Amazing amazing tour experience!!

Aug 2023

My husband and I did sail Croatia for a week of my birthday. Although I was hesitant about being a bit older for sail Croatia (33), and also being a married couple we didn't really know what to expect. We had the best time of our life with our group, Dom (our leader), and the Trutravels team! It was so well organised, it was a good mix of party and learning about the places and doing fun activities (e.g. White water rafting, bike riding, clubbing in a cave and a castle!) albiet there was definitely a lot more party vibes with our particular group. A good mix of ages (19-35) and from all backgrounds - UK, Australia, France, Germany, Canada, Scotland. Dom, our fearless leader, was absolutely incredible!! He was so quick with responses, always had an answer for any questions we had and was on the case when there was any issues that would arise. Two people had family emergencies during the week and he was quick to do whatever he could for both of them to help. It was obviously that he really cared about making the whole trip the best experience for all of us, whether that was having a chill night playing cards but also raging in the bar or clubs with the rest of us but also organising us all so we were safe and all having the best time! He also managed to give us enough free time between group activities to have breaks and gave us enough historical information to be informed about the amazing places we visited while also joining in on the activities with the rest of the group. He was sweet, funny, kind, caring, passionate, knowledgeable and we could not have asked for a better leader for our team! Love you Dom! The crew on board were also so helpful, smiling and happy to accommodate us (as they live full time on board, it must be hard to have a party every night in your home). They worked so hard when we were ringing that bell for rounds of shots every 2 minutes!! And we love them for it! The boat itself is intimate to say the least but it meant that we were all like family by the end. A few different areas to hang out in and separate to have your our space too. The bedrooms were a bit small (all single bunks) with not a lot of floor space but can store shoes and bags under the bed and small hanging space. Has a great aircon! The bathroom sink converts into a hand-held shower which has good hot water and pressure as long as not too many people using it at once. The only other comment is that the bar tab at the end has to be paid in full cash at the end of the last night and a few people got caught up with big bar tabs and limited cash withdrawals which we had been warned about so FYI to take out your cash in advance and keep on eye on your tab! All in all, an amazing week with an amazing crew an awesome team of people! Char Holliday - Aug 2023

Best Guide and wonderful place to meet new friends!

Jul 2023

My partner and I absolutely loved our Tru Travels trip in Croatia. We had a good time, our guide Keira was excellent! She was always really upbeat, energetic and organised. She provided everyone with a full itinerary of each day that morning, as well as suggestions on extra activities that will be offered, and what to bring/be prepared for. We loved that we were provided with extra opportunities for extra activities such as kayaking; SUP; bike riding; white water rafting etc. The boat they provided us was excellent with a great crew and wonderful facilities such as an air conditioner, bar access, 3-course lunch meal and breakfast. We really enjoyed our stay on the Tru Travels boat and loved being able to enjoy the sunshine and the water on swim stops throughout the trip. I would 100% book another tru travels tour. And would hope that I was lucky enough to get the most incredible guide ever, Keira! ☺️ Rebecca Smith - Jul 2023
