The coast of Croatia is a must see! - First international solo trip and I’m so grateful that I booked this tour! Domagoj was an amazing guide! He is very friendly and informative. We visited the beautiful cities of Nin and Zadar. These two places were beautiful, definitely worth the trip. My favorite part of the day had to be the healing mud site! The coast of Croatia is quite beautiful and the tour is a must! Highly recommend booking with Domagoj

Beautiful touch of the croatian coast from Zagreb - Great tour with a possibility to visit a part of a wonderful croatian coast and beautiful towns like Nin & Zadar from Zagreb. Another interesting spot was a salt factory near Nin, which is a unique experience. The guide, Domagoj, was outstanding, flexible & very sympathetic, who made the tour unforgettable.
