    Hi Susan, thank you for letting us know your thoughts following your time with us in Europe. We organize certain tours to have more free time in order to accommodate those that might not wish to have as much structure as others- we are sorry to know this was not to your liking. We encourage our travellers to ask questions of their leaders, and we are confident that Stipa would have helped you navigate the links and information provided. We will highlight this for further training and development- thank you for sending along this critique. Your specified thought around the boat trip will also be included on ways to improve this itinerary when it is being reviewed. Susan, outside of the points raised, we do hope that you managed to make some fond memories while visiting such a beautiful part of the world

  • H

    Heather

    Asked on July 11th, 2025

    Just wondering if there is any capacity to provide this trip in the opposite direction - Slovenia to Split?

    Tour Details
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten July 2025

      At the moment, we don't have a tour that runs specifically from Slovenia to Split. However, we do offer some similar itineraries that you might enjoy exploring — for example, our Slovenia to Macedonia Real Food Adventure covers a range of beautiful destinations in the region with a unique culinary twist. You can view this and other available tours on our website, or I'd be happy to help you find something that suits your travel plans.

  • J

    Justin

    Asked on April 1st, 2025

    How much is the single supplement. Is it possible to get a single room instead of double for single use.

    Accommodation
    Single supplement
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten April 2025

      A single supplement is available on this trip with no exceptions. Availability is limited due to the small properties we use, and the cost is $705. We can ask our local operations team to check single-room availability at the time of request.

  • D

    Danielle

    Asked on November 29th, 2024

    Are flights included please.

    Flights / Transfers
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten November 2024

      Unfortunately, we do not book international flights this is something that you will have to do on your own. We'd be happy to assist in advising the correct airports to fly in and out off and arrange any additional accommodations / air port transfers if needed.

  • M

    Michele

    Asked on May 31st, 2024

    Is it possible on this trip to pay extra and get your own room as a solo traveller? Can you match the discounted 2024 price of $2564 for this tour? Does the accommodation in Bled overlook the lake? I will need to get back to Split at the end of the tour - what's your recommendation for the best direct way to get from Bled to Split.

    Accommodation
    Price / Availability
    Single supplement
    Transport
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten May 2024

      A single supplement is bookable for this trip, excluding Day 1 (Hotel). Availability is limited due to small properties we use. Accommodation in Bled is Milena Rooms & Apartments and we can check with our local operators about whether the accomodation overlook the lake. To get from Bled, Slovenia, to Split, Croatia, the best direct way involves a combination of driving or taking a bus, as there is no direct train or flight connection between these two locations. Driving is the most direct and flexible way to travel from Bled to Split. There are direct bus services that operate between Bled and Split, which can be a convenient and cost-effective option.

  • L

    Lynda

      Transfers are available from (SPU) split airport and departure ones available to (LJU) Ljubljana Airport for extra cost. A single supplement is bookable for this trip, excluding Day 1 (Hotel) for an additional NZD 600 onwards. Availability is limited due to small properties we use.
