Day Trips from Dubrovnik to Trsteno Arboretum

Leave the crowds of the city and set off on a tour that will take you in the TRUE Dalmatian countryside, west of Dubrovnik all the way to the town of Ston. Along the way, embrace the scent of the green Mediterranean vegetation in the combination of the crystal blue Adriatic sea, Elaphites Islands and white limestone mountains. We travel along the winding roads passing villages of traditional country life, stone quarries and olive groves guarded by dry stone walls. We reach Ston, the second most important town of the Republic of Dubrovnik. Explore the town, walk the old city walls, and visit the ancient salt-works, where salt has been harvested for centuries. In Ston Minor, we have the opportunity to taste the exquisite local oysters along with wine from the Pelješac Peninsula. On our way back we’ll make a brief stop at Trsteno to admire the giant old plane trees sitting there and watching history to the present day. Come and join us on an adventure in the way only the locals know!
