What people love about Fully Guided Tours in Croatia
- Dalmatian Elegance (Classic, Upper Deck Cruise)
What can I say, the Dalmatian Elegance was a phenomenal trip! Our fantastic guide Aida took so much pride in guiding us around the islands of her home country and provided us with so much Insight (pardon the pun) whilst on shore excursions and showed us how to live like a local. The cruise was operated by Katarina line on board the MV Avangard, which was a beautiful ship. Our crew were so professional and accommodating, many of my fellow guests felt as though they had made lifelong friends. Special thanks goes to Matea and Tomislav who ensured that our drinks and meals were served wonderfully. I cannot recommend this trip highly enough, especially if sailing on the Dalmatian Riviera is an experience on your bucket list. I guarantee that this is one of the most stylish ways to experience it.
We had THE BEST time in Croatia. The guided tours were amazing & all the transfers arrived on time & in luxury vehicles. I can't reccomend enough!
Zagreb to Split - 4 Days
- Adriatic Explorer from Dubrovnik Premium Plus - 8 days
Tour was excellent but would have been much much cheaper to book directly with Katarina cruise line. On The Go Tours takes a large commission so I advise to book directly with Katarina. When I booked this it was unclear what cruiseline they used.
What our customers ask about Croatia Guided Tours & Trips
What's the best time of year to take a guided tour in Croatia?
Croatia's coastal destinations like Split and Hvar see peak crowds during July and August when beach conditions are ideal. For a more relaxed experience with good weather travelers often choose May-June or September-October. These shoulder months work well for hiking activities in Paklenica National Park and other outdoor destinations. Cities like Dubrovnik and Split maintain their energy through October. Winter tours shift focus to urban areas and cultural attractions. A recent TourRadar traveler reports: "We went in September and had perfect weather for both hiking and swimming plus the crowds had thinned out at major sites like Plitvice Lakes."
What kind of accommodations can I expect on a guided Croatia tour?
Most guided tours provide comfortable 3-4 star hotels in central locations. Split accommodations often include places like Hotel Marul which sits near Diocletian's Palace. In Dubrovnik the Hotel Kompas provides water views from its Lapad peninsula location. Smaller destinations feature family-run properties such as Villa Daniela in Bol. A TourRadar traveler shares: "The hotels were well-located and comfortable - the Villa Daniela in Bol was a highlight with its amazing views and home-cooked meals."
What makes a fully guided tour in Croatia worth choosing over independent travel?
Guided tours in Croatia eliminate logistical hassles while providing expert local context and exclusive access to popular sites. Groups can bypass lines at Plitvice Lakes National Park while guides share insights about UNESCO locations like Split's Diocletian's Palace and Dubrovnik's Old Town. A TourRadar traveler notes: "Our guide Mario was fantastic - his knowledge humor and thoughtfulness made the trip absolutely incredible and showed us places we'd never have found on our own." Tours handle all transport lodging at places like Hotel Kompas Dubrovnik and can adjust activities to group preferences.
What is typically included in a fully guided Croatia tour package?
Standard inclusions cover English-speaking guides quality accommodations like Hotel Vicko in Starigrad Paklenica daily breakfasts and select meals all ground transportation entrance fees to major sites like Plitvice Lakes and Krka National Parks city walking tours and cultural activities such as wine tastings in Pelješac peninsula. Lodging ranges from boutique hotels to traditional guesthouses including places like Villa Daniela in Bol. One TourRadar traveler reports: "Everything was extremely well organized with high quality equipment and exceptionally accommodating guides who worked tirelessly to ensure all tastes were satisfied."
How much free time is typically available on fully guided tours in Croatia?
Tours generally schedule guided activities in the morning leaving afternoons and evenings open for personal exploration. In Dubrovnik after morning tours of the Old Town walls visitors can ride the cable car to Mount Srd explore Game of Thrones filming locations or relax at nearby beaches. A TourRadar traveler notes: "The balance of walking and free time was just right - our guide organized great group meals but we also had plenty of time to explore on our own."
What level of physical fitness is required for guided tours in Croatia?
Cultural tours need moderate fitness for walking on cobblestone streets and steps in historic areas of Dubrovnik and Split with daily walks covering 2-4 miles at an easy pace. Active tours including hikes in Paklenica National Park require more stamina for uphill sections. A TourRadar traveler advises: "The walking in Plitvice Lakes was manageable but some paths were steep - poles were helpful especially on the limestone trails in Paklenica. Our guide at Hotel Vicko always adapted the pace to suit everyone."
