Must do when in Istria!

Leonie_K, Sep 2023

We were lucky enough to have a private tour with just the three of us (my mum, sister and I) and it was the loveliest experience. It was one of the highlights of our trip! Rene is a great host, explains everything with passion and with a joke and made you feel right at home. We met his nonna, mom and das as well and they were all super lovely. The tour is super informative and the tasting amazing, as it is all locally produced. 100% recommend!

Excellent trip, highly recommended

We took three generations, from ages six to eighty, who all enjoyed themselves. The staff couldn’t have been more welcoming, educational and informative. Stunning gardens, lovely food, and a really interesting explanation of how olives are grown and used. It was a hot day and they were very considerate of us, actively pausing in the shade and giving us lots of drinks. Very highly recommended!

Excellent introduction to olive oil production

Rene made us feel like we were part of the family during our visit. We were pleasantly surprised by the snacks provided and he gave us a very informative presentation. This was one of the highlights of our trip to Istria.

Kleinschalig maar super...

Kleinschalig maar super interessant om te zien, goede uitleg. Lekkere hapjes en drankjes van de lokale leveranciers. Zeer aan te raden

Romantik pur, ein toller Abend voller schöner Eindrücke.

Wir hatten einen unvergesslichen Abend. Die Führung über das Familienanwesen und den Olivenhain war sehr unterhaltsam aber auch informativ. Vielen Dank an André! Bei der anschließenden Verkostung des Olivenöls gab es auch andere istrische Spezialitäten sowie hausgemachten Wein, alles sehr köstlich und definitiv weiterzuempfehlen.
