Croatia

Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

This was my first mother and daughter trip overseas to Croatia. This also happened to be my first overseas trip in over 15 years.

With that said, I had a lot of questions being an amateur traveler and a lot of follow up questions posed to the travel agent. Our agent was so patient throughout the entire process, thorough in her responses, quick to respond, and provided guidance and eased my anxiety about this trip. She listens to what you are seeking to accomplish on the trip and the type of experiences you want. As a client, you should also take the responsibility of being very specific on what you want, including accomodations and experiences.

I would definitely recommend Zicasso and this company. Thank you for enabling my mom and I to enjoy the most wonderful and beautiful experience of our lives.

What were the most enjoyable or memorable parts of your trip?

Both my mom and I agree that Plitvice Lakes, Zagreb and Hvar were our favorities places. Croatia is indeed fhe most beautiful places on earth. I was able to see and partake in their customs and everyday life (marketplaces, caffe bars) and learn about their history specific to each location we visited.

Since this was my real first overseas trip, I was very hesitant to drive 6 hours in one day with a rental car. I had to drive from Zagreb to Plitvice Lakes to Split. The driving was one of the biggest accomplishments in my life on foreign soil and the drive through the old route recommended by this agent was indeed such a memorable experiences. I would higjly recommend fhis drive theoughtthe country. It was peaceful and healing.

If you could take your trip again, what would you do differently?

I wish I had more days to travel, as our trip to Croatia entailed four separate cities and also a visit to Plitvice Lakes (Zagreb, Split, Hvar, Dubrovnik). The tight schedule was exhausting for a new traveler and my elderly mother; however it was an itinerary I had agreed to prior to the trip.

I would skip Split altogether. The hotel's service was absolutely amazing, but the breakfast was disappointing and they are under construction so they started their work from 6am. It was ridiculously loud at night from the sounds outside (you can hear everything) and morning due to construction. The travel guide I had here was also disppointing.
