Croatia Art architecture Trips

Loved the Adriatic towns, very walkable , picturesque and safe. Farm to table dining was great. As a pescatarian, the group dining options were very good with the exception of the final group dinner in Zagreb. Having done the Christmas markets tour from Prague to Budapest, the Croatia markets were a major disappointment, they were 90% food with little to no crafts. Not a huge deal for me but I have holding out on souvenirs for Zagreb market, which again was food, so to be in Zagreb on a Sunday with most all shops closed was a bummer. When we went by bus over the mountain to the farm to table dinner, there was a spectacular view with a cross and a parking lot. We were all disappointed that we did not stop for sweeping views of sea. I think that is a must stop location. Dubrovnik in the office season is wonderful, no crowds along the wall walk made for great pictures, likewise at the lakes by Zagreb

The whole tour was exceptional. Mostly, I loved being in the old cities surrounded by big, tall, ancient walls. It felt like I was on a movie set. My most favorite time was experiencing the sea organ. That was amazing! I could have sat there for hours and listened. Ivana, our tour guide for the trip, was amazing. She is full of history of Croatia, loves to share her knowledge with everyone in a fun way. Her personality shines through. I never saw her angry, in spite of some really trying folks. And Slobo, our driver, was the perfect gentleman. And a wonderful driver. I enjoyed my first overseas trip immensely and would highly recommend it to anyone who is physically fit.

There were too many wonderful experiences to have a favorite. We had an amazing tour director and coach driver. We visited unique and beautiful places. The hotels were nice. It was a great trip.

Our tour guide lives in and loves Croatia. This made for a very informative and personal type of tour. She spent much energy to ensure that everyone had a great time. I would be very pleased to have her again as a tour guide.

Our tour guide was top notch - friendly, professional, helpful and very knowledgeable. He added many narratives about the history of both Slovenia and Croatia which to me was extremely educational and interesting. There were so many memorable parts of the trip that it’s hard to narrow it down. Our dinner up in the mountains at a family owned restaurant (which had been a barn and converted to a restaurant) was pretty special. One of their entrees included truffles in. Absolutely delicious! The food and wine was beyond delicious and the hospitality so very warm and friendly.

The Best of Croatia and Slovenia itinerary across these two beautiful countries included a good collection of historical locations, geographically unique locations, beautiful vistas, inland cities, lakeside resort areas, and coastline towns with historically important harbors. The itinerary was well paced with rich experiences, and the hotel accomodations were pleasant and often enhanced the local experience. I would strongly recommend tour to anyone.
