First time with Tauck

Have traveled a good bit independently with friends through Europe. First time solo so chose a small group. Any other solos on April 17 tour? Looking forward to this new phase of travel !

  • You will love traveling with Tauck and after your first tour, you will probably wonder why you waited so long. And, in my opinion, the small group land tours offer a much more intimate and immersive experience. Have a wonderful trip and please consider writing a review of your experiences afterwards. Although I saw very little of it (I was there independently after a business trip), Croatia is beautiful. Enjoy!

  • You would probably enjoy a Tauck River Cruise. Unfortunately, so are a lot of other folk. They are very popular. I have been on four and a fifth this Oct. We will do again.

  • Adriatic Treasures is a wonderful tour. (Tied for #2 on my list of 15 Tauck tours.). I, too, was a solo on that tour. I really enjoyed seeing the different areas of the Balkans that have such different feels, and fell in love with Slovenia. You'll love this trip!

  • MCD thanks for the feedback! What was your favorite? I’m planning to take a tour in 2025. I’ve taken one tour in my life. It was a river cruise with Viking. It was very disappointing. The Director was not there for us. Talked a lot about being under corporate pressure and not proactive. We had a lot of unhappy customers.
    I have heard nothing but positive things about Tauck.

  • My favorite was Grand Australia and New Zealand, that I supplemented by adding 3 days in Tasmania at the beginning and 2 days in Auckland at the end. I didn't spend the days in Auckland. I did one day trip to the Bay of Islands and one to Rotorua. Tied for #2 is Israel and Jordan.

  • Tauck is simply the best. Once you try Tauck - you are hooked !!! We did Adriatic Treasures last year. Exceeded our expectations. Very beautiful. Worth it to go in a day early a visit Dubrovnik walled city very near hotel. Singles never left out. Jordan & Egypt another amazing trip through history ( late November ideal ). Switzerland superb. Tanzania & Zanzibar for adventure ( September is good ). We head to Antartica next January. Check out my posted photos in Croatia forum from 2022. Best of luck.

  • I am going in a day early. Did you feel that Dubrovnik was a safe place to wander around alone? I’m also staying over a day at the end to explore Venice.
    I really appreciate all the positive feedback 😊

  • Yes, Dubrovnik was a safe place to wander around alone. I walked the walls of the Old City. When I went (2021) I had to use Croatian kunas (no credit card) to buy my ticket. They're on the euro now.

  • Doratexplorer - The following picture is reason enough to take the sky ride to the top of the hill in Dubrovnik and enjoy a treat.

    Dortexplorer, you will love Dubrovnik. There is a really cool beach bar built into the cliffs in the city wall. It is called Buza Bar and should not be missed Zivjeli!

  • Croatia is generally super safe; I'm an independent female traveler and felt safe. But you do have to use common sense.

  • Dortexplorer - Dubrovnik is safe, Old Town is very close to the hotel, I walked there many times during my stay, there are wonderful little museums there. You can purchase the ticket to walk the Walls on line (which is what I did) and go at your leisure though I recommend early morning.
