Croatia Tours for Seniors

Great logistics and beautifully laid out riding. Rigorous in the heat but doable for 70-year-old women. Good hotels and welcoming staff. Staff were punctual, informative and friendly. Beautiful riding along the coast and through villages. I would suggest a 2-night stay to enjoy the villages. Stop to smell the roses.

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.

This is the 4th Back Roads tour we have been on and does not disappoint. Croatia is a lovely country and Back Roads have tailored their experience fabulously well for their customers.
