What people love about Zagreb to Dubrovnik Tours
- Discover Croatia & Slovenia (Multi country)
This was one of our best tours! Excellent itinerary, amazing sites, incredible guide [Blanc] and fine hotels. Although the quality of the food varied a little from hotel to hotel, it was still very good. I would highly recommend the tour to anyone! Thank you
- Best of Croatia and Slovenia
Kassie Jones was a phenomenal Tour Director and so in tune with everything & everyone. I was truly amazed how beautiful Croatia & Slovenia were. A trip of a lifetime.
- Western Balkans Discovery - 7 days
Very good tour, good hotels, knowledgeable tour guides but too much chicken for dinner. Croatia is known for their great cuisine, specially fish, which was not offered till the end. Also did not understand why if drinking water is so fresh, good and free in Croatia, it was not provided at dinner. One had to pay for bottled water when the free one from the faucet was better.
