Oysters and mussels tasting with wine in Ston and Pelješac
Description
You will have the opportunity to try freshly opened oysters, mussels, and a local Croatian wine. You will enjoy the Bay of Mali Ston. The bay hosts the largest oyster cultivation facilities in the Adriatic. Mussels are also part of the marine culture. The favorable hydrological conditions for seashell cultivation have been recognized since ancient times; remnants of oyster farming dating back to the Roman Empire have been found in the area. The Walls of Ston that you will see on the tour are large fortifications built by the Republic of Ragusa. They are the second-longest walls in Europe.

this tour operator left us waiting and didn’t show. ruined our day. we called him after trying through vistar. he claimed to us his driver was ill but separately told viatar his mother was ill. whether there is any truth here our not we were left standing around without tfe courtesy of a call. we did receive our money back. i’d look elsewhere!
it was so horrible, I’m waiting for pickup for 30min, then I called the tour operator at +385976155489, he told me he is sick, I need to cancel booking myself, no one even to inform me in advance the trip is canceled, I just spent whole morning to wait if I didn’t call! Terrible experience I ever had!
We were the only ones on the tour and got front seat view of the oyster farming stages right up to eating freshly shuckled oysters from the sea.
This was the most amazing experience! Our driver picked us up from our apartment near Old Town and first drove us to Ston where we grabbed coffee and walked around. Then he drove us to the port, where an oyster/mussel farmer took us out his boat to harvest fresh oysters and mussels. He was so nice and knowledgeable - he explained the history of Ston and the process of farming oysters/mussels. Each person tried 5 mussels (straight from the bay!) along with local wine. He also grabbed mussels from the bay and his daughter (who was in the boat) cooked them up to make the most amazing dish, served with bread for dipping. It was truly the coolest, most unique experience. I would recommend 1000%!

Wow this tour with Peter was amazing. Ston is beautiful, the oyster trip was stunning and peaceful and the owner was so happy to chat and the winery was gorgeous with lovely wines and food. Definitely recommend this trip.
I have nothing but the best to say for this experience. We learned so much about the local customs and traditions and beside that ate some great food! If you are thinking abnout booking this tour, do it!!!
The host Pero picked us up from our accommodation, he was very flexible and nice. The guy at the oysters and mussels tasting brought us closer to the family tradition and the shells are so fresh and amazing!!! Winery was exeptional, all of the tasted wines were heaven. I would recommand this for all of the guests who want to ecape to a peaceful place and relax.
