Also sample Grk and other Croatian wines at a local winery, and taste homemade jams, olive oils and other local products at a farmhouse.

Conclude in Dubrovnik, a beautiful historic city overlooking the Adriatic Sea. With your expert private guide, explore the highlights of the Old City of Dubrovnik, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with medieval city walls, white limestone streets, and well-preserved Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque architecture.
