Tips for Visiting Istria

📅
Book in advance

Many top wineries require reservations, especially during harvest season (September–October).

🚗
Hire a driver or join a tour

Wine regions are often best explored by car. Consider hiring a driver or joining a guided tour so everyone can enjoy the tastings.

🗓️
Best time to visit

Spring (April–June) and harvest (September–October) are ideal for visiting Istria. Summer can be busy but vineyards are beautiful.

🍷
Pace yourself

Visiting 3–4 wineries per day is ideal. More than that and the palate — and the memory — starts to blur.
