Croatia
Experience Croatia in a dynamic 5-day journey, blending exhilarating adventures with enriching cultural encounters.
You will be picked up from Split, Croatia at the central meeting point. We then take a short, drive (30 mins) to our accommodation in Omiš. After you have settled in, you’ll gather for dinner and information about the week ahead.
*Arrivals before 6 pm are recommended, but arrivals after 6 pm may be subject to a surcharge depending on your accommodation.
Right after breakfast, we head out for an exhilarating rafting trip on the Cetina River. This 10 km (3 hr) journey is segmented into three distinct parts. Your guide will tell you about the river's rich ecosystem and brief you on any potential challenges ahead.
A short break allows for a refreshing swim and rest under the trees. The adventure escalates in the second section with invigorating rapids. Here, at the 'Tisne Stine' area, thrill-seekers can plunge from the cliffs into the deep waters. The final segment presents gentler rapids, guiding you towards the idyllic setting of Radman’s Mills, where your rafting experience concludes.
After returning from the river, you'll have time to unwind, explore the town of Omiš or enjoy a nice afternoon at the beach.
Start your day with a nice cup of coffee over breakfast. Today promises an exhilarating and unique canyoning adventure. The ancient river has sculpted a breathtaking landscape of waterfalls, lakes, subterranean tunnels, sheer cliffs, and the awe-inspiring 50-meter Gubavica waterfall.
Under the guidance of our expert team, you'll be outfitted with top-notch gear and briefed on safety protocols. Swim in pristine natural pools, navigate through mysterious underground passages, and explore the mesmerizing waterfalls and rapids.
We set off in our kayaks right after breakfast. We will be paddling from Radmanove Mlinice, steering westward to where the Cetina River kisses the Adriatic Sea. As the journey unfolds, you'll glide into the historic city of Omiš.
Yet, the adventure doesn’t stop there! Discover a sunken ship resting in merely 3 meters of water – an ideal spot for exploration.
The day culminates at a mile-long sandy beach, a splendid backdrop for a variety of beach activities, or simply unwinding with a cocktail or two at the nearest beach bars.
The tour ends at Omiš main beach, where you can have free time to enjoy the beach and maybe a cocktail or two from the nearby beach bars.
Relax and enjoy a delightful breakfast on your final morning. You may decide to board a flight home, carrying with you a trove of unforgettable memories.

This trip is suitable for a wide range of experience levels. Some general fitness is needed for these multi-hour activities. Don't worry, you will be able to return to your accommodation to rest afterwards! For the canyoning: Average activity time lasts anywhere from 2 to 4 hours per day. Prior experience in canyoning is not necessary. It's helpful to have good general fitness, flexibility, and upper body strength. For the rafting: Rafting trips on the Cetina River usually last around 3 to 4 hours per day, depending on the selected route. Rafting is accessible to most fitness levels. For the kayaking: Average activity time can range from 2 to 3 hours per day, with options for both calm water and more adventurous white-water kayaking.

In Omis, Croatia, during the summer, you can expect warm and sunny weather with pleasant temperatures. Here's a general overview of the summer weather in Omis: The summer months, from June to August, are the warmest. Daytime temperatures typically range from 25°C to 35°C (77°F to 95°F), with occasional peaks in July and August reaching even higher. Nighttime temperatures are milder, ranging from 18°C to 24°C (64°F to 75°F). Rainfall and humidity: Summers in Omis are relatively dry, with minimal rainfall. Occasional brief showers or thunderstorms may occur, but they are infrequent and typically do not disrupt travel plans. Humidity levels are generally moderate, especially along the coast. Coastal areas like Omis benefit from sea breezes, which help keep the air comfortable even during the warmest days.

Sea temperatures in the summer typically range from 22°C to 26°C (72°F to 79°F).

Currency and payment methods: The official currency of Croatia is Euros (EUR). Credit and debit cards (Visa, MasterCard, and Maestro) are widely accepted in hotels, restaurants, shops, and larger cities like Split and Dubrovnik. However, it's a good idea to carry some cash for small purchases and in more remote areas. Notify your bank about your travel plans to ensure that your debit/credit card works smoothly abroad, and enquire about any associated fees. ATMs are readily available in cities and tourist destinations, making it convenient to withdraw cash in Euros. Be aware of potential foreign transaction fees imposed by your bank when using ATMs abroad. Be sure to budget for extra meals, drinks and taxi/ bus fares. You'll also want to buy some souvenirs and go shopping for local products, such as Croatian wine, olive oil, and handicrafts. Tipping Policy: Tipping in Croatia is appreciated but not obligatory. It's a common practice to leave a tip for good service. In restaurants, it's customary to round up the bill or leave a tip of 10% to 15% of the total amount if service is not included in the bill. Check the bill to see if a service charge has already been added. For other services, such as guided tours or transportation, tipping is also appreciated but not mandatory. You can round up or leave a small tip as a gesture of gratitude. Currency Exchange: It's advisable to exchange some currency before your trip or upon arrival at the airport or a local bank for convenience. Exchange rates may vary, so compare rates at different exchange offices to get the best deal.
Greetings: When meeting someone for the first time or entering a shop or restaurant, it's customary to offer a polite greeting, such as "Dobar dan" (Good day) or "Bok" (Hi). A handshake is a common form of greeting for both men and women in Croatia. Dress Code: Dalmatia, like much of Croatia, has a relaxed dress code, especially in coastal areas. Casual attire is generally acceptable for most occasions, including sightseeing and dining at casual restaurants. However, dress modestly when visiting churches or religious sites. Language: While many people in tourist areas speak English and other languages, learning a few basic Croatian phrases can go a long way in showing respect for the local culture. Respect for traditions and customs: Be mindful of local customs, especially in smaller communities. Respect religious traditions, and ask for permission before taking photographs in churches or at local events. If you are invited into someone's home, it's customary to bring a small gift, such as flowers or a bottle of wine, as a token of appreciation. Beach etiquette: Follow the local beach rules, which may include designated swimming areas and respecting quiet hours. Nudity on public beaches is generally not acceptable. Noise levels: Keep noise levels down, especially during the afternoon siesta hours when many businesses may close for a short break.
