Mixture of mainland, coastal, and island cycling with many hills and fabulous views of the Adriatic. A glimpse into Croatian culture and the wonderful people.

One of the best! Excellent rides, scenery and food, with strong cultural history
Michelle L., Oregon City, OR - May 2019

First I'd say 'Croatia is beautiful, and everyone should visit'. Then I'd tell them that each island was more beautiful than the last, and that the cycling was a ton of fun!

I was sorry it was over. The 3 guides were really fantastic. The Adriatic Sea is spectacular. The little towns were picturesque. The old towns of Split and Dubrovnik were special. Too many tourists, however, in Dubrovnik.
Michael D., Boulder, CO - May 2018

One of our favorite tours ever! Beautiful scenery, interesting culture, good food and wine. Loved the culture of coffee, gelato, wine, olive oil, fresh seafood. Complex logistics including boat transfers were handled perfectly. Guides were outstanding and wonderful people as well. Fun compatible enthusiastic uncomplaining group of fellow bikers.

Amazing scenery, some challenging hill climbs but oh the ride down made it all worthwhile. This was my second EP trip and because of the great experiences I have had I am sure there will be more.
Thank you.

Lyndon J., Trafalgar, Australia

This was a wonderful tour. The scenery, cycling route and equipment were first class but the tour leaders were outstanding. They provided so much cultural knowledge, took care of all our needs and were a ton of fun.
Beverley T., Vancouver, BC - September 2017
-
The tour involves a lot of climbing, but rewards those climbs with incredible views of the Adriatic and coastal towns from the heights. The rides were short enough that we could explore many towns in the early afternoon after our cycling was completed.
Bill M., Woodland, CA - September 2017
-
Fun cycling through very scenic areas.
Rick W., Davis, CA - September 2017

Quaint towns and wonderful boutique hotels were great. Unforgettable blue water too. Guides were excellent. We had a great time on this trip and would recommend it to others. We are already planning to do the Camino next September.

Worth doing, a wonderful experience. We have been on several cycle tours with other companies and this company has been our best yet!

Great trip, and as always just a feeling of independent travel that the arrows always give us in the organized trip. Guides are all great as usual.Good food and some neat places to stay. Thanks.

How would you describe this tour to a friend?
A fantastic experience. Great cycling, fabulous tour leaders, so well organised, amazing cultural experiences, flexible assistance for all participants.

Each day I thought that, that day was my favorite, until the next day. There wasn''t a day that I didn''t say, "wow" at some point. The last small ferry was super relaxing. I was very happy with everything we did. For the first time, we traveled with friends. My biggest fear was overselling ExPlus to them, and they''d be disappointed. By the end of the trip, our friends kept saying, we understand, love the arrows, can''t sing the praises of ExPlus enough.
Susan A., Colorado Springs, CO

It was a great experience to visit the old cities and get a taste of the culture and way of life. I have been on several other tours including some with other companies, and these two leaders were among the very best. They made a good tour even better. ExperiencePlus! bills itself as having local character and they really do. No other bike touring company offers as much opportunity to blend in with the local people and culture. It adds so much to a memorable vacation.
Bill P., Meadville, PA

Very well planned journey, carefree cycling by the arrows, fabulous routes, great cultural experiences and best of all, the guides were fully engaged with us and we''re always there to lend a hand. They seemed to magically pop up during the touring. The tour is set up to give you the freedom to cycle confidently at your own pace with no worries.
David S., Voorhees, NJ

This trip was a very rich cultural and historical experience.
Silvija and Ante, were excellent at sharing the love and pride they feel for Croatia with us.
They did an excellent job of taking us to local family businesses, farm to table meals, family owned limestone artist workshop, family run ferries, all of these experiences gave me a real flavor of Croatia and the many generations of people living there. Plus an added bonus of daily swimming in the Adriatic!

When my friends asked "what was the highlight of the tour" I answered FIVE STARS in all categories!

What was your favorite experience on this trip?
It is very hard to single out one in particular, but I enjoyed the different cycling options -- on two occasions, I opted for longer rides than the rest of the team and in each case was rewarded with special experiences.

Absolutely wonderful!There were tours of the palace in Split, the fort in Hvar and the winery in Bol; ferry rides and boat rides; walks on the Ston wall; alleys in old towns to explore; interesting local meals (frogs!) ... it turned out to be a wonderful cultural experience.

John H., Colorado Springs, CO

[What was your favorite experience on this trip?]
The amazing views during and after those climbs! It's just stunning. And also the Croatian people that I met. Croatia is an amazing place. I thought from travel books and pictures I had a very good idea of what to expect. Much better than I even thought. More Americans should visit - best seen on a bike trip with ExperiencePlus!

Riding on the island of Korcula beautiful mountain views and following the seaside, then a wonderful "local cuisine" dinner together organized by our leaders. We experienced local cuisine, local traditions and even observed a class for stone masons. We had a wonderful and memorable trip!
Kathy E., Clarksburg, ON, Canada

This was a wonderful tour with beautiful routes, interesting meals in out of the way locations, great guides (and I do love having local guides). I also loved cycling on 3 of the coastal islands.

Arlie and Diane N., Bellingham, WA

The thing I love most about ExperiencePlus! is that we are taken care of just enough to leave a little adventure to the trip. I love the focus of really trying to show the culture and people of a country in addition to wonderful riding. I think you do this by providing local guides, typical local meals and opportunities to interact with the locals (the hat trade) and to learn about the country more in depth by providing tours of olive oil factories, stone cutting school, and meals at places like the agriturismo place. You've given me many wonderful memories.
Betsy I., Boulder, CO

I especially liked the way you mark the road and the trip notes for each day were excellent. The scenery was so spectacular, the dinners, wine-tasting...
It was a great trip in every way!!
Willa H., Seattle, WA

I had so many favorite experiences, I really liked our private tour of Diocletian's Palace in Split with Ivana, who was terrific. I liked the experience of the ferries and seeing the various ports and nautical activity. It's such a beautiful country and experiencing it by bike was a treat. This was a wonderful tour and I absolutely loved it.
