Ston is amazing, worth another visit to walk the walls. Island trip nice. Wine tasting really interesting in terms of technique used, decent tasting. Our guide for the day was great and knowledge.
Great Adventure to Ston &...

Great Adventure to Ston & Korcula. The city walls of Ston were amazing. The island of Korcula were fun to explore with ample time to sit, drink a glass of wine and gaze at the million dollar view. Thank you for a great day!
See the stone walls of Ston.

The driver/guide provided a very good experience. Not only was he informative and entertaining but he did so in two languages (English and Spanish).
Korcula Light and Fun Trip

Our driver Andrew got us to each stop safely with enough time to explore at our leisure. What really set this tour apart from others was our driver's flexibility to the group's needs (unscheduled bathroom breaks for those who need it, getting us to places earlier so we have more time at the stops we want). The wine tasting at the end was especially enjoyable with our driver allowing us to linger if we wanted to purchase additional tastings after the tour. 10/10
Good day trip away from busy Dubrovnik city

Each location was great. Ston with its history and salt mines

Korcula with its rich history, architecture, artist gallery and the beautiful Allie’s. Felt like Venice. Great restaurants on the eastern side of the peninsula.

The Peljesac peninsula itself was a treat despite the weather not being great. Still had a great day.

Few points for improvement:

The boat from Orebic to Korcula was too small and water very choppy. Could do with a larger boat

Stop over the Trudman bridge was skipped - bit disappointed

Wine tour stated a walk through the grounds, this wasn’t done either. Instead a tour of museum and replicas. Would’ve been much better if vineyards and real grapes, process of wine extraction was shown instead.

Overall a good day and would recommend it to others.
