How many people will be in my group?

Our Croatia tours usually have 15 to 25 people, mostly aged 18 to early 40s, from all over the world. If you're up for adventure and open to meeting people from different backgrounds, you’ll fit right in.

What level of fitness do I need?

You’ll need a basic level of fitness for included activities like kayaking, cycling, swimming, and walking around cities. To fully enjoy the trip, it’s highly recommended you can swim, as we spend a lot of time in the water.

Is there WiFi throughout the trip?

Most accommodations offer free WiFi. On the boat, connection may be limited, but you’ll still be able to check messages and do basic tasks.

How will I access money while I’m away?

We recommend using a Wise travel card. It works in most places and supports Apple Pay and Google Pay. ATMs are widely available, but some places may accept cash only, so it’s good to carry some local currency.

When is the best time to visit Croatia?

The best time to visit is from May to September, when the weather is warm and sunny. These months are ideal for sailing and exploring the coast.
