemed to want to offer one. Luckily we found this one on line via Getyourguide. Booked and paid about 10.30 pm, acknowledged within 15 minutes and picked up bang on time by Dinka at 12 am the next day. Great organisation. Dinka was a fabulous guide covering everything from the Islands history, language, agriculture and even football, which is of course the universal language. We visited the Napoleonic fort, lavender terraces, old stone dwellings and then finally spent over an hour in a candlelit cellar where we sampled 9 wines and 4 olive oils. The host was very friendly and got the balance between giving us space and telling us about the wines just right. There was no hard sell. If you are looking for a tour of multiple wineries and to learn a lot more this might not be for you, but for us the chance to sample many wines in a friendly environment was spot on. The visit confirmed my view that Croatia has some excellent wines. Overall at about £100 a person, for a three hour tour off the beaten track I thought this good VFM. We were told a driver alone would be £50/h.

Wine, Olive Oil and Buena Vista! - We were picked up by Dinko our guide from our villa which was great service and taken to a small winery in Jelsa, taking in some stunning scenery on route. The wine and olive oil tasting took the pace in their cellars which was a great and welcoming coolness. We got to try 7 wines, including the prize winner, as well as 4 deliciously flavoured olive oils. On the way back Dinko took us a different route back past all the dry stone walls and terraces and up to Fort Napoleon which gave superb views of the Pakleni Islands. A great way to spend a few hours!

Wine Tasting and Hvar Points of Interest: Not to Be Mised! - Our guide was from Hvar and really made the tour that much more interesting. We made a couple of stops on our way back from the wine tasting and this for me, was the best part. As for the wine, I wasn't that interested but did buy 1 bottle and some olive oil. The person giving the wine tasting was very informative, though. All in all, I'd recommend the tour.

Delicious and educational time! - Urska was a wonderful host for this tour! She picked us up from our Airbnb in Hvar and drove us to and from the winery in Jelsa. On the drive she shared history and knowledge about the different towns on the island and stopped at different view points for us to get amazing views of the cities. She loves her home and we’re so glad she shared it with us. We loved the car ride just as much as the wine and olive oil tasting itself! At the winery, we learned about different types of wines and what is local to Hvar. We tasted 7 delicious wines and 4 types of olive oil. Our host at the winery, Marina, was gracious and educated us on the different offerings at the winery. This tour was the highlight of our stay on Hvar because we got to see what else the island has to offer outside of Hvar Port (there is so much to see !)

Best olive oil! - Very nice experience. The olive oil was the best we've ever tasted. The driver took us around the back way and showed us a little bit more about Hvar. Lots of fun.

Not a good tour for the money - This was not what we expected. The drive was ok sharing some history about the island but the wine tasting experience was average. Our host for the wine did not offer much information and constantly left our table to attend to others. We were told this would include olive oil but it was a tiny amount with little pieces of bread and again hardly any information about it. Would not recommend.
