Itinerary
Day 1
WELCOME TO SPLIT!
We get things started in Croatia’s second largest city – Split. A buzzing, exuberant portal city perfectly set between dramatic coastal mountains and the turquoise waters of the Adriatic. Upon arrival, we’ll pick you up from the airport and take you back to our centrally located hotel. Ease your way in by wandering the marble streets of split Old Town (be sure to visit Diocletian’s Palace) and then meet the rest of your group at our welcome dinner where you’ll enjoy some delicious Dalmatian cuisine.
Day 2
KRKA NATIONAL PARK
Today we take a day trip to the majestical Krka National Park – a stunning stretch of nature filled with beautiful waterfalls, deep gorges, fast flowing rivers and 850 different plant species. We’ll take a private 1.5 hr bus ride to get there and then explore the huge park through a combination of boat ride and hiking some of its picturesque trails. The highlight will be arriving at the Skradinski Buk Falls, a breathtaking collection of 17 cascading waterfalls landing into emerald green waters full of tropical fish. This is a perfect day in nature!
Day 3
HVAR + WINE
We’re taking things up a notch as we leave Split and head to the lively island of Hvar (officially Croatia’s sunniest spot) where we’ll spend the next 2 days. We’ll arrive in the morning – via catamaran – and then you have some free time to yourself. You could chill by the hotel swimming pool, hit up one of the many beach bars, or go take in the views from the imposing Trdva Fortress. Late afternoon we’ll regroup and head to Hvar’s rustic interior to visit the family run Hora vineyard for a spot of wine tasting and some earthy Peka dinner.
Day 4
SAILING DAY
Today is an action packed day of sun, sea and good vibes as we cruise around on our private speedboat visiting some of Hvar’s neighbouring islands. We’ll go see the natural phenomena of the Blue Cave; stop off for lunch in the gorgeous Komozi Town on the breathtaking Vis Island; sail through the sun-drenched Pakleni Islands; and find some quiet swimming holes for a spot of snorkelling and relaxation along the way. This is exactly what summer in Croatia is all about!
Day 5
DUBROVNIK + CITY WALLS
It’s time to make our way to the final location of the trip – and we definitely saved the best for last – as today we travel to the stunning city of Dubrovnik. Affectionately known as the ‘pearl of the Adriatic’, it is a place steeped in history and beauty in equal measure. Filled with baroque style buildings & limestone streets, surrounded by shimmering sea and enclosed with massive stone city walls – it’s a delightful place to experience. We take a 4 hr catamaran trip to get to Dubrovnik and then spend the afternoon on a walking tour before catching sunset from the city walls.
Day 6
FREE DAY
A full day in Dubrovnik to follow your own personal interests. You could choose to simply chill by the hotel pool with its striking views over Lapad bay. Or why not head to one of the many nearby beaches for a dip in those gorgeous crystal clear waters (and watch the local cliff-jumpers in action)! For a completely different side of Dubrovnik you could also take the cable car up Srd mountain or you could even try your hand at Croatian cuisine with a local cooking class. Before the trip we’ll share with you all our favourite hang-outs.
Day 7
KAYAKING + DINNER
This morning we’re heading out on kayak and making our way to a small island called Lokrum, located about 600m from Dubrovnik. While there we’ll explore the pretty little island which boasts a Benedictine monastery, botanical gardens, a Napoleonic-era fort and is a sanctuary where peacocks and other wildlife roam free. It’s also a key location for Game of Thrones (if that’s your thing)! In the evening we’ve organised a special dinner back in Dubrovnik’s Old Town for one final meal together before we say our goodbyes.
Day 8
UNTIL NEXT TIME
Our Croatia trip has now come to an end and sadly it’s time to go. But what an absolute blast it’s been. We’ve hit the very best spots of the Dalmatian Coast and had a lot of fun along the way. You’ve visited lush national parks, island-hopped your way around the Adriatic, sailed on private speedboats, kayaked, snorkelled, visited centuries old cities, drank wine in rural vineyards and eaten the most delicious of Mediterranean food. All done with an awesome group of new friends you’ve created epic travel memories with. See you next time!

What Our Guests Say
“Head and Shoulders Above the Rest”
Having been on numerous group holidays with more than 5 different companies, my standards are high and I can honestly say that Other Way Round is head and shoulders above all of them.
“Not Mass Produced or Touristy”
What I loved about this trip was that it didn’t feel mass produced and touristy. There was a sense of originality to it and uniqueness about the trip and the itinerary.
“Completely Hassle Free”
I usually travel DIY, where I arrange and book everything myself, and it was such a welcome change to have all that time and stress of booking the different elements of the trip taken away from me.
“Trip of a Lifetime”
I will never forget this trip. Not only because of the country itself, but because of the experience that Other Way Round gave me and the other group members. It was a trip of a lifetime and you will be missing out if you don’t just book it!
