Gastro Treasures of Croatia Guided E-Bike Tour 2025

We will start our first day with a bike fitting and an easy ride to Marjan hill - a park-forest paradise for all outdoor activities. After the ride, take your time for lunch and siesta, and in the afternoon we are taking you on a guided tour to explore Diocletian’s Palace - one of the best-preserved Roman monuments in the world. The central part of the day is local dinner at “Konoba”, as there is no better way to finish your day than with traditionally prepared fish and seafood paired with local wine and homemade grappa. Are you familiar with Dalmatian cuisine, flavors and food philosophy? How do we dry prosciutto, or salt anchovies, what is oblica, and how to get high-quality olive oil? Our guides will be happy to share all the insider stories with you. Dobar tek! (D)

In the morning after breakfast, we will take a ferry and visit the island of Brač.

After visiting an art gallery with unique sculptures, clothes, and jewelry made of this unique stone, we will enjoy in Brač delicacies.

On Brač, it’s hard to choose between fish, meat, and vegetables, so the best is to try it all… As an appetizer, and the main meal as well. We will have peka - the main star of every gathering and celebration in Dalmatia. The method of preparation makes this delicacy unique for its taste, but also for the atmosphere it creates. For the complete experience, enjoy the glass of plavac mali and an amazing story about its origin. (B,L)

The bike ride is split into two parts where nature, history, food, and culture blend into a perfect day tour. We will cycle next to lavender fields, AGER - UNESCO protected site, vineyards and many more. Expect more Mediterranean delicacies for both lunch and dinner. We will start the dinner with light seafood appetizers, followed by traditional gregada - made of mixed white fish. Do you know what the saying “the fish swims 3 times” means? And how does it taste?

We will cycle the island looking at the forest, the sea, the old villages, and the vineyards, as Korčula is home to some of the most unique and appreciated white wines in Croatia - Pošip and Grk. The biggest climb of the day will take us to a family-owned restaurant where tradition and the quality of the food are at their highest. Enjoy traditionally made pasta, salted anchovies, prosciutto and cheese - all locally made. Try fresh fish, shrimp, crabs, or maybe lobster - it all depends on the morning catch, and of course - enjoy local wine and homemade grappa. Very often called “small Dubrovnik” Korčula town is an example of a well-preserved ancient town that remained true to its local customs and traditions. In the afternoon, take your time to visit the old town, have a swim, or just enjoy the sunset and the cocktail at the tower bar. Later in the evening, a traditional Dalmatian meal will be served.

On our last day of the tour, we will make the most of it. Before we reach our final point we will stop at the Pelješac peninsula and explore the beautiful wine region well known for its steep hills and the traditional way of picking the grapes. On Pelješac, every house produces wine, whether as a family business or for family needs only. Great wine is found on every table and its quality is highly valued in everyday life. On our way to Dubrovnik, we will stop at a family-owned winery to walk the vineyards, get familiar with grape sorts on the peninsula, and taste a few locally produced wines. The amount of sun and elevation make this peninsula not only a wine paradise but an attractive destination for many activities for the summer holiday as well. On the mainland, we will visit Ston, the medieval town with the longest stone walls in Europe. The importance of the town lies in salt production and oyster farms.
