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!

Great vacation!! First cruise for me and my wife. Everything was well organized by Always Croatia and the crew. WE did the land and cruise trip starting in Dubrovnik. For the cruise, saw multiple beautiful islands. Some organized activities such as short tours on the island but also alot of free time for us to explore what we wanted. One organized item was the dinner at the prosciutto maker. What an amazing night!! The land portion of the tour (after the cruise) could be catered to your own desires. Always Croatia was great in helping us plan our days. WE chose two nights in Rovinj (what a beautiful little city) after spending a day/night at Plitvice Lakes (WOW!). Added in truffle hunting which included a fantastic truffle tasting experience.

Fantastic company! Would absolutely recommend Always Croatia to anyone going to visit the country. They put together an amazing cruise with great walking tours everywhere we docked. We also added our own e-biking trips and they arranged everything. Additionally we tacked on 3 extra days (2 in Dubrovnik and 1 in Split) and they chose great hotels for us and helped arrange reservations at some amazing restaurants. They truly listened to what we wanted and delivered an incredible experience! And the guides they provided us were fantastic! Cannot say enough good things about this company!!

Great communication with Always Croatia. They were quick to respond to and answer all my questions. Even late at night or the weekends. The ship was as lovely as they described. Our room was spacious. The crew on the boat were fantastic. And when the sea got a bit choppy, they immediately redirected our stops to make sure everyone on board was not bothered by sea sickness. Great job of setting up walking tours at every stop. Very friendly people all around.

We had an amazing trip from start to finish
Christy took care and customized our ground venture before boarding our yacht to cruise the islands and Adriatic around Croatia
Any questions and ideas was easily answered and arranged
Can’t wait for our next trip to Croatia

We told Always Croatia staff what we were interested in seeing, and they made it happen with fabulous hotels within an easy walk of Old Town areas. Loved the Krka Falls and Sibinek day tour with VJ. Loved Split (and Olga’s great food tour). Loved Dinko’s tour of the island of Hvar, especially Stari Grad and Konoba Zbondini restaurant. And who could not love Dubrovnik?
The guides were friendly and well informed, and all trip details were well taken care of by Always Croatia.

We had never heard of the Always Croatia tour company before taking a chance on their Croatia Land-Cruise package. We are so glad that we did as our experience was well beyond our expectations. Every aspect of our trip was superb - with first class accommodations and transportation throughout the vacation. Christy Kranjek, Senior Destination Specialist, even helped us find a reasonably priced flight from Boston to Croatia.

In addition to the Slovenia/Zagred and Montenegro trip extensions offered by them in their package, we asked them to arrange a post-post trip extension to Venice as well. Always Croatia insured that everything went smoothly every step of the way with pickup in the airports and escorts to insure we found our way to the pre-arranged transportation - even adjusting on-the-fly when we told them our connecting flight to Venice was delayed.

There were local guides in all the stops to help us see and understand the local culture and sights. Ivan, the Cruise Manager for the 7-night cruise was knowledgeable, approachable and helpful in all respects. The ship itself, the MV Premier, was indeed a premier experience - from the excellent meals to the daily swim stops with provided paddleboards and snorkel equipment. Something that we believe is unique to this "Always Croatia" because of their roots in Croatia was an evening spent with a local family who hosted all 37 participants to a rousing dinner with everything homemade - from the welcome brandy toast to the proscuitto, cheese, olives, plentiful wine and a roasted pig. The evening was complete with local muscicians who entertained us with accordian, guitar and song throrought the meal. It was a unique and memorable evening.

We are a retired couple in our 70s and have done a fair amount of travel with tour packages and on our own in the past few years. We were significantly impressed with Always Croatia and within 2 weeks of our return, we are ready to sign up for their newest cruise-tour for 2025: Cruising Greece's Aegean Treasures. This is a small buisiness that we expect is going to be growing exponentially based on the quality of the services they provide.

Everything about the MS Desire Croatian Island cruise was Amazing! Starting with the 38 passenger...specialized treatment ship! This is something one would not receive on a huge cruise ship. The cruise director,Darko,was very knowledgeable and funny as well...keeping us light but also informing us of all the history of Croatia..even choosing to teach us a little basic Croatian( language)...not sure anyone passed ..but it was cool! Every day he taught us something about the next island we were approaching...The staff of the chefs,Josef and Misha fed us every morning and afternoon...gourmet,by the way...and the Captain..Drago..found us a nice bay where the sailors would tie the ship up to rocks on the shoreline....and we could swim EVERY DAY ..in the Adriatic sea....!!!! Best vacation/cruise/staff. EVER!!! Thank you all!!!
