I loved it! Great wine and food. Learned a lot about wine! Really cool guide and knowledge for the walking tour.
Magdalena was a fantastic guide, informative & good humoured. Wine tasting was an excellent addition to the tour, very educational but still a lot of fun & delicious wine.
Nice quick way to see the city with a very good tour guide. Also enjoyed the wine tasting add-on to learn a little about Croatian wines
We had a very knowledgeable tour guide, that was able to explain everything about the palace. The tour did however get repetitious and longer than we felt necessary with a lot of the same information.
Our guide was very friendly and lighthearted which isnt something you always see in croatian hospitality
Slavco did a great job giving us the tour! He truly loves his country! The wine tasting was a wonderful way to finish our tour. We learned a lot about the importance of pairing wines and local wine making.
Great tour! Was very nice to be able to learn so much about the area from a knowledgeable local. It could be a good option to add on museum tour and tickets, if possible. But still am awesome tour as is.
It was a great morning. Ivan was an excellent guide. The wine tasting was also a very good experience. We stayed and had lunch at the restaurant. The hostess was knowledgeable without being pedantic.
