TASTEFUL CROATIA
OLIVE OIL-MAKING EXPERIENCE

What are we going to do?

Harvest, have fun, make, and taste.

It's all about choosing to respect the local people, their cultures, economies and the environment. Trying to do something yourself like harvesting and then making food is an enriching experience that stays forever. You'll meet local people and get to know the place, eat local food and drink local wine and brews.

We are going to organise all the logistics and stay at one of our beautiful villas.    

 

Best suited to whom?  

This is a small group adventure and as such it is best suited to a group of friends and families who want to taste the real experience of harvesting olives and making olive oil. You are welcome to join us.

​

Where are we situated?

We are situated in Zadar and nearby villages Diklo and Kožino. You can choose between one of our villas.
