Beautiful bike ride through olive groves and grapevines. End at 2 wineries with great wines and an even better view. Need to be comfortable on a bike. There are a few hills which you could always just walk up and it’s about a 7 mile ride.

This tour truly exceeded our expectations. The 4-hour tour with Dusan our driver and guide had everything and offered well-organised tastings of honey and olive oil to wonderful wines and rakya. We were lucky enough to hear much of the history and traditions of the island from Dusan who was a skilled driver and very professional. The tour was well balanced and one of the true highlights of our holiday. Highly recommended. Many thanks again to your company and especially Dusan.

We did the island cruise and booked directly down at the old port. We were told all details, the time of pickup and gave our phone number (as well as paying a deposit). Our driver Marco rang the night before to confirm time for the pick up at our hotel, he rang 10 minutes before pick up to confirm he was on his way. Picked up on time we were delivered to the boat, which was a little way up the river from the port of Gruz, we were very lucky that our group was small and very multicultural, just 10 of us and the informative captain (and driver) for day Marco. Plenty of room on the boat, a very large coolbox with plenty of drink (beers, wines, soft drinks and water), off we went to Lopud for our first stop, time for a cool drink at the sea front cafes and then a hike to one of the churches on this beatiful island. (be warned although the directions are plentiful and give the metres - they fail to say the walks are almost vertical in ascent). If you manage the hike/ climb the views are amazing. Onward we went on to Sipan, straight out of a picture postcard book, the dinky little port is so pituresque - our group didn't lunch on the boat, as we disembarked Marco took us to the captains house where we had a lush 6 course lunch - awesome! Off we then trotted to out last island, Kolocep, we had just 45 minutes there, a beautiful island where we just took coffee and enjoyed the views. On the final trip back to port we were rewarded by a gorgeous sunset, A great finale to a lovely day.
