What people love about Island Hopping Tours in Croatia
- Premium Split to Dubrovnik
I very much enjoyed seeing the beautiful Croatian coastline. Our tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable and seemed to have a real love for his country. My main criticism was that there were frequent incidents where things such as guides in the different areas were not included in the tour, so it felt like we were often paying for services that I would have thought would be part of the overall tour. I would have preferred to have paid more money up front than to have had the frequent requests for additional money.
- Croatia Island Hopping, 15 Days
The tour was excellent and certainly good value for money. Accommodation was also good value and comfortable. Woynot hesitate to recommend this trip to others, actually I already have.
- Explore Croatia (6 destinations)
This was my first trip with Intrepid Travel and everything was seamless. Our guide was Croatian and really went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed ourselves. The group dynamic was really fun and I got a chance to do everything that was on my list - rented a boat and went island hopping, hiking, visited a national park (Krka) and I REALLY enjoyed the orientation tour in Split. I will definitely be going on another trip this year.
