If you have an appetite for exploration as part of your Istrian Experience, allow us to recommend some of our favourite activities ...

FOR HISTORY LOVERS ...
 

Do not miss out on the Euphrasian Basilica in Porec.  Designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1997, it is one of the best examples of Byzantine architecture in the Mediterranean, and the 6th century mosaics in the triumphal arch are spectacular. 

FOR GOURMETS ...
 

The bounty of the Istrian land and treasures  of the Adriatic Sea combine to produce many extraordinary gastronomic experiences, right on your doorstep.  Experience the Konoba - a traditional restaurant offering regional specialties prepared the original way.  Istria is also home to 6 JRE designated restaurants. Every experience is memorable, and the choices are endless ...  

FOR WINE LOVERS ...
 

The award winning Clai Winery is located a short 5 minute walk away from Villa Oliva and just a few kms from Villa Picholine.  Clai's award winning skin-contact whites (aka orage wines) are not to be missed.  Take a seat on their patio and soak in the experience.
