Goran thank you for the great and interesting explanations. You are explaining all the thing which are worth to know about bees that everyone will remember you. I learned a lot of new things about bees. Thank you!

We loved the honey farm, 3rd generation dedicated bee keepers who really care about what they do, really enjoyed talking to the owners about their philosophy of beekeeping. Some great varieties of honey and products to try and buy, we came away with quite a lot! I will be sending some honey from our locality in Buckinghamshire, UK. Caroline and Stephen

We wanted to visit one of the smaller islands from Split for the day and came across this experience on Tripadvisor. I honestly think it was one of the best things we did while in Croatia. We caught the car ferry over to Solta and were met off the ferry by Goran who drove us up to his home. He was so incredibly friendly that we felt at ease from the start. His enthusiasm for bees is infectious and the talk he gives is very entertaining and fascinating. You don’t have to have any knowledge of bees to enjoy it. Afterwards you get to participate in collecting and preparing your own pot of complimentary honey. Families, couples, single visitors will be welcomed by Goran who simply loves to talk about his bees and share his knowledge. Such a nice man and such a great thing to do!

We spent a night on our yacht, moored in Rogac, on Solta - also accessible via Jadrolinija ferry from Split - and took the lovely (though steep) walk up to the village of Grohote to meet our friends who had brought bikes on the ferry and had cycled to Maslinica. We met in the ancient village of Grohote and enjoyed the back streets walk to Tvrdic Honey, the “last beekeeper on Solta” - what an informative and entertaining visit we had in an outside seating area (Goran’s “classroom”) and also in the presentation room. We all left with at least one jar of delicious sage or rosemary honey and an informed knowledge of how and why we MUST protect the bees 🐝- go visit Goran & his wife if you can!

Great experience on Solta island where you can learn a lot about bees and honey. Hosts are warm and wonderful people. Best honey by far! See you next year!

Best exeperience you'll have during your visit to the island. Goran is professional but also charming, can't recommed it enough

What a great experience to learn so much about bees on the charming island of Solta with Tvrdic. Afterwards he and his wife hosted us for a wonderful lunch. We appreciated their hospitality and all information about bees.

One of the most amazing experiences of our two week trip to Croatia. Groan and his wife are amazing people. Our time there was educational, inspirational, and definitely memorable. The food and honey was delicious. This place is not to be missed!!

Beekeepers for a day. Goran was amazing!!! So much information on bees and beekeeping. I am no longer afraid of bees. He is a kind, warm man who truly cares about his bees and wants to share this with people. AMAZING!

Thanks for a very interesting, funny and informative lesson. You told us something that we will remember back home. You opened our eyes Best wishes Ditte and Jørgen

We stayed in the B&B they run which has been amazing. The honey experience was so insightful and it’s great to see Gorran’s passion for bees! If you visit solta you must go and experience the bee demonstration and honey tasting. Also if you want to stay on Solta there isn’t a better place to stay than their B&B found on Airbnb. The accommodation is idyllic and the pool area is surrounded by lavender and olive trees. Gorran brought around two pieces of a delicious cherry cake that his wife had made which was amazing. His advise about the island was fantastic. The local restaurant is incredible and walking distance. Hire a moped and see the island!he will pick you up from your apartment and take you to the rental place. Would recommend to anyone!!

Goran and his wife are passionate about their bees and doing their part to make sure bees survive so humans survive. We all learned a lot about the magnificent workings of a bee hive and the importance of protecting our bees. The kids were fascinated!

Came here as part of a group and found Goran was just engaging knowledgeable and is here to talk about the importance of bees and all the products that are produced not just honey. Health benefits are enormous do yourself a favour and visit

We stopped here as part of our Solta island bike tour. Goran is so passionate about bees and honey. He took the time to explain the whole honey making process. Tasting the different honey he made was also interesting. We loved his map of all of the honey samples he has received from all over the world. We are sending some local honey to him to add to his collection.

My wife and I were were struck immediately by Goran - words cannot fully explain his passion and advocacy for bees. We were the only two visiting that day and we fell into a very easy discussion on bees, hive maintenance, and honey production. Goran was enthusiastic, patient, and encouraging - pushing us to seriously consider taking up beekeeping even though we live in NYC. before we knew it, we had spent 3 hours with Goran and hadn't even tasted his honey yet. Spoiler alert, it was delicious. The sage honey was good but the lavender really stood out in its mild and refreshing taste. Then the real treat. Goran had some fresh honeycomb and invited us to taste. Holy jeez was it delicious. It was a shame he didn't have enough to sell. Still, we bought several jars of honey and his special pollen / honey blend. Goran also noticed that my wife had a minor sore throat and gave her a small spray of bee propolis to use. Our visit was the start of a fantastic day on Solta and definitely one of the highlights of our week in Croatia.
