Croatia

Our trip was super fun. The places were beautiful and interesting and the trip was well-planned and well-mapped. The Adriatic Sea is super clean here for great swimming after our biking trips.

Great bike trip. The self-guided option was planned out perfectly. Andre was excellent and provided excellent care for us. Definitely glad I had an e-bike on this tour. Very very challenging mountains even on an electric bike 😊

We had a great time exploring the Dalmation Islands with VBT via yacht (Futura). We went toward the end of May and the weather was great (not too hot, with some rain), and for the most part, not too inundated with tourists. The scenery was beautiful, the rides were challenging (recommend e-bikes), the food, excursions, and guides were great!

This was our first VBT trip and we were thrilled beyond words! The yacht we were on was so beautiful with great spaces to relax and unwind after a day of bike riding and wonderful cultural experiences. The islands offer a hilly bike ride and having an e-bike was very important to our enjoyment of our biking journeys each day. Our guides, Marko and Milan were just amazing! The logistical dynamics of this trip - getting our bikes to each of the islands we visited to ride - were challenging but our leaders were “on top of it!” We had two “trainee” tour guides (Adja and Petar) who were clearly not “new” to biking adventures with VBT. They each provided additional support to our leaders, as well as, wonderful insights and conversation with each and every fellow passenger. We were blessed with amazing weather during our trip week. We can highly, unreservedly, recommend this bike and yacht experience with VBT. Thank you!!!!

The Croatia bike trip was simply outstanding. First and foremost, we could not have gotten better guides from Croatia to show us the islands of Hvar and Brac. The culture, the scenery, the comraderie could not have been better. Plus we learned how to ascend and descend rather large hills! Would absolutely do it again.

VBT Croatia was a fantastic experience. Our trip exceeded our expectations and my adult son said it was a “trip of a lifetime!” It was a perfect blend of guided and self guided. The guides had great personalities and created a great experience! I loved the variation of experiences, loved the food recommendations, loved the scenery and loved all the group interaction. I am ready for the next VBT trip! Amazing trip! Thank you.

This was a wonderful trip to start traveling again! Even with lots of rain at the start, we had beautiful scenery and good temperatures. The group was wonderfully good natured, and the guides were fantastic. Irena and Matej knew so much about both countries in terms of geography and history and culture! They went, well, literally above and beyond? The castle wasn't even on the itinerary, and now I know all the best gelaterias in the area. I look forward to making more memories and friends on a future Country Walkers adventure.

Our knowledgable guides gave me much insight into the history and culture of these two countries while enjoying invigorating hikes and walks along enchanting trails around lakes, through mountains and along scenic gorges. I enjoyed the occasional periods of free time where I could explore the towns on my own which was very easy to do. The citizens are very friendly and welcoming, most everyone speaks English and I always felt safe.

We had a great trip thanks in a large part to our guides and our Croatian hosts! Dani and Dani were a great guiding team, who adapted the itinerary to meet our needs. They were thoughtful, informative and knowledgable. I would highly recommend this trip. You will learn so much about the wonderful and beautiful Dalmatian coast.

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!!!
