What our guests say

"We had an amazing day! As a native, Julija knows so much about the region and really helped us understand its history. She knows the great local spots, is very accommodating, and will tailor your tour to your individual needs. We chose to go for the oysters and wine tour and it was an amazing experience. I cannot recommend her highly enough! We stayed in Croatia for 4 days and it was certainly the highlight of our trip."
- Jennifer, US (review on TripAdvisor)

"We booked an individual day with Julija last August. We visited two wine producers and also went out with a local oyster fisherman. We had the most wonderful day ever. Julija was a fantastic guide. She is intelligent witty and very informative and she has a lovely engaging personality. Julija made our day one which we will always remember with great fondness and we look forward to another trip with her next year when we once again visit beautiful Cavtat

"
- Jane, Ireland (review on TripAdvisor)

"Luck...yes we were very lucky to have come across Julija on trip advisor. My visit would not have been as good. She is prompt, pleasant, very knowledgeable on where and what to do. She is engaged and will go out of her journey plan to make sure that her clients get what they are looking for. Highlight of the trips was having her take me around both Croatia and Montenegro. The experience of a life time was the Oyster farm... truly not to forget. People like her make you love her country. Looking forward for my next trip there."

Ston, Mali Ston and flavours of the region

Ston and Mali Ston

Ston and Mali Ston are located about an hour’s drive from Dubrovnik, in an area where life has long depended on the sea and what it provides.

Ston is known for its medieval walls and its long tradition of salt production. Mali Ston, on the other hand, is closely connected to oyster farming and the Bay of Mali Ston, where oysters have been cultivated for generations.

Because of this, food here is not separate from daily life, but part of it, shaped by local knowledge, simple ingredients and long-standing traditions.

Oysters from the Bay of Mali Ston

The Bay of Mali Ston is one of the best-known areas in Croatia for oyster farming. Its natural conditions have made it suitable for shellfish cultivation for centuries, and oysters remain one of the most recognisable local products.

They are traditionally eaten fresh, opened on the spot and served raw with a squeeze of lemon. Tasting them directly on the water gives a clear sense of their freshness and of the environment they come from.

Food and wine of the Pelješac area

Alongside oysters, this area is also known for its local dishes and wines. Food here is simple, seasonal and closely tied to what the sea and land provide.

Wine is an important part of that tradition, and it is usually enjoyed together with food rather than on its own. This connection between food and wine is still part of everyday life and is reflected in the way both are presented during the tour.

A local way of experiencing the region

What makes this part of southern Croatia specific is that food and wine are still closely connected to the people who produce them. Oyster farming, winemaking and local cooking are not presented as staged experiences, but as part of a living tradition.

Through the combination of Ston, the Bay of Mali Ston and a winery visit, the tour offers a way to experience the region that is grounded in place, food and local life.
