A Croatia vacation package from Fond Travels combines round-trip flights from the US on major airlines, hotels in Dubrovnik, Split and on the Dalmatian islands, ferry or catamaran tickets and private transfers between them, and optional guided tours of the old towns, national parks and coast in one itinerary. To book from anywhere in the United States, call +1 (323) 800 6001 at any hour and a real travel expert will plan the route with you and confirm every component under one reservation.

Croatia's coast runs the length of the Adriatic, so the question is not whether to island-hop but which islands, in what order, and how to link them with the fast summer catamarans. Our experts handle the timetables and the open-jaw flights so you simply arrive.

Why Croatia for your vacation

Croatia delivers walled medieval cities, crystal-clear water and more than a thousand islands along one of Europe's most beautiful coastlines. Dubrovnik's marble streets and city walls rise straight from the sea. Split is built inside and around a Roman emperor's palace. Hvar, Brac, Korcula and Vis offer lavender-scented hills, pebble beaches and harbor-front dining. Inland, the turquoise lakes and waterfalls of Plitvice and Krka are unforgettable, and Istria in the north adds truffles, hilltop villages and a Venetian flavor. English is widely spoken, and the country joined the euro and the Schengen Area in 2023, which makes travel simpler than ever.

What's included in a Croatia package

  • Round-trip flights on major airlines from your nearest US gateway to Dubrovnik, Split or Zagreb, typically with one European connection, and open-jaw routings so you fly into one city and home from another.
  • Hotels and resorts from old-town boutiques to beachfront properties, at well-known resort brands and independent hotels, with breakfast included at most.
  • Ferry and catamaran tickets between the mainland and islands, plus private transfers from airports and ports.
  • Optional add-ons such as a Dubrovnik city walls walk, a Split and Diocletian's Palace tour, a Plitvice Lakes day trip, a Blue Cave and Hvar boat excursion, or a private sailing day.
  • Small-ship Adriatic cruise combinations with pre- and post-cruise hotel nights, and Montenegro or Slovenia extensions.

Every component is confirmed together so any change is coordinated. Call for current pricing on your dates.

Best time to visit Croatia

The Dalmatian coast has a Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and mild, wetter winters. Late May through June and September through early October are the ideal windows: the sea is warm, the days are long and sunny, ferries run frequently and the old towns are lively without the peak crush. July and August are the hottest and busiest months, when Dubrovnik's walls and Hvar's harbor are packed and cruise-ship crowds arrive midday. April, May and October are excellent for Plitvice, Krka and city touring, with waterfalls at full flow in spring. From November to March many island hotels and catamaran routes pause, so winter visits work best for Zagreb, Split and Dubrovnik at their quietest.

Where to stay: areas and resort styles

In Dubrovnik, the Old Town puts you inside the walls, while Ploce just east has cliffside hotels with Old Town views and Lapad and Babin Kuk offer beach resorts a short bus ride away. In Split, the Old Town and Riva promenade are atmospheric, Bacvice and Žnjan have beach hotels, and Trogir nearby is a UNESCO island town. On Hvar, Hvar Town buzzes with nightlife and Stari Grad is calmer. Brac's Bol sits beside the famous Zlatni Rat beach, and Korcula's walled town is a quieter Dubrovnik in miniature. Istria's Rovinj and Porec offer pastel harbors and family resorts, and Zagreb's Upper Town is the capital's historic heart. Styles range from stone villas and adults-only boutiques to all-inclusive beach resorts and yacht charters.

Things to do in Croatia

  • Walk the complete circuit of Dubrovnik's city walls at opening time and ride the cable car up Mount Srd for sunset.
  • Explore Diocletian's Palace in Split and climb the cathedral bell tower.
  • Take a speedboat to the Blue Cave on Biševo and swim in Vis's Stiniva cove.
  • Hike the boardwalks of Plitvice Lakes National Park and swim below Krka's waterfalls where permitted.
  • Sail between Hvar, Brac and Korcula with a private skipper and lunch in a harbor konoba.
  • Tour Rovinj's old town and taste Istrian truffles and olive oil, or day-trip to Kotor in Montenegro.

Getting there from the US

There is limited seasonal nonstop service from New York to Dubrovnik in summer, but most US travelers connect once through a European hub, giving total journey times of roughly 11 to 14 hours from East Coast gateways and 15 to 18 hours from the West Coast. Dubrovnik, Split and Zagreb all have international airports, and open-jaw tickets avoid backtracking along the coast. Croatia joined the Schengen Area in 2023: US passport holders may stay up to 90 days in any 180-day period without a visa, with a passport valid at least three months beyond departure. ETIAS travel authorization is being introduced — verify current requirements before travel. Croatia adopted the euro in 2023, the language is Croatian with English widely spoken in tourism, and the country is on Central European Time, six hours ahead of US Eastern Time.

Who this package suits

Couples and honeymooners love Dubrovnik cliffside suites, Hvar sunsets and private sailing days; many add a lie-flat seat through our business class or first class reservation service. Families enjoy Istria's shallow beaches, Split's pebble coves and Plitvice's boardwalks. Seniors appreciate small-ship cruises and guided touring with private transfers that avoid the old towns' steps — see our senior travel reservations. Groups chartering yachts or celebrating milestones can keep everyone on one schedule with our group travel flights service. Solo travelers find Croatia safe, social and easy to explore by ferry.

Croatia Vacation Packages: frequently asked questions

June and September are ideal, with warm seas, sunny days, frequent ferries and lighter crowds than July and August. May and early October are lovely for city touring and the national parks, while many island hotels close from November to March.

Most itineraries connect once through a European hub, giving total journey times of roughly 11 to 14 hours from East Coast gateways and 15 to 18 hours from the West Coast. Limited seasonal nonstops operate from New York to Dubrovnik in summer.

No visa is required for tourist stays up to 90 days within any 180-day period, as Croatia joined the Schengen Area in 2023. Carry a passport valid at least three months beyond departure. ETIAS authorization is being introduced — verify current requirements before travel.

Breakfast-included hotels suit Dubrovnik, Split and the islands, where harbor-front konobas are part of the experience. All-inclusive resorts exist mainly in Istria and near Dubrovnik and work well for families. Small-ship cruises bundle meals and island stops.

Yes. Istria's shallow beaches, Split's pebble coves, boat trips, Plitvice's boardwalks and Dubrovnik's cable car keep children engaged. Water shoes help on pebble beaches, and we keep ferry connections short so travel days stay easy.

Croatia works well for seniors with careful planning. Old towns have steps and polished stone, so we choose hotels with elevators and easy access, arrange private transfers, and suggest small-ship cruises or guided tours that minimize walking.

Croatia is very safe with low crime. Use everyday care with valuables in crowded old towns and on ferries, watch for sea urchins on rocky shores, respect strong summer sun, and drive carefully on winding coastal roads.

Croatia has used the euro since 2023. Cards are widely accepted, though small konobas and island shops may prefer cash. Tipping is appreciated but modest: round up taxi fares and leave around 10 percent at restaurants for good service.

Book five to eight months ahead for June through September, when Dubrovnik and Hvar hotels and open-jaw flights fill early. Shoulder-season trips can often be arranged two to three months out, and our experts help with shorter notice.

Call +1 (323) 800 6001 at any time. Share your dates, departure city and the islands you want to see, and a travel expert will check availability, propose an itinerary and confirm flights, hotels, ferries, transfers and tours under one reservation.
