Ivan and Sarah were very responsive throughout the planning and during our vacation. Our drivers and guides at all locations were timely, professional, and very engaging. The hotels in Split, Korcula and Dubrovnik were very good for the price we paid. The hotel in Hvar was massive with no character, problems with bathrooms in both rooms, smaller rooms than in the other three locations, and people were not nearly as friendly as in the other three hotels. Miko Ivanisevic who lead the bike tour on Hvar, and Donko who took us on the island boating and swimming excursion, were tremendous. George who drove us from Dubrovnik to Split and then again around Dubroknik later in our trip was superb. The tour with Dubravka Radis was excellent.
Hotel Reviews
Excellent for price. About 15-20 minute walk into the old town. Nice small spa area with pool, sauna and steam room. Good breakfast. Very nice people (and bartender!)
No character. People not friendly. Bathrooms had leaky showers, hand-helds that did not work. Rooms were small.
Good location, nice staff, clean room with nice view.
About 20-min walk to old town. can take #4 bus from just across street. Spacious rooms. Nice staff.
Activity Reviews
great walk. we diecided not to wait in line for boat to cross back across a lake (long line would have taken an hour to board) and instead walked. This was a grest decision. Hardly saw any other people on this segment and really enjoyed it.
Donko our boat captain was fabulous. Swim, and stops at two islands, were great.
Miko our tour guide was awesome. He is so proud of the local culture where he grew up. Could be doing anything he's so bright and personable, and chooses to give these tours. It was an awesome experience capped off with unexpected wine tasting at a small private winery.
Dubravka was a tremendous tour guide. Personable, proud of the culture, and patient with us as we had many questions!
