Croatia

The tour was almost a 5 star. The only change I would make is that a different hotel be used in Korcula. The Marko Polo was not in good shape and we stayed there 3 nights. All of the other hotels were beautiful. Our guide, Andres, was amazing and very helpful. He went above and beyond when I got sick and couldn't finish a ride on the 4th day.

Had a great time! Andre was very helpful and the biking was amazingly beautiful!

Wonderful trip with good rides, great food, nice boat, great group of people, awesome guides, and a wonderful country to visit.

Just a fantastic adventure. The Croatian people and scenic vistas are remarkable. The accommodations were more than adequate and the local guides informative and pleasant. This trip is a must do if you want to visit this region. Croatia is still.unspoiled by over tourism with the exception of Dubrovnik. Dubrovnik is still nice but very crowded compared to the balance of the country. Being on the ship and enjoying all that Croatia has to offer was indeed one of the best things about this adventure. All the equipment provided was in excellent condition. Very good value and we certainly would take this trip again in a minute!

This was an absolutely delightful experience. I am very impressed with VBT's way of supporting the local economy by hiring local guides, and setting up dinners with locals. Our hotels were great, the guides were wonderful, and i learned so much about local culture and history. Our guides, Mario and Neven, are just wonderful people and so helpful fun to be around.

The Croatia bike trip was simply outstanding. First and foremost, we could not have gotten better guides from Croatia to show us the islands of Hvar and Brac. The culture, the scenery, the comraderie could not have been better. Plus we learned how to ascend and descend rather large hills! Would absolutely do it again.

Our Country Walkers trip to Slovenia and Croatia was the trip of a lifetime. Our walks ranged from beautiful mountain trails to a spectacular gorge, to Byzantine ruins on an island in the Adriatic. We experienced wine tasting and truffle hunting, and dinner at a historic summer home on Lake Bled. But what really made the trip unique was the knowledge, caring and skills of our two guides Daniel and Vida. They shared their passion for their country, knowledge of the natural world and the history of the region, while at all times looking out for us.

Country Walkers crafted the perfect itinerary for Slovenia and Croatia. Each phase of the trip was carefully selected right down to the selection of high end hotels, meals in interesting restaurants and side trips which we actually enjoyed such a fun wine tasting and a truffle hunt. The walks were all scenic but within the range of difficulty promised. Our guides were knowledgeable, pleasant and caring. We have traveled extensively but this was our first Country Walkers trip and we will definitely travel with them again. Every participant on our trip extended either before or after. That is something to keep in mind.

We had a great trip thanks in a large part to our guides and our Croatian hosts! Dani and Dani were a great guiding team, who adapted the itinerary to meet our needs. They were thoughtful, informative and knowledgable. I would highly recommend this trip. You will learn so much about the wonderful and beautiful Dalmatian coast.

This walking tour was awesome. The different venues, hikes and lodging was all terrific . The single factor that made the trip so good, were the two Guides. Dani and Dani were so thoughtful, knowledgeable, and their trips to lunches and meals and wine tasting, at various venues were remarkable. Getting to know some of the locals at these venues, and visiting places off the beaten path, were one of the high points, in my view.
