Group Size
Unlike most guided European tours, Nat Hab trips shun big buses and crowded, touristy locations. By deliberately keeping our group size very small, we ensure access to the most intimate nature encounters and authentic cultural experiences. And if there are more than six travelers on a departure, we travel with two Expedition Leaders, for the utmost in flexibility, personalized service and superlative interpretation.
Take this trip on a private basis, traveling exclusively with your immediate family, multi-generational family or group of friends.
Included
Accommodations, services of Nat Hab's professional Expedition Leader(s) and local guides, all meals from dinner on Day 1 through breakfast on final day, some gratuities, airport/train station transfers on Day 1 and final day, private boat tour to the island of Cres, all activities and entrance fees, all taxes, permits and service fees.
Not Included
Travel to and from the start and end point of your trip, alcoholic beverages, some gratuities, passport and visa fees (if any), optional activities, items of a personal nature (phone calls, laundry and internet, etc.), airline baggage fees, required medical evacuation insurance, optional travel protection insurance.
Important Information About This Trip
While our focus on this unique itinerary is extensively on nature, and we spend most of our time immersed in beautiful and wild landscapes from the Adriatic Sea to the Julian and Dinaric Alps, please be aware that this is not a wildlife-centric trip. While we might see a few animals here and there, and we do visit a special island reserve dedicated to the conservation of endangered griffon vultures, wildlife is not a prominent highlight. Be assured, however, that your experience will include magnificent natural places that conventional itineraries don't offer—our guests come home wowed by the diverse landscapes we encounter, and our connections with local people living on the land in rural areas.
Mandatory Insurance
Since the areas we travel to are remote and wild (that's why we go there!), we require that all guests have, at minimum, medical evacuation insurance for this program. This is for the safety of all guests. We require that your chosen independent insurance plan includes at least $250,000 in medical evacuation coverage.
To protect your investment and to provide peace of mind while you travel, we also strongly recommend purchasing comprehensive travel insurance. Plans may cover everything from medical treatment to trip cancellations and delays and lost luggage. Please contact our office if you would like more information about the medical evacuation and comprehensive travel insurance policies we offer by calling 800-543-8917.
Getting There & Getting Home
This trip begins in Zadar, Croatia, and ends in Ljubljana, Slovenia. You must arrive in Zadar by 2:30 pm on Day 1 in order to join a welcome presentation and walking tour of the city at 3:30 pm.
You may depart from Ljubljana at any time on the final day, though we recommend flights before 1 pm for the smoothest experience.
