Efficient Way to see Croatia
We did a bike and cruise tour last summer that turned out to be a great way to see a lot of different parts of Croatia. There are several tour companies providing this service (we used Pedal and Sea Adventures) where you join a small group of cyclists (our group was about 40 people) on a moderately sized boat (each group or individual gets a berth with private bathroom/shower) and cruise to several different Dalmatian islands (Hvar, Korkula, Vis, Brac, etc.) as well as several major port cities like Split, Dubrovnik, Trogir and bicycle either the cities, in the country, across islands, etc. Our tour had e-bikes which I highly recommend since there are some very steep grades and it gives you a great chance to relax on the scenery instead of your pedaling. Meals are included (not the greatest; we'd often skip the onboard meal and go have dinner in town for instance), the boats/rooms are very comfortable, and everyone was very friendly. Above all else, the biking tour guides would take us to special places for swimming, dinner, etc. and shared a lot about the history of the area. I wouldn't recommend it all the time, but if you want to quickly see the better spots of Croatia, learn the history, and not really stress about it, consider a bike and curise tour in the area.
