Just wondered if the July 10th or 17th trips are likely to run?

Yes, the trip starting on 17.07.2026 will run with 4 people. If you would like to join, you are welcome.

Is this trip at all likely to run?

Unfortunately, we don't have a group starting on 24 October, but if you wish you can join the group from 10 October.

Could you please advise on the pick-up time and location for August 8?

I need to be at Dubrovnik Airport by 3:30 AM to catch my 6:00 AM flight to Dublin. I'm not sure if any airport shuttle is available that early—could you let me know?

Everything was well organised, and the pace was just right for a 5-day trip. The hotels were clean, comfortable, and well located.

This is an absolutely brilliant tour! Everything was extremely well-organised. Our tour guide (Mensur) was very knowledgeable, personable and flexible when circumstances dictated. He and the driver worked their hardest to give us the best experience. The local guides we encountered during the stops en route were all excellent. The accommodation was first rate all round. Honestly, I couldn't fault anything! The tour involved gave me a detailed knowledge of, and insight into, the Balkans, both in the past and the here and now. Thank you for everything!Show more

The Sofia to Dubrovnik: Express Cultural Expedition – Small Group Tour was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Everything was well organised, and the pace was just right for a 5-day trip. With only 9 people in the group, it felt personal and relaxed — a perfect size for this kind of journey. The hotels were clean, comfortable, and well located. A big thanks to our friendly and welcoming driver. And our guide, Igor, was absolutely outstanding — attentive, helpful, and truly committed to making sure everyone had a great time. The only suggestion I’d make is to include a guided tour in Dubrovnik. We explored it on our own, which was still enjoyable, but having it as part of the itinerary would’ve made the experience feel more complete. Overall, a wonderful tour I’d recommend to anyone looking to explore the Balkans in a short amount of time.Show more
