We had a wonderful day thanks to our most competent guide Sinny (Sinisa). His great storytelling and good sense of humor was fabulous and we actually learned a lot about the Istrian culture, the region and its history. The shuttlebus was very convenient, perhaps a bottle of water or some other drinks would have been nice but on the other hand you have sufficient time to buy something yourself during your stay in the first two villages. If you really want to learn more about Istria and explore the region with an experienced and knowledgeable local guide, I can highly recommend this tour! Best regards from Switzerland and the Netherlands

It was a wonderful private tour. Sini is very knowledgeable about Croatian and Istrian history and culture and just an overall great guy. He also has relationships with local vendors and restaurants which is very helpful. Grožnjan and Motovun are the highlights with pit stops on a couple of spots along the way with some stunning scenery and photo ops. I don’t drive and there’s no viable public transport option, so this was an ideal activity. I highly recommend this tour!
