Wine Safari
On this safari there will be no lions, zebras and giraffes. However, "locals" have prepared a special experience for you - the wine safari. We will take you through spacious vineyards, where you will taste homemade delicacies, but we will not forget to stop by friends, the Brda wine makers, where you will find out first-hand what the secret of the magical taste of our top quality wines is.
Just take your time, and we will take care of everything else.
