Dear Wanda,
We had such a wonderful trip. Just finally getting back on US time here. Loved what you planned for us, and despite a rainy boat ride, it was amazing. Even the boat in the rain was great.
Can you please give a tip to Iva? It was nice to have her contact us there!
I still talk about our trip to Croatia, and loved the places where you sent us. I just told a friend that if they go, they have to use you as the Croatia Travel Specialist. I believe it made all the difference for our trip.
Thank you again.

Hi Wanda,
It was wonderful to finally catch with you after my return from our Vacation via our telephone conversation this afternoon. As I shared with you, the experience we had on our Croatian vacation was outstanding. Everything worked very smoothly. The drivers and guides were all prompt, easy to find and very professional. The hotel arrangements were the best as were all our side trips to the vineyards, wineries, restaurants, villages and churches.
As for our meeting with our distant relatives, I would describe the experience as very emotional and surreal. We were able to visit the birthplace of my wife’s grandfather, the church where he was baptized and the local cemetery. Finally, spending a Saturday afternoon on the “family” farm and having lunch with our distant relatives was an experience of a lifetime.
Please pass on our regards to Iva Raucher, our Croatian concierge, for the outstanding job she did in connecting us with our family.
Thank you again for arranging a wonderful trip.

Hello Wanda. Just wanted to say that the trip was awesome. The drivers, tours guides, and everyone else involved were great. Our concierge, Iva, was wonderful. I’m so glad we were able to meet her in Rijeka. She was in constant contact with us before and during the trip making sure our needs were met. The best part of the trip, for me, was meeting with our relatives. I didn’t know what to expect and it turned out to be a very happy and emotional day for all of us. Thank you to you and tour staff for all that you did in locating these wonderful people for us. It truly was a trip of a lifetime for me. I would recommend your company to anyone planning a trip to Croatia. Should I go back, and I definitely want to, you will be the first one we contact!

Hi Wanda,
It was a wonderful experience, we over-stayed by a few days, but it was terrific. My comments are that although The Villa was fantastic, Montenegro, per your warning, is really not ready for tourism, one can skip it. We only went because we had a couple of extra days and could not change our flights once we realized we had booked beyond our interests and limited walking. The boats (both) were terrific, Korcula was wonderful, perfect for three nights, Tony was great (his is the only restaurant on the waterfront worth going to, the other one next door was extremely mediocre), the driving tour of the island and the driver’s recommended stop for lunch was fabulous (family farm, wonderful food), the local vineyard for Grrk was fun, the driver from Korcula to Dubrovnik was nice but he arrived with a car that had a non-working window and small size car for a long driver — later discovered he had much better cars in his ‘fleet’ and picked a bad one for us (he should be spoken to about that, Philip was annoyed). The Ston oysters was a flop, but really given all the great things we saw and experienced between Split, Korcula, Dubrovnik we have no complaints and have recommended to a good friend that she use you for her family’s trip and after the holidays she will be in touch. I did want to mention that The Villa Dubrovnik was a delight but, again, we were there too long! The Wall (guide Branca) was fantastic, she is the BEST guide possible. A delightful lady and so well informed. Dubrovnik is good for two nights, really awfully commercial, but the day tour by boat were terrific, one day of boats and one day in Dubrovnik and one day to linger would have been great.
HOWEVER, we had a WONDERFUL TRIP FROM SEPTEMBER 10 – 23, we loved it and YOU!!
Happy Holidays!
Warmest regards, Nancy (we are travelling again but we can speak in January!) ox
