What's this trip about?

    This gentle multi-activity family holiday in Croatia gives a taste of the peaceful countryside as well as the ancient walled city of Dubrovnik and the warm crystal clear waters of the Dalmatian coast, which is a haven for water sports. During this Croatian family adventure holiday, we explore the sunshine region of the Adriatic through a variety of entertaining activities which can be enjoyed by all the family, starting with 2 nights in the pretty Konavle countryside south of Dubrovnik. We spend time on a farm, where the whole family can get involved picking fruit and vegetables or helping out in the garden and with our own fresh ingredients, we cook a traditional lunch with the farmer. We can sample the tasty cheeses made here and Mum and Dad can try their palette at wine tasting. We have a family cycle ride through quiet rural lanes and a walk along an old railway line walking through the tunnels. Every day we have some time at the beach to swim, relax, snorkel or play games and we end this lovely warm Mediterranean family holiday, exploring the Dalmatian coast by sea kayak and with a cable car ride for a fantastic view over and the incredible walled city of Dubrovnik.

Additional Information

Baggage Allowance

There is no weight restriction as such on this trip other than that imposed by your international carrier. However, travelling is always easier the lighter your luggage. On the day/night that you are walking to the mountain refuge there is no baggage transfer. Everyone will need to carry their overnight belongings including a sheet sleeping bag. We recommend that you keep your backpack as light as possible. Of course you may wish to carry some of the childrens belongings in your pack as well. We recognise that for some of our holidays and for some of our travellers, the KE Trek Bag (see below) may not provide the best solution when packing for your holiday. A bag with fitted wheels or a holdall with more than one compartment and more than one access zip can, in some circumstances, be more appropriate. We have no problem if you choose to use an alternative bag.

Group Size and Holiday Status

For each holiday there is a minimum number of participants required to enable it to go ahead. Once the minimum number is reached, the trip status will change from 'Available' to 'Guaranteed to run'. You can check the trip status for each departure in ‘Dates and Prices’ table. Other than in exceptional circumstances, we will not cancel a trip once it has achieved this guaranteed to run status and so you are free to proceed with your international flight booking and other travel arrangements.

Climate

Croatia has a varied climate, with continental climate conditions inland and Mediterranean influence on the Adriatic coast. In July - August, with temperatures can be in the high 20s or in the 30s in and you can expect plenty of sunshine from roughly May to October on the coast with slightly cooler temperatures.
