Croatia

A gem of pristine coastlines and medieval heritage

Croatia Dubronvik Beach

CROATIA. An Island Hoppin’ Heaven!

Bok! This dreamy destination has it all: enchanting beach coves, mouth-watering cuisine, and fascinating heritage.The shimmering Adriatic Sea embraces Croatia's charming islands and sun-kissed towns. It's a perfect place to enjoy the ocean without the crowds. But if you venture inland, you'll discover stunning landscapes, rugged peaks and rolling hills in northern Croatia. You can shuck oysters and taste wine at our favourite island spots, wandering between the red-roofed Hvar and the sunny Korčula. And if you're a Game of Thrones fan, you can join a custom tour with an expert guide through Dubrovnik, following the mighty footsteps of the Lannisters.

Flight time.

It takes around 24 hours to fly from Auckland to Croatia, including a stopover. Despite the long flight, Croatia’s stunning coastlines and rich history make it a must-visit destination.

Calendar Icon

Best time to go.

The best time to visit Croatia is from May to September, especially if you’re interested in the coastal regions. The summer months are perfect for enjoying the Adriatic Sea and exploring the islands.

Watch Icon

Time difference.

Croatia is 10 hours behind New Zealand, so you’ll need to adjust to a significant time difference.

What truly sets me apart is that I believe in creating travel experiences as unique as you are. I take the time to understand your preferences, your dreams, and even those little quirks that make your ideal trip special. 

It’s not just about booking flights and hotels; it’s finding that hidden gem of a restaurant in Barcelona or securing the best view of the Pyramids in Egypt, I’m committed to delivering experiences that go beyond the ordinary. 

I also pride myself on being incredibly accessible and responsive. If a last-minute change or unexpected challenge arises, I’m just a phone call or message away, ready to jump in and ensure everything goes smoothly. 

My goal is to make every moment of your trip memorable, stress-free, and tailored just for you.

Having been in the travel industry for 14 years, it's safe to say travel is my biggest passion. I love turning up somewhere not knowing what to expect and being delighted by both the differences in culture, cuisine and customs. Part way through my career I took a year off and spent this travelling extensively through central America, Asia and Europe. I'm now fortunate enough to be able to pass on the knowledge I've gained over the years and work with my clients to bring their travel dreams to fruition.
