Itinerary

Day 1

The journey begins with a scenic drive along the Adriatic coast, where the deep blue of the sea follows you toward the Pelješac Peninsula. As the landscape unfolds, stories of merchants, sailors, and the once-powerful Dubrovnik Republic set the tone for a day shaped by history and tradition.

In Ston, monumental stone walls rise above the town — silent guardians of a fortune once built on salt. Walking through the ancient salt pans, you step into a tradition more than 4,000 years old, discovering how this “white gold” secured wealth, power, and independence for the Republic of Dubrovnik.

From salt to sea, the experience continues in Mali Ston, a peaceful fishing village renowned for its oysters. At a charming waterfront restaurant, freshly harvested oysters are served at their source, paired with local wine and followed by a traditional Dalmatian-style lunch — simple, authentic, and deeply rooted in coastal life.

Before the return journey, enjoy unhurried free time in Ston. Wander along cobbled streets, relax in a sunlit square with a coffee, or walk a section of the legendary walls for panoramic views of salt pans, sea, and countryside — a moment to pause and take it all in.

You return enriched by a story written in stone, salt, and oyster shells — a true taste of Dalmatia, where heritage and flavor meet.
