Dubrovnik Gastronomy: 3-Hour Food and Wine Tour

1. Dubrovnik Gastronomy: 3-Hour Food and Wine Tour

The city of Dubrovnik is known for a lot of things: its UNESCO-worthy Old Town, the sprinkling of idyllic islands that surround the mainland, the ancient city walls that comprise King's Landing in the popular HBO show 'Game of Thrones'... However, one thing that Dubrovnik is not know for, and should be, is the incredible food and wine. Take a lovely guided tour of the city's World Heritage Site-listed Old Town, and visit four cozy restaurants nestled within for a taste of Dubrovnik's unique gastronomy. Walk down the beautiful cobblestone streets and alleyways of the Old Town, and pass by some of the city's major sights, including the Franziscan and Dominican monasteries, the palaces of Sponza and Rector, and the Baroque cathedral. Discover national culinary traditions through the years, and enjoy a tasting of various snacks accompanied by a glass of local wine. Finish the fun food adventure at a cute patisserie within the ancient walls of Old Town for a taste of traditional Croatian cake.

The 3-hour food and wine tour is a must-do! All of the food and wine samples were from excellent restaurants and we made new friends with everyone in our group. We were able to sample many menu items and, Iva, our tour leader, was extremely knowledgable about each restaurant, cuisine, ingredients, and city culture. I would recommend this to everyone visiting Dubrovnik!

What an incredible tour!! Our guide was amazing, friendly, knowledgeable and so great with our group. The food selected at each place was out of this world good!! Great Information given about the area during the tour as well as culture, local and food Information. A must if coming your visit!

Slightly sceptical about Croatian cuisine, but highly recommend this tour. I’m not sure I’ve ever come across a more charismatic, knowledgable, wonderful lady than Anna our guide. I’d book again just to listen to her speak some more. Definitely worth doing

Excellent tour. Highly recommend. Our guide Ana was phenomenal.

Wonderful time with Maria! Great fun with great food!
