Nature Guide Walk with a Historical Twist
Ivana
As a nature lover, she enjoys hiking and walking, and lately, she has come to treasure the stillness of early mornings.
Growing up in this gorgeous place, she was surrounded by history and stunning views, and she loves sharing tales from our hometown.
We hope to pass on that sense of calm and connection through her Whisper Walks.
This is a nature walk and a journey through time combined; you’ll hear about ancient trade routes, famous and lesser-known landmarks, and Dubrovnik's cultural layers.
Around sunrise, Ivana guides you through the Mediterranean landscape, sharing stories of the land, its past, and the people who shaped it.
Join her for a peaceful early-morning walk along scenic paths just outside the historical centre, as nature slowly wakes up and the city begins to stir.
The tour ends in the historical port, just in time for you to explore the Old Town's alleys and squares after their morning wash and before the hustle and bustle.

Wild Companions, the
Past and the Present
In the quiet of the early morning, we set out on a guided walk through nature’s changing landscape.
Besides the story of the City's history and present, you may encounter a variety of local plants, each with its own energy. The wise sage, powerful wild orange, soothing lavender, sage, immortelle, and rosemary invite us to slow down and listen to their stories before walking down to the ancient streets.

Natural Soaps Workshop
Mindful Soap Making – Engage your senses and awaken the creativity within yourself through a slow, intentional workshop. Focus on textures, scents, and colors to cultivate presence, calm, and a gentle connection with yourself. We offer a variety of natural creations, including wild orange soap, coffee scrub, lavender, immortelle, sage, and other herb-infused blends, all made with local essential oils or doTERRA oils for a nourishing, aromatic experience.
Cacao Tasting
Cacao Tasting – grounding, heart-opening ritual that invites you to slow down and connect with your senses through taste, warmth, and presence.
You will enjoy either the rich, velvety cacao from Côte d’Ivoire or the deep, soulful cacao from Peru, depending on what we have available at the moment.
You can also explore raw cacao beans for an earthy, authentic connection to the plant itself. Each sip becomes an invitation into softness, emotional awareness, and mindful connection.
Lavender Eco Eye Pillows
Handmade in Norway with love for Africa, the Lavender Eco Eye Pillows carry a story of connection and care. Its colorful fabric, woven from soft African cotton and brought from Côte d’Ivoire, has been washed, ironed, and sewn by hand with intention and love in Norway.
Inside, it holds fragrant lavender from Dubrovnik, the scent of the Adriatic sun. As you rest and inhale the gentle lavender essence, your senses are invited to slow down. Aroma calms the mind, eases tired eyes, and brings a feeling of deep relaxation. Perfect after long hours at the computer, the pillow can also help ease insomnia, migraines, and sinus tension, in a simple, natural way to return to calm.
Each pillow supports the artisans of Côte d’Ivoire, the lavender fields of Croatia, and the well-being of the one who uses it.
From Norway and Croatia, with love for Africa ❤️
