The tour was very well organized and covered lots of diverse sites. I enjoyed the parks and natural wonders as much, or more, than the cities. Local guides were excellent-a couple better than others-but very informative. Hotels and food were outstanding. Bus driver was superb and fellow travelers a delight to get to know.

My best friend and I absolutely loved this trip. We had no expectations of what this part of the world would be like and were delightfully surprised. This was our second Smartours excursion but certainly not our last, an excellent blend of cultural, natural, and urban elements - incredible beauty, great food, and good company. The hotels were nice, even the government-owned facility in Plitvice Lakes. Our tour guide, Roc, our driver Dijo, the tours, including the optional ones (we took them all), and most of the local guides were quite good, especially with the "whispers" we used, but Dubrovnik was very crowded, even at the beginning of the season. The airlines and connections were better than in India and Nepal. And the price was definitely right! April 13-26,2016

What an amazing tour...we couldn't have asked for more. The history was so facinating, the scenery so breathtakingly beautiful. Our tour guide was fabulous and so knowledgeable...thanks Valentina. We would take another tour anytime. If you haven't toured Croatia...go for it you will nto be disappointed.

Our Trip was Amazing and perfect. We learned so much and seen the most beautiful sights. The food was great. Especially the Pizza's. We couldn't have asked for a more knowledgeable Tour Guide, Valentina was amazing. It was hard to go back home. We will def book our next tour with Smartours

Fantastic tour with extremely knowledgeable trip leader. I suggest making the Montenegro tour optional and making the Istrian Peninsula trip option a part of the standard tour.

An excellent itinerary and tour. The ideal blend of interesting history, architecture and beautiful scenery. Our tour director, Rok, was outstanding. He was very helpful, well organized and enjoyed sharing his vast knowledge of these countries. The optional tours were a great value and very worthwhile, significantly enhancing the experience. I highly recommend this trip.

We just returned from the Jewels of the Adriatic tour and it was wonderful. This area of the world is very special, historic and so beautiful. The amazing, wonderful, brilliant Rok Kunaver, tour director, was so able to teach us about the history of this places, give us incredible information and share great stories of growing up in the neighborhood. There were a couple of difficult situations which he handled with such great ease and confidence. The hotels were lovely. The air travel, though long on the way home, went smoothly with no disruption and no problems with connections-and we had 4! The food was great and Rok's recommendations for restaurants were top notch and really gave us a sense of the food culture of the area. The optional tours were really well planned and gave you a much more indepth perspective of the country. We felt they were quite a value as well. We had an amazing driver, Tiho, with a very high end and comfortable coach. We really like this tour. It was our first time with SmarTours but we will definitely travel with you again.
