Great experience
I thoroughly enjoyed this trip. Scenery was amazing, a good group of folks, and great support!
A fantastic week!
This trip delivers everything it says it will. You come back feeling fitter as well as having had a fabulous time!
Most Inspirational Moment
The Island of Korcula is truly beautiful.
Thoughts on Group Leader
The group leader took great care of us. He clearly loved his country and his job and was very happy to share his knowledge with us.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Some of the hills are perhaps a little more challenging than you might expect! The accommodation can be basic and the coffee isn't the best!
Amazing holiday - poor pre-joining support
The actual holiday was amazing, but the prep support was poor.
Most Inspirational Moment
Great cycling routes & amazing scenery.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Alan Skulic was a brilliant guide - calm, supportive & always ready with a smile to lighten the moment. He was very kind & helpful to me, as the slowest member of the group, & he made the experience a pleasure rather than a competition. The driver was also excellent & very organised.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Bring your own saddle!
Best holiday ever.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Very helpful and patient.
Advice for Potential Travellers
DEFINITELY Bring insect repellent.
Stunning scenery!
A wonderful week exploring some of Croatia’s islands by bike, starting from Split to Dubrovnik! Well organised with good support throughout. As this was my first cycling holiday I appreciated knowing the support vehicle is there, just in case!
Most Inspirational Moment
The beautiful scenery on the island of Mljet! Our guide Mario took us up to a viewpoint during an optional hike and the view was absolutely stunning!
Thoughts on Group Leader
Mario was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable in the area and the intriguing history of Croatia.
Advice for Potential Travellers
I highly recommend the optional trip to Mljet!
Fabulous
What a great way to explore the south of Croatia. Starting at Split and then island hopping to Hvar, Korcular and Mljet and ending up in Dubrovnik. Stunning scenery, good food and a great group to share the trip with.
Most Inspirational Moment
Having not visited Croatia before I didn’t realise that there were so many islands and the ones we visited were beautiful. The coastal rides were fabulous and dramatic especially on the last day riding through vineyards, olive oil groves and quiet villages. The small historic settlement of Ston was very interesting short stop on the way to Dubrovnik. For me Dubrovnik was an incredible place, Hotel a short bus ride into the city but if you wanted to sit by the beach and relax the hotel was only a few hundred metres from the sea.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Mate was a super guy. Very efficient, observant, organised, nothing too much trouble and made the trip a relaxed one. Pacing was good and you could go ahead if the roads allow. Each day was well organised especially when we had ferries to catch, water and snacks provided on some days, when and where to break and meet up with Tommy the driver of the bus and trailer. Mate very knowledgeable of his country and a great ambassador for Exodus and Croatia.
Advice for Potential Travellers
There are undulations along the route but the ups give great downs!! But Tommy with the bus was always there if you need him. The optional trip to Mljet is worth it.

Great first intro to Exodus bike tour
Fabulous first Exodus holiday, cycling from Split to Dubrovnik, island hoping in Croatia
Most Inspirational Moment
Downhill coastal sections in glorious sun. Fun evening meals out with group
Thoughts on Group Leader
Really excellent. Indefatigable, fun, knowledgeable, confident leader and problem solver.
Advice for Potential Travellers
We had unseasonably wet weather at the start, so change of clothes/footwear & lightweight cycling rain cape useful. Even so, packing light helps.
An excellent week in Dalmatia
An excellent island hopping tour of Hvar and Korcula with stunning scenery and good food with a great bunch of fellow travellers
Most Inspirational Moment
The view of Korcula town on the coast with the sea and mountains behind was a great picture I will remember, even better than the view of Dubrovnik from the fortress
Thoughts on Group Leader
Mario knew lots of informaton and shared this to give us background details of the areas we were cycling and travelling through
Advice for Potential Travellers
The mountain bikes with half suspension seemed heavy and more than required... until we hit the gravel tracks on Hvar and through the vineyards when they were definitely needed. The pace suited everyone.
excellent trip
This was a fabulous trip. The rides were challenging with hills but absolutely beautiful coastal views, quaint villages, and beautiful hillsides covered in grapes vines, olive trees and lavender. Dinners were very good, especially the farm to table one. Time spent in Dubrovnik was a great way to end the trip. 2 of the 3 hotels were good, one could be better. The guide Mario was excellent and made the trip that much better!!
Most Inspirational Moment
It was all inspirational, from the beautiful scenery to the challenging bike rides.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Mario was fantastic!! He was a natural; friendly, encouraging, helpful and flexible. Mario was easy going and didn't let things bother him. Even when we missed a ferry one day, he was on it immediately finding alternative plans. When the ferry to mjlet was cancelled due to winds, he quickly found an alternative ride for us to do. He seemed to truly enjoy hanging out with the group and it is always great to be able to hear stories from a local who can share what it is like to grow up and live in another part of the world.
Advice for Potential Travellers
I would get an e-bike if I did this again just to have a little assist on the hills. They were doable but it was a challenge since I had not been riding a lot this summer.
