With pickup and drop-off from the center of Split included, this experience makes it easy to enjoy the countryside without organizing your own transport.

Hear stories about local farming, the history of the region, and the effort it takes to produce olive oil and wine in this unique setting.
Continue into the production areas, where you will learn about the traditional process of making olive oil and wine. Marin explains the work behind each bottle, from harvesting and pressing to patience, storage, and tasting. You will also visit the rustic tavern, see old farming tools and wooden barrels, and get a feel for how generations of family knowledge are kept alive.
Along the way, meet the farm animals and enjoy simple, memorable moments like collecting eggs or feeding chickens. Guests often mention that this personal, hands-on side of the visit makes the experience feel less like a tour and more like being welcomed into someone’s home.
The experience finishes with a generous tasting of homemade products. Try local wine, olive oil, moonshine, liqueurs, cured meats, cheese and other farm specialties while enjoying views, conversation, and Marin’s stories about family, food, and Dalmatian life.

I’m Marin, your host and the proud caretaker of my family farm near Split. My family has owned this land since 1537 and I have been hosting guests since 2013. I love showing how much work, patience, and love goes into our olive oil, wine, and homemade food. When you visit, I want you to feel like a guest of the family, not a customer on a schedule. We will walk the land, talk about traditions, meet the animals, taste what we make, and hopefully laugh a little along the way!

If you want to escape the city, which can be suffocating, this experience is for you. Small farm perched high up. The host is very welcoming and friendly. The conversation flows and he is a real enthusiast. The view is magnificent and the food (especially the olive oil and red wine) is excellent.

Would highly recommend - Marin was a fantastic host, very knowledgeable and welcoming. The food, wine and olive oil from his farm were all delicious, which we enjoyed with lovely views of the Croatian countryside.

This was a very personal view into what a farm from 15th century Croatia looks like. We saw and tasted the freshest figs from the garden, learned about the olive harvests, and even saw grapes and pomegranates. We tasted an incredible charcuterie board with local meats and spreads. Was a truly amazing experience
Niels
This was a very enjoyable afternoon. It was an interesting exploration of the art of making olive oil and wine. In addition, it give you a peek into how rural life in Croatia used to be. The view from the hill was spectacular and enjoying a charcuterie board with homemade olive oil and wine was an excellent experience.
