My 6 year old son and I were the only ones on the tour with Tino. It was a fantastic day and I’m so glad that we did it. Tino was an absolutely amazing driver and guide - he provided lots of detailed history and information throughout the day but also went above and beyond in making the various stops extra interesting and relevant for my son. The jeep itself was loads of fun, and lunch was delicious and our hosts were so friendly (and what a beautiful, tranquil spot). I’d highly recommend this to anyone - it was an unforgettable day!

It was a really good tour. The meal was at a Croatian home and the food was excellent. The olive museum was worth a visit. Great day out.

Tino was an amazing guide. This is a must do tour with amazing views and authentic food!

It was very seamless to have tickets before hand and right on my phone.

Great way to quickly get to the Golden Horn Beach!
