We had some doubts about how this tour would operate. The tour operator is in China, and the tour is in Croatia. How could this possibly work? Very well, in fact. The tour operator was always very responsive to any questions I had. There is a local operator in Croatia who was both pro active, advising us of what and who was coming next, and responsive whenever I had questions. We were setup with a driver who was courteous and helpful. He knew quite a bit to tell us as we went along, but was not intrusive. The tour arranged excellent hotels, had very good and interesting suggestions for restaurants, and a fine itinerary. When bad weather meant that we missed our trip to Hvar and the Blue Cave, they were ready with a substitute. In short, this was a memorable tour. Expensive, but strongly recommended anyhow.

David • traveled in September
Drivers excellent. Friendly, conversant and knowledgeable. Guides informative, friendly if a little rehearsed and determined to get the information across even while you were responding to it. Dubrovnik hotel fabulous views, extra friendly and helpful staff, good facilities. Split hotel clean, staff helpful and friendly but the location is [Removed in Moderation]! 4-star hotel it is not! Three at best and in the middle of an industrial wasteland. Surrounded by factories, truck depots and dust and drainage works with no amenities for miles. I will not be back.
