Authentically cooked traditional Croatian meal in a wonderful farmhouse setting. Divo Vukorep was the perfect chef and host.

Overview

Just south of Dubrovnik is the beautiful Konavle region, which hosts various traditional villages. You'll join a local family at their farm in the little village of Cilipi. After touring the farm and getting to know your hosts, you'll learn how to prepare a delicious, authentic Croatian peka meal, which is cooked under an iron dome. Enjoy homemade cheese, lots of fresh vegetables cultivated around the house, wine, olive oil, and, mostly, the company of the family. In addition, this experience allows you to learn about Croatian culture directly from the locals!

Dora drove us and she was fun to spend 4 hours with. Another local, she knew the area well. Cavtat was very cute, and we grabbed a coffee by the port. The Croatian meal was delicious, fresh and filling. The host didn't speak English very well, but Dora did. We got a tour of the kitchen and farmhouse which was nice. Read more

The meal at the farm itself was delcious and the setting was beautiful. The tour was fine, but it didn't include a visit to the artist's home or the museum as advertised and we were a little disappointed about that. Read more

Quality of Experience
Including the art aspects of the tours as advertised. Also the communication between the driver, guide, and farmer/restauranteur could be improved.
Food
The meal itself was delicious and we really enjoyed it.

The driver was not very good. He didn't speak any English at all. He appeared to be in a rush to return home. The guide was good but the tour didn't include the things that were advertised that we were most interested in.

After a short drive from Dubrovnik, we had a lovely walking tour of Cavtat. We learned about the city's history, its relationship with Dubrovnik, and took in some gorgeous sights. We then took another short drive to a family farm near Čilipi, and had an experience that I don't think I'll ever forget. Our host shared area history, family stories, and treated us to a delicious meal. The view was divine. Read more
