Mountainous inland and Dalmatian playground in one, Croatia is as much the refreshing waters of the Adriatic coast as it is the karst formations of the Plitviče Lakes. Its towns are treasures: medieval Zagreb, UNESCO-listed Dubrovnik and seaside Split each exude their own romance, while Croatia’s incredible cuisine and wine rival Italy’s for the best in the world. Whether you sail its azure coast, trundle its length by train or hike the hills, Croatia will delight at every turn.
Frequently Asked Questions about our Croatia tours
Visa requirements may change, so for the most up to date information we recommend using our Entry Requirements tool. Alternatively, check the Croatian embassy website in your country of departure.
There aren’t any specific vaccine requirements needed for Croatia. However, as advice can often change, you can check out our Entry Requirements tool for the most up-to-date details on vaccination requirements.
Croatia experiences a variety of climates depending on the region. Summers (June to August) in the Mediterranean are hot and dry, with temperatures often soaring to around 30°C (86°F) — in inland areas, they’re about five degrees cooler, and even cooler in the mountains.
Winters (December to February) are mild and wet by the coast, with temperatures floating between 10 to 15°C (59°F). They can often get below freezing in the mountains, and snowfall is common. In inland areas, temperatures tend to remain in single figures.
The best time to visit Croatia largely depends on what you’re looking to do. For beach holidays, Summer (June to August) tends to be the best, whereas Spring (March to May) and Autumn (September to November) are the best time to come for sightseeing, hiking, and exploring historical sites as the crowds are fewer and the temperatures are pleasant.
Winter (December to February) is the quietest time of year to come, and some tourist attractions may be closed.
While conventions can vary from country to country, tipping is customary in Europe. A general rule is 10% of the bill for wait staff, and a smaller amount for other service providers.
Tipping is an expected, though not compulsory, component of your tour programme, and an expression of satisfaction with the people who have assisted you on your tour. There are several times during the trip where there is opportunity to tip the local guides. You may do this individually, or your CEO will offer to collect the money and tip as a group. Recommendations for tipping local guides would range from €3 to €5 per day, depending on the quality and length of the service. Ask your CEO for specific recommendations based on the circumstances and culture.
At the end of each trip, if you felt your G Adventures CEO did an outstanding job, tipping is expected and appreciated. The precise amount is a personal preference, however €30 to €40 per person, per week can be used as a guideline.
Internet access in Croatia is generally pretty good, and you can find Wi-Fi in public places like restaurants, hotels, hostels, libraries, parks, train stations and cafés. You should be aware that if you’re using data on your phone, you may be subject to roaming charges.
Yes, ATMs (locally known as ‘bankomats’) are widely available throughout Croatia. You’ll find them in cities, towns, and even smaller villages, and they are commonly located at banks, supermarkets, airports, train stations, and near grocery stores too. Please be aware that there may be withdrawal fees — check with your bank before you travel.
As currency exchange rates can fluctuate often we ask that you refer to the following website for daily exchange rates: www.xe.com.
Croatia is fairly LGBTQ+-friendly, and if you’re in towns and urban areas, you’re unlikely to run into any issues here. However, if you’re in more rural areas, opinions may be more conservative. Be discreet and you should be fine.
As part of their commitment, all CEOs receive LGBTQ+ inclusion training so every traveller feels respected and welcomed on all of our tours. We commit to making our tours a safe and inclusive place for people to express their authentic selves without judgement, free from any discriminatory language or harassment.
While travelling with G Adventures, all travellers must treat each other with dignity and respect to create an environment that is positive, safe, and where everyone feels welcome. You can find out more via our LGBTQ+ travel page.
In Croatia, the primary language spoken is Croatian, which is spoken by nearly 95% of the population. Other languages spoken here include Serbian, Hungarian, Slovak, Romanian and English.
Yes, you can drink tap water all over Croatia as a general rule. We recommend you bring a reusable water bottle for environmental reasons as there are numerous filling stations.
In general, yes, Croatia is a safe country in which to visit — in fact, it ranks as one of the safest countries in the world. That being said, petty crime like pickpocketing does still exist here — particularly in large cities — so it’s wise to be aware of your surroundings.
G Adventures takes all reasonable measures to ensure your safety and enjoyment while travelling with us. All of the included activities are properly vetted and regularly checked by us, and we take great care in choosing the right transportation, stays throughout your trip, and guides to lead your tour. However, there are always inherent risks when travelling — you can find out more via our travel safety page.
