Island hopping was a great tour. Tourradar did a great job with all the structure and organizing to fit our needs and desires. They are very supportive and helpful. Did first half, Dubrovnik to Hvar and then Trogir, near Split, with Tourradar transport and then drove to Krka, Plitvice and Zagreb. That was a great way to do it. If you do Plitvice, you can skip Krka as the hikes and waterfalls are far more spectacular at Plitvice. Best olive oil at farmers market outside Trogir Old Town. All the staff and support were a real joy and helpful to make this a great trip. Would use them again and highly recommend this Tourradar team of Ira and Ivana with their behind the scenes support team.Show more
