About this experience
Discover the charming island of Korcula, one of the most beautiful islands of the Adriatic, whose name Korkyra Melaina/Black Korcula dates back to the ancient Greeks. With our panoramic vehicle, we will pass through the hot spots (viewpoint Korcula, hamlets in the interior of the island). A smaller, scenic road leads us to a viewpoint above Pupnatska luka, without a doubt the most beautiful bay on the entire island.
View the fields and vineyards of the autochthonous cultivars of Korčulan grapes. After visiting two family-owned wineries on Korcula island, we arrive at our winery ‘Adria’ where we will taste not only wine but also the best of island’s liquors, olive oil, jams, and homemade sweets.
*In case of bad weather or unforseen circumstances instead of panoramic minibus we will use electrical Opel minivan (first electrical minivan sold in Croatia)
