What people love about Croatia Tours in October
- Croatia Deluxe Cruise - from Split
We did have difficulty knowing where to board as we had not received any information about the name of the ship or instructions on how to get there until the evening before we were to board. This also was received only after I had sent a message toTourRadar during the afternoon stating that we had not received this information. The cruise itself was excellent, with superb meals and great stops on the islands. Sadly, the cabin had a broken blind and dripping toilet which was unable to be fixed. The staff were all very helpful.
- Pearls of Adriatic cruise
We had 7 wonderful nights and enjoyed gorgeous scenery, visited Dubrovnik, Split, Mljet,Korcula- all fabulous and really interesting. Swim stops every day and lovely friendly crew. Paradise!
- Zagreb to Dubrovnik: Parties & Plitvice Lakes
Claudia was an amazing guide! Couldn’t have asked for anyone better. The trip was super fun, great group, and we did so much in the amount of time we had. Would absolutely go again!!
