Gabrili is located in the fertile Konavle valley, Croatia's southernmost region, about 20 kilometers from Dubrovnik. The village is a prime example of the region's rural charm, with houses made of local stone and well-kept gardens. Konavle is often called the 'Tuscany of Croatia,' which is reflected in the landscape of cypresses, grapevines, and olive trees. The area around Gabrili is handy for agrotourism. Many farms have opened their doors to visitors, offering homemade specialties such as ham (pršut), cheese in oil, and local wines like Malvasija Dubrovačka. For active visitors, there are numerous hiking and cycling trails as well as horse riding opportunities. Despite its proximity to Dubrovnik airport, Gabrili maintains a remarkable silence. In a short time, you can reach the coastal town of Cavtat with its beaches and pretty promenade. A visit to Gabrili has the chance to experience the authentic life of Konavle farmers and the region's rich folklore.
