Our guide was very knowledgeable providing us with enough history and local knowledge to satisfy our desire to know more about Malta. He spoke clearly and answered all questions with confidence. The food was was delicious and planned beautifully to fit in with the history. Thank you 🙏🏻

A really great experience! We loved getting to see the countryside, olive farm and mill. The olive oil tasting and food was brilliant and it was great to understand the history of the area. A very engaging tour with fantastic hosts too - a huge thank you!

Don’t usually go on tours but the offer of lovely olive oil and food got me interested. Certainly worth the money! I also really enjoyed the historical site visits and fun commentary. Definitely worth doing!

Really tasty local food and informative talk on olive oil. Worth the money, great way to spend a couple of hours in the centre of Zadar.

It was very good and informative and the olive oil farmer really took us along with his enthusiasm. His story and CV are impressive.
