Perfection! 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!

Always Croatia delivered an AMAZING vacation from Venice to Croatia Plus a 7 day Cruise! Our family had an amazing experience with Always Croatia, which had us traveling on land from Venice to Opatija to Plitvice Lakes, then getting on a cruise from Split to Dubrovnik for 7 days. The best trip we've all had so far. Christy put together a wonderful itinerary that both the adults and our older children loved. Her attention to detail in picking out great hotels at each location was appreciated, along with restaurant recommendations. Any questions we had before and during the trip were answered promptly by Christy or Ivan...and it makes us want to vacation with them again! I highly recommend booking through Always Croatia for an amazing vacation!!!

My husband and I had a lovely time on… My husband and I had a lovely time on our Croatian cruise which was booked through Always Croatia. Christy helped us book the cruise and Ivan gave us detailed instructions how to find the cruise line office once we were in Split , Croatia. We had a cabin with a balcony and we were able to enjoy wonderful days at sea and beautiful island stops along the way. The food was good. The cruise director was very informative about the Croatian wines and history of the country. The other passengers were delightful. The daily swim stops were relaxing We saw breathtakingly beautiful scenery . All in all we enjoyed our cruise and would go again.

PERFECT, JUST PERFECT I can’t remember having a more perfect vacation from Pickup at my hotel to arrival at the most beautifully outfitted yacht Mama Marija II, my luggage delivered to my amazing stateroom with lush linens on a comfy queen size bed, to the happy and helpful faces of an amazing English speaking crew, gourmet meals prepared by star worthy chefs, and most notably the AMAZING Nina, our cruise director. There was never a moment where she didn’t have a smile on her adorable face. Miss you Nina. I don’t use the word “perfect”very often, but taking a week long sailing aboard the Mama Marija along the exquisite coast of Croatia was about as close to perfect as you can get.

What an amazing trip! What an amazing trip!! Croatia is such a beautiful country and Always Croatia was the perfect way to see it. Christy was fabulous in how she worked with us getting everything set up ahead of time and Zoran was the BEST cruise director! We felt ever port offered wonderful experiences. We never felt like we’d rather be doing something else. Weather got in the way of our itinerary a bit but the crew did a great job adjusting to that. The whole trip was a great balance in organized activities and your own free time. I’ve already recommended Always Croatia to a couple friends asking about vacationing in there now! Highly recommend 10 out of 10.
