Gulliver Travel commented on this reviewDear Stella, we are so proud of what we do when we read review like yours, as we know we did great job! We wish you many more great experiences and stay at disposal if you decide to visit Croatia again!Trip date: October 2025 - MFMarianne· May 3rd, 2025Gulliver travel were great communicators. The itinerary was good. The self drive itinerary was a great idea. The first two places we stood at were great. We were surprised the next three were ok just not the same caliber. Renting the car was easy except we weren’t advised we had to leave a hold on the credit card so it took us aback because they are so good at letting you know what to expect. Regardless, the trip was fun and a great experience. Thank you Gulliver travelShow moreGulliver Travel commented on this reviewDear Marianne, we are happy that you enjoyed your Croatia self drive experience, that you had fun and great time!

- JGJuan· June 28th, 2024Great family experience! We actually rented two cars. My Android connected easily to the car and so did my sister's iPhone in the car she drove, so driving directions from our phones made navigating easy. This is a very independent tour, so no expectations on a guide directing you on time schedule or what to see. If you don't take advantage of setting up an optional tour for the cities you visit, do your own homework. Driving through the various landscapes from Zagreb to the coastal cities was an unforgettable and enjoyable experience. Instead of flying over or taking a fast moving train with designated stops, driving gave us a better sense of the country, culture and people. The accommodations that included more than just a continental breakfast were in close driving distance or accessible with public transportationShow moreGulliver Travel commented on this reviewDear Juan, reading your review confirms us that this tour is a great way to explore Croatia in few days. As you write, it gave you opportunity to visit various landscapes with giving you better sense of the country, culture and people. So nicely... Show moreTrip date: June 2024

Katrina· September 23rd, 2019We had no formal gathering. Had no idea it was Magical Croatia tour as we were told Atlas tour and front of bus stated highlights of Croatia. Meals not served till after 7.30-8.00pm. After walking tour was left with up to 2hrs to explore before being picked up. Plitvice Lakes was a complete rush with no time to enjoy scenery and take lovely photos (extremely dissapointing) Hotel in Zagreb was nowhere near eateries only bars strip joints and casino. Also toilet didnt work. Very rude front of house staff. Not enough time!Show moreGulliver Travel commented on this reviewDear Ms Katrina Augostin, thank you for your review.
