🛫 FLIGHT INFORMATION

This trip requires a multi-city flight, not a roundtrip ticket.

Arrival Airport: Split Airport (SPU)

Departure Airport: Dubrovnik Airport (DBV)

Trip Dates: August 29 to September 4, 2027

Please arrive in Split before 2 PM local time on August 29. You will depart from Dubrovnik on September 4.

Heads up for U.S. travelers: there are no direct flights from the U.S. to Split, and the trip over usually takes a full day with layovers and the time change. That means you will most likely need to depart the U.S. on August 28, the day before, in order to land in Split on time on August 29. Please keep this in mind when booking so you do not accidentally arrive a day late. Book early to save on flight costs and lock in better options.

Is This Trip Right for You?

Not every trip is for everybody, and that is completely okay. This Croatia experience is all about adventure, culture, community, and going with the flow. It is not a "sit by the resort pool all day" kind of trip, and knowing that upfront makes all the difference.

✅ This trip IS for you if:

You are open-minded, fun, and down for an adventure

You enjoy walking, exploring, and trying local foods

You are excited to meet new people and embrace different personalities

You love boat days, beaches, and a good balance of culture and turn up

You understand that European standards can be different from the U.S., and you are perfectly good with that

❌ This trip is NOT for you if:

You carry first-world expectations everywhere you go

You get annoyed easily, complain a lot, or struggle to go with the flow

You dislike walking, stairs, or uneven cobblestone streets, because there will be plenty of them

You need everything to be hyper-luxury or catered to very specific preferences

You are not open to trying Croatian cuisine or stepping outside your comfort zone

Come with an open mind and good energy and you are going to have the time of your life. And if this is not your vibe, no worries at all, this one just might not be the trip for you.

✈️ PRIOR TO YOUR DEPARTURE

Check your passport: It must be valid for at least 6 months after the trip ends, so valid through at least April 2028.

Visa requirements: U.S. passport holders do not need a visa to enter Croatia. Non-U.S. passport holders, please check your visa requirements and apply in advance if needed.

Vaccinations: Make sure you are up to date on your routine vaccines. No vaccines are required to enter Croatia, but you may consider Hepatitis A or Typhoid if your doctor recommends it.

Notify your bank: Let your bank and credit card companies know you are traveling to Croatia so your transactions do not get blocked.

Sign up for alerts: U.S. citizens can enroll in the STEP program (Smart Traveler Enrollment Program) for embassy safety alerts and support.

🏨 GENERAL INFO

Accommodations are double occupancy with 2 beds, unless you selected a private room. If you do not have a roommate, one will be assigned to you.

This is a group experience. All tours and meals listed in the itinerary are done together. If you choose to opt out of any activities or group dinners, you will be responsible for your own transportation and expenses.

A WhatsApp group will be created before departure for coordination, reminders, and updates throughout the trip.

🍽️ FOOD & DRINKS

We will enjoy a variety of Croatian and Mediterranean cuisine, think fresh seafood, risottos, grilled meats, pastas, and local wines. Breakfast is included daily, along with select group dinners. Alcoholic drinks are not included unless stated otherwise. Vegetarian options are widely available. Any meals outside the group itinerary are at your own expense and your freedom to explore.

🧍🏽‍♀️ PHYSICAL ACTIVITY WARNING

This trip involves a moderate level of physical activity, including walking tours, stairs, cobblestone streets, and boarding boats. If you have mobility issues, joint pain, or are not comfortable walking for extended periods or on uneven surfaces, this may not be the best fit. Comfortable walking shoes are highly recommended.

💶 MONEY / CURRENCY

Croatia uses the Euro (€) as its official currency. Credit and debit cards are widely accepted, but it is smart to carry some Euros in cash for tipping, taxis, and small vendors. You can exchange USD or withdraw local currency at ATMs in Split or Dubrovnik.

Tipping: A 100 euro tip per person will be collected on Day 1 to cover gratuities for drivers, hotel staff, and guides.
