Savor Love & Flavor: A Private Food and Wine Tour in the Zadar Region

Escape into the heart of Croatia’s breathtaking countryside on a private food and wine tour designed for couples or groups seeking an intimate and unforgettable experience.

Whether you're celebrating your honeymoon or simply indulging in a romantic getaway, this journey through the flavors of the Zadar region will create lasting memories for you and your loved one. Your day begins in the picturesque Ravni Kotari countryside, where you’ll be welcomed into a charming agritourism estate. Here, under the warm Mediterranean sun, you’ll savor a lovingly prepared homemade feast of local specialties—artisan cheese, dry-cured ham, cherry strudel, and freshly squeezed lemon juice. As you sit together and soak in the tranquil surroundings, you’ll experience the authentic hospitality that makes Croatia so special.

The romance continues as we take you to the village of Polača, home to award-winning olive oil and wine producers. Hand in hand, you’ll wander through sun-kissed vineyards and olive groves before indulging in a guided tasting of exquisite wines and extra virgin olive oils. You’ll sample three carefully selected wines, each with its own unique story, along with two premium olive oils, accompanied by local delicacies such as Pag cheese, almonds, figs, and olives. The combination of rich flavors and breathtaking scenery creates a moment to cherish together. As the afternoon unfolds, we journey deeper into the countryside to a second family-owned estate near Benkovac, where a traditional peka feast awaits. This centuries-old cooking method, where meat is slow-roasted under an iron bell, results in a tender and flavorful dish that will delight your senses. As you sip on a few more glasses of organic wine, you’ll also indulge in a beloved local cake, a sweet and symbolic way to end a day filled with love and indulgence.

This isn't just a tour—it’s a sensory experience designed to bring you closer, to immerse you in the passion of Croatian gastronomy, and to create moments of connection and romance. With every bite, sip, and breathtaking view, you’ll fall in love all over again—not just with each other, but with the enchanting flavors and traditions of the Zadar region.
