We had a great dinner on this tour. Prior to dinner, we drove to a scenic overview of the old walled city. The restaurant is highly acclaimed, rated in top 10% in the world. The food was probably the best I have eaten in Croatia. A must do if you are a foodie.

Dino is great company and took me to a lovely restaurant by a stream where all the food and drinks are locally sourced. Couldn't be better and there's even a local dog called Kiko that visits all the patrons. A beautiful outing

Had an amazing experience with Dino on the gastro tour!! He took us to an exclusively homemade restaurant - we had homemade food wine and grappa!! It was also riverside in this beautiful valley landscape. Afterwords he took us to a winery open since the 1500’s. Couldn’t have asked for a better/more special day!!

My son and I recently traveled to Dubrovnik and did this food and wine tour with Magical Croatia. Dino was a fantastic host! Communication was excellent all the way through The drive along the coast and through the valley was beautiful. Wine tasting at the family winery was probably my favorite activity on our entire trip - it was truly lovely. And lunch too was delicious. We learned so much from Dino about Croatia and had a great time with him! Definitely recommend this tour!

My son and I had a terrific time with Dino! We absolutely loved it! Communication was excellent all the way through. The drive along the coast and into the valley in itself was worth everything. We thoroughly enjoyed the family winery and the wines (and other locals confirmed that this is the place to go!) - it was truly lovely. And the lunch was delicious. We learned so much from Dino and really had a great time with him! Definitely recommend this tour - all around it is very very good!

The lovely Dino took such good care of me on my beautiful gastro trip to Kanavle. The other participants had canceled but Dino kept to his word and continued the tour. I felt safe and comfortable as he showed me the beautiful countryside and a Surrounding vineyards. We stopped and he showed me an incredible upstairs view of Dubrovnik just As the sun was setting. And the food, This family restaurant was gorgeous. I could just write a whole Review on The cheese, Wine and butter, Yummy. We were a little early, so I took a long walk along the river Filling my camera with a ton of photos.. I was picked up from my apartment and dropped right off at my apartment for a lovely beautiful day. Definitely book this tour if you get a chance. Thank you Dino.

On our way to Dubrovnik we were thinking what to do and what to eat in this beautiful city. At the last minute we found this perfect company which gave us unforgettable experience. The guide Dino pick up us and drove us to suburban part of town Dubrovnik called Konavle. It was really beautiful. Perfect nature, lot of animals and fresh air. Panorama view was absolutely fantastic. We were charmed. After a very comfortable ride in luxury car Dino took us to try some perfect wine and cheese. Oh my God, I can not forget the taste of that wine. I bought it for myself to take it home. We met donkeys and other domestic animals. After that we went on lunch at family restaurant and we really enjoyed. Really good food, very professional and happy guide, perfect atmosphere and only good memories for us. All good about this company and Dino. We are coming back, promise!

This tour was fantastic. We really enjoyed in Konavle and Dino was a perfect guide. He showed us everything and tell us a lot of Konavle history and culture. He is really good with people and he is very professional. After the tour he showed us a panoramic view of Dubrovnik and that was amazing. We really appreciate his work and his effort to make our tour perfect. Food was brilliant, place was brilliant and friendly Dino was brilliant. Five stars to this company and guide. If you want a perfect day in Dubrovnik, call this company.

The winery and restaurant were wonderful, but the tour guide/operator Dino was not. He had an extremely abrasive personality with very strong opinions (some racist and involved religion quite a bit) that made it hard to have a good time when we were with him. We expected to learn at least a bit of history or facts about the region, but he said his job is not to be a tour guide. This was interesting because later on he tried to sell us another tour where he said he would tell us all about history.
There was only my husband and I on the tour, but he didn’t bother to learn either of our names and called me “lady” the whole time. We definitely made the best of things and enjoyed the parts when he wasn’t around, but we were eager to be done with the tour as soon as possible.
Also he never reached out prior to the tour to discuss pickup and there was miscommunication about timing. I was always the one calling to figure out details. The booking said the tour begins at 11:00. When I called the day before, he said he would pick us up at 10:00. Then the day of at 10:00, he said it would actually be 12:00. I don’t know if he would have even made contact with us if I didn’t take the lead and he was really eager to get off the phone when I called.
Customer service could definitely use some work on Dino’s end. The only reason I rated two stars instead of one is because the winery employee was truly great and the restaurant was beautiful with friendly service.

Fantastic day out with Dino, who was a terrific host. Very knowledgeable about his country & local culture.
The vineyard - Bataro and the owners very welcoming. Served us traditional liqueurs, homemade cheese, meats, olive oil with a tasty side salad.
Dino then took us to a local restaurant by the river, very cool place under the bridge. Local lamb & chicken cooked under a bell with sides, wine & desert.
You do not need breakfast 😆
Well worth the money, pickup, AC in mini van, local knowledge & drop off. Highly recommend.
Oli & Michelle
