Croatia Explorer Tour Reviews
Honest insights from past guests on our Explorer Croatia tours
Liz | Traveled in October
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.
Doris Vi | Traveled in October
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
Lesley | Traveled in October
The 9 nights/10 days tour of Croatia and the Dalmatian Coast was a very pleasant and interesting vacation. Our tour guide Justin was brilliant, always helpful, informative and professional. I thoroughly enjoyed all activities experienced and the hotel accommodation was very good. Travel, activity and free times were nicely balanced.
Keith Mu | Traveled in September
Absolutely fabulous tour - especially if you can get Justin Walley to lead it. Tour was a good mixture of morning tours lead by experienced local guides and a good amount of free time to explore on your own. The group dinners were good value - both in the quality of the meals and the venues. The dinners were not rushed (as we have found on Insight tours). Cooking class was such fun. Really recommend this tour.
Tara K | Traveled in September
Overall it was great. I think that in Albania it would be good to add in some beach time for the those whe want it. Maybe stay a night in Ksamil and make Butrint optional.
John St | Traveled in September
Great trip with so many different experiences. A lot of effort into providing different and interesting things. Maje our tour guide was warm and friendly but also very efficient and organised.
