Croatia Trip Review: Dubrovnik, Split, Hvar, National Parks, Islands, History & Food Tour, 8-Day Travel

We had a wonderful trip. I did not know much about traveling in Croatia so we relied heavily on the travel company to plan our trip. It was a good balance of planned activities and freedom for us to explore. We greatly enjoyed each of our guided tours - the food and historical tour in Split and historical tour of Dubrovnik’s old city. Both of our guides were wonderful and made our travels much more enriching than if we had explored on our own. Our accommodations were great - each unique in their own ways, with friendly staff. 

The one change we would have made would have been to have more time in Plitvice to fully explore the park. We ran out of time due to the large crowds and the time it took to wait for transportation within the park. Otherwise, Ivana did a great job helping us to fit everything we wanted to do into the time we had, while still making it feel like a relaxing vacation. And she managed to do it all in a very short time frame since we planned our trip a bit last minute!
