Peljesac Peninsula & Korcula Island Day-Trip from Dubrovnik

Our speed boat pilot and tour guide were excellent. It was a first time experience for us island hopping.

Interesting tour. Good to have the chance to see Ston. 3 hours in Korcula was just right. Wine tasting was fun. Guide was knowledgeable and considerate.

The tour was advertised as 12 hours, but I was dropped off at around 10 hours, 15 minutes, which means we might have spent more than just one hour in Ston, which is not much time to see the famous City Walls, etc. Korcula and the wine tasting were fun though. And, my reservation said I would be picked up at my guesthouse, but I was notified one day before that I would need to go to a larger hotel 10 minutes walk from my guesthouse, on a busy road with no sidewalks.

Nos recogió una furgoneta para 6 pax. el guia (Drazan) super amable y contándonos un montón de cosas mientras, las paradas fueron: Ston: impresionan sus murallas que por desgracia no tuvimos tiempo de ver por dentro y las salinas, después furgoneta de nuevo viendo las Panorámicas de la península de Pelješac muy bonitas e intersantes historias, para coger un taxi board a la isla de Korčula: sube al campanario y disfruta de la ciudad de Marco Polo y date un baño en alguna cala, taxi board de nuevo para coger la furgoneta e ir a hacer una cata de vinos locales en Potomje: es interesante aunque me quedo con los vinos de España :) Después de los vinos fuimos a un criadero de ostras y mejllones que compramos y tuvimos la suerte de probar directos del agua, esta experiencia y lo que lo rodea así como el entrañable matrimonio que lo regenta fue de lo mejor (créeme es digno de ver). Buena compañía, conductor/guía de 10 y una excursión que te adentra en la cultura de la zona. Recomendable.

Zak was our guide and he was a good one. A very relax day and very chilling wandering in the old streets, having oysters by the sea. Such a good day!

Todo muy bien, aunque me habría encantado tener más tiempo en Stom, sólo 40 minutos no alcanzan para poder admirar las segundas murallas más largas del mundo después de la Muralla China, tampoco del pueblo, escasamente alcanza el tiempo para ir al baño y tomar un refrigerio.

Escursione molto carina, sia per i luoghi che per il gruppo di persone. La guoda/autista è stato molto professionale, disponibile e gentile.

Retki oli kiva ja monipuolinen. Omaa aikaa oli Stonissa ja Korculassa juuri sopivasti. Olisimme toivoneet enemmän tietoa alueesta ja luonnosta oppaalta bussimatkojen aikana. Opas oli suurimman osan ajasta hiljaa. Olisimme myös toivoneet ohjeita esim. Korculassa, että olisimme löytäneet Marco Polon kotitalolle. Korcula oli kyllä kaikin tavoin ihana paikka, joten ei haitannut vaikka emme nähneet Polon taloa.

Our driver/guide Držen was amazing, very informative and extremely professional, he was the best part of the tour. For the first time in a long series of unfortunate experiences there was enough time to visit the sites. But for some reason the trip was set to last much longer (12 hours instead of just 10) so maybe an additional stop at the Arboretum (which was right on our route) could have been included. Also, as a small side note, it would be more helpful to stop for toilets at some gas station or something instead of having to pay for it or having to buy something at some restaurant or bar.

small group and organized schedule. Lovely guide had some flexibility of schedule. We can enjoy full of free time at all stops. however if you need escorting places and detail explanations, this tour is not suitable. we have to find a way to enjoy by ourselves. Ston and Korcula is simple town. So anybody enjoy by themselves. In addition, winery where we went is popular but not high-end class. It is shabby. I could not enjoy real “posip wine” than I expected.

Ha sido una muy buena experiencia. Fantastica organizacion y predisposicion de Lidia, la guia, y el conductor del minibus. Los tiempos dedicados a cada sitio y alguna improvisacion super acertada. 100% recomendable. Quizas la unica cosa a comentar es que el trayecto se hace algo largo y a mejorar, la distancia entre filas de asientos resulta justa para personas a partir de una altura de 1,8m.

The day trip was very interesting, the town Ston and island Korcula are beautiful. The wine tasting is very fun. We made a stop on the way back at a mussel and oysters farm/restaurant which was really delicious and a high light of the trip. The guide was very engaged and speaks great English and Spanish

Small group of 7. Organisation of the trip was good. A map was provided via email for the bus pick up point. Vladimir our driver and guide was knowledgeable and helpful. Ston was a small town with rich history. Korcula is a very beautiful island and 3 hrs is sufficient to go around the island on your own and have a nice meal. There are many restaurants by the coast which is a nice place to have lunch. I was told by another member of the group that most restaurants don’t serve food after 1pm. We ate around noon so we had no problems. We managed to visit Marco Polo’s house which was under renovation. The workmen actually closed the gates but saw us lingering outside and opened the door for us to go in and view. One of them tried to tell us (I think) that the house is open only in the mornings. Wine tasting after Korcula was excellent. One of the wines we tasted won a silver award in 2018. We had a tour of the wine cellar. All in all, the trip was excellent and very enjoyable.

A beautiful island and a scenic trip. Not a massive amount to do in the old town. Some nice restaurants and shops. I felt like I had a little too much time. The stop at Ston was relatively uneventful. The highlight for me was hearing about the history of the area and then recognizing the Venetian influences.

The guide was very good and full of information. The minivan was new and comfortable

Kurkula

Muy buena la visita. La guía Maia excelente .Muchas gracias por estar atenta a todos y a todo. Felicitaciones y gracias!!!

This is a day out you really wouldn't want to miss out on. We were picked up at our hotel and so pleased to find that it was more like a private tour, there was only 8 of us. So much better to travel this way as we got to know our fellow travelers. Our driver Kris was fantastic, so knowledgeable and friendly. The visit to a local winery on the way back was the perfect end to a perfect day!

Nos enviaron un email indicandonos la hora y el lugar de recogida, cosa que puede ser complicada si no tienes roaming activado. En otros tours reservados llamaban para quedar los detalles de recogida. Nos dijeron que iríamos con una compañía y al final cuando ubicamos al chófer de esa compañía (porque tienes que buscarlo tú, quedan todas las compañías en el mismo punto de encuentro en el Old Town y van a diferentes destinos, así que toca ir preguntando uno a uno a ver si es el que te toca) nos dijo que al final él no tenía espacio en la van y que pasaría otro compañero suyo a recogernos en otra van. Al final fue un bus de más de 30 personas. Todo DEMASIADO desorganizado. Las vistas de la península y la isla son preciosas, merece la pena a pesar del agobio que supone utilizar cualquier touroperador de Dubrovnik.

Un tour muy interesante y divertido. La zona preciosa. La guia super amable.

Bien, aunque me hubiese gustado la degustacion de vinos durase mas tiempo.

Excursión muy interesante, principalmente por su paisaje y actividades. Excelente Guía (Olga) y conductor (Ivan), ambos muy amables y profesionales. Deficiente vehículo: Furgoneta de 14 plazas muy justas, para un grupo de 13 personas (5 hombres de más de 1,85 m y 3 mujeres con altura superior a 1,70 M). Ha resultado una tortura viajar durante horas en esas condiciones.
