About this experience
We look at experience Hvar a little bit differently. We know that for a mind blowing experience you need to touch someone’s senses: tastes, smells, sounds and pictures – this all makes a vacation. In order to create something really special, you also need to touch someone’s heart. We like to call this effect Hvar in heart and that’s why we know that you don’t want to miss our wine tours. It’s not just about wines it’s a story that we would like to tell you in our own special way.
So, you wake up, you breathe in the fresh Hvar air and you decide that in half a day, you would like to become “sommelier” of Hvar? Our half-day wine tour will take you on a journey through centuries of vineyards of Hvar, with your expert local guide bringing the wines to life and unraveling Hvar wine story. Ok, maybe we cannot promise you that you will become a sommelier but we can promise you that you will have a great wine experience.
