My name is Gabrielle but most people call me Gaby. Born and raised in the south west of France from British parents. I moved to Korcula to join my husband after travelling the world working on luxury cruiseships. From the first moment I set foot on Korcula I fell in love with its beauty. I then quickly found out about it's hidden secrets, the beautiful bays but also the amazing wines the island produces. After working for a year in a local wine shop and gaining the knowledge of all the different varieties and productions around the island, I decided to take travellers through the same joyful adventure I experienced when I first arrived here. I love taking my guests to not only discover the island but also the traditional ways that wine is still produced here and the beautiful grape varieties that are only native to such a small place. Between small family run wine producers to bigger more established companies, I take you through a real discovery of the island all the while enjoying the most jaw dropping views of the adriatic sea and the coast. Being very familiar with the locals, the area and the different facilities or activities, I can very easily create an itinerary that can fit your timeline or your wishes whether you are a family with children or a couple on a honeymoon, I have made it my mission to make your experience unforgettable. Bachelors degree in International Hotel Management with Wine specialty Working as a tour guide for 2 years I am not licensed to provide a guided tour within the old town of Korcula. I will not drive the vehicle but use a company to take us around the island. This is included in the price.
