Planning a Croatia and Greece tour, but not sure how to get around? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered.

The best way to get from Croatia to Greece is to take a plane. The most common flight is Dubrovnik to Athens which takes around 1 hour and 25 minutes. The one-way airfare costs around USD 50 without luggage. While there are no direct bus or train services between Croatia and Greece, you can still make the journey via Serbia and Macedonia, albeit the journey is a long one and costly too. You could also take a ferry from Croatia to Greece via Italy. Again, this option is time-consuming and expensive.

The best time to visit Croatia and Greece has to be either just before or after the summer season. April-May and September-October are both great times to plan your Croatia and Greece trip, as there are fewer crowds, rates are lower, and the scorching summer temperatures haven’t yet set in.

• Hike the mighty Corfu Trail and the dramatic Dalmatian coastline.
• Explore wild natural spaces at Plitvice National Park and the stunning Edessa Waterfalls Nature Reserve and encounter wild cats, lynx and brown bears.
• Dive into history with tours of the Archeological Museum in Athens and the Pula Arena, one of the best-preserved Roman amphitheaters in the world.
• Indulge in a magical island food and wine tour by combining a Croatia and Greece tour across Santorini and Hvar. Try dishes such as Kalamarakia tiganita and Dagnje na buzaru, and sample sweet Vinsanto wine.

• Make sure to carry cash in both Croatia and Greece, as many of the smaller towns, islands, and businesses won’t take cards.
• Plan any island hopping trip in advance. Not all ferries in Croatia and Greece operate every day and some are booked up in advance, especially during the peak travel season.
• Both Croatia and Greece are huge, so trying to tick off everything on your bucket list in one trip is going to be exhausting and expensive. So, pick a few key destinations and explore them in depth.
