Modric Cave

Reviewed By caitiecross - Brisbane, Australia

Not exaggerating when I say this was one of the best things we spent our money on while in Croatia. The cave itself is full to the brim of exciting formations, and Marijan (the guide) is full to the brim with knowledge about it! We learned so much between jokes and laughs on the tour, I absolutely recommend.

Putalj Winery

Reviewed By Nessnessnessnessness - London, United Kingdom

Two friends and I planned this very last minute but it turned out to be a real highlight for us. Due to the current situation we were fortunate enough to have the whole place to ourselves but Sadan, the owner made just as much if not more of an effort to make this an amazing experience for us. The view from his first tasting room is incredible and the wine was free flowing while he shared facts about his craft and his life stories which were fascinating. You could tell he was passionate about wine! We ended up staying late talking, enjoying wine (one might say too much as it was as much as you can drink) and lovely cheese, ham and bread to go with it! Wir hatten sehr spontan entschieden diese Tour zu buchen aber es war die absolut richtige Entscheidung. Wir hatten einen tollen Abend mit viel Wein, tollen Geschichten des Eigentümers und Snacks. Allein für die Leidenschaft mit der Sadan, der Eigentümer über Wein und sein Leben spricht sind sie Tour wert. Sehr empfehlenswert.

Vunetovo Craft Beer

Reviewed By Marko_Oz86 - Zagreb, Croatia

Almost hidden in the neverending string of various beach bars, rent-a-whatevers and other things that dot the coastline around the town of Hvar, the place can only be described as a Mediterranean beer garden, combining the beer made by the owners themselves - and Anna is an excellent brewer - with traditional snacks and, here and there, dishes. The APA made by them was flawless and in very good shape, something you do NOT run into frequently while island hopping, and the other taps were filled by classically nice Zmajska Pivovara beers, as this "semi-"season didn't give them impetus enough to brew more different things. The prices are as expected when it comes to Hvar, but unlike a lot of places (when it comes to beer), you get what you pay for! Definitely a must-visit if you're in Hvar - and if you're in, say, Amphora, and love beer, there's no excuse not to go here!

We stopped at the winery on a random day in the week after tourist season, without a reservation and without any expectations. What happened next was one of the magical evenings you always dream about when you’re somewhere on a vacation and want to experience something authentic and special. Marina and her brother invited us inside their beautiful place and even though they were busy during harvest season gave us their full attention and all the delicious wine to taste. Marina is a special person paying attention to every detail and she is very professional and friendly. The whole family business is run with love to their wine and their customers and it truly shows. If you love wine or just like to experience the local atmosphere and great hospitable people you don’t want to miss this place!

We are a family owned winery in Lumbarda that produces wine by generations. We offer two premium wines - white wine Grk and red wine Plavac. Feel free to visit us.

Reviewed By JJ064 - Franz Josef, New Zealand

We are so glad we booked this experience in advance. I don't think we would ever think back on our time in Croatia without remembering the time we spent at this winery as we had the best experience that was far beyond our expectations. This family have a huge history here and we loved learning all about it. Now we have a new appreciation for our wine in New Zealand as the forerunner to introduce wines to our country came from the Nobilo family, here in Lombardy. We have had many winery tours, this personalised one was the best. It was such a reasonable cost for delicious and generous wines and food.

Lokrum Island

Amazing island, with plenty of things to do and discover: botanical garden, Dead Sea, olive groves, beautiful views, with many peacocks and rabbits around, old Benedictine monastery, exhibition and info on Game of Thrones as well. Very nice playground and volleyball/ soccer playgrounds. Don’t forget to bring your swimwear: you have many places to take a refreshing bath on the rocks (and showers as well). We arrived with our sailing boat and moored in the southern bay, there are boats from Dubrovnik harbor departing every now and then to reach the island!
