Croatia & Its Islands From $4,899 $4,399 pp* Small Ship Cruising on the Adriatic Coast

Loved the itinerary, people, yacht & food!!!

There was nothing not to like nor enjoy!

It was well organized, food was good, excursions were right on par with the area. Boat and rooms were clean. You provided good options when we could not travel out of port, because the seas were too rough.

I HATE SURVEYS. COLLETTE IS VERY ORGANIZED AND ALL DETAILS ARE COVERED COMPLETELY.

I was hurt by one of the crew members on my right ring finger, and even though hurting a lot, I tried not to let it affect my demeanor so as not to impact the rest of the groups fun, I have yet to hear from Collette regarding my cut finger and possible refunds for tours not taken.

Great tour. Great manager. Great people to travel with.

Boat experience was great but could have had 2 meals a day instead of 3. Krka park waterfalls were fantastic. All in all a very good tour.

A perfect representation of Croatia. It’s beauty, it’s history and it’s hope for the future

We should have spent more time in Zagreb. At least two days! Vodice hotel was terrible. Not near the town, restaurant service was horrible. Strongly suggest another hotel in Vodice, or frankly, go to the national park and then head to Zagreb. Too much time in Vodice!!!!! On another note, our tour guide Jegor, was excellent! He was knowledgable and made sure that all of our needs were met. He had excellent recommendations for dinner and his educational seminars while we were on the ship traveling were excellent! The ships crew were friendly and tried to meet our needs. The one issue that I had was the hot tub/jacuzzi was unusable most of the time. I wanted to use it at night or first thing in the morning and it was NEVER hot! I spoke to the ship staff and there were always excuses. VERY DISAPPOINTED!

The history and beauty of the country. The tour guides were excellent as were the accommodations.

Perfect trip, perfect boat, perfect destination.

Elizabeth Simmons, the boat and crew

The Yacht and crew were exceptional. The scenery was absolutely gorgeous! We loved swimming off the yacht in the Adriatic Sea. All of our local guides were informative and entertaining. Nasrin, our Croatian tour manager, was friendly, helpful, handled any ‘hiccup’, and became a friend to us all. We consider this trip one of our best!

All was very nice and most likely due to our tour manager who did a fantastic job !

EVERYTHING WAS ABOVE EXPECTATIONS

Lots of info and beautiful country and very friendly people.

It would have been 5 if we didn’t have all the messy drama about the mix up with the rooms on the ship

Other than a room assignment disaster on the first day on boat, the tour was excellent.

The SanSpirito was great, had plenty of room to unpack and lots of deck space.

I have been on many cruises and this, by far, was the worst. In the room the air conditioning was poor, the TV was intermittent as was the wifi. When we arrived, they couldn't find a key to the room. Then they couldn't find the key to the safe. Information provided by Collette was misleading, at best

Croatia was great and our tour guide made everything so special

It was a wonderful experience and the Crew on the ship was exceptional. From the Chef's cuisine to the Crew members who were so accommodating to all our needs, it made the trip memorable. Our tour manager was a doll and so informative and helpful with all our special requests and needs.

The tour was wonderful but you get us there sucked

Extremely expensive and the tour are very bad

The tour was marketed as a first class tour- The land accommodations were good , the boat was less than deluxe and a deal for Collette, It was nothing fancy like other boats and the food was average at best. Needed more coffee machines and there was no expresso machine. It was unexpected that no bottled water was provided for land tours (had to pay for water bottles) and you had to pay for non-alcoholic drinks (soft drinks) as well as alcoholic drinks. No hosted gatherings with pu pus and drinks. Could have provided Wine bottles on meal tables etc. Far from first class. The crew of the ship was most polite. No accommodations were made for rain like it or lump it, we would have brought rain slickers that were packed away in the bus if knew, however the bus could have driven the first rain tour with the guide. The bus rides were longer than expected and not set forth in the information. For me, setting out the anticipated time of each bus ride would have been invaluable as to my decision to take your tour. The length of each bus ride has been set forth on other tours I have taken. The best thing about the bus rides was the chosen bus driver who was excellent, and the rides were quite safe. I suggest that the earphones be used on the bus which would have lessened needing to listen to questions and answers which I did not need to hear which droned on for a lengthy period of time (it was obvious that others felt that way too). While we had weather issues which interfered with our itinerary., this is to be expected. Collette added a trip to Bosnia which I did not choose to go on and add the several hours plus of a bus ride for a meal, two customs stops and return was not satisfactory for me. So the only option was just to stay back and a wasted day (we made the most of it, but not because of Collette). No optional tour guide for the town was provide etc. Collette approved and set up the Bosnia trip and they could have also considered those of us that stayed behind. We were not picked up as contracted for upon arrival and the first evening informational meeting was cancelled and that should have been our warning to just travel on our own. Then we were told we had to be on the bus the next morning at 8:30 am or we would be left, which was not correct. To say the least this was not a fun trip, the itinerary had the potential to be a lasting memory. I have travelled a lot and would be happy to share with you my lasting memories from fantastic trips. The trip was not worth the money we paid or the value of the time we spent. I feel that Collette misrepresented the trip and that Collette owes us a full refund for the trip that I expect immediately.

because it was EXCELLENT!!!!

This was a very relaxing vacation, due to the staff of the ship and our guide, Stefan, who made sure everyone was well taken care of.
