Croatia City sightseeing Trips

This was just a beautiful and most enjoyable first-time tour with Explore. The tour leader, Tomislav, was excellent, combining very efficient organisation and the knowledge to answer all our questions with a great sense of humour. The places we visited were stunning, accommodation was just right and food was lovely.

My wife and I have traveled extensively with Insight Vacations and its sister company Trafalgar, visiting 11 and 10 European countries respectively. Each tour has consistently exceeded our expectations for quality, organization, and value. Our Tour Director, Irina, was outstanding — exceptionally knowledgeable, highly organized, approachable, and welcoming. She is truly an asset to the company. The coach driver and local city guides also performed at the highest level, providing insightful commentary on history, culture, cuisine, and personal perspectives. The itinerary was both educational and visually spectacular. Highlights included charming towns and islands, castles, fortresses, boat and ferry crossings, countryside farms, valleys, mountains, lavender fields, grape vineyards, Mediterranean olive groves, and breathtaking coastal scenery. Accommodations were clean and comfortable, meals were plentiful, and hotel staff were consistently helpful and courteous. A note for future travelers: this is an active tour with approximately 3-4 miles of walking per day, plus cobblestone streets, uneven sidewalks, and stairs. Travelers with any mobility limitations should consider this carefully, as the physical demands are significant. That said, the pace was well balanced, with ample free time between arrivals and optional excursions. We returned home with thousands of photos and lasting memories, as well as the camaraderie of fellow travelers from around the world. Based on our experience, I highly recommend Insight Vacations and Trafalgar Escorted Tours for anyone seeking a well-run, immersive European tour.

What makes Croatia perfect for me 1. The country is beautiful to see (coast, islands, mountains, woods, caves, etc.) 2. Not only that but there is so much history (I love Western Civ) 3. Practically everyone speaks English. 4. They eat meat, potatoes, and break like me! 5. Glad they are on the Euro. 6. I had internet the whole time so I could communicate. 7. We visited not only Croatia but Slovenia and Montenegro. We even added a post-day and sent to Bosnia! 8. Tourism is very important to the country, so everyone is trying to show you a good time.

It’s a great itinerary! I enjoyed going to many different cities & to islands in Croatia! We were able to see the landscape scenery & al do the coastline & beautiful islands!! That was very special!

Beautiful country. Great way to see it by bus. Hvar and Dubrovnik are a sight to behold. Postojna Caves are awesome. They are the second largest in the world. Love the train ride into them. Zagreb has so many museums of all types. Loved going to the museum of Illusions by ourselves when we were there. Plitvice Lakes national park was an adventure to see how close you can come to the numerous waterfalls. Some much to see on this trip. Warning, a lot of walking but worth it. The hotels are first class with beautiful sunsets to see from them. You'll love the optional excursions as well.

Croatia Island Hopping was definitely on of the best trips I have ever done with Explore.We stayed in some beautiful less touristy places, our leader was the best and the inclusions were excellent. It was so good I will recommend it to all my friends and I would love to do it again. If you love beautiful scenery, crystal clear water for swimming,small historic towns to explore,delicious cuisine and being with a small group,this is the trip for you!
