GBHighly recommend! I wanted to find a memorable and unique trip for me and my friends. I looked at many cruise companies and itineraries in Croatia. Then I found Always Croatia. Christy offered yacht cruises that included more excursions, better ships, top notch tour directors, at a reasonable price. She under promised and over delivered. Every day was filled with fabulous food, fun things to do, valuable and interesting information from the tour director, a beautiful comfortable boat, all surrounded by the beauty of Croatia. Would I recommend Always Croatia? ABSOLUTELY.

GBYou can trust Always Croatia to give you their best. Hiring Always Croatia was the best decision! Thanks to Christy and the people she hires our trip was flawless. We never had to worry about a thing. The drivers were always professional and on time to pick us up and take us to our next adventure. The hotels, food, and tours were all excellent. I would totally hire Christy again.

GBWonderful experience from the initial… Wonderful experience from the initial planning to the actual trip! Everything was clear and detailed as far as the booking. Everyone we worked with from the planner, to the cruise director, to the captain and the cook was top notch. We loved our trip and would go back again and again. It was filled with truly unique and authentic experiences we never could have booked on our on.

GBPerfection! I knew from the first time I had contact with Christy Kranjec at AlwaysCroatia.com that this was going to be a dream-come-true trip. She was so attentive, efficient and responsive (example: the detailed 14 page proposal with photos) that we knew the day-to-day activities on our itinerary would be the same. From Ivo, our driver from Cilipi to Montenegro, to Miro, our private guide in Kotor and beyond (a walking history lesson wrapped up in one warm and funny man), our 3 days in Montenegro were so interesting and so beautiful. The last 7 days we were treated like royalty aboard the Croatia-based MV Aurelia (modern luxury small ship of 36 passengers). We connected with everyone and had the friendliest and funniest group, led by our fabulous, knowledgeable cruise director, Mira. The up-close history of Croatia and the choice of attractions were top-notch. The quality, quantity and presentation of the breakfasts and lunches was superb (often local foods were highlighted) and were made even better by the terrific service duo of Josip and Robbie (they could be standup comedians in another life). The entire staff was so polite and could not do enough for us. Everything was planned and executed to a T, and it was difficult to accept on that last day that our brush with royalty had come to an end. We cannot say enough Thank you’s to everyone on board, to our group, to all the auxiliary staff, and to Christy as well. If you are planning a trip to this gorgeous part of the world, do not miss the chance to do it right with AlwaysCroatia!

GBMy experience on Katarina's Aurelia was… delightful. My experience on Katarina's Aurelia was wonderful. The Aurelia is a beautiful ship and our trip was very comfortable and well managed. Our group of passengers was, for the most part, a cohesive and lively one which was tremendously appreciated, as this might not have been the case. The crew were all just great. Jossep and Robert are lovely guys and took very good care of us. Kudos to Mira for her delivery of daily information about stops, changes to our schedule, local history as well as the strengths of the Croatian people in their efforts to service the tourist population that has been expanding. Croatia is handling this growth very well. Croatia is a gorgeous country, every aspect of it. The people are lovely overall. The food was clean and fresh. We were lucky to have clear skies and warmish seas to swim in. Early October was fine in this respect and I think most of the seasonal crowds had gone. I will say that our "itinerary", as presented by Always Croatia, was not .... how can I say? Consistant? Reliable? Available? It was unclear as we approached our sailing date what our itinerary was, because it had seemed to disappear. It was not on their website anymore. This seemed to affect most those passengers who had booked specifics, like "wine tours". My cruise experience was not affected but some disgruntled energies were felt onboard. My experience overall was affected by some lack of communication in the area of "transfers", before the trip. Fortunately the transfer was accomplished and the cruise experience was lovely.
