A short scenic walk along the river leads you to Konavoski Dvori, a charming local restaurant set in a peaceful natural setting. Enjoy a leisurely lunch featuring regional specialties prepared with fresh, local ingredients.

The experience concludes with a wine tasting at Karaman Winery, where you’ll sample carefully crafted local wines and learn about the area’s long-standing winemaking tradition.
