Croatia

What an amazing trip! Every. Single. Day. somehow topped the next. Food, people, wine, history, biking, architecture, the Adriatic Sea, small seaside towns, countryside, and so much more - which we knew would all be incredible - exceeded expectations at every turn. Simply said, we cannot say enough good things about the experience we had during this trip. The local support (Andre) was awesome; incredibly helpful, always available, and super knowledgeable. Biking was a great way to see the country, and the app made it very easy to navigate around. Routes were thoughtfully laid out, traversing through beautiful backroads, and to quiet towns. Biking with a non-e-bike was a bit challenging given the hilly terrain, but was still a lot of fun. Hotels were great - some super nice, others quaint - and the flights purchased by VBT maybe could have been a little more direct, but they got us where we needed to be, without any unexpected headaches. Overall, we could not recommend this trip any stronger. It will not disappoint.

Fantastic trip. The bike routes were beautiful and fun and the GPS was easy to use. Our itinerary was perfect and our host was great. You will not regret this trip. E-bike was a life saver!

What an amazing trip! Cycling with VBT in the country of Croatia was not on my bucket list….but thank goodness I added it. This was my 44th country to visit and Croatia ranked right up there in my top two favorites. I can’t say enough about VBT , the organization, the incredible staff and guides , the itinerary….Everything was seamless. . I am already planning my next trip.

Everything was top notch the food, accommodations the tours and destinations, the bikes and the boat Futura were fabulous, and our 3 guides were amazing, will tell everyone of my friends about this VBT trip!

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.

Wowsa, what a wonderful adventure. We explored the Dalmatian Islands on beautiful scenic roads... and most importantly from the comfort of e-bikes, which made the "rolling hills" a little easier to ride. Our guides did an outstanding job from day one. Highly recommend this trip!

This trip exceeded my expectations due to Dani and Vida, our amazing guides.They were able to share their personal stories in a professional manner that enriched the trip and we became friends. They were aware and alert to each individuals needs and responded to those needs. They were knowable and worked smoothly was a team. I would travel with Country Walkers again due to Dani and Vida.

I can't say enough good things about our recent trip to Slovenia/Croatia. We were Country Walkers "newbies", urged by friends to try it, and thoroughly enjoyed all of it. We were initially attracted to the location, as I have ancestors from the region, but we had no idea about the gorgeous landscape, mountains, and warm and friendly people (most all are English speakers, since it is their second language in grammar school.) Hotels were above expectations, comfortable, and have addicted me to eiderdowns. The food also was better than " tour quality" and even included a private dinner at Tito's mansion on Lake Bled one evening, overlooking the lake. Excursions to a winery and Roman ruins lent educational interest (especially due to excellent guide Nada in Pula), as did the truffle hunt (thoughtcrimes, sadly, our truffle hound was unsuccessful in his hunt the day.) I must give the most credit, however, to our 2 Country Walkers guides-Vida and Irena, both avid hikers and mountaineers (among other sports), friendly, organized, and careful with our wellbeing. All tours should be fortunate enough to have such leaders. All in all, it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

I have been on multiple bicycle and walking adventures and this was one of the best. The guides were exceptional. They were from Croatia and they did a great job leading us on challenging walks every day and, at th4e same time, educating us on their country. The hotels where we stayed were very nice and well located for our walks and for us to spend free time. The morning breakfast and other meals were excellent. I would highly recommend the Croatia - Dalmation Coast Adventure to my friends and anyone who is relatively physically fit. A fantastic adventure!!!

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.
