We are experienced travelers who have been on several small ship cruises. Our Croatia cruise through Always Croatia was at the top of our list. All the accommodations were exceptional. Christy was fantastic to work with. She expanded our stay and ensured all of our activities were memorable. Everyone on the team was exceptionally friendly, accommodating, and helpful.

Judy and I have traveled extensively around the world, but had never been to Croatia. When planning our June 2023 trip to the area, she found Always Croatia and Christy Kranjec. Christy was a huge help in organizing our trip which began with a splendid cruise on the MV Premier, which took us from Dubrovnik to Split along the magnificent Croatian coast with stops each night in local ports. The ship accommodations were excellent. The staff was friendly and skillful in managing our experience. Our breakfast and lunch every day was varied and tasty. After the seven-day cruise, Christy had arranged an additional seven days for us and another couple. There were day trips to Mostar, Pula, and Slovenia as our journey took us from Split to Opitija to Zagreb. Christy arranged for our stay in classic downtown hotels with easy access to the surrounding shops and sights. Our drivers were on time, professional, and a great source of local information and color. On the major stops, we had local tour guides who were informative and engaging. Our entire trip was well-planned and executed. Judy and I thoroughly enjoyed our first travel experience in Croatia, and thank Christy and all the folks at Always Croatia for a memorable experience.

Our experience from start to finish was amazing! What an incredible way to see the coast of Croatia. We loved all of the stops and the excursions that were included made the experience even that much more incredible. We loved the Oyster farm, wow! The Krka falls and dinner at the Proscuitto Makers house was an evening we will always remember. The staff, Andre and Jana and the whole crew, were so warm and lovely. Our guide, Sinisa, was a wealth of knowledge and a very enjoyable individual. Christy worked with me to get our group all set up. The boat was beautiful! The cabins were spacious for a cruise, and the common spaces were abundant, comfortable, and beautiful. The food was also very good, we ate too much, but it was very good! All in all this was an incredible experience. Our group ranged from 21-55 and there was something for everyone!

Always Croatia is the best way to travel! Excellent tour leaders and local guides; excellent ship and perfect crew; delicious food! Lovely destinations; all travel arrangements were well-coordinated. Hassle-free and perfectly safe at all times!

We dealt with the owner Christy who's from the country. We wanted to combine the Croatian yacht cruise with a land-based itinerary on both cruise ends. That's where Always Croatia came through. Anyone could book the cruise, but Christy suggested we start in Montenegro and wind up in Zagreb. She handled everything from private cars to top-notch local guides. In Montenegro, for example, we got a private tour of the King's Palace, while tour groups watched in envy. Driving from Montenegro to Dubrovnik, she arranged a private wine tasting at a local winery. She also made dining suggestions at every stop -- including while on the cruise. If you want an authentic Croatian experience, work with a local.

We went on this trip with our entire extended family. The service was amazing. The folks at Alway Croatia were very thorough and easy to work with. I highly recommend them. Our trip was AMAZING!

Great experience. The Premier yacht was luxurious from the cabin to the main level dining room, the outdoor lounges and, my favorite, the Top sun deck with a whirlpool, sauna and more than ample seating. We swam in the beautiful, calm Adriatic every day. The crew was so professional and their service Impeccable. The food was So good. Touring such amazing, historical, picturesque cities was key to our experience and education about this part of the world. Excursions to Krka National Park, an Oyster farm and a family prosciutto producer (Pig roast) were just more Incredible highlights of the trip. You gotta do it!!

Our trip to Croatia can be summed up by one word, FANTASTIC!! In large part this was due to the assistance, advice and hard work of Christy at Always Croatia. After discussing our interests, she planned ten days in Split, Hvar, Korcula, and Dubrovnik. The recommended hotels were first class. Christy selected delightful guides, very knowledgeable, fun to be with, and helped us get a real feel for the wonderful Croatian people themselves. Her recommendations to go on guided trips to Krka National Park, the Hvar Island Tour, and the Korcula Off Road Buggy Experience were "five star.". We also had Private walking tours of Split, Korcula, and Dubrovnik which all get "A"s. These happened as a result of Christy and her experience. I would sum up our trip by saying "It couldn't have been better. Thank you Always Croatia.
