Loved our tour with Agi. We did the Istrian Corners tour. The tour included two great wineries which also served extensive cheese / bread / meat plates as well as a wonderful dinner at a phenomenal restaurant. While the wine and food were great, the real highlight was Agi. Her detailed knowledge of history of the area was fascinating as she took us to various lookout points and old towns. We highly recommend her tours!

We had a wonderful experience! All of our hosts were personable, knowledgeable and friendly. They all went over and above to show us Istria and some of the fine wines produced. If you have a chance, this is the wine experience to sample

What a wonderful introduction to the gourmet offerings of Istria! Our tour guide, Agnieska, made the day a treat with her knowledge and love of the region. We enjoyed all of the stops along the way - the view of Motovun, olive oil experience, truffle hunting, and brandy and wine tasting. What more could could you ask for in a tour!

Amazing day showing off the best of Istria. Great scenic stops at the olive oil, Motovun and Winery. Agi truly loves the region and its history. Truffle hunting was amazing but make sure you bring good shoes for hiking. We went on the "hard trail" and it involved a lot more off trail adventures than I was expecting, way more than just a walk in the woods. We found two truffles! This area is absolutely beautiful and having a knowledgable guide was fun and made it very relaxing. Overall it was an incredible day I would recommend to anyone!

One of our highlights of our trip would be this tour. What a great day. Our tour guide was so knowledgeable of this region. She took us olive oil tasting, truffle hunting and wine tasting. We ate and drink the yummy food of the Istria region all day. This is definitely a tour that you need to do!!!!!

The trip was beautiful and Agnieszka's knowledge of the area and history helped to make the experience incredible. The Istrian countryside is breath taking and she knew the geography well, including small historic towns. The truffle hunting excursion eith the dog was very unique and fun. The olive oil tour and tasting was great. The wine tasting overlooking the countryside at Rossi was an incredible highlight. Would definitely recommend this excursion. Thank you Agnieszka for such a wonderful day!

One of the best tours I’ve ever been on! Agi took my boyfriend and I throughout Istria for the day. She went above and beyond the itinerary and offered to add in extra stops along the way for views and pictures. We went to Ipsa for olive oil tasting and snacks. They were almost never ending with the various snacks brought out and they also had us sample three types of wines. Next stop was Karlic for some truffle hunting. There they taught us all you could ever know about truffles, and the history of their truffle business. We were also served various snacks with truffles as well as home made scrambled truffle eggs and donuts with “trufella” (chocolate truffle). We were able to watch them make the eggs and donuts as if we were in a live cooking show. After we ate more truffle snacks than you could imagine, we went on the hunt with their professional truffle hunting dogs. We spent about 45 minutes in the forest with the dogs. I would recommend sneakers for this part because although it’s not strenuous, the trail is somewhat steep. At the end of our hunt Agi met us with the car to take us to Motovun where we walked the city walls. Our last stop was Matosevic Winery. We were greeted with a welcome glass of white wine to sip on while learning all about their various wines and the wine making process. Lastly we sampled 7 wines while enjoying some charcuteries. During the drive between stops Agi taught us all about the history of Istria and the rest of Croatia. This tour is worth every penny!

We were thoroughly impressed with the day Agnieszka put together for us. We have been fortunate enough to experience private experiences across the major wine regions across France, Italy and Spain and we were pleasantly surprised with the diversity of experiences she created for us in northern Croatia. Not only did she she put together an amazing day of olive oil/wine tasting and truffle hunting, but the car rides in between visits were enriching educational experiences where she helped provide historical and cultural context to our experiences. The truffle hunting portion of the day was truly unique to anything thing else we’ve done in Europe...who doesn’t love an afternoon of hanging out with dogs and having a meal showered in truffles? The olive oil was among the best we’ve tasted in the region and very educational to learn the different extraction techniques used across countries. Agnieszka also has a number of great connections in the up and coming Croatian wine scene which is a must do for wine lovers who enjoy big body reds and high character whites.

We booked the half-day wine tour visiting Benvenuti in Kaldir and Matosević in Krunčići. Our guide Agnieszka picked us up in Rovinj at 9:30 and we spent the entire day together. She was very helpful and informative, sending information in advance over email and had great knowledge about the wines and vineyard culture once we arrived at each winemaker. It was great to spend the day with a local who was so passionate about wine and could suggest other wineries to go to on our own after the tour. The tour itself was very comprehensive and we enjoyed visiting 2 boutique family-run wineries. Each winery had multiple glasses of wine along with small snacks of cheese, meat, and olive oil. In between each visit we also stopped at scenic view points to take pictures of towns such as Motovun and Pazin. Agnieszka was helpful throughout the day answering questions. Even after our tour we kept in touch and she went above and beyond by helping us to figure out how to bring a few bottles of wine back home with us. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone who is interested in wine and seeing the surrounding areas of Istria.

We selected this wine tour based on its reputation. We had the most amazing experience of our entire month long trip. Agnieszka is an outstanding guide and conducted the most complete and informative tour we have ever had in Europe, and we have been traveling there yearly for over 40 years. It was a complete day of joy. Food and wine plus the many sights were the best and made better with Angie's commentary. Highly recommend her and this tour to all serious travelers. Myrna and Frank

I wanted to explore the Istrian wine region despite having no prior experience. This tour was perfect - we visited some of the best wineries in the region, and my host was very friendly and informative. I recommend this tour very highly!

A MUST DO TOUR!! A friend and I planned this tour a couple of months prior to visiting Croatia. Rovinj was the 1st town we stayed in during our 2 week vacation. We opted for the day long Wine & Truffle tour. From the get go, Agnieszka was very prompt to answering any questions, as well as customizing our tour to our desired time. Mind you, this was nearly 2 months prior to our trip. This tour FAR exceeded our expectations. Between the carefully chosen wineries, the complimentary charcuterie boards and her knowledge of the region... there was never a dull moment. Agnieszka even went out of her way to take us to a remote, family owned olive oil vineyard because we showed interest in purchasing some olive oil in the Istria region. What we appreciated most is that this was a laid-back, no pressure, enjoyable experience. We did buy multiple bottles of wine and olive oil each ... simply bc we LOVED it. Our Truffle lunch: during our booking we expressed our love for Truffles. Again, Agnieszka picked the PERFECT restaurant that included all things truffle. We ate to our hearts content ! Although our tour went a bit over our booked time, at no point did we feel rushed. Another added BONUS: based on the conversation we had throughout the day ...Agnieszka offered & followed through with a personalized email of a list (a VERY long & thought out list) of vineyards and restaurants to visit during our entire 2 week stay along the Croatian coast. This was a much welcomed surprise as both my friend and I are both food and wine lovers!! I cannot express enough how much we enjoyed our day. This perfect day in Rovijn will definitely be a memorable one. Thank you Agnieszka for making this such a positive experience for us. We look forward to sending you many referrals from the USA!

This day tour was perfectly set up. Our small group first had a welcome drink and left to see the wineyards. The yards look beautiful, especially with the weather, it's hot. During the tour we tried some more wines until we got back to the actual tasting and explanation how they get the wine that fruty. The white wine is very delicious and we got two bottles for our friends back home.

My husband and I joined another couple for a great day of wine tours with Mihaela. We first visited Misal winery. This winery makes only sparkling wines. We were able to visit the bottling area and were taught about the process of making the sparkling wine. The next winery was a small family winery, Clio. This was a bonus winery as we were meeting with another couple and Agnieszka, Mihaela's tour guide partner. We then visited the beautiful hilltop town of Groznjan. We were able to wander around the small streets filled with artist shops. Our next stop was Kabola where wines are aged in amphorae. Lunch was a 4 course feast at local restaurant. Our final stop was Kozlovic, with beautiful views of the surrounding area. At each winery we were given full explanations of the wine making process, fed delightful snacks, and treated as treasured guests. Mihaela gave interesting explanations and commentary throughout the day. The van was very comfortable and Mihaela was a great driver. Mihaela and Agnieszka were wonderful and knowledgeable tour guides and we appreciated the opportunity to experience Istria with them.

We booked a 3 winery tasting with Agnieszka to be able to learn about Istria. The tour was amazing! Mihaela picked us up from Motovun where we were staying and took us to our first winery, then we explored the town of Groznjan. It was a beautiful artist town with beautiful views and picturesque streets. After another winery we had a 4-course lunch and wrapped up the day with our final winery. All the wineries were beautiful, unique, and had delicious wines that are specific to the Istrian region. We also had snacks of cheeses, meats, bread and olive oil and more at each winery. The lunch was delicious and somewhere we wouldn’t have found on our own. I would highly recommend booking a tour, Mihaela and Agnieszka made the day memorable and it was one of the best days of our trip! Istria is a beautiful area to explore and it was wonderful to be able to try the amazing wines and olive oil with knowledgeable tour guides!
