We just got back from our honeymoon and had such an incredible time! They arranged a sailboat for us, gave us advice on where to stay and how to organise activities, and when we arrived on the boat there was a bottle of champagne! Could not have asked for more!

Sarah and her team will make you feel like you are travelling to Croatia with a lifelong friend. It was the best, most personal trip we have taken, and we have been to 67 countries across 5 continents.

Royal Croatian Tours organised a 7 day sailing tour for my group of friends on the Adriatic. We loved every second of the trip. The captain Vinko was absolutely brilliant.

Sarah and Ivan limo-ed me to Plitvice National Park, with a picnic hamper of gourmet sandwiches and chocolate crescents. Ivan even packed an extra pair of sneakers for me. They think of everything!

The hotels were perfect and you really made our trip special with the welcome pack, the little treats along the way, and the surprise at the top of the mountain in Paklenica. Everything was so well planned.
