My husband and I recently returned from our wine and walking trip. It was truly tremendous! We stayed in 3 different areas of Southern Croatia in 7 days. Never feeling hurried or rushed at any point. Our Tour Leader Marija was so caring all along the way. The hotels were excellent choices, perfect retreats after wonderful days in Vineyards and old towns. We would recommend taking another holiday with Green Worlds – Walk and Wine team.

It’s the kind of experience, that you feel very privileged to be a part of. The small tailor made group, is social and engaging. Plenty of time for self discovery, but the highlights of course are the wine tasting guided sessions. Delightful selections, always paired with great food, fabulous conversations and views. Croatia is a must-see country.

Sarah Klein (Hinsdale (USA))

We had a lovely time. Travelling through Dalmatia with your team. Our highlights were the glorious Dubrovnik, food and wine pairing on last evening. We also loved the time at the Rizman. A true paradise moment, to enjoy a glass of wine. Special mention of thanks to Brett and Maria our Tour Leaders.

I recently went on a weeks wine vacation with my friends through your company. The whole trip experience was put together incredibly well, thank you to Brett for organising our itinerary throughout Dalmatia.The vineyards and restaurants visited were superb choices. Everything was very well organised. If you are looking for a bespoke, luxury experience, I highly recommend Brett and his team.

We had a wonderful time. The weather was brilliant, so the walks were all pleasurable. Our favourite walking day, was over the Ston walls. We just loved the views, that we’re only bettered once at the winery. All the food and wine pairings were exceptional. The tasting sessions delivered by the family owners, gave so much depth to the events. Transportation was excellent, and the distances a lot shorter than expected, to cover so many areas. It was wonderful to be based at the Hotel Duce. Unpacked once and started to relax! If you’re looking for that balance of adventure and fun, and wishing to be in a social group, this wine and walking vacation is fabulous.

Thank you for a delightful and entertaining week in Croatia. Everything and more than expected! We travelled as two couples but enjoyed the small group environment. The walks were within our capabilities but we held our own with the food & wine! Loved the story of how the Zinfandel grape was proved to have originated from Croatia. We tried some lovely Croatian wines, my favourite was the Posip at Sikuli Winery & my husbands the Plavac Mali at Rizman. The final evening at the country estate vineyard was wonderful too. We could all feel the passion and warm hospitality. It was a great way to finish a thoroughly enjoyable week.

The Croatia Walk & Wine holiday was an exquisite week of fine food & wine and great company. The historical gems of Split, Ston & Sinj combined with the natural beauty of Pelejsac, Split, Imotski & Croatia’s hinterland made for a magical week. We discovered some wonderful wines, tried delicious authentic dishes and still had some time for personal explorations. Our driver and tour leaders were first class. It was a delightful week which I will whole heartedly recommend to friends and family.

We have done numerous gastronomic holidays across Europe over the years and we can firmly rate our Croatia trip as one of our best. The accommodation surpassed our expectations and it was wonderful being in a central base for the 7 nights. Each day was different and we felt the itinerary was well considered. The fine dining experiences were outstanding. Favourite winery was the Rizman. Favourite day maybe the last, in the hinterland countryside. Discovering some exciting Croatian wines was also an enormous amount of fun.

Clive & Pam Tilsly (Durham)

Croatia was spectacular. Each day was unique and inspiring. The Red & Blue Lakes were a wonder. The St Anthonys Canal Walk was a delight and Rizman winery location was astonishing. I would like to thank our tour leaders Marija & Barisa who offered the perfect blend of organisation, information 7 companionability.

Rosemary Rowe (Chester )

Whether you are a wine lover or not, I can highly recommend you to explore Dalmatia with this agency. I have to say it was one of the best culture and active tours we have tried so far. Thorough planning, well laid out schedules. The tour leaders organization was brilliant, making you feel so relaxed. The wine also helps the relaxed feeling too. The size of our group was 16 people, so we actually got to know each other really well. Superb like minded folk, so very pleasant over food and drinks. The tour guide Maria is knowledgeable and passionate about wines and traveling in her home county of Split. Extraordinary experiences, await. From gourmet gala dinners to majestic waterfalls and rolling vineyards. As the wine makers said, it takes time to find the perfect blend, but this walking and wine holiday has found it!

Roger Stenson (Richmond)

We wanted a one week getaway, that didn’t entail moving to multiple hotels, but wanted to see as much as possible. The tour was a small group of 14 people. Barisa our walk and wine tour guide was so informative and the vineyards we visited were absolutely incredible. The settings for the wine tastings and dinners were just stunning, each getting better as the week moved along. The walking is moderate, not for those seeking a purest walking or hiking trip. Highlights were visit Ston, the winery close to Split and the Krka National Park. We loved how accessible the region was, seeing so much and led with so much attention to detail. The itinerary is a splendid blend of culture, nature and fun. We all loved out time with you. Thank you!
