About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- John W0 contributionsBrilliant day outIf you want breathtaking views of the Spectacular Croatian countryside coupled with an exciting offroad adventure you will not be disappointed. Mato your guide and owner has a passion for his country and surroundings that shines through, he brings the history and geography to life- he and his family have lived and worked here for many generations. There is a range of driving experiences- little on tarmac but mostly on little used tracks cutting their way across the valley- river crossings and the challenging uphill rocky paths. The lunch is excellent. Tips - Bring your water bottle and drink from the stream, wear trainers or good walking shoes. This trip was the best thing we did in Croatia- so good in fact we did it twice.Written September 22, 2019
- J4014IGmattd0 contributionsBrilliant day outThe best trip we took by far whilst staying in dubrovnik. We have done kayaking, jet ski-ING, boat trips island trips the old city etc. But this beats them all. Great value for the family. 9am to 2pm lunch is included in the price at a great little restaurant in the villages at the feet of the mountains. The driving was great fun and Matt our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and quite rightly proud of his local area behind cavtat. The visit to the source of the spring water was stunning a really beautiful place... And not something that's readily promoted in the tourism around dubrovnik which is a shame. This is a great fun day out for the family!Written September 3, 2019
- Lincolnshire C0 contributionsSo much funThis was a last minute decision so wasn’t quite sure what to expect, we wasn’t disappointed. We were in Dubrovnik for my sons 18th and needed to find something fun for our last day. We all got to drive and went places we never would of found ourselves, or if you were on a coach . There was just 5 of us so was very private. We saw some fantastic scenery, went over rough retrain , water , rocks and open land, lunch was at our guides family restaurant and was delicious and the bread was the best along with a setting just beautiful. We did some walking up a waterfall and sampled the cool spring water . We all really enjoyed our ‘adventure’ laughed a lot and have great memory’s. Thanks MatoWritten July 6, 2019
- BrussoDallas0 contributionsEven better than we expected!We had a great time doing the Safari tour! The guide was a lot of fun & gave us a lot of interesting information when we were stopped. Croatia had been having a lot of rain so it make the drive even better :) The village we ate lunch in was great to walk around in & the food we delicious. This was a great way to get out of the crowds in Dubrovnik for half a day & take in some beautiful scenery. They were also able to set up a transfer for us since we didn't have a car.Written June 16, 2019
- Frankie P0 contributionsFantastic Off Road ExperienceWe were given our own 4x4 suzuki jeep and followed the leader/owner, Mato, in his own vehicle. We drove through rough terrain along the valley floor surrounded by beautiful scenery. As part of the experience we drove to a lovely village along the River Ljuta. There we stopped and had an authentic Croatian lunch (included in the price). Mato gave lots of local infomation about the places we visited and was great to chat to. This was an amazing day we shared with 2 of our friends who also had their own vehicle. Thank you Mato for a brilliant experience!!Written June 11, 2019
- ehumble10 contributionsSomething different and really interestingThis was a great 1/2 day out to experience local culture, landscapes and way of life away from the more tourist areas. Mato is an interesting and entertaining guide and picked us up from our apartment. The tracks are interesting with a river crossing but are fine for beginners. There are spectacular views and great local food included within the trip. Would 100% recommend.Written September 30, 2018
- andymorton30 contributionsWhat a fantastic adventureWe have been coming to this area for many years now and we were looking for something a little bit different last year we found this safari and you believe me we weren’t disappointed what a fantastic experience,we are returning to milni again next month and I will be definitely going to give it another blast Keep up the good work Mato and see you in September Andy MWritten August 29, 2018
- markostanley0 contributionsFun morning exploring off roadMy wife and kids and I enjoyed a fun morning with Mato exploring some of the quieter parts of Cavtat. He was a friendly and knowledgable host and guide with a long history living in the area. This was something very different to do and whilst a little more expensive than some other activities in the area, worth doing and one of the highlights of our trip to Dubrovnik. Recommended.Written August 28, 2018
- N0z120 contributionsGreat drive through beautiful KonavleWe booked via email and Mato picked us up from the bus station in Cavtat. We then jumped in a Suzuki jeep and headed off into the countryside. The tracks were rough but not too challenging only a couple of bits needed 1st gear. Mato guided us across the river to avoid the deep bit. Mato shared his intimate and interesting knowledge of the area and its history while taking us up to the spring that provides the water for the area. Filling our bottles from the spring and eating fresh fruit from the trees was a treat followed by an excellent lunch. Several scenic stops along the way - all in all a great day.Written August 20, 2018
- neiltaylor0620 contributionsAwesome day, just do this...Cheers Mato for a great day. Did this Jeep safari on 14th August it was just a brilliant day. Booked by e mail a few days before Mato picked us up from Cavtat, great knowledge and passion for his country and culture, excellent lunch in a stunning spot, met some lovely people on the same trip who all loved it as much as we did. Thanks again Mato...Written August 19, 2018
- helenclare7220180 contributionsAdventurous, cultural and fab food!We booked the safari by email the day before and Mato replied very promptly offering to pick us up from our apartment the next morning. First time I’ve been on an off road safari and it was great to be able to drive the jeeps. Mato was very knowledgeable and had many personal accounts with regards to his family living in the area for generations which he shared with us. We all stopped off for a lovely lunch of local ham, cheese and cooked meat with local red or white wine, with all 8 of us enjoying the great food and conversation. The off road terrain and river crossing really put the vehicles through their paces, and only 1 Jeep got stuck!! A thoroughly enjoyable 5 hours exploring areas that wouldn’t be accessible any other way. Highly recommend this adventure!!Written August 16, 2018
- harri640 contributionsA great day out in an unspoilt part of CroatiaMato is prompt, organised and well informed. The driving was a good mix of road/country track and rutted off road with a little water. Fun and adequate, we are all inexperienced off roaders. Lunch was excellent for both the meat and vegetarian options, in a lovely peaceful, cool setting. Bug spray is handy as you are out in the countryside/by water. Sunscreen on sunny days too. Would not advise for anyone with back problems as it’s very bumpy!Written August 15, 2018
- Miriam D0 contributionsGreat family day outWe took our two girls aged 9 & 11 on this jeep safari and all had a great time. Booked by text at the beginning of our holiday after reading the excellent reviews. Mato was an excellent guide. This is the first jeep safari we have been on where we actually drove the jeeps. My husband did the majority of the driving but it was fun for me to have a taste of the off road driving experience too. Lunch was superb and overall we were very pleased that we booked this trip. Thank you Mato!Written August 14, 2018
- Wiggo T0 contributionsRecommend the off road tripWe took the off road trip and were very satisfied with that. The off road driving was fun, although not the most challenging one due to dry weather, but interesting to see the hinterland of Cavtat and got a historic explanation of the valleys past. Very good lunch in a scenic place. If you want to get a bit away from mainstream tourist attraction , I recommend this one.Written August 2, 2018
- Lara M0 contributionsFantastic day outBooked this jeep safari last minute v text and Mato responded straight away. He picked us up from our hotel in Cavtat where we proceeded to our jeeps and out into countryside. Mato was a fantastic guide ensuring our safety and enjoyment through out. He is obviously very passionate about his family routes and we found him fascinating. Lunch was amazing and our daughter had the vegetarian platter and us the meat platter with local wine, all set by the river/mills. The jeeps were fun and definately off road, views amazing. Fantastic day with our thanks to Mato.Written July 14, 2018

the best trip to Konavle. driving safari in nature through the field next to the river Ljuta, then lunch in a home-made restaurant, delicious food to be enjoyed in the shade by the river. I recommend everyone who comes to Konavle on vacation to experience a tour with Safari Konavle.

Took the tour with Mato in may with my husband and his parents, booked through get your guide. Great communication from start to finish by the company, collection from outside the hotel with a phone call the day before to confirm the time. We had the four of us in our jeep, this is a self-drive jeep experience and was great fun. There were lots of view points with many photo opportunities. We stopped at lutja for a short walking tour and a fabulous lunch of local food and wine included, before continuing on the jeep safari. Mato was a great guide accommodating both french and English tourists. A fabulous day out, very enjoyable and a highlight of our holiday.

Don’t think about it, just do this safari, it is excellent!
We got picked up from Mlini at 9:10am on the dot and taken to Cavtat to meet the rest of the people doing the safari.
Mato the owner was a brilliant guide.
You get to drive the whole trip yourself through some great Croatian scenery, across fields, rocky tracks, tarmac etc.
The food stop was lovely, included in price, sat within trees next to the river, bbq meat, cold meat, cheese, fresh bread, chips, olives and pickles, salad etc, so much we couldn’t eat it all and a drink also included in the price.
Mato was extremely knowledgeable and a really nice guy.
Overall, a great fun experience and well worth the money especially when you consider the lunch provided!
Totally recommend 5⭐️

We've just come back from an excellent Jeep Safari trip around the Konavle region. Our guide was very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the trip. The driving is a mix of road, grass tracks and gravel roads some if which are up hills which makes for some really enjoyable driving. The right number of stops, the right amount of information and an excellent lunch. As a family of 5 we are really glad we took this trip. It was excellent and we would recommend to all that want to get off the main, busy areas and see some of the areas you wouldn't normally see. Our teens loved it as did our 11 year old. Thank you

Excellent excursion, both of us really enjoyed it, taking turns to drive our own jeep, was very varied and included a great lunch in a scenic location, there were great stops for photos too,also we had a scenic stop to bottle our own water at a fresh water source which was something different. Price included the lunch and hotel pick up and drop off which made it very easy to do. The owner leading the group was very friendly and knowledgeable too, highly recommend it.

Absolutely fantastic trip we met at our hotel and taken a short walk to our jeep. A small group of 9 went in convoy off road into the beautiful Konavle valley, our guide Mati was knowledgeable about the history of the country and we went to the most beautiful waterfall walk before lunch. Lunch was delicious, cheeses, meats, fries home made bread, what a feast. Local wine and beers too. The whole experience was well worth the money and something abit different to the usual tours. Would highly recommend.

A must for people wanting to experience some mild (ish) and not so mild off roading whilst seeing some of the most besutiful scenery in Cavtat and the surrounding areas. Mato, who owns the company, is such a great guy who has a wealth of knowledge about the local area. As part of the price you will be taken to a local riverside restaurant in Ljuta and you will not be disappointed. Its a fantastic day out, dont miss out when you visit Cavtat!

It was a great trip with one of the most delicious fish meals we had during our stay in Croatia. The restaurant was located on a beautiful, peaceful place on the stream.
We had fun driving along the off road pathways and getting to know the area better.
We had our own car but to be honest we were happy we booked this tour as we saw much more than we would have done otherwise.
The guide was very friendly, adaptative and responsive.
It was a very authentic experience- if you like a bit if driving challenge and you do not mind bumpy roads it is definitely the activity we would recommend.
The views were stunning and it was great to hear more about the history and traditions.
We even saw some farm animals and we drank water directly from the stream which our son really enjoyed!

This excursion is Brilliant. It’s a definitely must do if you are visiting Cavtat. We got hotel collection and drop off from Hotel Croatia which was very helpful . We also are left hand road drivers , but it was very easy to drive on the right hand side as you are following the tour guide. It was our first time driving right hand side and this only added to the experience . He offers you automatic drive jeeps or manual .
You spend a few hours off road driving in different locations and taking some stops for photographs and looking at some gorgeous scenic spots.
You also stop in a little town where you walk to a fresh water source where you can bottle your own water. And then lunch at a restaurant which serves lovely local foods and is rated top 10% in the world 2020.
It was fantastic . You can switch drivers around if you wish. Thank You Mato for a fabulous experience

Good communication when booking tickets and pickup from hotel. Mato our guide was very friendly throughout the trip and very good knowledge. Only to helpful in answering questions. Stopping off at points of interest and allowing us to take photos of the beautiful scenery. Lunch stop off was amazing and probably the best meal we have eaten in a fortnight. Would highly recommend this trip for anyone who comes to Croatia. Thanks Mota 👍
