Twenty minutes south, a century back

Cavtat & Konavle private tour from Dubrovnik — half-day (4h).

Cavtat's seafront and the Konavle valley — the half-day that shows you the Dubrovnik locals keep for themselves.

This private half-day tour from Dubrovnik pairs Cavtat — a horseshoe harbour with a palm-lined promenade and no cruise ships — with the Konavle valley behind it: vineyards, cypress and stone villages where silk is still woven by hand for wedding costumes. It's our home turf; the company has run out of Cavtat since 1997.

Insider: Ask the driver to loop back along the upper Konavle road — the coast view is worth ten extra minutes.

Your driver & the route

A local at the wheel,
not a stranger.

The Konavle families we’ve known for twenty years — a tasting at a working farm, not a counter, and the stone villages the tour buses skip.

Trip-Specific FAQ

Have a question about Cavtat & Konavle?

The questions guests most often ask us about this specific trip.

Is Cavtat worth visiting from Dubrovnik?
Very — it's twenty minutes south and a century calmer, the Dubrovnik locals keep for themselves. A palm-lined promenade, the Račić mausoleum viewpoint and no cruise crowds.
How far is Cavtat from Dubrovnik?
About twenty minutes by road, and ten from the airport — which is why it doubles as a smart arrival- or departure-day outing.
What is Konavle known for?
Vineyards, hand-woven silk embroidery for the traditional costumes, and stone-walled villages — with a konoba stop for local wine and prosciutto.
Can I do this trip as a cruise-port shore excursion?
Yes, pickup at the Gruž cruise port is available. The trip fits inside a standard 8.5-hour port day with time to spare. Send your ship's name and arrival window in the booking form so we can align the schedule with your sailing.
Is Konavle accessible for older travellers?
Yes. Most of the trip is by car. The walks at Cavtat and in the stone villages are flat and short. We can replace any walk with a slow drive-by if mobility is a concern.
Is the tasting included?
The driver and vehicle are included; the tasting at the family farm is paid separately on the day. It is the only meaningful out-of-pocket cost.
Can the trip be customised?
Yes, swap a village stop for an olive mill or a longer Cavtat walk. For deeper changes, see our Tailor-Made page.
