My guide (Nike) set up a group chat for ease of communication which was a great idea for the group and showed care for customers. She was very approachable and full of knowledge about Croatia and especially the nationals Holliday to commemorate the war and attack on Croatia in the 1990’s. Overall a great tour , highly recommend of your in Croatia!”

Blue cave was amazing, we had to wait a bit in queue before switching to a smaller boat. Best seats are in the front in my opinion. Some comments said the ride vlwas bumpy but it was completely manageable for us, maybe the waters were calmer on our day.”
