    This was a fantastic trip!! We decided on the Adriatic Pearls itinerary because it made sense to visit Venice and then places in Istria and down the Dalmatian coast that had been ruled by Venetians. We also liked that the last day would be a free day. As it turned out, my husband and I were the only two people who had booked this tour, which not only allowed us flexibility with the itinerary, but a delightful and informative connection to Dejan, our terrific guide and driver from Venice to Dubrovnik. Dejan made the trip so easy, interesting and wonderful in so many ways!!! The trip offered us new information about a part of the world that had been unfamiliar to us, an opportunity to enjoy beautiful coastal towns, hiking in the incredible Plitvice National Park, delicious food, and exquisite hotel stays. This was truly a memorable trip!! The tour operator, Palma, did a great job communicating with us from the time we booked the trip to the final day. Kristina was so patient with all our questions and she insured that everything went smoothly. Palma had also chosen personable and very informative guides in Venice, Split and Dubrovnik. Book this tour, request Dejan, and you’ll have a memorable experience!!!

    For the most part, we were very pleased with the tour. Christina was great to work with. We modified the trip a little to better suit our needs. The guides were quite good, as were the drivers. The hotels were also fine and we liked the buffet breakfasts. Dubrovnik, Split, Plitvice Lakes, and Zagreb are all worth seeing. We decided to have one more day in Split and one more day in Dubrovnik and one less day in Zagreb. One issue prevented me from giving this a five star review. The drivers were prompt every day except the day we were leaving for the airport. There was a mixup with the time the driver picked us up. He did not come at the scheduled time and we could not get hold of Christina. We ended up getting a taxi on our own. Tour Radar did compensate us or this, but it did cause us some stress.

    Most of the trip was good. We had a problem when the first hotel was changed and we were given bunk beds, but a text to Palma fixed that. .

    Asked on June 25th, 2022

    I found this trip called Explore Slovenia and Croatia. Could you please let me know if you still offer this trip? I am hoping to visit Croatia and Slovenia in October and have to book this week.

      TravelerWritten June 2022

      Would I be travelling alone or in a group? What would be the price for this tour? Are there more departure days or only 6th of October?

    • PALMA DMC & TO OperatorWritten June 2022

      This tour requires minimum of two participants and at the moment, we do not have any bookings yet, therefore I cannot guarantee you a departure. If you wish, we can prepare you a private tour with a similar itinerary.

      Courtney

      TravelerWritten June 2022

      I might be interested in a private tour but it depends on the price. What would be the price for the private tour? Please let the tour include Lake Bled, Plitvice and Postojna.
