Where to Picnic and Explore Dubrovnik

Perfect for families. Kids will love the peacocks that roam free. Or they will love your lunch..

Your piknik comes with a nifty map, and a story of the island’s incredible legend and turbulent past.

RUSTIK FANTASTIC MAGIC VALLEY PIKNIK TOUR

in the stunning Makarska Riviera region

A unique experience option for those visiting or passing along the Makarska Riviera. If you are driving the gorgeous coastal road coast between Split and Dubrovnik, or travelling to or from HVAR island via Drvenik port and village, consider adding a stop for a piknik in the old village and a walk in the hills set on the hills of Biokovo high above the sparkling coast.

This sweeping valley is packed with layers of history, and the tiny village where Piknik is based is a semi abandoned pocket of houses tucked in the hills - and that is where we want to you visit us!

Join us on the terrace for a tasting and celebration of our first season of olive oil, honey and rakija made by our neighbours, and a lovely table of local specialties. We will take a scenic walk to explore the incredible stories of lives lived up here long ago, history and legends that are tucked into this valley. Learn about ancient medieval Illyrian tombstones, climb to the ruins of a hilltop fort and site of a famous battle, tour the olive grove with incredible valley views that stretch across the Adriatic channel to Hvar and the Peljesac peninsula.

A more challenging guided hike can be booked up to the towering ridge along a historic trading route, or a longer walk along the olive groves roads and other abandoned hamlets.

INFO

This special experience is available upon request, booked in advance at least a few days prior, to check our availability. But feel free to request at short notice, and if we are around we are happy to have you!

Price upon request depending on your wishes of activity but catch the opening season super deals!

From Dubrovnik approx 2hrs 15 min

You can hop over from Peljesac peninsula at Trpanj ferry to Ploce - then it is 30 minutes from Ploce to Drvenik.

PICNIC LOVE and MEMORIES

HANDS DOWN THE HIGHLIGHT OF OUR TRIP

"The piknik was hands down the highlight of our trip. Your food was delicious, the wine was nice and smooth and the set up was perfect.  We ate and ate and ate and had a wonderful time in the area you suggested.  Thank you again for going above and beyond." Gene and Kristin, Australia

"We had a wonderful time and the food was amazing.  The desserts were fabulous I think my husband ate all the chocolate cake himself.  The lemonade was one of our favorite things.  Thank you so much for making it a great day out. " M & S from New Zealand 

GREAT LAST DAY IN CROATIA!

“The food and wine is just superb and we loved every aspect of it! The piknik was such a wonderful way to closeout our last day in Croatia and the spot you told us about could not have been better!!! We loved all of it! The food was wonderful and such a complete experience! Your rose hips lemonade was such a palette cleanser OY!!...we just can't say enough about the whole experience. Thank you for everything! :) As a side note.. Its a brilliant idea....its a really brilliant concept and you do it well!! :) nuff said! 

WE COULD TASTE THE LOVE

"When I was younger, and we ate something special that someone had prepared, we would say that we could taste the love that was used to prepare that food.  That was certainly true with our piknik."  Paul C. USA

"Now to the meal itself. We got out our menu and wow it was fabulous! There were lots of little boxes and it was great to open them up to reveal their delicious contents. The tiffin box was so great! A lovely touch.  Everything was fresh and a great deal of thought had gone into the ingredients.. so you felt at least you were getting real local food.  Truly perfect". 

"Everything was wonderful.  The highlights for me were (1) the pork tenderloin with the delicious cheese, fig jam and pear slices: and (2) the fresh pressed olive oil - I never tasted anything like that!.. and (2) the variety of different foods you provided that allowed us to enjoy so many different foods (and drinks)." Paul C. USA

GEORGE HAD A CAST ON HIS LEG BUT STILL WENT TO THE ISLAND

"It was so lovely, the location, sites, the art by the well you told me about, and of course eating your delicious Piknik lunch seaside!   Loved all the food and drink, just wish I could have eaten it all!  Took what I could, also enjoyed feeding the peacocks and rabbits.  Thanks again, wonderful to meet you and all the best!"  George, USA

"It was one of the best parts of our entire European trip! Thank you! Delish!" Anna, Australia

WE LIKED THAT YOU SEEMED AS EXCITED TO HAVE MADE IT AS WE WERE TO RECEIVE IT

"Thanks again for the wonderful picnic, which was full of delicious surprises. Jess and I loved unpacking it to find all the goodies and we also liked that you seemed as excited to have made it as we were to receive it! We spent a good long time under the olives gorging until we could go no further." Jess, New Zealand

"The piknik was amazing!!! Perfect weather sitting in the olive grove with the bunnies and the peacocks. Went for a swim after and fell asleep on the rocks. Wow!! The food and wine you prepared was something else and we were blown away!! Thank you so much for everything and all the tips!! - some happy Canadians

HIKE AND PICNIC ON SRD
