After you depart Dubrovnik, start your day trip through Dalmatia by visiting the charming village of Orašac, and take part in the production of olive oil in the old-fashioned way, where the mill is driven by a horse. Here, you will also have the opportunity to taste some homemade cheese, smoked ham and wine in a traditional Croatian house.

Enjoy a short tour of Ston, which in the times of the Dubrovnik Republic, was the second-most important town in the area. Its wealth was derived from the salt works that are still functioning today. Although it was known for its spectacular city walls, considered the second-longest in the world, the region today is predominantly known as the oyster capital of Croatia.

During the visit to the cellar, you will enjoy a wine tasting.
