What our customers ask about Croatia and Greece Tours & Trips

• What are the must-see destinations in Croatia and Greece for first-time visitors?

  You've got to see Dubrovnik in Croatia it's this incredible walled city right on the coast that's actually a UNESCO site. Our Greece & Croatia Aegean Sea tour takes you there and you can do these amazing coastal walks while checking out the medieval architecture. Plitvice Lakes is another must-see with these stunning terraced lakes and waterfalls cascading everywhere. Over in Greece Athens is definitely essential with the Acropolis and all that history and Santorini wow the views over the caldera are just incredible. If you're into nightlife Mykonos is really vibrant and you can experience it all on tours like our Croatia to Greek Islands Zagreb Nights & Santorini Views.

• Should I take a guided tour or travel independently through Croatia and Greece?

  Well there's good things about both really. With guided tours everything just flows nicely between countries and you get these amazing insights from guides who really know their stuff our TourRadar customers love that. Like on The Eastern Discovery tour you can explore Plitvice Lakes with someone who actually understands the ecosystem or visit places like the Tara Community Center to learn about local culture. Independent travel gives you more freedom with timing and places but yeah you'll need to do more planning yourself. Our Zagreb to Athens tour actually gives you both guided experiences and free time so you get the best of everything.

• When's the best time to visit Croatia and Greece to avoid crowds but get good weather?

  Summer between June and August has perfect beach weather but it's super busy and prices go up. Spring around April-May or fall September-October are actually ideal you get really nice temperatures fewer tourists and everything's in bloom. The Eastern Discovery tours run during these shoulder seasons and it works out perfectly. The 14-day route from Zagreb to Athens lets you experience both countries when conditions are just right.

• How do I get between Croatia and Greece?

  There are these great ferry rides across the Adriatic connecting places like Split and Dubrovnik to the Greek islands it's really scenic. Flying's quicker especially for longer distances our Greece & Croatia Aegean Sea tour uses ferries for hopping between Santorini and Mykonos but includes a flight Athens to Zagreb to save time. Really just think about your time and budget when picking between them.
