Robbie and Bruno were amazing guides! Robbie organized the entire trip and he did a great job. We loved how Robbie personalized the entire tour. Two highlights of the trip were when Robbie organized a meal to eat the traditional dish peka at a Croatian couples home!! We had a wonderful meal and were able to see their gardens, how they made the food and wine. We also got an entire explanation of how the husband of the household is a marksman and saw his collections of stuffed animals. We also loved going into Dubrovnik via boat and being able to visit several small islands. Robbie was so easy to work with. He made the trip completely seamless. Robbie organized another tour guide, Bruno to work with us the first part of the trip. Bruno also was very good.

Ston

We loved the personal experience of this hotel! We ate at the owner's restaurant every night. Only one thing they could work on is that the towels need softening agents. Also would have liked a few more towels in the room.

Loved how Bruno our tour guide understood timing of when we should go into the park!! We avoided the crowds so it really felt like a personal experience.

Didn't love this park as much as the Plitvice Park. It was a bit more touristy.

Loved walking the walls on our own!! Wonderful way to really understand how local people live in Ston!! Robbie did a great job in touring us around and explaining the history of the area. Would have been nice to have more time to explore Split, but it is a more touristy area.
