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.

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

The bike and boat Dalmatian Islands trip was excellent in all regards. The scenery was exceptional and the biking was was hard to beat. We were thankful that we had e-bikes as many of the up hill portions were quite long. They were a breeze and were greatly appreciated. The guides took good care of us and clearly briefed us on our daily rides. Our tour group was split between those with regular bikes and e-bikes but everyone easily got to enjoy the experience. The only negative was that the islands have become quite popular and were more resort like than we expected. All in all no complaints.

Croatia bike and boat was outstanding! We enjoyed using the boat as our 'Floating Hotel" and were very pleased with the food prepared by the chef. Our leaders, Neven and Julian, were caring, responsive and fun. The rides were challenging but so beautiful. The people we met in Croatia were friendly and the little towns and villages were charming. Great trip!

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!

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.

The trip was excellent . We had some rainy weather but the guides rose to the occasion and made our hikes workable and enjoyable in spite of that. They took us on some very interesting activities such as truffle hunting and wine tasting and we visited some interesting places, such as the old city of Rovinj and the Roman amphitheater at Pula. They provided extra very knowledgable guides for those. The accommodations were very comfortable and the food was outstanding.

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.

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.
