I am happy to say we had a very enjoyable holiday which was greatly appreciated by our Group. Very many thanks to yourself, Louise, Damian and all the team at Tailored Travel for your help and assistance which ensured such a successful trip.

I would like to express our appreciation of the excellent holiday to Croatia and the Istrian Riviera. We were delighted with the hotel. As it had been recently renovated, the accommodation was of a very high standard. The location was superb, with many bedrooms overlooking the harbour. We were able to step out of the hotel on to the harbour, and the old town was on the doorstep. We all felt the programme was well planned. We had an excellent guide in Ratko, who was friendly knowledgeable and helpful. All in all it was an excellent holiday.
