“I was so impressed by the unique ambience of the Herceg Ethnic Village and this has stayed with me to the present day, a year later. I was literally swept off my feet and fascinated by everything.

From the warm welcome by the owner and director, the authentic atmosphere of the village, the level of service and facilities which the Village has to offer.

As an Actor who has played on almost every Stage in Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina, it was the Amphitheatre where many plays and concerts have been performed that impressed me. The Amphitheatre has been built so beautifully and with such skill that it is breath-taking.  I would also like to commend our hosts for the professionalism while organizing the first Herzegovina Cultural Summer 2009 which I saw at first-hand. Herzegovina has now got the Cultural Summer it deserves, it is a credit to all concerned and I wish them every success in the coming Seasons.”

“The National Folk Dance Ensemble of Croatia, LADO, goes on Summer Tour every year. With an Evenings Program, which it presents to audiences in Adriatic Tourist Centres from Istria to Dubrovnik. As part of this Summer Tour the Ensemble has been a participant at some of the most eminent Summer Festivals and Cultural Events on our coast, islands and inland.

Last year for the first time LADO performed in the Herceg Ethno Village. Amidst the beautiful and peaceful surroundings of the Chapel and stone houses and with the attention and kindness of our Hosts one soon forgets the outside world.

Members of the Ensemble ‘LADO’ will always remember in a special way their performance in the Amphitheatre before a ‘Full House’ on a wonderful Stage with excellent acoustics.

We truly believe that the Herceg Ethno Village will remain on the calendar of Summer Tour dates for our Ensemble.
