GBPerfection! I knew from the first time I had contact with Christy Kranjec at AlwaysCroatia.com that this was going to be a dream-come-true trip. She was so attentive, efficient and responsive (example: the detailed 14 page proposal with photos) that we knew the day-to-day activities on our itinerary would be the same. From Ivo, our driver from Cilipi to Montenegro, to Miro, our private guide in Kotor and beyond (a walking history lesson wrapped up in one warm and funny man), our 3 days in Montenegro were so interesting and so beautiful. The last 7 days we were treated like royalty aboard the Croatia-based MV Aurelia (modern luxury small ship of 36 passengers). We connected with everyone and had the friendliest and funniest group, led by our fabulous, knowledgeable cruise director, Mira. The up-close history of Croatia and the choice of attractions were top-notch. The quality, quantity and presentation of the breakfasts and lunches was superb (often local foods were highlighted) and were made even better by the terrific service duo of Josip and Robbie (they could be standup comedians in another life). The entire staff was so polite and could not do enough for us. Everything was planned and executed to a T, and it was difficult to accept on that last day that our brush with royalty had come to an end. We cannot say enough Thank you’s to everyone on board, to our group, to all the auxiliary staff, and to Christy as well. If you are planning a trip to this gorgeous part of the world, do not miss the chance to do it right with AlwaysCroatia!

GBExcellent and professional! Just a quick note so say how much we enjoyed our cruise. Zoran was an excellent tour director and the crew on the Premier were top notch. I couldn’t believe the meals created in that small kitchen. Somehow, our captain managed to get the best docking spot in each port. The itinerary was a great balance between structure and free time. The pick up and drop off experience was smooth and much appreciated. The pre-trip materials were very good and helpful. We also made good use of the water bottles in the welcome gifts!

GBAlways Croatia was great to work with… Always Croatia was great to work with in the pre-planning phase and helped us understand our options and what we getting. Provided valuable recommendations and info we needed. During the trip, they continued to provide quick/responsive support to our questions. Lastly, every element of the trip exceeded our expectations! We have no hesitancy recommending the trip and Always Croatia to our friends.

GBHighly recommend! I wanted to find a memorable and unique trip for me and my friends. I looked at many cruise companies and itineraries in Croatia. Then I found Always Croatia. Christy offered yacht cruises that included more excursions, better ships, top notch tour directors, at a reasonable price. She under promised and over delivered. Every day was filled with fabulous food, fun things to do, valuable and interesting information from the tour director, a beautiful comfortable boat, all surrounded by the beauty of Croatia. Would I recommend Always Croatia? ABSOLUTELY.

GBI recommend Always Croatia Christy did a great job putting together our trip. She also worked with a travel guide in Greece to put together our trip there which preceded our Croatia trip. Both trips were incredible. Our Croatian guide, Zoran, made the trip fun and informative and showed us why he and his fellow Croatians are so proud of their country. We are already spreading the word to future travelers that Croatia is a beautiful and interesting country to visit.
