Itinerary
Your tour begins with a personalized pickup by a knowledgeable driver/guide, ensuring a smooth and insightful ride along the breathtaking Adriatic coast toward the Peljesac Peninsula—Croatia’s premier wine region.
First, you will visit the small historic town of Ston, located at the entrance to the Peljesac Peninsula. With its impressive medieval walls stretching over 5 kilometers (the longest in Europe) Ston once played a vital role as a fortification of the Dubrovnik Republic. The town is also renowned for its ancient salt pans, still in use today, and its world-famous oysters cultivated in the pristine waters of Mali Ston Bay. Whether you choose to stroll through its narrow streets or enjoy fresh local seafood, Ston perfectly combines both: cultural heritage and authentic local cuisine.
Next, you will immerse yourself in the winemaking heritage of the Peljesac Peninsula. Famous for its bold red varietals, including Plavac Mali and the legendary Dingac, Peljesac offers a perfect blend of history, culture, and stunning landscapes. You will visit three carefully selected local wineries and hear fascinating stories about the centuries-old traditions that shaped this region. In one of the wineries, snacks will be served alongside the wine, such as prosciutto, cheese, and other local delicacies. After this wine-filled experience, treat yourself to a delicious lunch at a family-run restaurant (own expense) featuring traditional Mediterranean dishes, or simply relax and enjoy a comfortable ride back to Dubrovnik.

Daniel was terrific. One time, knowledgeable, smart and fun. Had great recommendations for the rest of our trip. All 3 wineries were great stories, great people and good wines. Highly recommend stopping for fresh oysters and the mom and pop oyster house.
daniel was very knowledgeable and friendly. a pleasure to spend the day with. the wineries were very good choices and stopping for oysters and mussels on the way home really capped a wonderful day.
We really enjoyed this tour. Our guide Ivana was very accommodating and told us a lot about the history. We enjoyed the town of Stone and the salt mines where we stopped on the way to the wine tasting. Each of the three wine spots were unique, so it was fun even for my husband who doesn’t drink wine. Ivana then took us to a very nice restaurant where we were able to find traditionally cooked meat. All in all, it was a great day and I would recommend this private tour. We much prefer the private tours to the group ones because you can tailor them to your own time frames.
This wasn’t just a wine tour,it was so much more. From the very beginning, everything felt carefree and effortless. The journey started with a scenic drive along the Adriatic coast, followed by a stop in the charming town of Ston. What came next was a thoughtfully curated visit to a selection of exceptional wineries, each offering a unique glimpse into the region’s rich winemaking tradition. The highlight of the tasting, without a doubt, was the Dingac Reserva from Matusko Winery. Deep, brooding, and unapologetically bold, it lingered in the best way possible. Our guide, Daniel, brought a refreshing spark to the experience. Young, sharp, and genuinely passionate, he managed to thread local lore, winemaking insights, and good humor into something that felt more like spending time with a knowledgeable friend than a typical tour. By far the best tour we've ever been on. Book ti, you absolutely won't regret it.
Our wine tasting tour was simply outstanding. From the moment we were picked up, everything was seamless. Our driver was incredibly knowledgeable about the region. Visited three wineries, each offering phenomenal wines. If you are looking for a personalized wine tasting experience, I highly recommend it.
This private wine tasting tour exceeded all our expectations. From the breathing scenery to the warm hospitality of our guide, every moment was exceptional. The wineries we visited were charming, offering exquisite wines and delicious local snacks. If you are looking for an unforgettable experience, book it!
We had such a fantastic time on the Peljesac wine tour. Visited three top-notch yet different wineries. Each one with its own unique story. Tried white to dark red wines, sparkling wine, rose and homemade liqueurs - had a plate of delicious prosciutto and cheese. On the way back stopped for top-notch fresh oysters, a truly perfect day.
It started with a pick up from our hotel. Danijel welcomed us with a super clean and comfortable vehicle. Our first stop was Ston, a small town known for its city walls, salt pan and local food. After visiting Ston, we started our journey towards the wineries. We visited three different wineries, in the first we had three glasses of wine, one rose, one white and one red, in the second winery we had 4 glasses of wine and liqueurs as well as a snack (cheese and prosciutto), the third winery had a breathtaking view and they served us two glasses of wine, one white and one red. The wine was excellent and Danijel was outstanding. Thanks Daniel
