Fantastic trip. - The oysters really tasted incredibly mild. Not like anything I’ve tried before. AND you’re only given a lemon to dress them!

Amazing experience - best trip in Dubrovnik - Loved the tour! Went with our family of four and all had a great day. They picked us up from our Airbnb which made it much easier with the kids. First stop was a short break in Ston to explore. Second stop was the boat tour, definitely the highlight! The captain was really informative and answered all of our (mostly our kids) questions. Pulled and cleaned oysters for us fresh from the bay. Also included fresh cooked mussels and wine! Next stop was a winery tour which included a flight. Wine was great, but we particularly liked the sherry and bought a couple bottles to go. Azra was a great host, would definitely recommend this tour!

A nice little excursion on the sea - Fantastically nice excursion with absolutely wonderful oysters (and then September is as far from the season as it can be). The clam chowder, the wine and the little grappa were delicious. We were seven old men who had a great time. We also learned about the various difficulties and opportunities with mussel and oyster farming

A relaxing tour - Well-planned itinerary! Having freshly harvested oysters on the boat was a highlight, yet it was a bit rush (time on the boat was a bit too rush. It would be more pleasant if more time is allocated to enjoy the wine and seafood pairing). Detailed introduction at the winery. The drive was safe and comfy, the guide was highly responsive. Overall, it was a great trip!

If you are thinking BOOK IT - I had a wonderful time on the Ston & Pelješac tour! The oyster and mussel tasting in Hodilje was simply delicious. Buzara is incredible dish! The visit to the Škurla winery was equally enchanting, as we got to explore the fascinating world of winemaking and enjoy in some exquisite wines.Throughout the tour, the guides were knowledgeable and friendly, providing interesting insights into the history and culture of the region. The transportation arrangements were smooth and comfortable, making the entire experience hassle-free. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to savor the flavors of the Adriatic coast and experience the warm hospitality of the locals. It's a perfect blend of culinary delights, stunning scenery, and cultural immersion. Don't miss out on this exceptional adventure!

FANTASTIC! - My husband and I booked this excursion during our stay in Dubrovnik. It's a hard call, but I think it might have been my absolute favorite day of our trip! Our guide and driver were both wonderful, and talked us through Croatian/Dubrovnik history and geography as we drove to the peninsula. We stopped for a coffee in Ston first, where we learned about the salt production. The boat ride through the oyster farm and eating the fresh oysters right out of the water was UNREAL. Our captain/oyster farmer was also lovely, and talked us through oyster farming, which was super interesting and makes you appreciate it that much more. We stopped at a local winery on the way back and tasted some wonderful wines, Rakija, and olive oil, which was also fantastic. I could not recommend this experience more - it was so special!

Best wine and fresh oysters and mussels. Book without thinking!! - This was one of the best experiences around Dubrovnik. The oysters are fresh and the mussels are incredibly tasty. After that, we visited a small home winery where we were wonderfully entertained and the amount of wine poured by the host was quite generous. We would recommend it to everyone if they want to get away from the crowds and relax by the sea with the best quality wine. Thank you very much

Wonderful hosts and delicious oysters - the best day ever! - What a fantastic tour. It felt like more than a tour, it felt like we were just having a nice day out with some friends. This experience covers everything you want out of Ston and the Pelješac peninsula if all you have is a day. Azra took us to Ston where we got to see the city and then to the Oyster boat. Watching the oysterman shuck the oysters from the sea was truly a unique experience. The mussels he made us were the best I've ever had. As someone from the New England, I'm picky about oysters but they were amazing. After the boat trip we went to sample some wine from a sweet couple who have been making wine for many years. The wine was delicious and we bought a bottle to take with us. Azra made our time so special and we learned a lot about local life and culture. Book this tour!!!

Lovely day out - Great tour and flexible. Tour operator allowed us to reschedule due to the weather. Food was delicious and ours yet farm run a very friendly enthusiastic gentleman. Maybe slightly pricey for what it is but we were happy to contribute to the economy. Great overall

Oysters & mussels tasting with wine, Ston and Peljesac - Oysters and muscles lunch on the boat was great! The winery wasn’t so great, more like a home brew operation.
