Luxury Croatia Vacation Review: Dubrovnik, Split, Hvar, Zagreb, Ston, Pula, Oyster Tasting, Hiking, Kayaking, Sailing, Cycling

Our travel agent was always responsive, listened to what we wanted, and crafted a trip that was truly wonderful.  Perhaps the most valuable part of such arrangements is scheduling reliable and comfortable transportation during the trip.  In two weeks there was not one transportation glitch, not one hotel glitch, not one guide glitch.  The drivers were all well-spoken and helpful, the cars or vans were top of the line.  When we went hiking or kayaking, cycling or sailing, they provided superb guides who oriented us to both the history and the natural environment.  The City guides were also generally good, the weakest was in Hvar, the best was in Split.  We also had an outstanding guide in Pula.  The motor yacht from Korcula to Hvar was in great shape and the crew was excellent.  The sailing was on a unique 38-foot boat with an even more unique and enjoyable captain, not just some bland Dufour or Bavaria boat.  The reason I mention all these elements is that they demonstrate our travel agent's knowledge and connections and how they can provide an outstanding experience.  If you take the time to learn about the destination and have some idea of what you want to do, she will craft an incredible trip for you.  I was very impressed!
