Dear Alan and Ivana,

The trip you planned for us could not have been better. Every accommodation was lovely, the guides were so accommodating and knowledgeable, and the schedule was just perfect. Your country is absolutely beautiful and at every turn there is another awesome sight!

Our weather was one sunny day after another except for the slight rainfall at Plitvice National Park. That actually worked in our favor as the little bit of rain and clouds kept the crowds to a minimum.

And our new favorite hotel is the Hotel Monte Mulini in Rovinj! We had such a lovely 2 days there in that beautiful setting on the Adriatic Sea.

We thank you for your efforts on our behalf and will definitely recommend your company to anyone we know who will be planning a trip to Croatia or Slovenia.

Thank you so much,
Janine and Jim Cober

Tour of Croatia

September 2013.

Dear Diana and Alan,

Sorry this has taken so long but we only got back to Perth yesterday and have been unable to send emails from our ipad.

We had a very enjoyable time and were very impressed how smoothly everything went, well organised, great hotels and knowledable guides. The steps everywhere were a challenge but we have come back with stronger legs! We loved Dubrovnik and would probably have spent more time there – so amazing. The private dinner was very special in the olive grove with those amazing views in Hvar. The only thing we might have changed on the itinerary was Vis which although quieter than Hvar was a bit similar. Also the boat ride, which was a lovely idea but it was quite rough and you thumped through the water holding on for dear life! Loved the lakes – very beautiful.

A very impressive trip and we will highly recommend you to e... >>> read more>>>

Discover Croatia

Alan -

Thanks for putting together a great trip. We thoroughly enjoyed it. The country was beautiful, the guides were very knowledgeable and prompt, and all accommodations were good. You had a nice mix of land, water, activity, and free time. At first I was surprised that the tours began at 5:00 pm, however, as our guide pointed out, it certainly was a good time because all the other tour groups were gone and we could actually hear and see everything. Good idea. The hotels were in a good location and the staff very helpful. It was such a relief right from the start, the pickup in the airport in Zagreb, when our transfer agent was on time, and our luggage was not, and he was able to help us through that process. I will definitely recommend you to all my friends.

Have a great day - you provided me with many!

Alan,

I want to send a big thank you for organizing our family trip to Croatia in August. The whole trip was an absolute delight - well balanced between our expectations of relaxation, activities, and sightseeing. The handoffs between the guides, drivers, and hotels was seamless and we enjoyed many insightful conversations with your staff. Our favorite part of the trip was probably the private yacht rides around Hvar - the clear waters and private beaches was so unique in our extensive travels. Also, thanks for responding promptly to my questions during the trip - that made the trip very stress-free.

Anyways, I'm pretty sure that will not be my last visit to Croatia. Would love to head back even just for more fish and Peke.

Hvala!
Alex

Alan,

We just wanted to send a THANK YOU!!!! The itinerary that was planned for us and the professionalism of your staff was astounding. As corporate travel managers we realize the importance of attention to all of the details and Secret Dalmatia exceeded all of our expectations.

Every agenda item was planned and addressed to the smallest detail. Every vendor we encountered to provide services was spectacular!

You met every item on our wish list from the wine tasting to cooking classes and the boating adventures. Croatia is a beautiful country and with your assistance we were able to experience not only the scenery but the true spirit of hospitality offered for visitors to Croatia. We sincerely felt like special visitors. Meeting with Tatiana in her home for cooking was such a wonderful experience the food was not only fantastic but her warmth and char... >>> read more>>>
