Discover the flavours and traditions just beyond Dubrovnik on this private half-day journey through the countryside and the Pelješac peninsula. Begin with a scenic coastal drive to Orašac, where you will visit a local household for a traditional olive oil production demonstration, followed by homemade snacks and wine.

Continue to Pelješac, a region celebrated for its wine, seafood, and salt-making heritage. In Ponikve, visit a small family-owned winery for wine and seafood tasting from nearby Mali Ston Bay, then round off the experience in historic Ston, known for its oysters, remarkable defensive walls, and ancient salt pans.

Especially interesting are the magnificent 5-km long walls surrounding the town – the longest defense walls after the Great Wall of China, and its ancient salt pans where the salt is still produced the same way as back in the time of the Dubrovnik Republic, as well as the time of the Romans, who built them.
