Top Istria Unique Experiences

Discover the wine of Croatia’s Istrian peninsula with this wine tour from Rovinj and Pula. You’ll travel to three wineries in a small group that’s limited to just eight people for an intimate tour of wine tasting and eating. Learn about the local wine and growing techniques, then sit down for a traditional Istrian meal before your journey back.

Instead of just sampling Istrian food specialties at a restaurant, this comprehensive foodie adventure allows you to gain a new appreciation of the effort that goes into local food and wine production, with behind-the-scenes experiences and guided tastings. Join a guide and his dogs for a truffle-hunting session in a forest, visit a wine cellar to try local wines, and round off the trip with a guided olive oil tasting.

Many of Istria’s acclaimed wineries lie near to Porec, but visiting them is difficult without a rental car. This small-group tour steps up: with a minivan and driver-guide to take you to three estates for tastings, so you needn’t worry about driving. Admire the countryside, sample up to five wines at each of two stops, and enjoy tastings paired with a meal at the third. Hotel pickup and drop-off included.
