Croatia Tours for Experienced Travelers

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.

The trip was well paced and most every activity was very interesting. I wish that the tips for the bus drivers and city tours was prepaid in the cost of the trip. It would be easier than having to come up with the $$ on the spot and would insure the tour guide of getting tipped properly. Ivan was terrific and were all of our city guides. In my opinion they really made the trip exceptional.

Very enjoyable and interesting tour. Highlights were the stays at Korcula and Trogir islands where we were able to really enjoy the old towns and seaside atmospheres, and escape the maddening crowds of Split and Dubrovnik. Kotor in Montenegro was also a fascinating place to stay for the 2 nights. The vineyards selected were wonderful experiences. Our tour guide, Justin, was amazing - professional, very knowledgeable, friendly and willing to assist all of his 'guests'.

I highly recommend this tour for older travelers or those who wish to have a well-paced, informative, and interesting trip to see some of the beautiful sites in Croatia. Justin Walley, the tour leader, was exceptionally good at providing a comprehensive commentary for each location, and he was very caring and responsive to the health, safety, and adventure needs of all group members. The pace of the tour and activities, and the location of the hotels were ideal. I loved seeing the beautiful scenery, and having time to explore, shop, and rest. The trip notes were informative to ensure people were aware of the potential accessibility issues associated with the accommodation and the activities. Our bus driver was safe and careful with his driving, which was very much appreciated.

This was a fabulous tour. We had a lot of varied experiences, the guide Justin was amazing. His knowledge and attentiveness to the needs of one member of the team was exceptional. This was a very well planned tour providing plenty of time for us to explore on our own. I highly recommend this tour
