    • Explore!OperatorWritten February 2025

      We do still have one space available for a single room for the 17th May 2025 Upgraded - Highlights of Croatia. To book this trip for one person we would require £2950.

    Amelia

    Asked on December 27th, 2024

    Is it possible to do this tour in reverse? Start in Trogir and end in Dubrovnik?

    Tour Details
    • Explore!OperatorWritten December 2024

    Melanie

    Asked on March 21st, 2024

    Is the price of $1,720 per person based on 2 people sharing a room? Are there rooms that have 2 twin beds? Is it advisable to arrive a day prior to departure? If so, would we need to book the hotel for that night separately?

    Tour Details
    • Explore!OperatorWritten September 2022

      The trip to Croatia from 13th May to 20th May you're interested in is opened for booking. Unfortunately it's too early to guarantee the departure but I can assure you that this destination is popular and there is really a small risk it will be cancelled. According to our policy in case of cancellation of the tour from our side you're getting all the paid amount back.

  • J

    Jordan

    Asked on August 29th, 2022

    Are flights included in the holiday and would I be able to depart from Birmingham? also what would the single supplement be for this holiday?

    Flights / Transfers
    Price / Availability
    Single supplement
    • Explore!OperatorWritten September 2022

      The price you are seeing is the twin share land only price for the tour. However if you wished to book flights with Explore we can certainly do so. The flight schedules for September 2023 are not fully released by the airlines as yet, this will be towards the end of October. Our flight inclusive twin share price is from £1778 per person (based on flights from London Gatwick with Easyjet), if you wished to have a single room this would be an additional £480.
