Irena and the whole crew here are amazing. Words can not express how helpful they have been for us. Going above and beyond. Guiding helping with documents and travel. We live about an hour and a half away, but drive all the way down here because we know we're gonna get 100% attention with our service and everything always comes out smoothly. We did a lot of phone emailing and then come down in person when we have to for translations, notary and travel. Highly recommend this fabulous crew for all your needs. read more

We used Peter to book our trip to Croatia. We were celebrating our son's graduation from college. Croatia was beautiful ! Wonderful vacation for us. We flew Lufthansa Airlines. They were not so wonderful. This airline is horrible! Going to Croatia and coming home our flights were screwed up. We got stuck flying to different cities both ways and had to stay the night in a hotel . They would not comp us a room. Missed the first day of vacation in Croatia. On the way home our flights were screwed up again, missed our flight in Frankfurt, Germany. We had to stay an extra night on the East coast due to Lufthansa Airline incompetence . We live in California , had to fly to Boston and stay the night. They would not comp us a room. In the morning we flew to Denver and back to California. Peter was great . My suggestion would be NOT to use Lufthansa Airlines when booking your trip . read more

Peter & the good folks at Adriatic Travel are awesome. If you're thinking of a trip to Croatia, these are the experts. They provide 1st class service & can help you plan the dream trip of a lifetime. They planned mine, from Dubrovnik to Split, & it was so much more affordable than I imagined. I highly recommend them. read more

I have worked with Adriatic Travel for over 20 years on various events - from purchasing flights for my family to boating excursions, and it has been a pleasure. They have always been extremely professional, responsible, and reliable - always paying attention to the little details that are so crucial to having unforgettable journey. With their experience, organizational skills, resourcefulness, as well as their tremendous passion for what they do, Adriatic Travel comes highly recommended. Bianca Childs read more

We were referred to Peter at Adriatic Travel for a trip to the Balkans. We had our airline reservations already completed but wanted assistance with accommodations, rental car, tours, recommendations for restaurants, things to see and places to go in our limited time frame. We had a rough itinerary planned and Peter said we could complete that in our allotted time but it may be a bit much. He suggested a revised plan and it worked out perfectly. We already had our accommodations in Dubrovnik, but I wish we would have used his suggestion for our accommodations there. The hotel he booked in Split was amazing. The tour guides we had on 3 separate occasions were not only knowledgeable but very friendly and fun. His suggestions for restaurants and must sees were spot on and he really did make the trip extra special. We were able to travel to Dubrovnik, Krka, Split, Hvar & Brac in Croatia, Montenegro, and Bosnia & Herzegovina and never felt rushed. It was an amazing holiday, largely due to Peter's patience and expertise in helping us set it up. I would highly recommend him if you are thinking of traveling there. As Anthony Bourdain said, "Croatia is the next great thing. If you haven't been there, you are an idiot." Thankfully, I am no longer an idiot. read more

Meri Svircic is an amazing travel agent who I have had the great pleasure of working with for decades. Because of her, my travel to and from my native Croatia has been problem-and-stress-free. She is a genius when it comes to finding me the most convenient flights and connections for the best prices. No matter where I want to lay over or for how long, she promptly conjures up the best connections, saving me time and money. I would never think of using anyone else, and live in terror that she might retire. Please give her a raise and ensure she stays on for years to come! read more

We have been thinking of going to Croatia for many years and once we talked to Peter and the team at Adriatic Travel, they walked us through the planning and we made it a reality in August 2019. It was the best travel decision we have ever made for our family. It was a trip of a lifetime and something my family will always cherish. Thank you Peter and everyone at Adriatic Travel for making us feel like family and providing all the best information once we were in Croatia to make memories that will last forever. read more

Pilgrimage to the Holy Land, Feb 20 to March 8th. Five stars to our tour guide Foteh Mickel. He was like a walking encyclopedia of historical facts and passages from the Bible, (Old and New Testament). He was energetic, and resourceful. The Church of the Holy Sepulchre had been closed due to secular issues and it looked like we may have to skip this part of our tour. At the last minute, thanks to Mickel's efforts, our group was able to visit the site , attend mass , save time and avoid the crowds. From the getgo, he made it clear to the group that this was a pilgrimage,first and foremost. In the end, we got to visit all the sites listed on the itinerary, and also had enough time for personal sightseeing, and shopping. read more

I recently got back from a 9-day pilgrimage (plus 2 travel days) to Italy, and feel very blessed by the experience. It was a custom tour designed by a group leader from nearby St. Felicitas Parish and promoted to my parish of Our Lady of Good Counsel in San Leandro, CA. Adriatic Tours of San Pedro, CA, and its Italian partner, Cedar Travel, made the travel and lodging arrangements; tickets for various museums and tips were inclusive. We had a solemn Mass daily celebrated by our spiritual director - in beautiful churches, or side chapels of the basilicas we visited. The itinerary included the Vatican Museum, Sistine Chapel, Basilica of the Holy Cross, Papal audience in St. Peter's Square, Coloseum, catacombs, Genazzano, Pompeii, San Giovanni Rotondo, Assisi, Florence, Pisa, Padua and Venice. Our final city was Turin, where we were privileged to view the Shroud of Turin on display to the public for a few weeks this year. The final shrine visited was Our Lady Help of Christians, mother house of the Salesians of Don Bosco. We had our final Mass there in an atmosphere of youthful joy. Throughout the whole trip we had an engaging and funny English-speaking Italian guide named Alessandro. He met us at our arrival airport in Rome and said goodbye to us at our departure airport in Milan. Among many tidbits of information, I gathered from him that Italians do not believe too much in air-conditioning, and consider it a sure cause of sickness. On May 24, Pentecost Sunday, we were blessed to listen to a homily on the virtues of a large family, and happy anecdotes of his family life. He had an encyclopedic knowledge of the history of whole length and width of Italy that we drove over, and the stamina to keep on talking forever. I believe him when he told us that at one time he talked all the way to France from Italy! As this was my 1st pilgrimage, I wonder if all guides are like him. Through a delicate balance of strict time management and sleep deprivation (joking), Alessandro was able to coax all of us 28 pilgrims to wake up, put our big luggage out the door, eat breakfast and get on the bus on time so we could make it to the next destination on schedule. Some wake-up times were adjusted when some pilgrims complained of extreme sleep deprivation, jet lag, fatigue, etc., and looked it. This pilgrimage was the most tiring thing I've ever done in my sheltered life! Another treat for me was that we had English-speaking guides in the Vatican, Pompeii, Assisi, Florence, Pisa, Venice and Turin. Each guide was an expert of their city or shrine or field of study. We stayed in 7 (4 or 3+ star) hotels in 9 days. Each one was near the shrine we were visiting. Buffet breakfasts and Italian dinners were included. Wines from the local area were served each dinner time. In Pompeii, Limoncello was served at dinner in addition to wines! Lunches were not included; enough time was given to eat lunch and roam around on our own. I have some minor peeves, such as a very late dinner at 10:00 PM at Sheraton Hotel-Padua! To be fair, I think our bus arrived late at this hotel. As a consolation, it seemed like we were provided unlimited wine and bottled water while waiting for our dinner. I also feel that we spent too much time in Pisa and Florence in non-religious environs when we could've spent more time in Assisi, and Genazzano (sanctuary of the miraculous fresco of Our Lady of Good Counsel, patroness of my parish). We didn't even have a chance to visit the church store in Assisi, and in Genazzano barely had time to pray in front of the miraculous fresco after the Mass when we had to go back to the bus. When we were not inspired to shop for gold and leather in Florence, nor appreciate hanging out an hour longer in Pisa, our guide was perceptive enough to notice that most of us seem happier visiting churches or praying or shopping for religious articles. In conclusion, I feel that Adriatic Tours delivered on the terms and conditions agreed upon when I signed up for the pilgrimage. I am grateful to have visited the Capital of my religion, and many places made holy by the lives of my favorite saints. I am happy to have traveled to Italy and back to SFO safely. I will not be able to join another pilgrimage soon (since our daughter will be starting college this fall) so I will just recommend Adriatic Tours to family and friends looking for a travel agency. Hopefully, one day, I could go on a Marian pilgrimage through Adriatic Tours. read more

40 years of EXCELLENT service and no one has written a review yet about Adriatic Travel...? I am very surprised that I am the first. It truly is my pleasure to do so. This place is a landmark in San Pedro!! My parents and all of my cousins (and every one that I know in San Pedro) have been getting all of our airline tickets (and hotels, cruises and tours) here since I was a child. They are absolutely the best. They specialize in travel to Croatia; however, they help with every and any other type of travel arrangement that you need to anywhere else in the world. I trust the whole staff completely to find the best prices WITH the best travel routes. They are so quick and friendly. And, they automatically find you the best price (without you even having to say that you want the absolute best price). A few times I checked with Expedia and Skyscanner to see if I could find better prices, but Adriatic Travel seems to be able to beat every price (I assume that they have different sources that we cannot see on the internet). Meri S. has been helping me for years. I love her. I do not even have to call in (which is so convenient when I am out of the country); instead, I just send an email that goes something like this: "Meri, I need a 4-star hotel and 1 round-trip ticket from LAX to London (near the center), for 2 weeks, leaving any time next weekend. Shortest travel time." Within minutes or hours, she emails me about 2 or 3 very good choices. I email her back with my selection, and a credit card number, and that's it. So simple. It's done. No expedia, no internet searches. Adriatic Travel knows quality and they already understand that we all want a great price. So, they always offer exactly what you want. A couple of times during the summer, I have sent an email to Meri for travel arrangements, not knowing that she is on vacation. Immediately, I get a response back from someone else stating that "Meri is on vacation, but here are the best selections for you". It is unbelievably great customer service. I bet that at another company, my email would just sit there until the person got back from vacation. Adriatic Travel does not miss a beat. The WHOLE STAFF, and owner Niko, are courteous and extremely efficient. They treat you like family. read more

Because of Peter and Adriatic Travel, our three weeks family vacation to Croatia, was amazing and beautiful. They helped us every step of the way, making each day a new and wonderful experience. We have traveled extensively, through Europe and Croatia has been on our list for years now......we are so happy to have been able to spent quality time there. It is, truly a beautiful country. A GIANT shout out to Peter and his crew, for setting up our dream vacation, we came home with wonderful memories. read more

I can't say enough good things about Adriatic Travel. I always used to book trips through online travel sites like Expedia... Not anymore. The first trip I booked with Adriatic was for 12 people to go Cabo San Lucas for a Bachelor party. Pete, my travel Agent, knocked this out of the park. I then booked a trip to Turks and Caicos. Again, a flawless job by Pete. My next trip is my honeymoon to Croatia and Greece. Pete already planned it and I know everything will be perfect. Pete has been able to match or beat anything I've found online. It's worth it to give Adriatic Travel a shot. read more

Peter organized a great trip to Croatia for family and friends. He took care of every detail and kept in touch the whole trip to make we were having a good time. His efforts were more than just a plane ticket and hotels; he arranged for a trip from Split to Dubrovnik with many islands in between, including dinners and tours. It was perfect and truly memorable. Thank you Adriatic Travel. read more

Peter planned out our Croatian trip including business class flight seats, Croatian island cruise, hotels and transfers. I've got to say it was the best trip our family has ever taken! He found great prices on airfare, new cruise ship and was available when COViD questions arose. I have to say, Ive always booked we trips on my own but Peter was phenomenal in taking care of all details. Would definitely recommend him and Adriatic travel and use them again!! read more

My husband and I planned on spending two weeks in Croatia and had already booked our flights. I reached out to Adriatic Travel and Peter for some help with planning our days in each town and island. He easily helped lay out our entire trip and how long we would need in each town / island. This had to be planned to correlate with the ferries at each port as we were going at the end of the season. We would have had a hard time without his expertise and assistance. He also arranged drivers for a few different trips and they definitely didn't disappoint. They were reasonably priced and each driver was knowledgeable, kind, and easy to get a hold of. Everything he advised on and planned was spot on. I would highly recommend using Adriatic Travel and Peter's expert and seasoned advice when planning any trip to Croatia. Thank you! read more

Adriatic Travel seamlessly planned and booked our recent trip to Croatia. The staff was friendly and very knowledgable. They covered all the details and had great connections in Croatia. They booked our flights, rides to and from the airport, rental cars, hotels, walking tours and a 7 day cruise. Their knowledge of where to stay and what to do while in Croatia was very helpful. We couldn't be happier and I would highly recommend Adriatic as a one-stop shop for travel to Croatia. read more

My family and I had very good experiences with Adriatic Travel agency over the years using their travel booking services. Their staff is very courteous and professional when dealing with clients. Our airline tickets were always booked as requested, and there were no issues with the travel itself. I would highly recommend their services for your travel needs. read more

We had a wonderful experience with Peter at Adriatic Travel. We went to Croatia for our honeymoon, and thankfully a friend introduced us to Peter shortly before. He made our airport transport, lodging, and tour accommodations. He was very helpful and easy to work with, despite our short notice. We had an issue with our flights (not his fault, but ours as we booked them without his assistance), and he was readily available to help us by phone and email. He had a great idea that solved our problem. Zoran, who provided hotel transport in Dubrovnik and a Montenegro tour, was lovely as well. He was very patient with all of our questions about Dubrovnik, Croatia, Montenegro, the Yugoslavian War, local food and culture! read more

Peter and Adriatic Travel were awesome! They took care of a group of 8 of us and they are top notch! Their family is from Croatia so they had great reccomendations for our Croatia trip and their professionalism and service were great. I reccomend Adriatic Travel to anyone, whether you're doing a whole encompassing trip and need a boat, hotels, restuarants etc, have a huge group or if you even if it's a few people who need a couple hotel rooms if you're backpacking around as they know the ins and outs of whole process and country! GREAT EXPERIENCE! read more

This agency was recommended to me by a nice Croatian family I met at Croatian consulate in LA. I checked out their website before contacting them and they have quite a few packages that you can book. However, I have 2 weeks to spend in Croatia and the packages they offer didn't fit, so I had to do a custom tour. Peter contacted me after I sent an email. Within a few days he sent me an email with a complete itinerary starting from Zagreb to Dubrovnik. He quoted me with competitive pricing and even though I didn't get a chance to book with his agency due to conflicting schedules, Peter went above and beyond for me in planning my trip. I highly recommend this agency when planning a trip to Croatia and other Eastern European countries. Thank you so much, Peter, I had the best time in your beautiful country! read more

I've known of Adriatic Travel for a while now and how great their service is when it comes to traveling, but had never used them before . I had never been to Mexico and was planning a trip this past October and i wanted to make sure I had the best time possible there, and I must say, I am so glad I went with these guys for my traveling experience . Peter is a very helpful and experienced guy and just made my life so much easier I must say . I didnt know what places to visit and what activities to do and Peter had recommendations for our group of what to do out there. Definitely recommend them for your future trips. read more

I have known the Hazdovac family for 15+ years and am very impressed with their professionalism, knowledge, and customer service. They have booked over 10 trips for me and each time I am equally impressed. I highly recommend Adriatic Travel to book ANY trip, but especially Croatia! read more
