Travel Review: Custom Croatia Vacation Package, Split, Hvar, Dubrovnik, Diocletian Palace, Platvice Lakes, Elafiti Islands, etc

We had an amazing time in Croatia, the country is absolutely beautiful. One issue we encountered was in Dubrovnik - we were told to do a city tour the in the morning with a guide and then go to Elafiti Islands in the afternoon. All the tours to Elafiti Islands are day long tours (8 hours), so we were unable to do this. We assumed the travel agent is aware of tour options available and would have known we can not do a half day tour of the Islands. Also, as we have never driven in Croatia, it would be a nice if the agency can provide detailed directions of how to get to the hotels. We had to stop and ask for directions multiple times, which delayed our arrival to hotels by 30-45 minutes.
