“From an initial enquiry Jack built a holiday schedule around the places (x3 in 7 days) that we wanted to visit in Croatia. Jack was extremely patient as we posed questions and explored various options. So well planned from the beginning using Jacks expertise, we actually stuck with the initial plan just having to make an informed decision on the three hotel options provided for each of our three destinations. The private transfers to and from the airport along with the boat transfers between the island and mainland ran very smoothly. I would highly recommend Balkan Escape - flexible, friendly, knowledgeable, thorough and patient. Thank you.”

“Efficient and friendly service, and our holiday was good value for money. Balkan Escape’s specialist knowledge of Croatia and Montenegro made us feel confident that we had chosen the right travel company to book with. Everything went to plan, and I would not hesitate to recommend Balkan Escape to others”

“Balkan Escape did a fantastic job in organising our trip to Dubrovnik and Split. They were very responsive to changes we had to make and booked the flights, hotel in Dubrovnik and apartment within the walled place in Split as well as the transfer to and from the airport and ferry from Dubrovnik to Split. Everything worked like clockwork. A special thank you to Heather Pfeiffer, who came up with our itinerary and suggested the hotel and apartment. Because we had to delay our departure by 10 days, she quickly rearranged our itinerary. She also provided some very useful suggestion activity suggestions for the various places. I would no hesitation in using Balkan Escape again and would recommend them highly.”

“We were delighted with the service provided by Balkan Escape. We went on a 16 night holiday in Croatia, staying at five different locations. Balkan Escape listened to our thoughts on what we wanted to do, and booked the holiday that exactly matched our requirements. All bookings of flights, hotels, transfers and ferries worked out without a hitch. They also provided excellent advice on trips, use of taxis and other questions, all of which demonstrated a thorough understanding of the tourist market in Croatia. All in all, an excellent service that I will happily use again and will enthusiastivally recommend to anyone.”

“We had a great three centred holiday. Most impressed with the service provided to us particularly the hotel choices and locations. Couldn’t fault anything and would certainly use BE to book further holidays in the Croatia area. The company is well thought of by the contractors providing the service in Croatia.”

“Met all the requirements of our holiday, the hotel choices were perfect. Good flight times, and the transfers were all seamless. Great communication throughout. Have already recommended Balkan Escape to friends and family.”

Helpful Report

“The booking process was good - they were able to arrange a different flight from the usual schedule which made a big difference to us. Communication was good, although some emails went to spam so I didn’t always realise that - so always worth checking. All the hotels were nice and the transfers worked perfectly. We chose not to hire a car and use transfers instead so they took us all over the place. I know it’s unusual not to have a car at Plitvice Lakes but it was doable. The bus service spoken about in the official Plitvice Lakes websites does not support local services but we did use a taxi in one occasion. Our hotel was a little bit of a trek from the park in foot so if you decide to choose not to have a car request a hotel closer if possible. Overall we very much enjoyed the trip and valued the services and information provided by Balkan Escape. Thanks Jack for supporting us.”

“We have just arrived back from a 3-centre holiday in Croatia (Zadar, Split and Brac) organised by Balkan Escape. The service was excellent from beginning to end. Balkan Escape helped us choose the locations, organised all the accommodation and arranged the transfers. They really looked after us in all aspects of the holiday planning, even keeping us informed of last-minute changes in our flight timing and schedule. We had a fantastic time and really valued the local knowledge and experience provided by Balkan Escape. We would definitely use Balkan Escape again and would highly recommend the company to friends and family.”

“We recently had a trip to Croatia and we used Balkan service. They were very helpful arranging an itinerary suitable to our budget. The selection was excellent and gave us a couple of hotel choices for each destination. All the hotels were brilliant and location were within a very comfortable distance to centre. All transfers were puntual and very friendly. The service of Balkan was exceptional, the replied to my emails very promptly answering any questions or doubts that I had. I would definitely use them again and I encourage friends to use them. Laly Sanchez”

“Holiday needs were all met. Accommodation and transfers all good and went smoothly. The first hotel on Hvar was good but there were large groups of boorish male Brits in the pool swearing and being general drunken dickheads. Not your fault but hey ho. Service from Balkan Escape was excellent. Yes we would use you o book again.”

“Wow, what an amazing holiday we had in a beautiful Country. I would like to thank the team at Balkan Escapes for putting the package together for us. We stayed in Split, Hvar and Korcula. The holiday certainly lived up to our expectations. All the hotels suited our requirements and we loved all three places for different reasons. Thanks to Balkan Escapes the transfers all ran smoothly, with very detailed easy to follow instructions. I will certainly be recommending Balkan Escapes to friends and family.”

Balkan Escape did a great job in helping us create our holiday and booking the flights/hotels/transfers. The choice of hotels on offer were excellent and Balkan Escape provide the flexibility to create you dream holiday.

“From fully understanding our requirements, translating those into a great itinerary including travel, hotel options and suggested activities at each destination resulted in a great two week holiday in Croatia. I would not hesitate to recommend Balkan Escapes for their knowledge of the region, translating our wish list into a memorable holiday and a smooth process from initial enquiry to the completion of the holiday.”
