“This was the fourth holiday we have booked through Balkan Escape and as always the service provided was first class. We actually booked this holiday in November 2019 and throughout the disruption caused by Covid, Jack kept us informed and enabled us to postpone our booking until this summer. All details of the holiday such as the transfers and bookings were very well organised. Communication is always excellent with Jack and it was comforting to know that we were even able to contact him and receive help and advice when we were in Croatia.”

“Our first trip as a family of four to Croatia and it was wonderful! We stayed at Split, then the island of Brac, then Dubrovnik - all expertly organised by Jack at Balkan Escape. Our teen kids - usually hardcore Greek-island-holiday fans - absolutely loved it (as did we), and Croatia exceeded our expectations. Jack seemed to know exactly what we were looking for, and gave us a holiday itinerary with lots of variety and useful suggestions - all for a very reasonable price.”

“Despite us booking our Croatia tour at short notice, Balkan Escape were able to offer a thorough and comprehensive package of flights, 3 quality locations, transfers & hotels at a reasonable price.”

Helpful Report

“I would thoroughly recommend Balkan Escapes. Jack was very helpful from his first suggested itinerary and incorporating the changes we requested. The hotels were all good. The transfers were on time and the ferry tickets all in order. Our only problem was delays on the flight leaving Gatwick but that was down to easyJet and the weather rather than Balkan Escapes. Croatia is a fantastic country to visit tans Balkan Escapes made it easy to tour around and see as much as we did”

“We were very impressed with the service from Balkan Escapes. Jack is superb in his organisational skills and every detail is covered. His itinerary and transfers between resorts were excellent. I would thoroughly recommend booking your holiday with Balkan Escapes.”

“Excellent, streamlined experience with high quality service.”

“Booking process efficient and the packaged itinerary and attached tickets / transfers worked well. Accomodation in Split (Amphora) was excellent and high spec. Valamar Lacroma, Dubrovnik was OK, not exceptional and shame we had no views for the bedroom. Aminess, Korcula was small but pleasant hotel and good for a few days trip. Suggested activities were generally useful as a guide to what was available. Thoroughly recommend multi island day trips from Split as a highlight. Uber in Split was cheap to the Old Town though the bus to Old Town Dubrovnik was long and congested given the hotel location 2.5 miles from town centre. Overall enjoyed the 10 day trip and would consider future trips. When giving a budget for the trip as we did, it isn’t immediately clear what you would be getting for your money. Ie our £1500 x 4 budget for 10 days was what we chose but had I suggested £2500 x 4, would it have been substantially different? At the time of booking we were unaware. Maybe a options might have been helpful at the booking time”

“This was the first time we have booked with Balkan Tours. If possible in future I would always use them for all our holiday bookings. Our advisor Jack Fleming was outstanding. We originally booked in 2020 for my 50th birthday holiday in 2021 but due to Covid restrictions we were unable to travel. At all times Jack kept us informed of changes and country restrictions in Croatia. His service is second to none. We had not traveled to Croatia before and his knowledge and advise for the 10 nights multi centre stay we booked was exceptional. The hotels in Dubrovnik (Hotel More) and Korcula (Hotel Liburna) were just perfect the only change we would have made was the hotel Marvie in Split, it was just a super Hotel but needed a taxi ride into town rather than being able to walk in and out as we would prefer. This is purely personal preference on our part. The local knowledge and advice we received from Jack helped our holiday become a wonderful trip and we would highly recommend Jack and Balkan Tours for your holiday tour operator. Thank you for organising the best holiday for us all.”

“Our third holiday in Croatia organised by Jack. Really professional service, great advice & we’ve been really happy with hotel suggestions & itineraries. Highly recommended.”

“Jack was fantastic at sorting out our forever changing itinerary and nothing was too much trouble”

“This is our third holiday with Balkan Escape and I cannot recommend them enough. Clear, timely communication and attention to detail. Our holiday surpassed our expectations and met our needs, for our two active boys. I don’t like busy or touristy places and budget has to be carefully managed. Jack at Balkan Escape listens carefully and tailors the most amazing trip. We absolutely love the Balkans, picture postcard scenery. We would not book a holiday with anyone else.”

“This is the 4th time we have used Balkan Escape and this has been the best yet. We were undecided exactly where we wanted to go but definitely wanted to visit Croatia and the Adriatic Coast. We have Jack our specific needs which were vast given we were going to be going with 2 children and also my Wife’s parents also (a lot of people to please) he recommended Amarin Family Hotel in Rovinj after much discussions and back and forth we put our full trust in his recommendations. He certainly delivered and more the place was amazing, everything from transfers, flights and hotels were smooth and pain free and kept us in contact throughout. Thank you so much from one very happy family. Rest assured our next holiday will be once again returning to the excellent team at Balkan Escape !”

“From the outset the team at Balkan Escapes understood our requirements and tailor made a holiday experience which was perfect for our family. Everything from the booking process through to the travel and transfers and hire car booking ran smoothly. This allowed us to just relax and focus on enjoying the experience of seeing Slovenia and Croatia knowing that everything had been taken care of. Thank you to the team and I would firstly recommend visiting Slovenia and a Croatia and I would highly recommend using the team at Balkan Escapes to facilitate that.”

“I can't rate Balkan Escape and Jack enough! From start to finish, our holiday was perfect. The booking process was easy, hassle free, Jack was so efficient with getting back to us with any quotes or answers to questions we had. The holiday itself was such high quality and perfectly organised...not to mention the unbelievably beautiful destinations. I would highly recommend anyone to use Balkan Escape for their holidays. You'll be guaranteed to be in good hands. Thank you Jack!”

“Cannot say enough good things about Balkan Escapes. They organised a fantastic holiday in Croatia. The itinerary met all our needs and was great value for money. And the icing on the cake was when Jack rebooked our cancelled flight home whilst we were on the beach without us even realising. First class service.”
