What You Will Do
Experience an epicurean adventure of the best Dubrovnik has to offer with a local expert. Dom will guide you in tasting locally produced olive oils, wines, and dishes at two of the top Dubrovnik restaurants (IG deliciousdubrovnik). No finger food or mass-produced products here.

You will enjoy not only the four most important wine varietals in the area paired with four dishes and a guided evaluation of two extra virgin olive oil but also the history and cultural context.
Feel the real Mediterranean experience while tasting the best things of the area and walking within Dubrovnik's monumental city walls.
