This is the tour where you may try some of the best Croatian wines, Olive oils and oysters, in the same time as you enjoy in unspoiled nature, unpolluted crystal clear blue sea, picturesque landscapes and historical heritage.
I will be showing you the Arboretum Trsteno, a 500 year old aristocratic estate with the oldest monument of garden architecture in Croatia. After that, the tour takes us to the medieval town of Ston with Mali Ston and the longest preserved wall in Europe, approximately 3. 5 miles long, which is connecting those two little tower towns that used to protect the Peljesac peninsula from the possible intruders. Economically and strategically this was very important part of the territory of Old Dubrovnik Republic.
Besides all other goods the most important were the ancient salt pans, which are still producing the salt in the old traditional way, the same way as for centuries and it's one of the best sea salts in Mediterranean. We will visit the greatest wine region in Croatia, Peljesac.
