Dubrovnik Food & Wine Tour
Black risotto, peka and Pelješac wine — Dalmatian flavours in the walled city.
Dubrovnik's Adriatic cuisine deserves a dedicated half-day — this tour combines market insights, konoba tastings and Pelješac wine pairings with cruise-timed returns from Gruž.
Morning Old Town market walk (when operating) introduces local produce, olive oil and shellfish from Ston. Midday konoba lunch features black risotto, grilled fish or peka with Pošip or Plavac Mali wines.
Guides handle reservations on multi-ship days when walk-in tables vanish. Allow 60–90 minutes seated — Dalmatian lunch is unhurried.
Do not pair with full walls and cable car — culinary depth OR rampart walking as your anchor.

Getting there from the cruise port
Ships dock at Gruž (Gruz) commercial cruise terminal, 2.5 km from Pile Gate. Allow 10–15 minutes by taxi to the Old Town walls or 25–35 minutes on foot along the waterfront. Confirm your all-aboard time and keep a 60–90 minute buffer — summer queues at the city walls ticket office and Mount Srđ cable car can add 20–30 minutes to your return.
Tips for cruise passengers
- Flag dietary needs at booking
- Eat a light breakfast before multi-course tastings
