As a repeated traveler with G Adventures company, I am sorry to say that this was not the best experience I had in my 2 weeks vacation due to above mentioned issues. The trip otherwise would have been fantastic as the sites are amazing and Sandre's knowledge and experience are remarkable.
We all had an unforgettable trip. We were lucky with great weather but either way every day was an absolute blast, and I really want to reiterate how great Marko was - it wouldn’t have been the same without him.
A great way to experience Croatia. However, we feel that some of the optional experiences should be INCLUDED (specifically the lunch at the family-owned winery) and a little more time spent in the STON area would have been nice.
Croatia is the best of Europe, where grand Roman monuments meet world-renowned wines and sweeping coastlines meet wild national parks. This adventure from Zagreb to Dubrovnik unites the country’s highlights, with every day bringing a new wonder. Hike around the jaw-dropping Plitvice Lakes, discover Diocletian’s Palace in Dubrovnik, taste freshly caught oysters in Ston and sip local wines on the Pelješac Peninsula.
