Daniela Pinčević
I was born and raised in Croatia, and currently live in the northern countryside. I graduated with a degree in Sociology in Zagreb and was teaching for a short time before I got involved in tourism. Thanks to tourism I experienced Croatia from "top to bottom" and have been to very unique and remote places.
I am the proud mother of two children, a happy wife, and a travel enthusiast.
What places and activities do you specialize in?
"We do tailor-made active and non-active adventure trips with a cultural touch. Multi-sport, hiking, kayaking, river rafting and kayaking, sailing, cycling, sightseeing, cultural and foodie experiences. Experiential travel! "
How did you get involved in travel?
"Even though I have a degree in sociology and my path was toward science, I ended up in nature. My guide into the travel world was my husband, then-boyfriend, who was from the south of Croatia. I was involved in travel because of love and this is how my adventure begins.
To move more towards the southern part of the country, nine years ago I got a summer job on one little island in the Dubrovnik archipelago and was involved in sea kayak trips. This was my first contact with travelers from different parts of the world and it was a great experience for me. First, I was a little helper and over the year built my way up. I realized that I like people, and especially love sharing the history and showing the beauty of our country. And I like to see happy and satisfied people."
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"It's hard to choose one unique experience because every time I go somewhere new, there is something unique. However, one event was carved in my memory. Eight years ago I showed myself that I have more courage and strength than I thought. I had the opportunity to see the beauty of the open sea by kayaking from one island to another. I had never before kayaked far from shore and I was really terrified to have deep water all around me. In the end, it was eye-opening and very exciting. That was a great experience for me and now I can share it and recommend to others, especially as we create trips based on first-hand experiences. "

I have done similar bike trips in The Netherlands, on Mallorca, in Portugal and in Italy. The trip in Croatia, handled by Robi and Daniela, was, BY FAR, much better and more personal than any other bike trip I've taken. The level of service is beyond belief. The individual care and attention were much more than I had expected. Wonderful exposure to the wine industry in Croatia along with wine tasting. City tour of Dubrovnick by Antea was PHENOMENAL!! The recommendations for restaurants... read more

My husband, son and I visited Croatia this past October. The trip was planned by Robi and he was amazing every step of the way. During the planning process, he was extremely prompt in his responsiveness to my questions. I get overwhelmed when trying to plan a big trip with multiple stops along the way. So I let Robi take the reigns and plan our trip for us- And I'm so happy I did! I told him we wanted a trip with activity and also some relax time as well. He planned a perfect mix of... read more
