    This is a difficult review to write. The actual cruise with Katarina Cruise Line on the Fantazija was a 10/10. It was an excellent introduction to such a beautiful country. The crew on the boat were very personable and attentive. Filip, the Crew Manager was definitely a 20/10. He did everything he could to make the trip a memorable experience, especially when the boat had to stay in Dubrovnik for two nights because of the rough seas. He made sure we barely noticed the difference. Our room in the lower deck was large and very comfortable. With a max of 38 travelers, we had the opportunity to get to know several guests. We stayed 3 additional nights at the Plazza Heritage Hotel in the Split Historic District, which was a real treat. And now for the not so good part. Nature Trips gets a 2/10. Omar didn't communicate well. I had to actually call Tour Radar twice to get him to respond to my concerns. I discovered that 3 additional nights in Split were done through Expedia. Nature Trips over charged by more than $1,000. I had to go through Tour Radar to get him to realize what had happened as he was not responding to my message. On the plus side, he did respond to have the voucher ready early as we were first going to Turkey. On Oct. 12, the airport transfer was to pick us up at 3:30 a.m. The voucher only said the driver would wait for us with our name on a sign. The only problem is that the driver couldn't drive into the historic district. We had no idea where to meet him. I sent Omar a message asking him to confirm the transfer and where we should meet the driver. As usual, Omar didn't respond. The contact number printed on the voucher was missing a number. I finally found a number to find out it was no longer in service. Two receptionists at the hotel tried their best to contact someone with negative results. At 3:40 a.m. the night receptionist walked with us to where we could catch a taxi to the airport. I have sent Omar another message explaining what we had to do and that I expect him to credit us back the 50 euros it cost to take the taxi, as the airport transfer was included. Naturally, I've heard nothing back. I shall have to call Tour Radar once again. In conclusion, if I had this to do again, I would book directly with Katarina Line, Plazza Heritage Hotel, and arrange for airport transfers. I choose to book through a tour agent to receive personal attention while traveling. Nature Trips failed on this account. We had a 20/10 experience with Iglesias Tours in Turkey, so this was a big let down.

    Overall, we recommend this cruise. It's a nice way to see the islands, the food was tasty, we loved the swimstops, and the islands had some interesting sights. We met mostly travelers from New Zealand & Australia on this tour. The cabins were basic but fine. Local guides provided helpful history and we liked having dinners on our own, especially since lunch in Croatia is the main meal and was served aboard the ship. A good accompaniment to a separate land tour of Croatia.

      Heidi

      TravelerWritten June 2024

      Will we be stopping there? If not, I would like to spend 2 to 3 days there exploring cemeteries and trying to figure out where my grandparents lived. Do you have any recommendations for where to stay? We don't need anything fancy.

    • Nature TripsOperatorWritten June 2024

      No Mali Losinj is completely in another part of Croatia. The tour booked goes from Dubrovnik to Split and includes the visit of different Islands. My recommendation is to travel to Mali Losinj after the cruise, from Split you can rent a car or take a ferry to Mali Losinj. There are several B&B and good hotels not fancy and well located in the main towns Nerezine or Mali Losinj (town -same name as the Island)
