Korcula Buggy Safari Tour: Beaches, Backroads & Wine Tastings
Description
Most Korčula tours show you the island from a bus window. This one puts you in the driver's seat — literally. Can-Am buggies, back roads that no tour bus reaches, two beaches with completely different characters — sandy Vela Przina or the intimate rocky cove of Pejton — and a local produce tasting: wines, honey, jams, olive oil. Free pickup & drop off included within 5km of Korčula town. And if you want to keep the beach day going, we'll drop you off (free of charge) at your favourite beach stop after the tour. The best of Korčula in one trip. Children under 12 at half price.

Fantastic morning driving ATV’s and seeing some of the island and then a wonderful lunch and tour of their family home. Love the liqueurs and the videos and the warm hospitality
This was the absolute highlight of the trip/island! It was a blast driving around the island. There was plenty of time at the stops and ending at the winery was great. The guides were friendly and informative.
We booked this quad tour expecting a scenic adventure with two coastal viewpoint stops, as advertised. Unfortunately, the experience fell far short of what was promised. The biggest disappointment was that there were no viewpoint stops at all. The guide explained this was due to the size of the group, which says enough about how poorly the tour is organised. If your marketing promises scenic viewpoints, they should be included regardless of group size. The group was simply too large for a smooth or enjoyable experience. Instead of feeling like an adventure, it felt like following a long convoy of quads. The only stop was a beach for around 30 minutes, which is hardly enough time to do anything except order a drink before being told to leave again. It would honestly have been better not to stop there at all and spend more time riding. At €70 per person, this tour is a complete rip-off for what you actually get. You're paying for an experience that isn't delivered. There are far better ways to explore Korčula than spending this much money on an overcrowded, poorly organised tour. I wouldn't recommend this company unless they drastically reduce group sizes and start delivering the itinerary they advertise. I wish they would have offered the private tour which we actually wanted but no details were provide when booking.
Thank you for sharing your feedback, we are genuinely sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations. We would first like to clarify what happened and ask you to please contact us directly by email or phone, providing the date of your tour and, if possible, the names of the guides you were with. We would like to investigate this properly and understand why the advertised itinerary was not followed. The two scenic viewpoint stops are part of the tour itinerary and should have been included regardless of group size. If they were skipped, this is absolutely not acceptable and not how we run our tours and business. From your description, it appears that you booked our 2-hour long afternoon buggy tour, rather than our regular 4-hour long morning buggy safari. The afternoon tour is specifically designed as a shorter experience and does include two scenic viewpoint stops, as well as approximately 30 minutes at a beach for a quick refreshment, drink, or swim. Because the tour is only two hours long, the itinerary is structured to allow us to cover all of the planned elements, and it is therefore not possible to spend significantly longer at the beach without leaving out other parts of the tour. We are also sorry that you were not able to book the private tour you would have preferred. Our private buggy tours run at approximately 30% higher rate, but they offer a completely different level of flexibility: the itinerary can be customized, with the opportunity to stop at as many viewpoints and beaches as you wish and without the same time restrictions that apply to our group tours. Based on your review, we understand that this type of experience may have been much better suited to your expectations. We would also genuinely appreciate it if you could let us know how you made your booking and where you obtained the information when choosing the tour. We want to make sure that the differences between our group and private tours, as well as the private tour option itself, are sufficiently visible and clear during the booking process. Your feedback could help us improve this for future guests. That said, regardless of the tour type or group size, the advertised itinerary should have been delivered. This is why we would like to look into what happened with your particular tour rather than simply dismiss your concerns. Please contact us with the details mentioned above. Once we have investigated the matter, we will arrange a partial refund. We are sorry again that your experience was disappointing, and we hope you will give us the opportunity to investigate this properly and make things right.
We had a fantastic experience with the Buggy Safari tour. Buggies are in excellent condition. Our guide, Mandan, was very knowledgeable about the area and a great guide. Beautiful area to drive through and beaches were great. Would highly recommend this company and this tour.
Thank you so much for the fantastic review! 💛 We're delighted our buggies were in excellent condition and that your guide, Mladen, brought such knowledge and enthusiasm to the Korcula Buggy Safari Tour. It's wonderful to hear the drive and beaches lived up to expectations too! We'll pass on your kind words to Mladen and the whole team. We hope to welcome you back to Korčula one day for yet another experience! ☀️🏖🌿
The guides were great. The buggies were so much fun. The scenery was amazing. Beach time was perfect. Wine tasting was fun. Great wine and snacks.
Thank you! The buggy tour is one of those experiences that sounds fun on paper but still manages to exceed expectations when you are actually out there 🙂Happy to hear the guides made it memorable. Hope Korčula stays with you! ✨
Exhilarating, picturesque and so fun! Ina was great during the buggy tour and Vito was a great host during wine tasting! Highly recommend!
Thank you so much! This is exactly the kind of day and experience we want every guest to have — adventure, views, off beaten tracks, wine and stories, and memories that stick long after you get home. Vito will both be very happy to read this. Thank you 🥂
We really enjoyed our buggy tour experience! The buggy was fun to drive, especially on the rougher tracks. Our guide was interesting and informative about the area. We stopped at some stunning viewpoints and a pretty swim stop. The wine tasting was also great - generous pourings of delicious local wine and nice tasters of cheese, honey, oil, meats and jam. I was interested in hearing about the growing process, health benefits and community approach. Recommended!
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We are happiest hearing and knowing we did well in showing the most scenic and authentic parts of Korčula to our visitors. Wish you a nice rest of the stay in Croatia and hope to see you back again someday!
Fantastic experience driving fun buggies around the island and getting to understand the uniqueness of this special space. The day was finished with an awesome experience tasting Adria wines and liqueurs with Vito as our special host. Would really recommend this tour and wonderful tasting of jams, honeys, cheeses, prosciutto, white and red wines. Then the traditional tasting of locally made Rakija, Aronia and the best Vito juice.
Thank you! Reviews like these and opportunity to show guests the best of what the island has to offer are what makes us love and enjoy what we do!
Good wine but but not the brandy
Ha — the wine we can be proud of, the brandy feedback is duly noted! Thank you for the honest review and hope you enjoyed the rest of the tour!
The whole experience was so delightful. The views of the whole island and to finish it off with people who love where they live, and are passionate about the wine and olive oil they make. Everyone was so kind and the wine was so good.!
