Grape Harvest for Individuals & Friends
A hands-on slow tourism experience in the vineyards
Ever wondered what it feels like to be part of the grape harvest? Join us for a few hours in the vineyard—slow down, touch the land, and take part in something real.
Harvesting grapes by hand is more than work. It's rhythm, silence, connection, joy, and sometimes even exhaustion. But by the end, there’s a deep sense of relief and gratitude—shared with others, shaped by nature, and held in the simplicity of the moment.
What you'll experience:
- Grape picking in a clean, chemical-free vineyard
- Unlimited grape tasting while you work
- Choose your pace: slow and repetitive snipping, or carrying crates if you like to move
- Shared breaks with harvest snacks, fresh burčiak (young wine), and natural wine
- Duration: about 5 hours
- Contribution: we believe in a joyful exchange of energy — no fixed fee
Who is it for?
- Travelers looking for an authentic, grounded experience in Slovakia
- Nature lovers, wine enthusiasts, curious wanderers
- Solo guests welcome – many friendships start between the rows
- Groups of friends looking for a day outside, away from noise and structure
