Istria: Guided Tour of Inner Istria with Food Tasting

12.Istria: Guided Tour of Inner Istria with Food Tasting

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 67 reviews · 8 hours · from $108

Spend eight hours exploring Inner Istria with guide Siniša, known as Sini, in an air-conditioned van. Visit Lim Fjord, Grožnjan, Motovun, and Pazin, with guided walks, truffle and local-product tasting, free time for lunch, and pickup from southern Istria.

“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”

Split: Olive museum Klis with Olive Oil Tasting

13.Olive museum Klis with Olive Oil Tasting

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 51 reviews · from $18Best value

At Stella Croatica near Klis, an English-speaking host leads you through a family estate, food workshop, herb garden, natural cosmetics display, and Olive Oil Museum. You will taste traditional sweets, test cosmetics, and compare two extra virgin olive oils in a practical tasting session before browsing the shop and grounds.

“We visited the museum as a family with our nine-year-old daughter. Everything was explained very clearly. Afterwards, we took part in a workshop where the different qualities were explained and we were also allowed to taste them. Just like a sommelier, we "sniffed" and "tasted" the difference between good and bad olive oil. It was also very interesting for our daughter. I can highly recommend it to anyone interested in olive oil! You can buy olive oils and other products in the museum shop. As a final highlight, we visited the herb garden and explored the old buildings. Very nice 👍🏻Read more”
