Croatia

The beauty of the Dalmation Islands is stunning. Very scenic views of the Adriatic Sea and coastal villages. Routes were along quiet, well maintained, but narrow roads without shoulders. That said, motorists were courteous and I never felt unsafe. The two long routes had challenging hill climbs for analog road bikes. We went in May, before the summer tourist season, a good choice.

Our self guided trip was fantastic! Terrific in country support provided by Andre made it easy to cycle along the beautiful Croatian roads and explore an amazing country. Great GPS!

The Croatia Bike and Boat trip through the Dalmatian Islands was absolutely spectacular. As a less avid cyclist than most , I was pleasantly surprised with how much more scenery you are able to enjoy on a cycling trip that you would never be able to were you just on foot at a destination or in a car. The scenery was magnificent and the cycling routes were so well described by the GPS. The staff when both cycling and boating were excellent. The Croatian people, scenery and food were top notch. Accommodations on the boat and at the hotels were great.

Highly recommend VBT. Routes, team leaders were welcoming, informative & professional.

Just returned yesterday from Croatia. This was our first VBT tour and I'm sure it will not be our last. Our guides, Marko and Vanja were exceptional and we hated to leave them. They went above and beyond with recommendations for restaurants, things to see and do during the tour as well as the post tour extension in Split.

This was a fantastic trip taken at the perfect time of the year in September. We were able to ride, swim and dine in gorgeous settings every day. The chance to meet the locals in their homes for dinners and to hear of their lives in Croatia was priceless. We were very fortunate to have two excellent guides in Nevenka and Natasha; they were both so knowledgeable and accommodating, we couldn't have asked for better leaders!

The entire experience was terrific. This trip consisted of full days of beautiful walks and a variety of interesting and fun activities. The hotels were amazing; each room had beautiful views and were fully equipped. The group size was perfect and we all got along very well. The icing on the cake was, without a doubt, the exceptional leadership of Vida and Dani. They are incredibly warm, kind, knowledgeable, fun and attentive in all the right ways. I would follow them anywhere.

This experience with Country Walkers was absolutely outstanding. I had heard great things about CW from friends who have been on different CW tours (almost all of the participants in this tour had done multiple CW tours before), and this tour did not disappoint. I understand why CW has so many repeat clients, and I will definitely be one of them! The guides, Irene and Vida, were just superb - knowledgable, thoughtful, funny, and incredibly helpful. They made the tour! The entire group gelled with them perfectly and their good humor and enthusiasm for their countries were so admirable. I learned so much about the complex history of the region, and the combination of walking and talking was just right every day. The accommodations everywhere were first class and lovely, and the arranged group meals just right. I honestly cannot think of one thing that could have made this experience better. Another special shoutout to Vida and Irene, who were both spectacular and worked so well together. Already looking forward to many more CW experiences! thank you for a great week.

This walking tour was awesome. The different venues, hikes and lodging was all terrific . The single factor that made the trip so good, were the two Guides. Dani and Dani were so thoughtful, knowledgeable, and their trips to lunches and meals and wine tasting, at various venues were remarkable. Getting to know some of the locals at these venues, and visiting places off the beaten path, were one of the high points, in my view.

I have been on multiple bicycle and walking adventures and this was one of the best. The guides were exceptional. They were from Croatia and they did a great job leading us on challenging walks every day and, at th4e same time, educating us on their country. The hotels where we stayed were very nice and well located for our walks and for us to spend free time. The morning breakfast and other meals were excellent. I would highly recommend the Croatia - Dalmation Coast Adventure to my friends and anyone who is relatively physically fit. A fantastic adventure!!!
