Overview
Tour Highlights

- Opportunity to meet three local producers of Korcula’s finest honey, wine, jams and olive oil
- Learn how various local products are grown and produced
- Taste the delicious white wine Grk which is almost exclusively grown in Lumbarda

Heading away from Korcula Town towards Lumbarda by bike, our first stop comes after no more than 15 minutes at one of the region’s top honey producers. Here we will learn how honey gets from the beehives to jars, followed by honey tasting.
Back on our bikes, we take to a picturesque country trail before finding ourselves at a top Grk producing winery where we will sit down and enjoy several wines, accompanied by Dalmatian snacks of ham, cheese and marinated fish.
Our final stop is a short cycle away and takes us to the home and gardens of our friend Ivan and his wife Ana. Here we will see where their fruits are grown before trying their award-winning jam selection, which is truly outstanding, along with homemade liquors, wine, sweet treats and olive oil. We round the taste extravaganza off with some crepe style pancakes filled with jam, before heading back to Korcula. The ride back is through some truly wonderful countryside and will take 30-45 minutes.
