Anthony • traveled in December, 2025
We really enjoyed our Croatian driving trip! Our car was nice. The itinerary was paced just right. We stayed two nights in Opatjia, and we recommend doing a day trip to Rovijn. We also did not stay in Split, our hotel was in Trogir. Our hotel in Trogir was so quaint and nice. Hotel Tragos. Be aware if you stay in Trogir that the church bells ring at 0530. However, we just returned from Morocco, and you have the same issue with call to prayer being announced over speakers at 0530. Communication was very good from the operator and they were patient with all my questions. Highly recommend this if you are looking for a self-driving experience.

This self-catered driving tour of Croatia and Mostar was beyond our expectations. The route was comprehensive and of course allowed for “side trips” as things caught our eye enroute to the next hotel. Flexibility and freedom! The car was great and every hotel had something special to offer. Free breakfasts, pools, lovely staff, helpful locals, beach, historical sites and natural beauty all rolled into one. Would definitely do more self-catered driving tours with Tour Radar.

I loved this holiday. The pace in the ship was relaxing and very enjoyable. The swimming stops , the Islands visited, the amount of passengers was perfect. It was a great group of people. I recommend this experience. I went with my Daugther and we both were very happy.

Best tour companies for Croatia tours
Based on what our travelers have shared, Croatia's top active tour options really come down to your travel style and budget. INTRO Travel has built quite a following for their sailing tours - their guide Anna keeps getting mentioned in reviews for making the trips both fun and informative. She knows her stuff and has a way of bringing the coastal history to life while keeping the mood light. If you're into cycling, Laganini runs excellent bike tours that hit a sweet spot between active and luxurious. Their guides Tonci and Toma lead really well-planned routes, and at day's end you're staying in quality hotels and enjoying proper local meals. It's more expensive than some options but our customers say it's worth it for the personal attention and thoughtful details. Those wanting to dig deeper into Croatian culture should look at Travel Jaz - they handle all the logistics smoothly and their guide Josip is particularly good at weaving stories about local traditions and history throughout the journey. For travelers watching their budget, G Adventures runs solid group tours at better prices. Just keep in mind the hotels can be a bit basic sometimes, but the actual touring part is well organized. Their groups tend to bond quickly since you're all sharing the experience together.
Best places to start your Croatia tour
Split stands out as the main jumping-off point for Croatia tours with 45 of our travelers choosing to start here, followed by Dubrovnik with 20 departures and Zagreb with 14. The coastal gems of Trogir and also Zadar see smaller numbers with 6 and 5 tour starts. Our booking patterns show you should lock in your plans about 4.5 months ahead, especially if you're eyeing those popular island-hopping tours in summer. Early mornings work best for exploring the UNESCO sites in these cities - you'll beat both the crowds and the heat. This timing trick is especially useful at Plitvice Lakes, where morning light creates ideal conditions for photos and you'll have more space to enjoy the trails.

Best time to visit Croatia
- Winter 2025 / 2026
Winter visits to Croatia give you a fresh take on this coastal destination. The popular 6-day route from Zagreb to the coast works especially well in winter months, when Plitvice Lakes' wooden walkways are blissfully free of summer crowds. Our travelers tell us how much they value the local guides, who share rich cultural stories during walks through Zagreb's medieval Upper Town and Split's Diocletian's Palace. Another excellent cold-season choice centers on Split's historic heart, blending coffee culture and city discoveries with excursions to Plitvice Lakes National Park. These tours shine in winter as you'll find space to capture perfect waterfall photos and spot wildlife like deer and rare birds in the parks. The atmosphere feels relaxed and authentic, letting you experience local life - whether you're warming up in Split's traditional coffee houses or walking Dubrovnik's ancient walls, watching winter waves crash against the rocks below.

- Spring 2026
Spring shows off Croatia's best cycling routes, especially along the Dalmatian Coast. The quiet roads of Hvar and Korcula islands work perfectly in April and May, with daily rides between 27 and 62 kilometers. Having support vehicles nearby means you can take those big climbs at whatever speed suits you - like the scenic route up to Hvar's peak past old lavender fields. The spring walking tours are excellent too, with small groups of 6-7 people exploring Plitvice Lakes on wooden walkways and heading into the quieter parts of Paklenica National Park. Our travelers particularly like mixing active mornings with cultural stops; you might cycle through olive groves, then spend afternoons wandering Split's Roman ruins or tasting wines at family vineyards.

- Summer 2026
Summer brings our most popular sailing trips between Split and Dubrovnik. The routes take you to perfect swimming spots in hidden bays and to islands like Mljet, where you can bike around saltwater lakes and explore the national park. The premium boats offer proper comfort - air-conditioned cabins and plenty of space on the sun decks, while stops at beach clubs in Hvar and Makarska add some nightlife options. The land tours work well in summer too - you'll walk Dubrovnik's walls early before the crowds appear and take trips to places like Korcula where local hosts serve traditional meals and share stories about island life.
- June 2026 335 tours
- July 2026 319 tours
- August 2026 popular 340 tours
- Fall / Autumn 2026
Autumn is when Croatia's food scene really shines, with coastal tours focusing on local flavors. The Peljesac Peninsula's vineyards are at their best in September and October - you can sample the local Plavac Mali wines and visit olive oil makers. Walking through Korcula's inland villages shows you authentic island life, with stops for homemade brandies and regional dishes. Our small groups of 6-7 people can easily fit into family restaurants and learn about Dalmatian cooking. The sea stays warm enough for swimming but you'll find emptier beaches and more chances to connect with locals.
