The tour was really nice and very informative. In the 2 hours you get a really good insight into the olive oil production on Cres and its history with all the necessary steps. There was a really great oil tasting at Macmalić, followed by a small tour of the oil mill and finally a really tasty snack. All of our questions were answered and the lady was really very nice. 10/10 would recommend.
