Croatia

Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

Our travel planner did an exceptional job planning a trip for our family of 4 (including 2 kids, ages 8 and 10). I sent a request for assistance planning a trip with minimal instructions- just that we wanted to visit Croatia with kids, and we wanted to explore secluded beaches and snorkel. Our travel planner was immediately responsive, and crafted a perfect itinerary for us. We started in Split, visited Plitvice, and then sailed down the coast to Dubrovnik with stops at little towns and pristine beaches and coves along the way. Every detail was perfect: Our travel planner booked excellent hotels, a perfect boat, dinner reservations at excellent restaurants, and remained in contact to ensure that every aspect of the vacation went off perfectly. Each transfer was right on time, hotels were lovely, and each driver and skipper was highly qualified, professional, and a charming ambassador for the region. Our travel planner was also flexible as our plans changed over time, and adjusted easily and quickly. I would highly recommend her and her agency to anyone looking for assistance planning a vacation, and I would happily seek her out for future trips.

What were the most enjoyable or memorable parts of your trip?

Everything about the trip was memorable We had high expectations, and this trip exceeded all of them. We fell in love with Split, with the beautiful beach, delicious restaurants, and the historic and lovely Diocletian's palace as the heart of old town. Plitvice is exceptionally beautiful, with multiple crystal clear lakes and innumerable breathtaking waterfalls. Sailing down the coast was a unique and beautiful experience. Our kids swam daily, and saw a great variety of fish, crabs, a clam and even an octopus while snorkeling. We were able to visit smaller spots, including Ston and Mali Ston. Korcula was another highlight, including an excellent peka feast at a small farmhouse restaurant arranged by our skipper. Dubrovnik was utterly beautiful. Our travel planner arranged a tour of the old town for us, which was a great orientation to the city. We also explored Lokrum and the Elafiti islands, each unique and beautiful. The whole trip was a highlight.

If you could take your trip again, what would you do differently?

I think we would spend more time so we could add additional time in Split, Korcula, Hvar, and other small towns along the coast. We may also consider staying closer to old town in Dubrovnik, although the hotel we were at was perfect and in a great location on the water for the kids.
