About this activity

Explore Pelješac peninsula's legendary Dingač wine region on a 3.5-hour guided tour from Dubrovnik, visiting family-run wineries that craft Croatia's most celebrated deep-red wines using indigenous varieties. Combine wine tastings with a historic walking tour of Ston, a medieval salt-trading town ringed by 14th-century fortification walls.

Dingač is one of the most well-known Croatian wines. Its deep ruby red colour reflects the identity of the environment as well as the character of the people who live on Pelješac. Love is in the air – and in the glass.

Pelješac is a 65 km long peninsula. And Ston is the biggest city at which you will have time to explore it and its ancient picturesque streets. Ston has been a salt production place since the times of Republic of Dubrovnik and it is surrounded by the great walls (second longest just after the Great Wall of China). If you decide to take a walk to the walls you will have to purchase a ticket that is not included in this tour.

Many different families have been turning grapes into wine for decades there, perfecting the tastes and inventing new trends. Every single one of them has its own specification and taste. We show you the most exceptional flavors created by indigenous wine varieties on your favorite wine trip.
