Always Croatia Bewertungen 

We did this trip with 5 other Mom/Daughter (just graduated college) duos. It was the absolute best time. We got to meet so many amazing people on the trip as well. The girls had several “Grammies & Grandpas” looking out for them. Both the history and tours of the islands were great. Vis was a the only one lacking in what the other islands had to offer in my opinion. The cruise director Djuka was amazing. My daughter got a rash and we were taken to the hospital and helped thru the entire process with him right by our side! One night the girls wanted to do karaoke and he borrowed a machine from a sister ship so they could and just about everyone on the ship joined in! It was the perfect combination of eat breakfast, swim, eat lunch then explore a new island every day. There was time to really get to know other people on board and check out each island. The dinner at the family farm was such a wholesome and engaging experience. That gave us a true sense of the Croatian life. The food was different every day which gave us an opportunity to try new and native dishes. The desserts were delicious. Overall I’d take this cruise again! Croatia is an incredible place to visit and there is so much to see and do on most islands. Always Croatia did a wonderful job making this a memorable experience.

Christy at Always Croatia thoroughly helped us plan the land tour and sea adventure from Zagreb to Dubrovnik. Everything went as planned and on time with friendly informative and interesting local drivers, tour guides and crew staff. Hotels were fabulous. We highly recommend Taste Zagreb walking tour with Karmela. Plitvice Lakes and National Park Krka waterfalls were absolutely gorgeous. The Croatian culture was truly felt at the home of a local prosciutto maker with excellent dinner and music. Christy was very informative before our trip and always answering our questions in a timely manner. All details were given prior to our trip and well organized. Our balcony cabin on the MV premier was very spacious and clean.Enjoyed the swim stops in the bluest of blue crystal clear waters using the ships SUP and noodles. They served excellent food with many local dishes.We would highly recommend Always Croatia.

We booked a Croatia cruise and additional tours, all arranged by Sarah at Always Croatia. Our cruise from Split to Dubrovnik was beautiful with a wonderful staff that was eager to help in any way they could. Our balcony room was comfortable, and the food was great. Our cruise director, Djuka, was amazing, had a great personality, and helped with any questions we had. We had arranged tours before and after the cruise also arranged by Sarah, spanning the entire country. From the transfers, to the tour guides who were all incredible, to the special activities that were planned, the hotels they chose, everything was great. The trip went smoothly and we didn't have to worry about anything. We also had day trips to Slovenia and Montenegro, which I would highly recommend. We loved this trip and would highly recommend Always Croatia for their knowledge of the countries, and making everything outstanding!

It was our first time working with Always Croatia and they exceeded our expectations at every step. I represented an organization that wanted to charter a ship and the ship (& crew) they recommended was simply WOW. They also assisted in hotel accommodations (5*) before the trip and all airport/hotel/port transfers. Their selection of our Cruise Director far exceeded our expectations. Everything ran seamlessly, which is amazing for a trip organizer such as myself

As a traveler who has experienced everything from large ocean cruises, small group tours to fully independent adventures, I can confidently say that Always Croatia exceeded every expectation. Traveling with a group of six family members ranging in age and interests is no easy task — but Christy and Sarah handled it well.
From the start, they took the time to understand the unique dynamic of our group. They asked thoughtful questions, listened carefully, and crafted an itinerary that struck the perfect balance of activity, relaxation, culture, and culinary delight. The main portion of the trip was a 7-day cruise aboard the Premier from Split to Dubrovnik, and the ship itself was a standout — modern, comfortable, with spacious rooms (by ship standards), fantastic local cuisine, and a staff that made us feel truly welcome.
Our cruise director, Djuka, was exceptional. He was fun, engaging, and most importantly, a clear communicator who kept everyone informed and at ease. His insights and humor added to the experience.
What really made this trip shine, though, were the curated experiences that Always Croatia layered in. From exploring historic towns, truffle hunting, oyster farming, and enjoying the local wine scene, every day offered something new and authentic. A highlight was an evening hosted by a local farm family, where we were treated to a farm-to-table meal, flowing wine, and live folk music — an unforgettable night.
After the cruise, Christy and Sarah organized a driver and local guide that took us through the stunning coastal region from Dubrovnik into Montenegro. The logistics were flawless, and again, the pace was tailored to suit our group — enriching without ever feeling rushed.
Croatia itself is breathtaking — incredibly clean, safe, and full of warm, welcoming people. But it was Always Croatia that turned this into one of the most memorable trips I've taken. Their thoughtful planning, deep local connections, and personal touches made all the difference.
Highly recommend Always Croatia for anyone looking to experience Croatia with experiences that you can not create on your own. We’ll be traveling with them again.

I’ve had Croatia on my bucket list for awhile now. My husband and I went from 5/29 to 6/6 with Always Croatia. We had a FABULOUS time! Every hotel, every guided tour, every eating experience was so perfect. We enjoyed all of our drivers and all of our guides too. Each step of the way, we were delighted! Thanks so much to Christy and her team for planning such a wonderful Croatian experience for us and for supporting us so well before and while we were there.

We were impressed with every aspect of the trip, from the quick response to every question sent prior to the trip, the beautiful boat, extremely friendly staff and excursions, it was a wonderful vacation. I would highly recommend Always Croatia!!

I hadn't traveled in ages and Always Croatia arranged the perfect trip for my dream vacation. Christy made me feel special when she told me "it was my time" to see Croatia. The Premier was an excellent ship and the crew was friendly and funny. Tour guide Ivana was knowledgeable and made sure to engage with everyone. I enjoyed trying new food on the ship and made friends with everyone. We even set up a WhatsApp account to keep in touch on the last night if the cruise. Every port was incredible and all of the excursions created memories I'll never forget! Thank you Always Croatia🥰

I cannot say enough good things about our Always Croatia trip. The crew handled every detail from delicious meals (with food accommodations), to planned excursions, to swim stops with paddleboards and a seabob. I would never have been able to set up the experiences that we participated in. Their team was also very helpful before the cruise setting up our post-cruise activities. They really went above and beyond. What an incredible experience!

My family of 9 was thrilled with our Always Croatia vacation on the MS Premier, a beautiful high quality ship with exceptional staff. Our cabin was comfy, cleaned daily and the balcony offered room to dry clothes.
Kruno, our director, presented cultural and historical talks we enjoyed plus every day was filled with great activities. We were constantly learning.
Our biking experiences were top notch. Excellent e-bikes guides took us through villages and hillsides with great stops for wine and food.
My husband and I extended 3 days to Zagreb and Plitvice lakes. It was so worth it. The drive to the Park let us see more of he countryside. The Lakes are truly unbelievably gorgeous! Don’t go all the way to Croatia without seeing this wonder!
Always Croatia made sure every part of our trip was covered! We would recommend them and hope to travel to Croatia again.

I would highly recommend Always Croatia. Had the best experience on my vacation. Our Head Tour Guide Zoran was extremely knowledgeable about current and historical events. He made everything fun and was very patient. The entire staff was wonderful. Great Captain who knew how to make us feel welcomed. Croatia was absolutely stunning and thank you Always Croatia.

I took my husband to Croatia for a surprise birthday trip and he loved it. Croatia is a beautiful country and Always Croatia was able to show it to us through an amazing private tour. From the wineries to a dinner in an abandoned village to a private boat tour, everything was perfect. The guides were knowledgeable and friendly. The food was so fresh and delicious. It was the perfect trip and we look forward to going back again.

So grateful that we found Sarah that walked us through our booking for Always Croatia! Top notch customer service! She was honest, communicative, responsive and just a 10 star FABULOUS agent! Our cruise to the Croatian islands was a fairy tale and so magical due to the 8 crew members efforts. They had daily activities that were over our expectations. The MS Premier was beautiful , we had all the amenities you could possibly ask for. The 35 customers all got along which made our cruise even more special… if you are hesitating to book…. Do it now as you will not regret it! We felt the price was very reasonable for the services we received! The meals were spectacular … we will be back on Always Croatia and hoping Sarah will be our booking agent !

We had a wonderful time in Croatia and Montenegro thanks to Christy and her team. Trip was organized, hotels were wonderful , guides were superb and Christy designed an intinerary exactly like we requested. We did a private tour which we could modifty as we wanted. If needed we could always reach someone for last minute questions while traveling!!
I highly recommend Always Croatia!! Thanks so much Christy and the entire team!!

I would like to thank you for the wonderful team you are working with. We had a fantastic stay on the MV Premier and in Croatia. Everything was so well orchestred. We really felt welcome in your country.

A special mention to our cruise director Sinisa and the crew members. The services were excellent ,food and cleanness of the ship.We navigated safely with our humble and discret captain.

If I had to say something will be about the soundproofing of the dining area. When we were all together, it could become very very loud.  Also for the dinner time, light could be beamdown for a cosier atmosphere.

I would have paid a little bit more to have wine and beer included during meals. The cooks did a splendid job in such a small kitchen, the presentation, taste and hot food were top.

We enjoyed our visits and the guides were excellent however the whisper kit not always clear a lot of static waves.

I would recommend Always Croatia to friends because, it's an exquisite way to discover islands, marvellous sea and authentic people from Croatia.

If I want to resume our stay ,I would say, disponibility. Ponctuality, kindness and a surprising destination.

We had a wonderful trip! Loved the boat. All the tours were wonderful. We especially liked our tour guide on the food tour! All the food and wine was delicious! Everyone we met on our boat became our friends. It was such a fun group of people. We enjoyed all the swim stops. We met several people at dinner when we ate on our own that weren’t happy with their boats. They wrote down all the information on our boat and Always Croatia. The hotels you picked for us to stay in were also wonderful especially the hotel in Montenegro. Thanks for planning such a wonderful vacation for us!

Always Croatia, I cannot thank you enough for the amazing trip. I am so glad we found your company and I am telling anyone who is interested in going to Croatia to look you up. Everything ran as smoothly as possible from the moment the driver picked us up in Venice. All the accommodations were lovely, and every experience was unique. The guides provided interesting facts that kept our attention, and they always gave great recommendations, as did the drivers.
One of our favorite days was the island-hopping excursion in Hvar. Antonia and Ivan were lovely and great to talk to. Vis is amazing. We also enjoyed the off the beaten path excursions like the prosciutto family. We enjoyed meeting the family and the singers were so talented.

Our cooking class was cut short because we were stuck in traffic but what an amazing family and way of life. It was a great last meal for the whole group and was so intimate. We were able to reflect on the entire trip and share our favorite memories and give thanks for each other and everything we have been given. For me this was one of my favorites along with our meal at Konoba Dubrava and the band. The band was super lively and everyone in that section of the restaurant got up and danced. It was a fun party atmosphere. The Peka was so delicious and we ended up eating there one more time before we left 🙂

Kudos to Ivan who kept us updated with any changes in the itinerary. I really appreciated having the app at my fingertips.

Thank you again and can’t wait for our next booking with you.

Amazing, Fantastic trip! Always Croatia customized our land trip. No cookie cutter trip!
Hotels were beautiful and transfers were seamless. Guides were knowledgeable and exuded enthusiasm for Croatian culture. A special experience visiting my Grandmother's home town. Our driver Felipe acted as an impromptu interpreter and investigator that resulted in a meeting with my second and third cousins i never previously knew.
Croatian House party in Trogir was so much fun and special. Cruise on MS premier was great.. shared with a small group of lovely people of similar ages(intentionally planned by Sarah, our trip advisor). Cruise director, Djuka was knowledgeable, entertaining, well organized and involved in all aspects of the cruise. Gorgeous Dalmatian islands!!
I highly recommend Always Croatia!.

Cruise and land package - Dalmatia. The 'mini-cruiser' small boat cruise is the center piece of a custom tailored tour. 19 couples were aboard (full boat), each couple with different land tour add-ons, before and/or after the cruise. Our package included an overnight stay in Kotor, Montenegro prior to the cruise, followed by 5 days touring up through Plitvice Falls, Zagreb and Slovenia. Always Croatia did a good job of coordinating all the contractors for all the different tours, a challenging experience for those familiar with vacation travel. In spite of some weather days, it was a very enjoyable 2 weeks. One highlight was a local family dinner in a small Croatian village, with Christy, the young founder of the company. Party night - lots of excellent local wine. Only 3 years old, the company goes the extra mile to take care of it's clients. Highly recommended.

Wow! Always Croatia went above & beyond to make our first visit to this beautiful country spectacular in so many ways. Our trip specialist, Sarah Diaz, was absolutely wonderful to work with. She (in San Francisco) & Ivan (in Croatia) answered every question I had so quickly. She even arranged a 3 night stay in Lapad/Dubrovnik before our 7-night yacht cruise with a fabulous day in Montenegro. Hotel More was stunning with a balcony seaview room; awesome Cave bar; stunning sunsets; and an easy walk along the promenade for shops & restaurants, all in a quiet area after a busy day in Dubrovnik. Easy walk to bus stop to Pile Gate/Dubrovnik Walls. Emailed us a full list of restaurants for every island we visited. Cable car tickets for a wonderful dinner at Panorama. A full-day private tour guide to Montenegro (Mario was wonderful) - was absolutely fabulous! Easy quick drive over the border; beautiful visit by boat to Lady of the Rocks in Kotor Bay; private local guide in Montenegro Square (we learned so much history of the area); ended our day (our 49th anniversary) with wine & cheese at a stunning winery in Savina on a gorgeous mountain with breathtaking views. Private transfers from airport, to hotel, to yacht, etc. all included. Our 7-night cruise on the MS Premier was absolutely wonderful. Excursion included at each port with overnight stay; morning swims in beautiful coves; delicious meals; comfortable balcony cabin & wonderful crew. Just 38 passengers.
Unfortunately our cruise was cut short due to a family health emergency back in USA. Our cruise director was a godsend & helped with all arrangements necessary & got us to the catamaran to Split in an unbelievable rainstorm. Totally appreciated.
Always Croatia treated us like family! Highly recommend this company & a visit to Croatia, an absolutely stunning country. We hope to visit again one day & will definitely book our travels with Always Croatia. Thank you Christy, Sarah & Ivan for making our trip unforgettable in so many wonderful ways!
