each individual who assisted us in our tour of Croatia was great...in Dubrovnik, we were assisted and guided by Ana, who showed us the old city from a local's perspective...our drivers, Josef, Ivo, Mario...all intelligent and helpful...Our boat captain Mario (Fish and Fun) showed us a great time and cooked for us on his boat. Our hiking guide ..not positive of the spelling of his name..Tivo...maybe?...just terrific...all the hotels that were booked for us were beautiful and suited our needs perfectly. At the Hotel Lero, we got a chance to hear some musicians playing who we got acquainted with...very memorable and enjoyable.
Hotel Reviews
Top notch
Beautiful..great location overlooking the water....
the only aspect that would make it tough on some travelers is that there are a few steps in and out to get to the hotel...otherwise, it was great...nothing bad to say. Great service.
architecturally fascinating....beautiful...very well run. front desk folks were delightful
Activity Reviews
Ana gave us the "insider's" tour....just spectacular.
Mario was fun, interesting, and a great cook....took us to some spots to swim, and to our pleasant surprise, had a grill off the back of the boat where he prepared a fresh fish lunch for us...
our guide was an energetic outdoorsman with boundless energy and terrific knowledge of the area and its history, plants, herbs, ..we met a woman who gave us information of the use of these herbs and plants in making of essential oils and natural remedies. The peka lunch was a real treat too.
Our driver Ivo was particularly interesting, incredibly educated and experienced and well traveled. He dropped us at the park, where we enjoyed a walk through the waterfalls and great views. He picked us up promptly and took us to a fabulous restaurant for lunch.
Our driver Mario was very professional and charming, giving lots of interesting comments during our drive . The winery was a real treat, where we tasted several varietals, olive oil and cheese. The owner had lots of valuable experience and knowledge, We brought some wine and olive oil back with us from there.
