What people love about Croatia Tours in April
- Cycle the Dalmatian Coast
Excellent trip and helpful tour guides.
- Explore Croatia (6 destinations)
I can't say enough great things about this trip. My group was great, you can't beat ferry transport and the itinerary was fantastic. We had a private dinner at a local's house where the food just kept coming. In Hvar we rented a private boat as a group and went island hopping. Croatia is just a beautiful country and the trip with Intrepid couldn't have been better.
- Impressive Croatia
We had a great time visiting Croatia. Our tour driver was very good and personable. Only comment was our day at the National Park. We walked to the beautiful Falls then took a boat ride to a meeting point. We had to wait for close to an hour for a boat and when we arrived we ate lunch. Almost missed lunch as they closed early (3:00) even though my understanding was we were to eat around 2:30 ish. After lunch we were unable to see any of the park because iby the time we checked in it was getting dark. Perhaps a change for this days schedule as it was a beautiful place and we would have loved to see more. The hotels were excellent and comfortable and we had nice breakfasts. Thankyou for showing us beautiful Croatia! Corinne and Ian
