Definitely a worthwhile tour!

This was a wonderful experience! My guide, Denis, was so knowledgeable, easy to listen to and talk with, and it was a pleasure to spend the day with him. I learned a lot, ate great food, and the countryside and towns were beautiful. I recommend this tour, particularly if you want to learn about truffles.

Day Trip to Istria

I had such a great day exploring Istria in just one trip. Rovinj is beautiful and a great place for shopping. The charming artist town of Grožnjan was definitely my favorite as it was beautiful and so full of character. There wasn’t much to see in Motovun in my opinion but it did offer amazing views and I had the best truffle pasta while there. Our guide Dalibor was also a highlight. He was a history genius, super friendly, and really made the day fun and run smoothly.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed exploring Istria and that Grožnjan was a favorite. Dalibor will be delighted to hear your kind words about his knowledge and friendliness. And we agree — truffle pasta in Motovun is a treat!
