Tour was amazing, tour guide Andro who is also an owner of the tour company was fantastic. It was raining really bad during our tour he took us to a cafe to wait for rain to pass a bit and after he tried to fit everything in for us to have best experience. He was on time and was flexible with time because our cruise was a little late on time originally schedule for a tour. He made sure we were happy and wanted my kids and I to go places we wanted and answered all the questions we had plus had such a great knowledge of the history of the region. Made my girls and I fall in love with Montenegro thanks to Andro. I highly recommend this tour you will be highly satisfied! If I could give it 10 stars I would!

I've waited way too long to post this review as I wanted to sit and write a novel about how great everything was. However, I'm way overdue and just need to say that Grgo and his family made our trip to Hvar so special. My husband and I did the private Red tour and between the hospitality of Grgo and learning so much more about the Island than you can find by simply staying in town, this is a great option. PLENTY of wine too which is what we were looking for. Thank you, Grgo! We hope to return one day.

Highly recommend for a real authentic experience. My husband and I are digital nomads and we have experienced a lot of different tours around Europe but this was an absolute highlight for us. Spending the day with our guide Jadran was just like having a local friend take us out to all the best spots in Split, we felt like we got the very best local experience. Jadran was super knowledgeable, we had such a great time! We visited some amazing spots that you wouldn't get to experience on your own. We went to a fabulous family run winery and also had an incredible feast at a local home, it was very unique and something you can't experience in a restaurant. It was a long day but it felt well timed and very relaxed, we also came home absolutely stuffed from all the wonderful food! If you love food, wine, a taste of history and good company this is the perfect tour.

We booked the wine tasting tour not knowing what to expect .there was only four of us on the trip even when fully maximum of 8 person . Lovely wine guide called Tena who was very knowledgable not only about the wine but as a local the city and culture . We had a great day sampling wines which we would not have found if we had been alone . Well worth the cost will do again in the future and recommend to friends

Four of us took a day trip to Montenegro from Dubrovnik. Igor was our guide and was fantastic. We started off early in the morning stopping for coffee with a view, a visit to Perast, a drive up the mountain behind Kotor with a stop for drinks with a view to die for, then on to the village of Njegusi where we visited a local smokehouse and had a wonderful traditional lunch. We visited the old city of Kotor in the afternoon and then headed back to Dubrovnik. It was a full day spent in the good company of Igor, who was knowledgable, friendly and most of all, fun. The tour was reasonably priced and there was good communication with the company before the tour. They were even able to accommodate a last minute switch in tour days due to predicted bad weather. I would highly recommend using this company for a day trip to Montenegro.

We wish we had done this tour in the first day of our stay in Zadar. Sime (Simon)is a local and gave us a fantastic story and history of this fascinating and mainly beautiful place. From its Illyrian roots ,the Roman remains and through history to the scars of WW2 and recent war in 1991 and the impact of this on Zadar and its architecture. You get the feeling that Old Zadar is for the locals,lived in by the locals and has not sold its soul like other Adriatic cities. There are brutalist buildings stood next to Roman remains but you have an understanding why this is but this is the beauty of Zadar today.

Dubrovnik is an amazing city by day, but by night it is absolutely supreme. The beauty of the city comes to surface even more when the sun goes down and the public lights turn on.  Architecture is radiant, streets are not as crowded as they are during the day and it will be a completely different experience for you as you listen to some other stories about the life of medieval Ragusa.

My husband and I had a private tour with Michaela. It was the perfect introduction to Dubrovnik. We learned so much about the town’s history, the Homeland war, and of course the Game of Thrones filming locations and stories about the sets and cast. Michaela was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. It was an absolute delight to spend the afternoon with her!!
