country estate
Thank you for a delightful and entertaining week in Croatia. Everything and more than expected! We travelled as two couples but enjoyed the small group environment. The walks were within our capabilities but we held our own with the food & wine! Loved the story of how the Zinfandel grape was proved to have originated from Croatia. We tried some lovely Croatian wines, my favourite was the Posip at Sikuli Winery & my husbands the Plavac Mali at Rizman. The final evening at the country estate vineyard was wonderful too. We could all feel the passion and warm hospitality. It was a great way to finish a thoroughly enjoyable week.

Great company
The Croatia Walk & Wine holiday was an exquisite week of fine food & wine and great company. The historical gems of Split, Ston & Sinj combined with the natural beauty of Pelejsac, Split, Imotski & Croatia’s hinterland made for a magical week. We discovered some wonderful wines, tried delicious authentic dishes and still had some time for personal explorations. Our driver and tour leaders were first class. It was a delightful week which I will whole heartedly recommend to friends and family.

Croatian wines
We have done numerous gastronomic holidays across Europe over the years and we can firmly rate our Croatia trip as one of our best. The accommodation surpassed our expectations and it was wonderful being in a central base for the 7 nights. Each day was different and we felt the itinerary was well considered. The fine dining experiences were outstanding. Favourite winery was the Rizman. Favourite day maybe the last, in the hinterland countryside. Discovering some exciting Croatian wines was also an enormous amount of fun.
Clive & Pam Tilsly (Durham)
Red & Blue Lakes
Croatia was spectacular. Each day was unique and inspiring. The Red & Blue Lakes were a wonder. The St Anthonys Canal Walk was a delight and Rizman winery location was astonishing. I would like to thank our tour leaders Marija & Barisa who offered the perfect blend of organisation, information 7 companionability.
Rosemary Rowe (Chester )
Unpacked once
We had a wonderful time. The weather was brilliant, so the walks were all pleasurable. Our favourite walking day, was over the Ston walls. We just loved the views, that we’re only bettered once at the winery. All the food and wine pairings were exceptional. The tasting sessions delivered by the family owners, gave so much depth to the events. Transportation was excellent, and the distances a lot shorter than expected, to cover so many areas. It was wonderful to be based at the Hotel Duce. Unpacked once and started to relax! If you’re looking for that balance of adventure and fun, and wishing to be in a social group, this wine and walking vacation is fabulous.
Alison Childs (Chicago)
Extraordinary experience!
Whether you are a wine lover or not, I can highly recommend you to explore Dalmatia with this agency. I have to say it was one of the best culture and active tours we have tried so far. Thorough planning, well laid out schedules. The tour leaders organization was brilliant, making you feel so relaxed. The wine also helps the relaxed feeling too. The size of our group was 16 people, so we actually got to know each other really well. Superb like minded folk, so very pleasant over food and drinks. The tour guide Maria is knowledgeable and passionate about wines and traveling in her home county of Split. Extraordinary experiences, await. From gourmet gala dinners to majestic waterfalls and rolling vineyards. As the wine makers said, it takes time to find the perfect blend, but this walking and wine holiday has found it!
Roger Stenson (Richmond)
Magical Experience
We wanted a one week getaway, that didn’t entail moving to multiple hotels, but wanted to see as much as possible. The tour was a small group of 14 people. Barisa our walk and wine tour guide was so informative and the vineyards we visited were absolutely incredible. The settings for the wine tastings and dinners were just stunning, each getting better as the week moved along. The walking is moderate, not for those seeking a purest walking or hiking trip. Highlights were visit Ston, the winery close to Split and the Krka National Park. We loved how accessible the region was, seeing so much and led with so much attention to detail. The itinerary is a splendid blend of culture, nature and fun. We all loved out time with you. Thank you!
Joanne Preston (Putney)
meal in the hills
The experience we had with Green World Holidays was spectacular. The other families were a real joy. The luxury integrated at the 4 star apartments was very welcome. Gala dinner food was delicious, especially enjoyed the last meal in the hills. Your guides were brilliant, as was the pre-trip support from the UK office. Friendly and warm. Everyone knew their jobs. Croatia, Rivers and canyons is a must experience.
Ali Horton (Shrewsbury)

Shoutout to your guides
Shoutout to your guides. The tours were super, but your guides made it that much more special. They are so professional, fun and informative. I just wish my husband had booked the 2 week adventure now. We were envious of the other families continuing with you to Brac island. For the first time my stroppy teenagers seemed happy and that makes it a ten ten experience. We are looking forward to seeing you again next year. Croatia is
Helen White (Brighton)

Great care of my kids
Dubrovnik was just phenomenal. We had one of the best times together, and you guys made it happen. The organisation was amazing and not even a second of our trip was wasted. You took a great care of my kids and gave me some free time to fully charge my batteries. Also Lopud island has the most beautiful beach. Our second week, you kindly tailor made. Brac island is an absolute treat. For parents reading this, my advice is to start with an enquiry. This company cares.
Karen Ellis (Norfolk)

Family misses you
Hello, I would like to take this chance to thank you one more time. The tailor made trip you guys created for us all was just incredible. Thank you for your kindness and everything you‘ve done for us during our journey. We definitely had a lot of fun. Our guides Luka and Sara were so attentive. We will plan the next trip with you very soon. My family misses you already. Love the Mackie family x
Jon Mackie (Rye)

bluest of blue coastline
I really cannot find any words to describe how amazing this was. Your family run organisation is just so special. Your guides were just fantastic. Activities were so much fun. A big thank you for everything you did for us, especially for taking a good care of the youngest members in our family! We will never forget link hand in hand, flowing down the water rapids. Splashing down the water rapids and exploring the bluest of blue coastline. Croatia is undeniably beautiful.
Kat Beach (Reading)

good to cross reference
Our week with you was excellent. Your guides Mario and Daniel are true legends. We loved all activities. Although I have to say that cycling day was the highlight. I never expected to enjoy it as much as I did. It really worked for me. Our three teenagers enjoyed the pool party afterwards. Great organisation, excellent attention to detail from start to finish! I think Brac island is perfect for family activity holidays. Don’t hesitate to join onto this trip. Do check out their instagram page, where other parents say the same. Always good to cross reference. Lots of tips, advice and obviously pictures.
Debbie Nailor (Glasgow)

Very impressed with
We are very impressed with our family adventure week in Croatia. It all went great. The tour leaders were superb and they made sure that we are all happy. Activities were well organised and not too extreme, as I originally feared. As a single mum of 2 teenagers, I need to say that it was amazing to see the kids hang out with other teens without their mobile phones. At first I wanted to book your Croatia, Rivers and Canyons week. But so happy we booked the Brac island adventure week instead. For any families reading this, follow this tip. If you book the Brac island week, simply book a post extension stay and bolt on the canyoning activity. It was the perfect end to the active week.
Gilda Laney (Kineton)

Family of five
We’re a family of five with three girls in their mid teen years. We all love adventure, exploring like a local, and new enjoying immersive experiences. We’d heard great things about Croatia and saw your holiday mentioned in the Telegraph. Our big 2 week adventure was hosted by the fantastic Russo and Marisa. We had one week on the mainland and one week on Brac island. They are a dream team, bonding the families together. Nothing was too much trouble and they never ran out of energy, support and fun. Always going the extra mile to make sure the whole group had their magical experience. The age matching which isn’t a pure science, was amazing. Loads of girls and boys the same age. We particularly loved the gala meals. What a great way to start and end each week. Croatia was fascinating, especially Brac. The people are like the weather. Warm and inviting. If looking for a teenager activity holidays for families, I’d recommend to use you.
Jenny Given (Southampton)

Scenery was
We booked a week with Green World Holidays on Brac island. We are a family of 5. 1 boy and 2 teenager girls. It really worked well. We thought the balance of arranged activities and free time to chill and do your own thing was ideal. One of the highlights was the Shepherds village hike and meal which Daniel our tour leader arranged. The scenery was spectacular and the meal was delicious. The local wine was also very good! Great memories.
Hugh Simpson (Shrewsbury)

Spot amongst
Thank you, Green World Holidays, for a wonderful week of fun and friendship. We met some lovely families and kids clicked very quickly with the other teenagers. Eti and Daniel were both legends. Nothing was too much trouble. The kids loved the activities particularly the water sports. I loved the biking activity it was difficult at the start but once up in the hills it was cool and pretty. The farewell meal was also a lovely spot amongst the olive trees with a lovely sunset over the mainland. We went to the mainland after the week with Green World which was nice but Brac captured our hearts.
Samantha Davies (Chiswick)

Prettiest places
Brac is one of the prettiest places I have been. We loved the pretty old town and promenade. It was so laid back and safe for the kids to explore. Daniel our tour leader was exceptional. What a truly lovely guy. So professional but so much fun. Our activities were pitched just right. I was personally a bit worried about the rock climbing but it turned out to be my favourite activity.
Ed Summers (Hull)

Incredibly patient
One of our best family holidays for sure. Croatia is stunning. Fabulous water for swimming and Omis and Split old towns are great to explore. The optional boat trip to Brac island was also well worth it. Barisa and Ivan were our main tour leaders and they were incredibly patient, kind and a lot of fun. Our teenage daughters loved the zip line and canyoning in particular. We all loved the farewell dinner as well. The owner did an impromptu toast and played music and got us all dancing. It was brilliant. Thank you Green World Holidays.
Anita King (Glasgow)

The sunset hike
We loved our Croatia family holiday. Barisa and Antoanela our tour leaders were wonderful. So knowledgeable but also so much fun. Day 2 was great as we did sea kayaking and the sunset hike in the evening so by day 3 everyone was already well bonded. Kids loved the zip line although I found it scary, especially the first one. Rafting was my favourite. Our skipper was hilarious. I can definitely recommend this holiday to families with teenagers looking to get the kids off their screens and have some good natural fun.
Debbie Griffin (Lincoln)

Caring and considered
This was one of our BEST EVER family holidays. Even our boys who are normally so guarded said the same and kept on thanking us! The hotel was ideally positioned in the pretty coastal town of OMIS. The activities were exciting and well organised. The weather was simply perfect, but the standout elements were our guides Barisa and Russell who were so much fun but also so caring and considered. We were lucky also to be with a lovely group of families with similar aged teenagers, which made the whole vibe mega. We played volleyball on the beach, did a boat tour together and countless meals and drinks. We will be back!
Don Oliver (Sidbury)

I was really proud of
Croatia is simply gorgeous. We had a wonderful 2 weeks exploring the coast and spending a fun filled week in Podstrana with Green World Holidays. The Villa was lovely and the teens loved hanging out together by the pool and walking to the beach and using the inflatable assault course. Activities were pitched just right. Active and adventurous but not extreme. I managed to do all the activities which I was really proud of. Although my personal highlight was the optional boat tour you organised to Brac island. This was a magic day that I think we will all look back on fondly. Special thanks to Marija and Sara our tour leaders. Stipe our mini bus driver who was also a brilliant historian & Russell in the UK office who helped with all the pre-trip information.
Jaye Ellignton (Keynsham)

Green World team
A BIG thank you to all the Green World team. We had a blast and felt well looked after from start to finish. Brett in the office helped with all our initial questions and any pre trip info we needed. Maria and Sara in resort were tremendous. Always going above and beyond for the well-being of the group. Our favourite activities were tubing and canyoning. Tubing was hilarious and canyoning although I was nervous beforehand turned out to be a family highlight.
Guy Holly (Hemel Hempstead)

Week of thrills
What a wonderful week of thrills spills and good company. Thank you, Sara & Maria, for looking after us. You are both wonderful. Creating a safe and fun environment for our teenagers whilst helping parents actually have a holiday ourselves. It worked so well and we met so many other nice families. For this stage in life it really did work perfectly. Thank you again
Rachel Evans (Richmond)

Our impression is
Our impression is that Brac island is really underrated area in the Croatian press. We could never imagine that one island could have such a diverse and beautiful nature. The village where you’re based, is a great location for parents and for teens. They get to wonder around the streets in the evening, and there are plenty street performers that entertain tourists. Apartment, transfers and activities were great. Thank you to Russo and Daniel.
Oliver Grove (Teddington)

We are back after
We are back after our family holiday in Croatia. I have to admit canyoning was more challenging than I anticipated, even after watching the videos and reading notes. Personally, I was mostly amazed with people we met during our week. Kids still brag about our Tour leaders Sara and Barry, who were a great role models for our two teens. You are lucky to have such a dedicated and professional people working for you.
Geraldine Smith (Norwich)

My advice is
Activity week in Croatia was great, thanks for asking. We will share some photos on your Facebook page, you can let other families know as well. My husband didn’t participated in some activities due to his back injury so he managed to relax more around the pool. I was tired as the week went on, but it was still enough time to recover with the glass of wine and lovely company in the evenings. My advice is to come for longer than 7 nights. Your office staff offer lots of great advice.
Hannah Martin (Nottingham)

All the way through
Excellent experience! It’s hard to name only one favourite activity. I would say quad biking day was my favourite, but this is mostly thanks to Dario, our guide, who was great fun to be around. We were completely muddy all the way through, with constant action. My teens loved kayaking and jumping of the high rocks. Spotless organization by your wonderful team, thank you!
Kevin Garrett (Glasgow)

My only comment is
I booked your Omis Multi adventure week for our family of 5, and we all loved it! Everything was perfectly organised, from airport arrival to departure. Our accommodation was to a high 4 star standard. Hotel Plaza Omis is set on the beach with a rooftop hot tub. A great area and ideal for teens to hang out all the time. Activities were scheduled nicely from easiest to more challenging ones as the week went. My only comment is that you could let everyone know on their arrival about using the hotel washing services, we didn’t know how it really works.
Shirley Law (Telford)

Worry free
We had an amazing time in Podstrana. Other families in our group were lovely, our guides were great, and they made the week completely worry free! Thanks to all involved. We would consider doing another of your Croatia family adventure holidays for next summer.
Danny Lee (East Sheen)

Hot day piece of cake
Firstly, we want to thank to Mario, Daniel and Ete for taking such a good care of us during our week on the Island. We could not ask for better hosts! You guys throw the best pizza parties and you even made our cycling day on that hot day piece of cake, with all the laughs and support! Note for other travellers: bring beach shoes, all beaches we visited are pebbly.
Caroline Bettridge (Chester)

Single Dad with two kids
I am a single dad with two kids, I usually spend summer holidays in resorts, this always seemed the easiest option when travelling with kids. Now, after our week in Croatia, I changed my mind completely, thanks to your team. Kids enjoyed hanging out with other teenagers and this allowed some actual holiday time for myself! Omis is such a beautiful European town and perfectly safe for kids to walk around by themselves in the early evening. Thank you Russo, Uros and the team!
Carl Howells (Leicester)

Croatia is incredible
I have to say; you will not be forgotten that easily! We just came back after amazing two weeks in Croatia and this beautiful country lived up to our expectations. You have some amazing rivers and set ups to do all these adventures. We met great people and your guides were extremely professional, especially during rafting and canyoning.
Joanna Caelo (Swindon)

Heard some great stories
We’ve enjoyed our family adventure with you guys. Kids are thrilled, it was a first family holiday where we ALL agreed it was a success. We are not the most fit parents and we mostly did this because of our children but you know what, we actually decided to do more walks and hikes after we came back home. Thanks to your hosts, we also learned a lot about the area and heard some great stories about Croatia. Well done team!
Angela Singleton (Cardiff)

Thank you!
5-star family adventure holiday in Croatia. The best part was the company of other people. An excellent family trip experience organised by caring guides and travel managers. Thank you Maria, Barisa, Sara and Russell.
Cormac Lucey (Dublin)

Team made a difference!
All the team made a difference! Special praise to Daniel, Eti and Ivo; and also to Brett in the UK office.
Gareth Jenkins (Malvern)

Benefited local people
A wonderful active holiday in Omis for families. I recommend it for families with teenagers in particular. I would say just give everything a go. You will come away with a smile on your face. The holiday also benefited local people. It was made clear by all the staff that Croatia as a country and Croatians as individuals take conversation very seriously. We need to take this attitude back with us.
Mark Bevis (London)

Passionate about their country!
The Croatia activity holiday was excellent. A fantastic location and superb activities. Our guides although young were brilliant at their jobs and had people skills of the highest calibre. They were very passionate about their country. Everybody we met (instructors and drivers) were friendly and knowledgeable. A great family adventure vacation.
Jane Hanby (Southampton)

Excellent on all levels
It was excellent on all levels. I loved every aspect of this holiday in Croatia. Each activity was a new & interesting experience; which I hadn’t tried before. I would recommend to anyone doing this activity holiday to give all activities a try; even if you’re scared of them.
Morgan Bevis (London)

10 out of 10!
10 out of 10. Travelled with my two kids. It was simply excellent. Thank you. Ps – the ice cream on Brac island is fantastic – eat as much as you can.
Elvie Stuart (Birdingbury)

We chose well!
A really good active family holiday. Our tour guides were excellent; very knowledgeable, friendly and always happy to arrange free days and restaurant reservations.
Andy Powell (Cirencester)

Crazy Olympic games!
SUP boarding and crazy Olympic games were my highlight; they were both hilarious. Sasha our driver was very helpful. Miha and Vida also very helpful and friendly. Especially helpful helping us organise an extra activity on our free day. They were excellent with the kids too.
Kanika Shaw (Bishops Stortford)

Great active family holiday
A great active family holiday in Croatia. Super fun activities, a wonderful & pretty location to be based in and a lovely group of people to share it with. The hotel location were terrific. An excellent 4 star property. Its relaxed and informal 7 night trip and our teens loved it. Guides were excellent and extremely kind and fun.
Fran Smith (Bickley Town)

Tour leaders were amazing!
This family holiday in Croatia was excellent. Highlights for me were the waterfall drops during the rafting activity. I also enjoyed the optional boat day to the amazing Locina bay [apologies for spelling] and swimming in the clean waters and rivers. Croatia was so green and clean; it was a joy. The program did benefit the local economy as we used the bars, cafes and restaurants in Podstrana. Our tour leaders were amazing and helped with everything. Simply put a brilliant active family holiday.
Emily Dyer (Kingston upon Thames)

Easy and relaxing!
I loved the activities and meeting new people and families with similar aged teenagers. Exploring Split was also great – we loved this part of Croatia. I enjoyed all elements of the activities and the social aspect was a big plus. Seeing our children having a great time is what makes it so good; easy and relaxing for parents with teens.
Gareth Smith (Bridgenorth)

4th trip with Green
This is our 4th trip with Green World Holidays and you keep improving. It’s always the nice subtle personal touches that you deliver which make a huge impact and you always hire terrific guides. Keep doing what you are doing; keep it personal, simple and adventurous. Climbing and SUP boarding were my highlight. I was scared and very proud that I managed all the climbing walls. In regard to other travellers considering booking this Croatia adventure holiday I would say come with an open mind; get stuck in from the start and enjoy. All the staff members were very very good. We loved the location. Croatia is lovely; its clean; friendly and safe. The nature is pristine and un-spoilt. It’s up there as my favourite holiday of all time. You are doing something right!
Clare Murray (Hemel Hempsted)

Age matching spot on!
We are repeat clients of Green World Holidays and I would like to rate the Croatia family adventure program 5 stars. I loved the activities and close access to nature. The canyoning was everyone’s favourite. My husband and I enjoyed it very much and the kids said it was ‘best ever’ (even better than our family adventure week in Slovenia). Such a great team and lovely families. The accurate age matching at Green World is one of the main reasons we come back time and time again.
Kate Gore (Hornchurch)

Environmentally friendly holiday
I loved our holiday in Croatia with you guys. Omis was gorgeous, and we loved being in the old town close to all the action especially the ice cream cafes. Ice-wave was awesome. It was so much, and I felt it was definitely an environmentally friendly active holiday. Croatia is definitely not a mass market kind of destination.
Scarlett Spoerry (Ilkey)

Activities were wicked!
Awesome family holiday in Croatia. I didn’t know what to expect but it was so pretty, and the activities were wicked. I loved the white water rafting although I was the only one to fall out. All the staff were very nice, fun and supportive. A super and well organized holidays – thanks!
Toby Carley (Clothall)

We will be back
Separating the parents and the kids on the welcome meal was a fabulous idea and helped everyone gel really quickly. We loved being based in Omis, restaurants and café culture was ideal and especially suited for older teens as they could explore safely. The activities were all excellent, but my favourite was kayaking. The scenery was beautiful, and guides were fabulous. In the words of NIKE ‘Just Do It!’ We haven’t ever been on a holiday like this before and we loved every minute of it. Some fabulous experiences and wonderful memories to take away. Meeting other like-minded and fun families really added to the fun & laughter. Omis is absolutely beautiful; we will be back. Thank you to our fabulous hosts who were all kind, helpful and really made sure we had a great time!
Caroline Edge (Sheffield)

Excellent on all levels!
What an awesome family adventure in Croatia. 100% feedback from me. It was excellent on all levels. I particularly enjoyed splashing my new friends during the SUP boarding and my top tip is always have a supply of hairibo with you.
Charlie Walter (Kings Langley)

Kayaking was highlight!
Everything was great, but kayaking was my highlight and the optional boat trip were very memorable. On our free day we went to Aqua water park which was great fun. I definitely think this program benefited local people as we were taken to local restaurants, venues and local places where possible. My kids loved canyoning the most. This was a perfect trip, thank you.
Leo Dunne (Rochdale)

Excellent holiday destination!
Croatia is an excellent active holiday destination. Omis was a great base and ideal for families with teenagers. All the team were brilliant, and the activities were great fun. We felt the local economy was well supported by working with local guides and companies. Our tour leaders Barisa, Russo and Sacha worked really hard and looked after us very well.
Karen Espom (Reading)

Positive, fun & committed
Fabulous family activity holiday in Croatia. Our guides were terrific; really positive, fun & committed and proud of their country, culture and nature; and rightly so Croatia is gorgeous!
Jo Goale (Chiswick)

Good times!
Our Croatia family activity holiday was epic. My highlights were the SUP boarding and the zip lining. We had such a good time! Thanks Damir, Russo and Maria.
Issy Carney (Horsham)

Excellent adventure holiday!
It was an excellent adventure holiday in Slovenia. My favourite moments were the Atlantis water park and the stand-up paddle boarding. I can highly recommend this holiday; my only tip which I imagine most people would do on an adventure holiday is bring a ruck sack with a towel and some snacks in case you get hungry after activities.
Joshua Maltby (Chislehurst)

Friendly and welcoming
The activities were good and all instructors were professional, friendly and welcoming. I felt all the activities were environmentally friendly. Tomo, Nera and Antonia were amazing. They offered a good balance of professionalism and friendliness. Always there if you needed them & went above & beyond to make our family activity holiday in Croatias the best experience.
Oliver Rowl (Chester)

I’d recommend it!
It was a fantastic family adventure in Croatia. The main staff Barisa and Russo were very helpful and nice. All the activities were extremely good fun. Id recommend this type of holiday to other parents researching. We found you via Instagram and friends sharing a link to it. Hope that helps.
Sam Carney (Horsham)

Truly beautiful island!
Brac island is truly beautiful. We stayed in a stunning coastal village, only 20 minutes from Supetar. Apartments are 3 stars, with a shared pool and sun lounging areas. Beach and restaurants are only short 5 minute walk away. Walk to the top of the apartment building and reward yourself with the early morning and late evening vibes. Myself and husband would steal a few minutes away from the teenagers and have a coffee here. Our secret place! Exclusive group dinner on the first evening meant an early bonding with our fellow family travellers. This undoubtedly led to a very sociable atmosphere on the Croatia multi activity holiday thereafter. The 5 star status came from the tour leaders and general staff. The booking process was superb, as was the transfers and intridictions. Safety is first, followed by lots of fun. Our favourite trip was with Daniel on the Shepherd’s Walk. If available book it! Brac is a great island for hiking & snorkelling and some of the coves and bays are staggeringly beautiful. You can really switch off here. It’s very safe and your kids will love the independence and freedom. Our Tour leader was Daniel and I cannot praise him highly enough. He worked very hard on our behalf and cared for us and cared about us. He was very knowledgeable about the areas we visited and was always able crack a joke. Thank you Green World for a great active family holiday in Croatia. For families with teenagers this is the perfect trip.
Hayley Brighton (Stourport)

Nice sociable holiday!
I loved all the activities especially the SUP boarding. But for me my favourite part was actually the gala meals. It was a really nice time hanging out and getting to know the other parents. For kids and teenagers to get off their phones and be little humans. I felt booking with an independent tour operator made a big difference in regards to care and passion from the drivers right through to the main reps and activity leaders. They really made a big impact and impression but the ones who stood out were: Etay was a really nice and funny and she really helped us out with lots of facts and information. Daniel was also very nice and always available if you need any help.
Will Jenkins (Malvern)

Brac has it covered!
Wouldn’t hesitate to do this Croatia adventure holiday all over again. Brac is so perfect for active families. The other people we met on this trip were fun and on the level. Sunshine & blue skies kick start the days, and star watching & lovely food to wind down the evenings. At times when we got tired, we chilled on the beach, indulged in more food, slept with a book in hand. Our hosts Alexi & Jelena are full of beans, lovely people and really made this experience 10/10. The activity instruction is professional and we felt in safe hands throughout. If you’ve never done this kind of thing before and want to have an active but chillaxing time, then Brac has it covered. We loved it.
Tiffany Riggs (Whitlington)

Joyful and encouraging crew
Firstly our Omis adventure holiday was fantastic and will always stay in my memory. I loved every part but canyoning and ziplining was my highlight. I would say to people interested in this holiday then be prepared to throw yourself into it. If you give your all and keep an open mind you will be rewarded with the most wonderful holiday. As well as showcasing a beautiful country it also show cased a sensitive and respectful kindness between tourists, locals and our natural environment. I feel no need to add names to this review. I can not express how kind hearted, joyful, supportive, encouraging and funny every single staff member, driver and guides were. They all tried their upmost to ensure that we had the best holiday possible.
James Lorrimore (Leighton Buzzard )

Great teenage adventure
Our family experienced an adventure holiday in Australia and certainly was not disappointed by this years one in Croatia. Professional staff, stunning beach locations and secluded bays. Food throughout was exceptionally good and excellent vlaue. Highlights? There were so many! From meeting the other families, relaxing on the beach, seeing the sunsets, seeing so many places. Its been a cracking time, thanks again! Mitch & family x
Mckenzie family (Peterborough)

High energy levels!
We were looking around for along time to find a suitable family activity holiday in Europe; so were glad to find a family owned company, that offered the personal touch. With a Dad who’s an adrenaline junkie, and two teenage children with high energy levels, i really didn’t expect to find the perfect fit trip. I guess the fitting had alot to do with your knowledge and patience Maria, so I’m writing to express our sincere thanks. We had a fab time
Michelle Seal (Cheltenham)

A beautiful oasis!
A beautiful oasis to be found in Croatia. We felt totally relaxed in the professional care of Green World. Not only are the staff expert instructors and highly trained at teaching, but they took care of our transfers, delicious gala meals and a lot of great banter. All the other family guests are like minded, so we got on famously and swapped facebook addresses at the end. No strangers – only friends to be made here!!! Really liked the daily routine of food, advewnture, food, wine, food, chill, sun, sea, more food, drink, relax, sleep. REPEAT! The 7 nights stay was very comfy. Loved our balcony and roof terrace for sunsets. The holiday went too quickly (that was my only negative). It’s a incredible family active holiday and I’d recommend to anyone, but be prepared to put some effort into the cycling, a degree of good fitness will help. But either way, if you get tired you can always sunbathe and swim in the sea – its not a bad life there lol ….thanks to all for a great time.
Henry Brown (Leicester)

Ice cream challenge
I enjoyed our family activity holiday in Slovenia immensely. My favourite activity was the SUP boarding through Ljubljana. The ice cream challenge was hilarious and my numerous splashes were very memorable. I would say make the most of all your opportunities as these experiences don’t come round a lot.
Joe Jenkins (Malvern)

Keeps moody teens happy
We booked this trip very late, in a desperate attempt of keeping our moody teens happy . We hadn’t any previous knowledge of Green World Holidays, but your excellent Trip Advisor reviews gave us the confidence that you guys know how to handle families with teenagers. We knew Croatia would be lovely, but Brac island is a real gem. It was 7 nights of fun, adventure and excellent food. I felt very relaxed at the end of our stay and only wished we’d had more time to stay longer. Many thanks to Daniel our super guide and Alex in the UK office that suggested the trip. Top tip to others ? Buy the 5 Euro water shoes, wear lots of sun protection, join the shepherds day tour on your free day with Daniel and try the Jacob’s instant coffee. Kindest regards, Margret xox
Margaret Russell (Fulham)

Lots of fun!
I can understand why so many Green World customers class their Croatia multi active holidays as one of their best family holidays. It certainly goes down as my favourite with us; and I am pleased to say that I am still in touch with the families we met, good old facebook.
Danielle Day (Manchester)

Great family escape!
I first visited Brac some 18 years ago and was so relieved when returning with my family this summer that island life had remained the same. Our family has had the fortunate opportunity to get to see some amazing parts of the world due to my job but Brac has a very special place in my heart. It’s a hard place to leave! Sutivan had a wonderful charm to it, excellent choices of food each evening and no grumbling children is always a great sign. We did try a few local restaurants in Supetar, which I’d say were excellent value. We also dined in the hills another evening, I shall dig out the name if you require?! The daily activities were superbly organised. Your drivers and guides always on time and making us feel very welcome. Technically, each day was different from the next, so we loved the challenges of something new. It’s given us a great insight to many sports, so next time we visit we might just try one or two sports, and try to improve our skill levels! I very much enjoyed sea kayaking but the views from the mountain biking were just so inspiring. The beach was a stones throw from the apartments, so we pretty much relaxed there a lot of the time. The boys tried the jet skis and myself and oldest daughter went on long walks around the bay. The water is so warm and still, so inviting. We’d recommend anyone to buy those 4 euros beach shoes. It means the pebble beaches are not a problem and you can swim in these shoes with ease. Would we come back to Brac again? Oh definitely! It’s a real gem and I hope it doesn’t become to well known! Please say hi and thanks to Eti, Mario and Daniel – what amazing guides!

Parents with teenagers!
Do it! Parents with teenagers…..worried about them grunting and griping through your family holiday? Not with Green World! This active holiday catered for the whole family. Stunning twin stay locations with fabulous food and architecture, plus more than enough teen focus food outlets including vegan, ramen, pizza, pancake and burger bars. Eat together or after introductions are made let them hunt and gather their own food with new friends while the adults enjoy the many bars and restaurants on offer. We felt very safe and we were more than happy for our son to mooch with his new friends. The activities are aimed well for teens and adults, for those with no experience and those with some….even the most reluctant had a go at something….would have been even better if there was opportunity to push yourself a little further with optional trips for more extreme sports like bungee jumps or sky dives etc….? Group size worked well and a good balance of ages and gender for kids….great being able to find this out at the start. because our booking depended on there being other kids for George to hang out with. Gala meals at the beginning and end of the holiday are a great way of getting to know people. In summary, we had a Brilliant time. Super two weeks away.

Attention to detail
I know I said thank you at the Airport on Sunday to your local guides but I would just like to say a BIG thank you again for your staffs quietly professional approach to this Brac island family activity holiday. Your initial preparation and attention to detail made the family trip run as smoothly as it did. Your guides treated our family like their own and we appreciated that personal touch. That’s a credit to the company’s values. Kindest Regards, Janet Sealey.
Sealey family (Glasgow)


Brilliant holiday, thanks!
Excellent location and wonderful activities as part of this Croatian adventure. The guides and staff made it even more memorable. Our family highlights were the canyoning experience day and white water rafting. There’s not alot of things i would have changed about this week, it was the correct balance of adventure fun and relaxation. The 4 star apartments was perfect, dinners included were excellent and the other families were like minded and sociable (not sure if thats normal or we were lucky). I would come to Podstrana again, but i think we’ll try somewhere new. Thank you Russo our Tour Leader, who was very personable throughout and clearly cared about his work and guests.
Patrizia Kuhn (Northampton)

Feel real Croatia!
Hello Maria, I hope you have had a good weekend. Yes, we had a great multi active holiday in Croatia. Thank you for all your help in organising our tour. We’ll stay in contact for future trips. We certainly would recommend Brac island to feel the real Croatia.
Natalie Marshall (Leeds)

Thumbs up!
Our leaders Russo and Barisa were excellent in everything. Put in a lot of time and effort to ensure we had the best holiday experience. It was frustrating to miss the first part of the holiday and some of the activities, due to missing our flight connection, but i guess thats life. I’m looking forward to seeing the extra pictures on your facebook page, if you can send the bigger j-pegs it would be appreciated. Altogether, thumbs up
Philips Family (Leicester)

We loved Croatia
We had a brilliant time. The week was quite the experience, with such wonderful families. We loved our apartment. Nice balcony, where we enjoyed breakfasts. Calm and relaxing. Our favourite activity turned out to be the optional tour, called Shepherd walk. All the families booked it, and we had an incredible time. Daniel the guide is a legend. We loved Croatia. Everyone without exception was friendly. We would recommend it to anyone.
Kind Regards, Jane
Jane Royd (Southport)

Activities fantastic
New challenges were made very good fun and rescue was always at hand when they proved too challenging lol From start to finish our contact with Green world guides and staff has been perfect. I would be more critical if possible, but it is not. Brac island is a delightful place, the apartments are neatly located to sea and shops, and transfers to activities were very quick. Our eldest teenagers have even talked about coming away with us next year!!! I guess we’re not so uncool after all.
Mary Turner (West London)

Apartments well located
We had a great time thanks. The activities were well organised and sensitively run by guides who were engaging, interesting and friendly. We felt very well looked after and having the activities to do meant that the chill out time we had was even more relaxing. Our apartment was comfortable and pleasant with good staff who were attentive and friendly. It was well-placed close to a beach and waterfront but also had a nice pool area. We had a great holiday as we were made to feel very special from the moment we were picked up from the airport. I would recommend this holiday to other active families and groups. Thanks for your organising which was first class and very helpful. All best, Andy & Elli
Andrew Barrow (Derby, Derbyshire)

Even teenagers are happy!
To answer your question: we all agreed that we need to come back to Croatia again. That’s how much we enjoyed our family holiday. Food was authentic, and organisation was immaculate! Guides, drivers and instructors work very hard to please every single teenager’s wishes!! Can’t thank them enough, hopefully we’ll be in touch again soon. It wasn’t a cheap holiday but it was worth it. Andrews family
Andrews family (London)

Canyoning was awesome!
Olives, wine and activities what’s more to want in life! Seriously though your 2 week big adventure program was outstanding. Brac was stunning. What a charming place. We would certainly consider going back again. Eti did an impromptu olive oil tasting for us which we really enjoyed and of course the kids loved Daniel & Mario and all the fun activities. Podstrana was great too. We particularly loved canyoning. It felt like a really well-balanced and authentic trip.
Jon Richardson (Gillingham)

Guides were excellent
We had a great time thanks. The local guides were excellent, really informative and engaging, and they clearly had a passion for all things outdoorsy with lots of interesting stories of previous adventures! Thanks for helping organise, Charley-Jo
Charlie-Jo Devlin (Newcastle upon Tyne)

The X-factor
This was our third Green World trip and was well up to the standards we’ve grown to expect with your active holidays. The main x-factor is the enthusiasm, friendliness and competence of all your staff. The tubing day was hilarious and a family highlight. Instruction throughout the 2 weeks was excellent and a credit to the tour leading ability of Daniel, Barsa, Sara and Maria. The food included in your program was excellent and restaurant choices all lovely. All in all, another successful activity week in what will sadly be the last (for a while) with my grown up teenagers. thank you as always, Alice & family xxx
Alice Parker (Reading)

Water-based activities
I am sorry to take so long to get back to you and thanks for your persistence. We had a fabulous time on our Croatian adventure holiday. Not only were the activities all great but we really enjoyed the visits to the local sites, beaches and the variety of meals offered in between times. Everyone was really friendly, and the accommodation was clean and comfortable. Our children (ages 15, 14 and 12) all had fun, particularly the water-based activities and hanging out with similar aged kids. One thing we really appreciated was the encouragement from the tour leaders; who really were superb. We would happily book another holiday with you guys!
Elena Wilcox (Kineton)

Happy kids
Thanks for a great week. We really loved Croatia. Warm people, fun activity days, tasty & fresh food, nice local wines, gorgeous sunsets and happy kids; what more could we ask for!
Jonny Spicer (Burton)

Charity quiz night
Our Croatian activity holiday was really good. We enjoyed it a lot. The accommodation was excellent and generally there was more involved in the activities than we had expected. The guides were great, and we got a good sense of the country and people. We were very lucky in that the other family were really nice and we had a great fun. The charity quiz night Barisa organised was a nice touch and a great laugh. The optional boat tour was also lovely, and I would recommend this to others. Canyoning was physically tough but I was warned. Really hats off to you guys!
Joanne Hollingsworth (Devon)

Terrific family adventure
Just a quick note to say thanks for organising a terrific family adventure for us in Croatia. The boys loved it and it felt like a holiday to all of us. I just wished I’d had more spare holidays as it would have been great to bolt a few days on either side.
Shannon Martin (Dublin)

Beauty of Croatia
We had a great time in Croatia with the Green World Holidays team. The weather wasn’t brilliant in the during our week but we managed to get all our activities in. The apartment was very good and met our needs perfectly – the barman knew our orders by the end of our holiday and everyone was very friendly. We have told all our friends about the beauty of Croatia, so I’m sure they will want to see for themselves. We posted lots of photos on Facebook! Best wishes
Jackie McRe (Middlesex)

So attentive
The Omis family activity holiday in Croatia was great fun. Omis is a stunning place. Authentic and charming. Split is relatively was close by and very attractive. We had a 3 night post stay there. The family owned 4 star hotel called Plaza was exceptional. Rooms were clean and spacious. Location was 5 stars right on the beach. The activity days were terrific. Barisa and his team were so attentive. We loved the canyoning in particular. Croatia is a beautiful country and hospitality is ingrained in the culture.
Kim Linden (London)

Slovenia is so pristine
Thanks for a great holiday. Slovenia is so pristine. Everywhere we went was so clean and picture postcard pretty. We have skied in France, Austria and Italy before but this family ski holiday in Slovenia was definitely up there with one of our best. The ski resorts were small but very well maintained and our guides made it very relaxing. The other families we met were lovely and our 2 teenage daughters clicked with the other teenagers very quickly. It was a really lovely experience. Thank you, Brett in the UK office, for putting us onto this trip. We would certainly be interested in your summer adventure holiday programs in Europe. Feel free to keep in touch!
Lyndus Jones (Swansea)

Croatia was terrific!
Our 2 weeks family activity holiday in Croatia was terrific. Daniel on Brac island was the main man; so funny, caring and professional. We loved the SUP boarding and the climbing. Brac was delightful too; what a place to live. Food was lovely and a nice range of places to eat out. In Podstrana on week 2 the activities were more energetic. The toughest being canyoning and the funniest being tubing. Our boys loved this holiday and I was delighted how well they socialised with the other kids. Special praise to Maria, Sara and Barisa as well. All 3 were diamonds.
Stuart Mears (Monmouth)

Authentic and fun
Special thanks to Nina for organising my birthday surprise and present during my stay. In respect to accommodation we stayed in, we were very impressed with our apartment.
Lovely sea views and pool. Having the guides there to show us the best restaurants was really helpful, and all your staff were engaging and positive. We were the only family not to have done an adventure holiday of this kind before. Two families had been with you in Croatia before and the other three families had done something similar in France or Spain. Everyone mixed well, and I think mums and dads were grateful of the age matching of the teenagers. Many thanks, Jen
Jennifer Willows (Brighton)

Ideal family holiday
Simply put this was an ideal holiday for a family with active teenagers. Days were full but not overly demanding. Climate was perfect and guides couldn’t have done more for us
Clare Bray (Finchampstead)

Loved it all
We loved this holiday. The highlight was the white-water rafting. The local guides were excellent & great fun. We also loved tubing – it was a relaxed & chatty group. Our tour leaders were also magicians at keeping everything going and looking after us all. Sara was especially good with the kids. Maria great with the parents. Enjoyed the social side, met fantastic people, kids all made friends.
Michael Jenkins (Bath)

Relaxing vibe!
We joined the Brac island family adventure week as part of our 3 week vacation in Croatia. It worked out really well as our group clicked and the kids were all very similar in ages and genders. Pretty much all of them were between 13 – 17 years so it meant the vibe was relaxing for everyone. We also had a nice surprise as one of our guides ‘Ivo’ had lived in New Zealand for a gap year and had actually travelled to our hometown. A very small world indeed.
Bruce Andersen (Wellington)

Tour leaders were fantastic!
We have all thoroughly enjoyed the Croatia activity holiday. Tour leaders were fantastic (please can they come home and entertain children!) All the activities were very enjoyable. Climbing & biking were challenging but not too much that i couldn’t do it. I was useless at wind surfing, but loved every minute of it. Really appreciate the organisation of the zip-line on our day off – the girls loved it (we have a brilliant video to share with you). Apartment staff was very helpful. Excellent adventure holiday all round and we would do it again! Many thanks.
Samantha Deer (Hove)

Well organised family trip
We had a fantastic two weeks. Podstrana and Brac island are stunning, perfect blend for parents with teenagers. Please keep inspiring families. Book the optional tours offered and speak to your travel manager about age matching. So helpful. kindest regards
Addey family (Bramley)

5 islands boat tour
We really enjoyed our Croatia active family vacation. We did this week as part of a longer trip and this week was our highlight. Our teenagers loved the activities and got on well with the other teens. Our guides Nera and Antonia were lovely and enthusiastic. Tomo our guide on the 5 island boat tour day was also brilliant and very knowledgeable. The parents learned a lot from Tomo and the kids gravitated to Nera and Antonia; so it was a nice balanced team.
Ken Morgan (Los Angeles)

Ski bikes the best
I wanted to do something fun with my 2 teenage sons and came across your Slovenia ski safari program online. I have to say it worked really well and was a lot of fun but very well organised. Our guides Vida and Jaka were legends. My boys really enjoyed the social side of things which takes the pressure off us parents. Highlights were skiing at Vogel which was one of those blue sky epic days and of course the ski bikes. The ski bikes were the best and simply hilarious fun.
Roger Hollingsworth (Colchester)

Croatia Rocks
This was a brilliant 2-week active holiday in Croatia. Our 2 teens loved the activities and the social side was inspired. Week 1 on Brac was more chilled and prepared us nicely for week 2 in Podstrana where there was more splash action. Both weeks we met lovely families and socially it was fab. We also had enough free time to have what I would call some ‘me’ time and we all came back feeling like we had; had an amazing vacation. Croatia Rocks!
Fallon Levinson (Chelmsford)

Fun and relaxing
It was a superb fun and relaxing family activity holiday in Croatia. The other families were very sociable with similar aged teenagers, so that is always a big bonus. Thank you to all involved, we are happy to recommend Green World to anyone with teenagers who like the great outdoors and seeing authentic places!
Helen Pearson (Sydney)

Eco aware and fun!
I highly recommend this activity holiday to any families who like beautiful nature, authentic experiences and fun activities. You will not be disappointed, Croatia is one of the best European destinations for watersports especially for kids. Safety was number one priority during our adventure week and guides never missed an opportunity to talk about Eco awareness. they even encouraged our boys to pick up some litter on one of the beaches, which we hardly ever manage to do at home! Well done Maria & team.
Grant Aldridge (Telford)

We loved climbing!
The Green Holidays staff were excellent – very knowledgeable, interesting, friendly young people. The apartments staff were also very helpful and charming. For me, the gala meals were too meaty, but obviously Croatians like meat! The organisation of the activities was excellent and very professional. I really enjoyed the sea kayaking and the climbing. We were a bit unfortunate with the weather at the start of the week but the staff were very flexible about making the activities work in spite of this.
Elena Herdman (Bristol)

Perfect week in Slovenia
Discovering Slovenia was a lovely surprise. The week in Ljubljana was perfect for ensuring that kids and adults had a great holiday. I did write a longer feedback review on your paper forms, i believe Bostjan has it.
White family (Dorchester)

Well thought out
What a fantastic holiday. Our teenage son and daughter both got a lot from this experience. The social side worked really well and of course activities were great fun but not too extreme for the parents. A well thought out and balanced program! We would be up for another holiday like this.
Sian Williams (Harlesden)

No stress!
We liked the look of this holiday because it was something a bit different. It turns out to be a great call. Our teenagers really appreciated the variety and the option to hang out with other families was terrific. During the ski days it was very laid back; you could still do your own thing; it didn’t feel like a boot camp. As out guide Bostjan would always say ‘no stress!’ So, thanks to Green World for organising everything and delivering a great family ski holiday in Slovenia!
Lesley Small (Harpenden)

Trip to remember!
Too many highlights to write here, from the parent ‘Lilo wars’ to cruising on a boat and sitting underneath a huge waterfall. Seeing dolphins off the coast of Brac and alot of afternoon gin n tonics going on tee hee. Still in touch with the gang, so if u want more pix there’s plenty on Facebook. Sending hugs to Maria, Nina, Antonija, Daniel and Super-mario. You made it a trip to remember xxx
Helen Norton (Stamford)

Nema Problema
What can I say…. Other than thank you! We all had a great time. Your team are all so affable and professional. Our teenage sons really got stuck in and when their guards were down admitted this was one of their best holidays ever. Please tell Barisa they still say ‘Nema Problema’ back home in the UK!
Nick Millard (Southampton)

Trip was a success!
Hi Maria! We had a great time during our family activity holiday in Croatia and were amazed at how inexpensive everything was. Your reps did a wonderful job of reorganizing our activities when the weather wasn’t good. She even organized an olive oil tasting for us of her family’s olive oil that my family really appreciated. The apartments were just the right size for us – the smaller one for me and my husband and the larger one for our active teenagers. We enjoyed sitting on our balconies and by the pool. Yalena was very helpful to us. She gave us a warm welcome when we arrived and explained everything in the apartments to us. She also helped us to communicate with Daniel when my cell phone wasn’t working properly, and helped my son do laundry toward the end of our stay. We must also thank all guides, especially for meeting us at the airport when we arrived and saw us almost every day during our stay on Brac Island. She was an excellent driver and guide and also served as our translator when we visited an olive oil museum where the local guide spoke no English. I would highly recommend Green World Holidays and the Brac Island package to anyone planning a family adventure holiday to Croatia. Since there was always someone we could contact who spoke English, we didn’t have to worry about communication. Your team was amazing and made sure that we had an excellent family holiday. Thank you, too, Maria, for all your help in planning our trip to Brac Island and making it a success! Yvette Morrill
Yvette Morrill (Walpole, MA, USA)

We loved it all!
The most exciting part of my holiday was the zip lines closely followed by the rafting down the rapids. The kayaking was the more skillful activity. Your activity staff were super. Using Podstrana as a central base was a clever way to see alot more of this fabulous country. It is still unspoilt. We had a great family holiday and would recommend it to other families with children above 10, preferably 12, to get the best out of the holiday. Some wet suits need updating, and an option to see the blue cave systems would have been nice. But I appreciate you don’t like to work with speedboats.
Moss Family (Stamford)

Croatia is gorgeous
Thanks for a lovely holiday. Croatia is gorgeous and so well set up for families. Our teenagers loved the vibe and our guides Antonia, Nera and Tomo were wonderful. They couldn’t do more for you. Thanks Green World!
Rebecca Newman (Havant)

Dubrovnik is stunning
The Dubrovnik activity week in Croatia was great. We really liked Lapad where we were based and of course Dubrovnik itself is stunning. Of course, it is very busy but still a terrific place to explore. Our guides were great and activity days very enjoyable. The only thing I would say is for my son and I it was probably a bit on the tame side; but I do appreciate you are not advertising this as an extreme adventure holiday.
Dave Berry (Northampton)

Ski safari was brilliant
The Slovenia ski safari was brilliant. It was really good fun and social. Vida and Jaka our guides were so attentive and great with the kids. It was really nice just having it all planned out so we literally just got up had breakfast and off we went. The hotel was lovely and next door was the waterpark which we used a couple of times. The kids loved the slides and parents enjoyed the heated pools and hammam spa area. The ski resorts were very pretty; and all very modern. For good skiers you wouldn’t want to stay in one resort as there wouldn’t be enough terrain but that’s why the ski safari works so well. Each day we did somewhere different. Overall a great family ski holiday!
Richard Owen (Basingstoke)

Lovely families
Our time on the rivers and Adriatic waters and surrounding area was the escape we needed. We came into contact with some lovely families, who couldn’t have been more compatible. The meals included were fantastic, all sharing a great laugh over fabulous food and great memories from the activity weeks experienced. Not a dull moment during the whole 2 weeks in Croatia. Very hard to pinpoint a very best bit, but watching the whole family complete the canyon was a great feeling. Already missing the green world gang! Thanks to all, please keep in touch.
Magda Gomez (Maidstone)

Splash action!
We had an amazing week full of splash action; laughs and lots of sun. The boat tour you organised was a family highlight. It was a perfect day and coming back at sunset was a magic moment. We also loved the setting for the farewell meal up in the hills. Again a lovely sunset under open skies. The kids loved the water sports especially the white water rafting and canyoning. Us oldies liked the sea kayaking! Special praise to Maria, Sara and Barisa and to Rachel in the office.
Tom Hegge (Durham)

Guides worked very hard
We had an amazing time!! Our group were lovely, and we have made a few more face book friends for sure. Conditions were great and we had time to ourselves too. Our guides worked very hard and Barisa was a genuine and lovely guy, very approachable and helpful.
Transfers worked well and our accommodation was brilliant. Yet again Green world holidays has come up with the goods! I have to say again you made it a pleasure to book and we were confident that the trip would be well organized from the transfers to the packing check-list.
The personal touches and customer service will keep us coming back to you. Please send us a t-shirt and Sarah and I will do some promo for you! Thanks for giving us another terrific holiday. We had a blast. Feel free to use this email as a testimonial.
Zoe Allun (Leeds)

Very attentive to kids!
Wonderful family adventure holiday on Brac island. Maria was very thorough prior to the holiday – calling to check and double check details.We were collected from Zadar and brought to Split then on the ferry and onto your adventure base. Absolutely gorgeous coastal like village. with plenty of bars, cafes and restaurants. It made for a very friendly and safe environment. Daniel was our local host and was amazing and extremely attentive to all the kids – kids had a wonderful time partly due to Daniels great interest in the kids. We did rock climbing / kayaking / mountain biking / SUP / visited the Shepherd village where they prepared a feast for the group (optional tour but a must do!) It was the best holiday we have had – kids were 16 / 13 and 11 we would definitely do this type of holiday again. We have 3 post nights stay close to Trogir, where we booked white water rafting and canyoning. We enjoyed these additional trips, so its a good idea for families that like to stay busy. Last tip is Split airport, its still can get busy at peak times, so bring bottled water to the airport on your departure. It will help with the queues. Once through security there are other cafes, but there is not a whole lot of choice.
Etain Wilson (Galway)

Loved the little surprises!
Fantastic holiday. We had a wonderful time in Slovenia, Ljubljana is a great destination for city break and for a family adventure. There was a high standard of activities which the guides made a lot of fun. The “surprises” your team organised were fabulous. Thank you.
Gerald Dawes (West Mercia)

Energetic and charming guides
This was my first time at doing this type of group holiday and experience and it worked well. My teenage daughter really appreciated the other teens to hang out with and it was easy for me to rely on our tour guides to coordinate the days. Jelena and Mario were both great. Lovely, energetic and charming. We had some lobely moments especially on the island boat your day. Thanks again!
Sonia Peters (Oxford)

Very rewarding experiences!
Hi Russ, I am really sorry this is so late getting to you. I did do a review but then hit some button and the page disappeared into cyberspace. We all enjoyed our adventure holiday with you and Maria. Overall, it was an extremely well organised venture with lots of variety on the island. We laughed all through the following week on the beach remembering different tours we did with you. Highlights were SUP boarding and climbing, not to be missed. Very rewarding experiences for me personally. We plan to do a similar type of holiday next year, in fact we can never do a ‘do nothing but chill’ holiday ever again. Thanks so much to all of you for giving us such a great experience! Celine Dignan
Celine Dignan (Oxford)

Laughter and smiling
Our two-week Croatia activity holiday consisted of a large amount of laughter and smiling. With our fellow thrill-seeking families, we jumped on and off boats, kayaked to secluded beaches and rode white water rapids. In the daytime we explored the sea, canyons, rural Dalmatian villages and paddled down the exquisite Cetina river. I felt my children bonded well with the other kids, which always takes the pressure off mum and dad. Our family highlights??? We enjoyed the unforgettable sunsets on Brac Island. My husband booked onto the Ziplines, with our eldest daughter (they loved it). My younger son just loved just hanging out by the pool with the other kids. It was magic.
Rachael Evans (Cheltenham)

Fab for restless teenagers!
Like most teenagers our kids are restless so we choose Green World Holidays because a) we had heard a lot of nice things about Croatia and b) we wanted pre arranged activities so the whole family could join in together. I have to say it was superb. Marija and Russ our guides were brilliant, everything was no trouble and the whole experience was first class, fun and somehow still re-energising. Thanks for your recommendation and organisation!
Kathy Zepetti (Birmingham)

Perfect for teenagers
Our 2-week family adventure holiday in Croatia was perfect for us and our teenagers. Marija our main tour guide was outstanding, such a lovely lady and so much fun too. The activities were amazing, especially the canyoning and the zip lining. Thank you so much for recommending this option it was simply magic. For other travelers I would recommend having a night or 2 in Split at the end of your stay. It’s a vibrant city and well worth experiencing!
Tracey Smith (Cardiff)

Croatia Family fun
We had a fantastic time in Omis. Such a lovely place on the Croatian coastline, 40min from Split airport. All the guides were brilliant and had a great sense of humour, but were always aware of the safety issues in any of the activities. Barisa our leader really looked after us and nothing was too much trouble. We loved all the activities! This is a great holiday for teenagers- even for our eldest,17, had a great time. Sea kayaking was a lovely exploration, white water rafting thrilling and Ziplining was truly breath taking! Don’t miss the optional boat trip offered locally and Krka National Park, two BIG highlights for the children and parents alike!
Weber Family (Wrexham)

Enjoyed our activity week!
My son and I really enjoyed our activity week in Croatia. Activities were well pitched for teenagers and we especially enjoyed the rafting which was an optional extra. It was a bit of a drive but a good day out. Lapad was a nice suburb of Dubrovnik; not too busy but close enough to give us easy access. All in all, a good active holiday.
Jon Armitage (Warwick)

Over and above
Before the children came along my partner and I had extensively travelled in Slovenia and Croatia. So, it was pleasing to see new parts and to share Croatia with our teenage daughters. We have done many family active holidays over the years and have to say this was up there with the best. Maria was brilliant she kept the pace just right and the activities are not to be missed. Brac Island was a magical second week and matched equally in tempo and fun. If looking to discover Croatia for 14 nights, this 2-week family adventure holiday will be a great choice. It’s definitely for sociable families. Parents and kids mix it up. There is a lot of bonding and good-natured banter. I was pleasantly surprised to see my daughters rarely on their iPads. Dare I say they were having fun without the internet! Thanks to all the guides, especially Eti, Daniel, Russell and Maria who went over and above to make our daughters feel welcome. They have a special gift, to engage the children and get them motivated.
Nancy Drew (Gillingham)

Near perfect holiday!
I would rate this holiday a 4.5 stars (a near perfect mark). Podstrana has everything to offer, much more than expected. We played tennis, booked in for a Spa day, and found some wonderful beach bars. But the real wow factor was the adventure & families we met. Gala meals included wonderful, very good choices of restaurants (adapt to vege needs and my Gluten free son). Full marks there for sure! The balance of relaxation & adrenaline was just right. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys adventure and fun, wants to experience Croatia without too many tourists and yet wants to feel well looked after.
Hanley Family (London)

All activities good fun!
Hi there Russ, so sorry we forgot to hand in our completed feedback form whilst we were there. Answers to your questions: Support & knowledge from UK travel manager, food quality was of a high standard, and the apartments were well appointed. Mario was our guide, we would give him 10 out of 10, he was an excellent guide, supportive, helpful and encouraging. For us as beginners to all the activities he was able to make any fears disappear, with a laugh and a joke. Also we were given a lot of advice on activities that we could do on our time off. Etain also deserves a special mention for the smooth transfers to and from Split airport. All the activities we participated in were good fun, we did not really have a favourite as we enjoyed them all. The ambience of Brac island is like no other. I couldn’t resist at looking at properties for sale here. A real slice of paradise.
Alison Pritchett (Liverpool)

Croatia is so clean
This was a truly magical family activity holiday experience. Croatia is so clean, food amazing and people so kind. As a family we would rate this up there with the best. The white-water rafting was a big hit as was the mountain biking day. Lovely holiday, lovely people! I am sure we will be back to explore more of this gorgeous country.
Rowena Little (Wrexham)

Slovenia next year!
We had a really nice holiday in Croatia. Jelena our guide was lovely and showed us some great local restaurants. My daughter really enjoyed the activities especially the biking as she does a lot back home. The social side was nice. Not forced just easy going. Great for single parents with one child!
We would definitely consider Slovenia next year!
Sally Grove (Headingly)

Everyday got better
The 2 weeks in Croatia we spent with your tour Leaders & other Green World guests have been a wonderful experience. With teenagers it’s always hard to find the right holiday to satisfy parents and the teens. But even though we booked onto an adventure holiday, it felt like we had a relaxing vacation too. Please pass my gratitude to Daniel, Barry, Maria and Sara. Wonderful tireless tour leaders who have more zap than Usain Bolt.
Advice? We heard from the other families, Zipline experience was good fun and we can recommend the boating charter optional tour. I would use the cleaning services, very cheap and useful to keep on top of clean clothes without needing to bring too much in your bags.

Unique and fun!
This is a truly an amazing place to switch off and absorb some incredible landscapes. Barisha has to be the best host ever and looked after us so so well, leading us off for a different adventure each sunny day. We spent time exploring around small villages, towns, nature trails, canyons and rivers. The beaches of Podstrana are gorgeous. We even hit the mountains one day and worshipped the sun gods! We stayed for 10 days (extending the program slightly) and went to a different place each day. Loved Trogir and split is excellent for tourists also. The variety of this week, with beaches and adventure holiday sports really did amaze us all. A real treat and highlight was the gala farewell restaurant serving delicious food. I cannot remember all the names of the specially prepared dishes but we tried something new. We loved it and so did the kids (phew!!) Perhaps one of the unique things about this active holiday is the friendliness of all the guests, locals and guides. We met some lovely people during our stay from all over Europe and UK, its a very special place. Its been a special holiday. Just go for it!
Debbie Potts (Derby)

Gelled really well!
Hi guys, just wanted to say thanks for a great week. We really enjoyed our time on Lapad and exploring the other Elaphite islands. The Dubrovnik city tour was totally worth it and of course the kids loved all the Game of Throne references. Our guides Ivo and Marko were terrific. Extremely professional and attentive. All the kids loved them too which is always makes things easier for parents. We were with 3 other families and we all gelled really well. I guess this type of holiday attracts like minded people. I think paddling to Sipan and the exploring the island by bike was inspired. It felt like a proper day of adventure and exploration. I still have some of the framed flower pressings in my office from the little village we stopped in. It was a really sweet place and moment. Anyway, thanks again to all involved including Elliott in the UK office who put us onto this family Croatia adventure trip in the first place!

Activity holiday on Brac
Most memorable part of our activity holiday on Brac island was paddle boarding and the cycling day tour, although all the activities organised were superb. Our reps, Daniel & Mario were excellent and we couldn’t ask for a better local support throughout our family holiday. We’d like to thank the whole ‘dream team’ for making our stay amazing!
Maureen Cross (Dartford)

On the radar
Thank you for organizing our family holiday to Croatia. It has been on the radar for many years, but we are so glad we have now done it and shared the experience with the kids. Please send our best to Marija, Barisa, Daniel and Eti who looked after us and made our 2 week family holiday in Croatia so enjoyable.
Smart Oswala (Oslo)

Fantastic holiday in Slovenia
Just to let you know we had a fantastic holiday over in Ljubljana, what a beautiful place and lots of amazing new experiences. It was a unique way to see the best of Slovenia. The team were first class such a nice bunch of people. Many thanks for all your help and look forward to taking another trip with GWH soon. With kind regards, Marie-Louise
Marie Louise-Marsh (Mansfield)

Accommodation perfectly located!
We’ve just return with big smiles on our faces, everything worked out better than expected. Our transfers smooth & well connected, the driver was very informative and very helpful. Accommodation perfectly located and staff couldn’t be more attentive. All the activities arranged were wonderful, seeing some amazing scenery and meeting some fabulous characters along the way. The kids were never bored, never a dull day and we all sleep deeply with playful dreams lol. Delighted with all, so thank you ever so much.
Olivia Charles (London)

Loved Croatia!
Safely back from our 2–week activity holiday in Croatia and thanks for all the arrangements Nina. We were really taken with the country, the people and the landscape. If you would like any comments anywhere particular, pls don’t hesitate to ask. Kind regards to Daniel on Brac and Maria in Podstrana
Kostas Michalis (Surrey)

Fabulous holiday
We had a fabulous holiday. Croatia was beautiful, the adventure activities were fun, and the apartment was better than expected. The personal guidance we had from the green world staff was second to none. The food included in the trip was fresh local cuisine and cooked ever so well (the food is much more organic orientated in this country). Having the welcome gala meal was a lovely introduction to the week, its an easy ice breaker all bonding over good food (& wine for parents). Although sometimes the days were strenuous, you could opt out of any activities if you felt they were too beginning to be too much. The staff were so helpful and you really feel you get to see the true sides of Croatia’s personalities, with its friendly people and outstanding scenery. Our family has travelled alot in Europe and this has to be one of the best experiences to date. A great multi adventure for sure! Tips??Hmm well remember to wear lots of sunblock, especially when sea kayaking and taking boat trips. Our family booked Ziplining and the island hop boat day, and would say they were both great value extras to consider. Our family is quite restless, 13 yr boy and 16yr girl, so the more we have planned the better. WIFI was excellent in the rooms, and surprisingly good around the pool.
Charly Hamlet (London)

The open skies
This was a fab family week in Croatia! Our teens loved the guides and the activities, and the parents loved the great climate, the open skies and of course the wine in the evenings! Keep up the good work!
Marie Alexander (Harrogate)

Enjoyable adventure week
The Dubrovnik adventure week was great. We tagged a few days on either side in Dubrovnik so we felt we really got a good feel for the city. Then the week with you guys was more about the islands and nature. Our daughters [13 and 15] were the perfect age for the activities. I think younger kids may struggle with the kayaking and biking. Lapad was very nice and relaxing. There was a beach only 5 mins walk away which we went to as often as we could. Highlights were the day paddling to Sipan and then exploring the island by bike. We also loved ‘Sunj’ beach and SUP boarding around this area. Hats off to Marko and Damir who looked after us.
Carl Dickinson (London)

Great activities, great reps
Stunning location, wonderful crystal clear sea, great activities and great reps! When we booked our 2 week family holiday in Croatia our expectations were high because of all our friends who travelled to Croatia and came back raving about it! But your reps managed to exceed our expectations, especially Russo, Daniel and Mario who went above and beyond to help us with everything. We would consider another active holiday with Green World. So many thanks.
Anne Ridge (Darlington)

Brac was stunning!
Thanks for getting in touch. The Croatia trip was fantastic – couldn’t have been better. Brac was stunning, the sea hypnotic and activities amazing. All the staff/guides we came into contact with were super nice. We’ve enjoyed many family adventure holidays across Europe, but this was so unique, fun and authentic. It’s an incredible experience and one I would recommend to friends and family. Hope I can use your company again in the near future. Do keep in touch with what you’re offering – not just Croatia.
Jeremy Thomas (Taunton)

Kids enjoyed water sports
Yes, all went fine Rachel. Sorry i thought Mary had written our review. A great holiday with memorable activities. Favourite days, maybe canyoning as it felt wild and thrilling, a very unique experience indeed. My wife and kids enjoyed the rafting and optional boat day most, sadly my back had given way and i couldn’t dive…. but was chief photographer for the rest of the trip. We all loved the adventure aqua park and volleyball area, this definitely beat our expectations. All in all, the holiday was exactly what was promised. My kids are still talking about it, so that’s a great sign. Kindest regards, Tom, Mary, Joe, Harry
O 'Neil family (Dublin)

Ticked all the boxes
hello there, just writing to praise the good work of all your guides. The 7 nights we had in Croatia were incredible. Each day was well organised, perfectly timed, and the right balance of fun, relaxation and action. So much was seen, so many areas covered, I don’t think enough pictures on your gallery could still do it justice. Green World are a new company to me but have ticked all the boxes. This itinerary is exactly what it says on the tin, and more. Highlights must be canyoning and the sea kayaking. Oh, and the evening meals are immense! Beers were cheap at the local water holes and I met some lovely people. It’s a nice blend of like-minded travelers, would strongly advise people to try this Croatia family activity holiday.
James Thomas (Hove)

Great skiing slopes!
The stunning scenery and great skiing slopes. Very good ski instruction in private lessons. People very helpful and willing to go beyond what you would expect to assist. Very enjoyable. Slovenians are very welcoming and helpful – English widely spoken. Considering we were booking onto a half term February family ski holiday, we were expecting more crowds on the slopes, but we were pleasantly surprised with the ski resorts we went to. Excellent value for money, but that also resulted in parents’ hangovers. Happy to share any of our pictures, just ask. many thanks, Leonie x
Leonie Thompson (Leeds)

Big smiles!
We have returned with big smiles on our faces. It lived up to the pictures and videos we saw on your website, and now have many of our own. We would consider trying your Slovenia activity program next year! Kindest regards to all our guides and yourself.
Phil Parsons (Huntingdon)

Would book again
I booked this multi active adventure holiday in Croatia for my son, 11, so taking part in all the activities with other children was great. I loved the old cities we visited (especially Split) & the country side around Podstrana is lovely (we took a taxi up to the top of the mountains, recommended for photographers). My only gripe, was that on Thursday, on the only day that we experienced bad weather, it meant we couldn’t do the Boat and island hop optional excursion. It would have been nice to snorkel and swim off the boat. But overall – Excellent holiday concept, activities for all the family to take part in. I would definitely book another 1 next year in another country.
Helen Wilkinson (Lichfield)

Nature all around
We booked this week activity holiday as part of our 2-week vacation in Croatia. It worked really well for us as we have 2 sporty teenage boys; so it’s good to keep them active. Ivo and Marko were super guides and the boys hero worshipped them. Lapad was very nice and a great base. Calm tranquil with lots of nature all around. For our second week we booked something ourselves on the mainland, so it was a nice contrast to your adventure week. Croatia is very pretty and is somewhere we would definitely come back to.
Susie Christiansen (Copenhagen)

Sad to be home
This Croatia activity holiday for families, caught our attention in the Sunday Times last year and we are so glad it did. The Dalmatia region is a dream destination, especially for active holidays. We had blue skies, but it’s fair to say our guides were the ones who shone brightest. Their energies never wavered. The kids just loved them, and we certainly had some sad farewells. We hope to come back to Podtstrana and Brac Island, to share the adventure experience again with extended family. But for the time being we’re going to show off our glorious conquests on Instagram.
Jamie Miller (Newbury)

Thoughtful and caring
This was one of our Top 3 family holidays.Ever since kids got slightly older, we always choose activity holidays to keep them entertained. Once again this proved to be the right formula. Russo and Damir were very thoughtful and caring to our family group. The beauty of the river and Mario’s hosting of the barbeque and river rafting were all highlights. Green World staff were fabulous. Thank you, do keep in touch about Slovenia.
Tharing family (Upton)

Ljubljana was fab!
We were you happy with the accommodation, food and services. It met and bettered our expectations. We would use your agency again.
Jo Fellowes (London)

We loved every second
We can’t choose our favorite activity so I would probably say – all of it! Great activities and great, great laughs! Beautiful coastline, great location for activities! Dan and Mario were fantastic with everyone! Daniel’s English and sense of humor is amazing. Alexi was very good with the kids and great at mixing with the group. Climbing guides were absolutely brilliant! We loved every second of the holiday. We would say to all other families who are having a dilemma between a week in the villa and family activity week book this holiday and you won’t regret it! Croatia is superb!
Dave Thomas (West Bridgford)

5 island boat tour
All the adventure days were amazing. Especially the canyoning which I loved from start to finish. White water rafting (which was better than my previous experience and great fun), and sea kayaking were well planned. Relax and just have fun. I felt the trip did benefit the local people – so from a Responsible travel viewpoint, it was a bonus. The teens were in their element and I personally loved the 5 island boat tour day with Tomo. It was a really action packed week which generated a lot of great memories!
Jane Bruce (Worcester)

Fabulous February ski break!
We had a great time thanks! Luka was fantastic – both for lessons and the general rep stuff. ‘No more snow plough’ is the new mantra in our house!! Please thank him and we hope (exams permitting) to be back for more next year. The hotel staffs were all really friendly as well – it was a great place to stay. It was a really well-organised family ski trip! We’ll be in touch again next year
Judith Greenwood (Oxford)

Two week family trip
Just wanted to thank you for arranging our 2 week family holiday (It was our Best European country stop, during our 4 week family tour) Myself and wife have done rafting in other countries and the white water rafting on the Cetina was ideal. Not to extreme but loads of gorgeous nature, perfect for our kids age 13 and 15. The people, the country, the weather was just about as perfect as it can get. The canyoning was also superb and our guides/instructors were excellent. We especially liked Maria & Sara. Great fun and very professional. Definitely one birthday I won’t forget, being with you guys! Thank you Green World Holidays.
Nina Chadstone (Royal Tunbridge Wells)

We adored canyoning
I had meant to contact you before now to say what a great active holiday we had. Thanks so much. It was great meeting Luka and Peve too. And his girlfriend Mirne, brother Amir and and all the great staff involved. All the adventures, especially the canyoning which we adored, white water rafting (which was better than my previous experience and great fun), white water rafting (which was great fun). Tips for others reading this – bring old trainers that can get wet- you will use them a lot, not just on the canyoning. People with no grip shoes found they were not up to the job on the canyoning. You don’t need to buy special shoes and you can also rent canyon boots for £5.00 at the start point. Relax and just have fun. Its great. Split and Rivers were 2 highlights of the trip. The captain on the private boat excursion was wonderful, the balance of doing and relaxation just right. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys family adventure and fun, wants to experience Croatia without too many tourists and yet wants to feel well looked after. Podstrana was a perfect place to be hosted.
Jane Bromley (Nottingham)

Totally unique and wonderful
It’s like nowhere I’ve ever been before. Totally unique and wonderful in every way. The people are friendly, the landscape is breathtaking and the activities were even better than I heard… I have always done package type holidays before but now the kids are teenagers I think activity holidays will be the way forward from now on, especially for a single parent.
Simon Teachwell (Manchester)

Role models for kids!
Thanks for the link to the pictures. A great reminder of a fantastic holiday. Can’t thank Bostjan and Kristian (and Luka) enough for all that they did for us. We felt like VIPs and it was fantastic not to have to think about anything other than standing upright on skis. Bostjan worked very hard to make sure that everything was running as smoothly as possible for us and nothing was too much trouble, from the private ski hire session on our first evening to the moment we were dropped off at the airport. He and Kristian make a great team and Kristian was endlessly patient with the boys – a natural teacher. Luka was also great – a “top lad” in Daniel’s words – and both boys made tremendous progress during their three days of lessons. Slovenia was beautiful, the weather was kind, and our room in the hotel was comfortable. (The boys enjoyed using the pool and the sauna with the other lads at the end of the day.) It’s not every holiday where you can say that you were guided and taught by a member of the national ski jumping team, a member of the national mountain biking team, and a freestyle ski champion! All three were fantastic role models for the boys and when it was time to go, it felt like we were leaving friends. I was quite nervous before we left but I always felt in very safe and expert hands. A great winter ski break – thanks for arranging it all.
Sian Hardy (Teddington)

Superb family holiday
We had a superb family holiday in Croatia with you. Many thanks for arranging and tailoring it to meet our needs. I had a few butterflies about doing some of the activities having never been in a raft, kayak, canyon but the team are very slick, polished, organised team of people. They managed to instil the confidence in all of us to happily take part in all the activities. We would definitely try another active holiday style program again.
Raj Mathur (London)

We loved our week
My family and another family spent seven days with Green World in Podstrana. We had a great fun and was nice to meet other like minded families and to have each other for moral support and encouragement. Our guide Russo was a relaxed and supportive tour leader, and gave a lot of extra energy to the weeks schedule. The apartment has as outstanding location, comfortable and peaceful at night and a short walk to the beach front. We loved our week break and then headed to the island of Brac afterwards to spend a few days chilling in the absolutely brilliantly chosen village apartments booked by Green World staff. We all agreed this activity holiday was a perfect mix of sport, good food included and enough downtime for independent family time. We are planning another trip with Green World to South Croatia next summer. Suggestion??? Well there is space for maybe a basketball hoop? This would be great for competitions and more sporty fun.
Charolotte James (Chester)

A lovely experience
Our adventure holiday in Croatia was just the ticket. Dubrovnik was like the photos jaw droppingly beautiful [although be warned it does get busy]. The islands are a complete contrast, totally chilled and very safe and relaxed for families. This was a great holiday and ideal for families with teenagers in tow.
Elaine de Maria (Canterbury)

Very special formula
Hi there Maria, thanks for your phone call. To re-cap on what we discussed, yes the adventure holiday was superb. Our twin boys had an incredible experience. They cheekily asked why we didn’t book the two week adventure in Croatia you do. I’ll remind them of that when they are older and have kids. We loved our time on Brac island. The guides were very friendly and connected to every family with ease. Not over demanding, fun and engaging with the teenagers and just good company. Parents blended well, most evenings it looked like we were in a wine club. I felt very relaxed knowing the kids were all buddied up together and safe. Green World is offering a very special formula and I’m grateful I was recommended by a friend to try you guys. I’m very keen to consider Slovenia or to try Croatia again. Please send my best to all involved. Thanks, Ron, Maree and the twins.
Ron Foster (Shrewsbury)

Lovely family vacation
This was a lovely family active vacation. Moderate activities through gorgeous nature. The kids loved the canyoning & rafting in particular. It was a nice contrast from water to land, again, seeing Croatia from a different perspective & the reason for needing a big memory card in your camera *I recommend the new waterproof cameras, great for this kind of active holiday. Thanks, and yes, I would recommend using your company. 5 stars!
Frank Axum (Reading)

We loved Croatia
We loved Croatia. So unique, so beautiful. The kids loved the activities and the guides were so good with them. Thanks for your help and recommendations and putting us on to this holiday. Maybe Slovenia next year!!!
Kevin Beastly (Shropshire)

Active holiday in Slovenia
We had a great family active holiday in Slovenia, despite the weather initially being quite overcast. All the activities were great and the guides were excellent. The adventure park being the highlight ( because it is so different – climbing wall, trampoline, archery, slack-line, Frisbee golf and downhill air-tubes). Monster roller bikes were quite thrilling with everyone screaming for joy (i hope lol). The adventure park is very safe, and a fun contrast to being in the water! We would highly recommend the holiday to families with kids willing to have a go; the main guide was great with Meg and she never ever thought of not doing any of the activities. Great holiday. We left a review on Trust Pilot aswell.
suddaby family (Liverpool)

Teenagers favourite!
We all had a great holiday thanks and really enjoyed our time away. The activities were fantastic and I would certainly recommend it to others. Many thanks again for arranging the holiday, my teens say it was one of the best holidays so far. Best regards and PS – thanks for the photos on Facebook
Peter Golding (Richmond upon thames )

The scenery was stunning
Thanks for all you help Elliott; our trip to Croatia was amazing. What an incredible country. The scenery was stunning, food amazing, just a shame we couldn’t have stayed longer! Activity holiday was definitely the right choice for me as a single parent, we will start planning though for another visit.
Roger Patel (Warwickshire)

Great half term holiday!
Sorry it took me this long to feedback back to you Maria, it was great! Great group of people and the local Green World reps were amazing. Remember how we spoke about my youngest and her fear of heights, I thought she will be afraid of the lifts? Well, these fears all disappeared as she met Yakka (how do you spell his name?). He was brilliant with kids. Thanks for recommending this family ski holiday, we would’ve spent so much more money in Finland, Norway etc and would never meet your lovely team if it wasn’t for your recommendation. Thanks again!
Helen Gunter (Welwyn)

Activities were brilliant!
We had a great family multi activity holiday in Croatia. Croatia has firmly been ticked off our list. The activities were fantastic, and I would certainly recommend it to others. Many thanks again for arranging the holiday for us. Did you say, you have created a Photo share group? Please send the link access if so! Many thanks again, David
David Golding (Cheshire)

Nature, sports and Tranquility
We were incredibly well looked after right from getting off the plane. Everyone was so willing to please and to make sure our experience was fun, enjoyable, safe and definitely exciting ! All the instructors were so helpful, making sure we were safe ( without making it obvious! ) and ensuring we were working within our capabilities. Russo was particularly helpful and fun. All the Green World staff were always interested in us, what we were doing and how we felt. An excellent family adventure in Croatia. I shall definitely recommend it and may well return to do it all again. The experience was made more fun with the presence of Russo who was leading this trip. Thanks so much x
Leah Finalyson (Derby)

Well organised holiday
My son and i had a wonderful trip in Croatia. All the tours were very well organised and we were very lucky with the weather. All the guides were excellent especially gorgeous ‘Toni’. I would happily recommend Green World Holidays.
Ruth Williams (Chipping Norton)

Great activity week
I am pleased you persuaded me to give Green World activity holiday a go-we all had a great time and would definitely do something similar again!! Thanks for the pictures,I will get Evie and Mark to get some photos/clips on to share,they are better at that than me! best wishes, Alice and richard
Lilly family (Durham)

An experience to remember
We all thought this was the right way to be introduced to Croatia. We enjoyed the sunny open skies all week, the diverse landscapes are dramatic & equally beautiful, and we covered some great territory within our 7 days here. The sheer beauty that is around each corner, is magical! The sleepy coastal villages and the vibrant cities alive and bustling. The nature pristine and the locals lovely. What a combination! Thankyou green world staff & guides!
Scott Dougan (Barnsley)

Friendships forged quickly!
We had a really great week in Podstrana with Green World. It really lived up to my expectations – I wanted an active holiday that we could enjoy as a family, and I knew my boys would want to have some company their own age. It worked really well for them – there was a great mix of kids, and friendships were forged very quickly over outdoor activities, card games, eating together, and hanging out around the swimming pool. I really liked the balance of activities and free time – the activities gave a shape to every day, but there was also plenty of time to swim/relax and recharge. The weather was a bonus – sunny and warm every day! We all had different highlights – mine were tubing and canyoning, swimming at the local beach in Podstrana, wine-tasting in Split, and the company of fellow guests. Maria and Nina were marvellous Tour Leaders – efficient, organised, helpful, and great company – hats off to Nina for entertaining all our kids in the pool while the parents went off wine tasting with Maria to the local vineyard! We are waiting to show Maria round Oxford when she gets back to England for the winter…..
The apartments are great, with spacious rooms and good facilities, superb balconies with views of the blue sea. I liked the food included, especially the farewell meal at the local tavern. The activities were really well organised, and I could see that great attention was paid to safety. My one comment on the canyoning, which was probably the most physically challenging activity we did – could the guides take a snack in their waterproof canisters? a few of us could have done with something to keep us going half way through the trip! We would definitely go with Green World again – I have my eye on a trip to Greece at some point in the next couple of years. Jane Parker
Jane Irving (Hertfordshire)

Wonderful time, thankyou
A fabulous Croatian family adventure holiday in Dubrovnik. Exploring beautiful parts of the mainland and islands. Great people, spectacular scenery, and wonderful food – what more could we want as a family! The staff did a great job organizing, teaching and guiding. Fun was the call of each day, and the guides silly sense of humour was fantastic, and they seemed to really understand how to get the best out of the kids, offering the right amount of support throughout. This is a must-do holiday for families interested in Croatia, nature and social holidays.
Karen Morley (Farnham)

Very little travelling
The welcome meal was a very unique experience. It enabled the families to gel very quickly, which was a very good start to this Croatia family activity holiday. There was very little travelling. Beaches, restaurants, shops, office were all within 3 minutes walk. There was a washing machine on-site, so we didn’t need to pack as much as we did (I would add the information to your website). Overall this was an amazing holiday, which exceeded our expectations. Daniel (our tour leader) had the teenagers hanging off his every word. He gave just the right amount of motivation and persuasion. The activities were a lot of fun and plenty of downtime, so parents really felt relaxed. Although an adventure holiday in Croatia was what we wanted, we still appreciated the balance of action and relaxation. The village we stayed in was perfect. We gave our two boys complete freedom and we were not worried. They were always with friends, but the village is very safe. The accommodation is exactly how its described: practical, clean, well kept and comfortable. Its a great base that suited our needs very much.
Sarah Hiron (Brackley)

Ideal for families!
I would like to say a big thank you to all the GWH team in the UK and Croatia. The whole trip was great. It’s a great country and we were well looked after for the entire stay. The activities were ideal for families with teens it was a brilliant experience. I have already recommended you to lots of people and look forward to future travels with you.
Steve Persaud (Bicester)

Balance is just right
We did lots of fun activities and were shown many beautiful places. The location of the hotel is spot on, very safe and Ljubljana is a fairy-tale looking kind of place. We have done adventure holidays before finding your agency. We would say, that the balance between activity and relaxation time is just right. Our teenagers said they liked the blend of land and water activities, and my youngest Jenny didn’t feel left out (being the smallest). Having other families, with similar aged teenagers was a great help. So i would ask, about age matching where possible.
Clifford family (Kent)

Friendly, patient and kind
Our Omis adventure holiday was superb. Loved all the activities and our guides in Croatia were really friendly, patient and kind. I’ll definitely be looking at Green World holidays in future, thanks so much for all you help in arranging the trip for our family.
Joanna Cauchi (Totnes)

Many magic memories!
Just wanted to say thanks for organizing an amazing active holiday in Croatia! We had an excellent time, so many magic memories; we can’t wait to go back but next time for longer! Our guides spoke great English, full of fun knowledge and kept us very entertained, from great stories to awesome activities.
Kayi Mcbride (Haywards Heath)

3rd holiday with Green
This is our 3rd holiday with Green world holiday and as usual we enjoyed our holiday a lot. It was perfect for me and the kids as we had not skied or snowboard before. David who was the snowboard instructor was just brilliant. He was very patient with our teenagers and made their experience very enjoyable. David was also driving us to different ski resorts every day and is very knowledgeable about Slovenia. He really went out of his way to look after us. Even on New Year’s eve he dropped us to our restaurant at 8:30 pm. Can’t praise him enough! Monica who was my ski instructor was amazing too. She was patient but always pushed me to the next stage. I had never ever put skis on in my life and didn’t think I could ever ski but now I can! My husband too was very thankful to the skiing lessons he had as he had not been skiing for 20 years. The hotel was good as well. The breakfast and dinners had lots of variety. The rooms and beds were very comfortable, and the staff were very friendly. The swimming pool and the spa facilities are not in the hotel but a short walk away. However, you can get in the pool for free if you are staying at the hotel. All in all this was a fantastic holiday and would recommend it. Slovenia is a beautiful country. Will look into the summer activity holiday!
Vaishali Avery (Camberley)

Croatia is beautiful
We had a lovely 2 week holiday. Croatia is very beautiful, and we got on well with the other families during both weeks. The staff/guides were so nice and helpful. We enjoyed the holiday and would consider a sailing trip in Croatia another time. By the way most guests including myself appreciated the thorough and pleasant service provided by you. Best Wishes, Bettina
Bettina Hente (St.Helens )

Constant fun
Our most memorable part of Podstrana was meeting some fabulous new families and our kids making many new friends. Everyday was constant fun and we laughed a lot. It’s a very social place, so relax and go with it. Get kids to mix too as they have a lot of fun away from the parents. We were glad to see that your company employs local guides and used the areas resources respectfully. Overall, we rate the holiday as ‘excellent’.
Adele Kilby (Windsor)

Didn’t want to leave
There were so many memorable parts to this family activity holiday in Croatia it’s hard to choose my favourite bit. However mini rafting and white water rafting were so much fun probably they were my favourite activities, but the best thing for us was when our teenage daughter, an only child, said it was the best holiday ever and she didn’t want to leave your adventure base. The activities are challenging but not too extreme. I was a bit worried they would be too much for me, but they were all totally doable for the wide cross section of families & ages there, so don’t worry too much about that (if a worrying mum like me!). How would i rate this holiday overall? Excellent, i felt alive and invigorated plus we met so many lovely people, fellow guests and fun Green World reps alike! Simply the best.
Caryn Noad (Sudbury)

Lovely country
We are writing this to say how much we enjoyed our stay with you. You were very good to us, helping myself and boys to have a wonderful time. Special thanks to Nevin who worked very hard to help us enjoy ourselves. I just wished i had realised sooner into the activity holiday his name was Nevin…Not Mevin!!! I feel like totally Rodney! Excellent transfer service and very good lodgings, in the heart of the capital. Slovenia is a lovely country, unspoilt by commercialization. The local people were unfailingly kind and helpful. The scenery was breathtaking. We would not hesitate to recommend your adventure holiday in Slovenia and i’m very keen to try your Croatia trips. Thanks, Phil, Frankie and Arthur.
Gordon family (Cheswick)

Thanks to all involved
I’ve heard great things about Croatia and certainly wasn’t disappointed. The scenery is stunning & the local ‘guides’ were unbelieveable. I was very pleased with the accommodation standard, very clean and spacious. Thanks to all involved and Russell in the office, his knowledge of Croatia is very impressive, and he helped co-ordinate a few intricate requests.
Sophie Laite (Reading)

Ski lessons spot on
We had a fantastic ski safari holiday in Slovenia. We loved going to the different resorts and the ski biking and tubing on the last day was great fun. The guides were brilliant, Yakka’s ski lessons were spot on, simple, calm instructions and we were in the red slopes by day 2. Davvid is funny and engaging. The hotel was lovely. Our 17 year old loved the gym in the evenings, along with his 15 year old sister they loved the WiFi in the hotel and swimming at the pool a few minutes walk away. Seeing the beautiful old town of Ljubljana and the meal on the last night was a great way to end the week. My non skiing husband also loved it. He enjoyed the resorts, with the walks and bars. A brilliant family holiday. Thanks so much

We loved Croatia
Just wanted to let you know that we had a great holiday thank you very much. We liked the accommodation in both locations, and we loved the activities – Ivo and Daniel were particularly nice and very helpful guides. FYI – The scuba diving next door at the waterman resort worked well as well.
Week 2 in Podstrana was lots of fun and kids loved the activities. The farewell meal was in a lovely setting and was actually quite emotional. So. thank you to all involved; we loved Croatia – would like to go back!
Juliette Cattell (Windsor)

Fantastic family fun!
Back home safely. Had a fantastic family holiday in Croatia – met some lovely people and the activities were just brilliant! Reps were good fun with the kids. Will definitely use Green World again and recommend you to other people! Best Wishes, Fran
Fran Smith (Bickley)

Canyoning is the best!
I was very pleased with how friendly and helpful everybody was – the tour leader reps (exceptional) and the drivers lovely too. We enjoyed canyoning tour, it was one of the best activities we did as a family! I would recommend this family active holiday in Croatia to my friends with teenager children.
Theresa Hubbard (Burges Hill)

Loved Dubrovnik city tour
We booked this activity week as part of a longer vacation in Croatia and it worked really well. Boris and Nina were great hosts and showed us some great spots we certainly wouldn’t have found without them. Our boys loved all the activities and my wife and I loved Dubrovnik tour. I had a great moment chilling on the boat roof chatting to Boris about films. Definitely kindred spirits in that department. Thanks again, Green World!
Samuel Tarrant (Los Angeles)

The balance is perfect!
I always try my best to describe places and to help improve them, but this is a tough one. The balance there is perfect. The right flow of activities and relaxation. The guides can’t do enough for you. Climbing was the most fun and we just loved to relax on the beaches. The water is heavenly surrounding the island. We read on the plane, it was the cleanest sea water in Europe. Having sampled it, we would agree. We definitely felt the active holiday in Croatia benefited the local community. All the staff were locals and went above and beyond to make our stay brilliant. Activities were made to be fun and challenging (safety was always at the forefront). Thanks to Etty and her wonderful olive tasting session. We would do this whole vacation again in a heartbeat.
Ted Sestak (New York )

Thank you for organising
We are not very organised when it comes to holidays, so we really appreciated Maria sorting this fortnight in Croatia out for us. Our first week was more focused on action for the kids. We all loved the white water rafting and the zip wire over the Cetina canyon was spectacular. Week 2 over on Brac island was lovely especially for the adults. We loved the shepherd’s village experience and our olive oil tasting was fascinating. Brac was very pretty and still fun for the kids but we managed to get a bit more chill time here; so hence this was probably my favourite part. Thank you again to Maria who was so helpful putting the trip together and of course Eti, Mario, Nina and Lucie who all were so much fun & professional.
Susie Davies (Brussels)

Excellent week
Thank you for an excellent week – it has been very enjoyable for my children – connecting with other children and for me as an adult. Vida & guides did look after us very well, thank you! The activities have been enjoyed by all and were well led and equipped. The big bike down hill rollers and the kayaking day were outstanding. I would say to other families, that it is well worth taking the kids to Atlantis waterpark. Perfect for mums and dads to relax in the massage tubs, whilst the teenagers enjoyed the water slides. Yes..We would consider another Slovenia activity holiday, but feel we did see a lot with your company, so more considering Croatia as our next family adventure. Hope this answers your questions, Mark
Mark Staller (Bristol)

Helpful and dedicated guides
Our guides were excellent. Tomo and Nera were our main guides. Both were very helpful and were very dedicated – they thought that their job was to ensure that we had a good holiday, and acted accordingly, which was just great. I can’t speak highly enough of them. If we wanted to do something, they would do whatever they could to make it happen. Our group was made up of an Aussie family and two other families with teenagers. The small town we stayed in was really nice and the whole program was really well set up for this kind of active family holiday.
Donna McGinley (Dublin)

Game of Thrones
My daughter and I really enjoyed this week. We also booked a few pre nights in Dubrovnik which was totally worth it. We did some Game of thrones tours off our own back which were cool. The week with Ivo, Theo and Ivana was lovely. Good balance of activities and relax time. The food was also great. Not the largest choice for vegetarians but if you eat fish you are totally fine. Thanks guys!
Sam Ashton (Ombersely)

Skiing was terrific
Just wanted to send our thanks to Jaka and Bostjan for looking after our family. This was the first time we had tried a group holiday and the boys loved it! The social aspect especially on the evenings works really well. The skiing was terrific and there was no pressure; everyone could ski at their own pace and ability. We will certainly recommend you to our friends and other families with teenage kids!
Maree Alexander (Bromsgrove)

Brilliant holiday
We had a brilliant holiday. The first week in Podstrana was quite the experience, with such wonderful families. We loved our apartment/balcony, breakfasts were calm and relaxing watching the Adriatic Sea (I’m already missing this family serenity at home). Our favourite activity turned out to be the optional ‘Boat charter and island hopping’. All the families booked it, and we had an incredible day cruising, drinking, eating, snorkelling, diving, partying! Maria, Barisa and Nina were lovely. Please send our very best wishes to all of them! Our second week on Brac was great too. Daniel, Eti, Ivo and Mario were again a credit to your company. We loved the Croatia food, vibe and nature. Everyone without exception was friendly. We would recommend it to anyone.
Jane Royd (Southport)

Appreciate the effort
Fantastic holiday in Podstrana! Completely different from what we expected – in many good ways. The personal touches and effort that clearly goes into catering for every single person wishes is outstanding. We appreciate the effort that went into satisfying our fussy eater (even he did eat chocolate pancakes, pizza & chicken & chips everyday – at least he ate!) All in all a great active holiday package for families like ours. Thank you so much!
Sarah Smith (Macclesfield)

Sunsets and dolphins
I will never forget seeing the dolphins on our second day of kayaking. We were all mesmerised and enthralled. This was such a great holiday. Enough action to keep the teens happy and enough free time to actually relax. The sunsets were heavenly. I wish I was there today!
Denise Lighthorn (Totnes)

Keen to go back
Firstly, we had a brilliant 2 week active holiday in Croatia – it was great, in particular the adventure activities – they were so well run, and team on both sides our guides Daniel, Maria and the team were brilliant and charming. So, thank you Green World Holidays! We are keen to go back – I remember you mentioned Slovenia – I would definitely consider it next summer!
Vicki Harris (Bristol)

Felt happy and safe
Maria was very accommodating and understanding guide. She listened extremely well to our needs and did her utmost to ensure we felt happy and safe throughout the whole holiday. It was an extremely relaxing, enjoyable and exciting Croatia family adventure holiday for us all. For mum – children kept entertained/happy all the time. For dad – exciting activities & great food & beer prices lol. For children – other likeminded children, an understanding host & guide and fantastic support staff throughout ie. Guides + drivers. Suggestion – it would be beneficial to suggest some insurance companies to go with or include insurance. You have done a very clever job in building up the skills throughout the week, ensuring that we had some of the skills of ‘reading’ the river by the time we were floating down it! Bye for now, Theresa & David
Theresa Morgan (Leicester)

Recommend to other travellers
We would recommend to other travellers who are considering this holiday to go out of your comfort zone and book this activity holiday in Croatia without hesitation! You will be in great hands. Bring snacks for after the activities and drink plenty of water, that’s all you need to remember. We didn’t really learn drivers names, however, they were excellent. Daniel, Nina and the whole team were brilliant. Not afraid to tackle the complex issues and still be very friendly. Nina is definitely the organizer and the straight-talking leader. Russo is fun, silly and brilliant with the teenagers. Great team. Thank you!
Sally Atkins (Dumfries)

Great for water sports
Simply put this holiday was heaven. You managed to keep our boys [including my husband] entertained as well as showing us some exquisite parts of Croatia. We all agreed Brac island was something special. Laid back vibe and great for water sports for the kids. A winning formula. On our boat tour we saw dolphins which was so magical. Thanks Daniel, Mario and Lucie; you are all lovely human beings!
Lyndus Jones (Langland)

Slovenian team were great
I just thought I would let you know how much we enjoyed the Slovenia week. We returned on Saturday having had a fantastic week. Firstly the other families were fab – the kids were similar ages and got on so well and being a bit older the activities and evening fun were really good. The Parents were great fun too and I especially got on well with Dee Ross. I also wanted to say how great the Slovenian Team were – our main contact was Ben & Zan, who were so professional, we were really impressed. Activities ran like clockwork. The country was beautiful, even more than we were expecting. Overall, a great Slovenia family activity holiday was had.
Linda Church (Reading)

Beautiful Adriatic Sea
We had a really memorable time in Omis. Hotel was brilliant, right next to the beautiful Adriatic Sea and beach. We were looked after very well by Barisa and Nera, they were both absolutely fantastic and really made the holiday special. Barisa was brilliant fun on the activities and NEra was excellent on the sea kayak tour! Thanks to you both.
Tina Baxter (Basingtstoke)

Social fun and relaxing
This was a great trip, me and my boy enjoyed every day. Social fun but also relaxing. Dubrovnik is stunning but busy and expensive. Lapad was a nice contrast; much more relaxed and affordable. Importantly the teenagers all mixed and socialised really well and our guide Theo was very kind and attentive.
Sally Graham (Leeds)

What a beautiful country!
We thoroughly enjoyed the Slovenia ski safari. What a beautiful country; so pretty and everywhere so easy to get too. Our kids loved the social side of things – the highlights being the ski bikes, the night-skiing and of course the various sorties to the Atlantis Water Park in the evenings. A special program and extremely well managed by Jaka, Mojca and Bostjan. We felt very well looked after nothing was too much trouble. Thank you.
Sam Smith (Leamington spa )

Disconnect and relax
I booked a 2-week trip combining Mainland Croatia and the island of Brac. From start to finish it was a seamless family activity holiday with no hiccups. Green World provided a wonderful travel service, very informative at all stages and well organised local Croatian staff. Our Tour Leaders on both weeks were excellent, very good fun (especially with my daughters, who can be tricky monkeys!) and informative of all the A–Z questions we threw at them. The day activities, boat charter and island excursion being the best, followed by white water rafting tour and sea kayaking was not to be missed. I highly recommend Split and Brac to any family reading this… it’s the right place to disconnect and totally relax, whilst meeting other nice families.
Steffan Lever (Warwick)

Had a wonderful time
Best activity was white water rafting. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Baris and Maria were our favourite guides – good fun and led the group well. Overall we had a wonderful time, a nice balance of the activities and rest for mum and dad. The mix of ages of kids worked really well. We would highly recommend this Croatia adventure holiday to our friends! Tips for the apartments – add more hanging hooks in the rooms, and maybe more clothes dryers for outside. Swimming pool towels would have been appreciated. But the best compliment we can give, is that we will be booking Brac adventure base for next summer.
Mairead Mulligan (Belfast)

Awesome guides!
Activities and guides were AWESOME! Attentive, patient and very supportive with the children. Most of all fun & incredibly patient! Activities well designed for families with teenage children. Nothing was too much trouble, for example organising a birthday cake and surprise party for our son. We hadn’t even mentioned it; it was very touching!
Milton Family (Somerset)

Thoroughly enjoyed it!
I thoroughly enjoyed the Croatia family activity holiday. Great find! The nearby beaches of Omis are lovely, the local people very warm and friendly to British guests and the Croatian staff we came into contact with were very helpful. The trip itself was great fun. Everyday was exciting and very well organised. I’m glad we included the Krka National Park tour, as the waterfalls are spectacular. Our canyoning instructors were full of beans, clapping and fist pumping every time we jumped into the pools of waters. I think my eldest daughter fell not only for the canyons but for the handsome instructors. Their energy for the guests is relentless and very much appreciated. The time away in Croatia couldn’t be faulted, thanks to all the green world holiday staff that made it possible.
Katy Bainger (Bristol)

Single parent friendly holiday!
I enjoyed this single parent friendly holiday. Lovely mix of parents, kids and of course cool guides to keep it all moving. It wasn’t extreme; I think my boys probably wanted more splash action but overall it was a nice trip. Lapad was chilled and you soon felt like you were away from it all back home.
John Richardson (York)

Fun and laughter!
Taking teens on holiday is a challenge, in terms of balancing between what you want to do and what they don’t want to….and satisfying the quest for strong WIFI. I want my holidays with my children to still be family time but yes, parents are so uncool for teenagers. Green World holidays offers the perfect compromise. This ski safari was simply amazing. The daytime filled with fun and laughter. The night time we would come together to eat, and every meal felt like a feast and a party occasion. We loved our time in Slovenia and will be back for your summer trip. If unsure or never heard of Green World, you must call them. They are amazing!
Andy Hathers (Solihull)

Awesome family activity holiday
I flew to Dubrovnik on an EasyJet flight and was met in the arrival’s hall by your guide and a number of fellow travellers. The journey took around 30 minutes and it gave us chance to chat and get to know each other. Our hotel was really nice and a stone’s throw from the main beach in Lapad, which was great because we could walk to all the local shops and restaurants in the evening.
We have already made friends with the Carrie family on your Facebook, a really nice bunch from the Midlands, and made the family Croatia adventure even better! I think it’s fair to say you are nearly always going to meet nice people on this sort of relaxed vibe family activity holiday. Thought the trip was professionally run and enjoyed the pace of the week, would definitely go again. Thanks to Russo and please do keep in touch. We shall wait for your pictures to be uploaded to facebook – thxxx
Sian Holt (Nottingham)

A fab vacation
Thanks for organising our 2-week family vacation in Croatia. We thought Croatia was stunning. Amazing combination of history, beautiful nature and of course fun activities to keep the kids happy. Thank you to Ivona and Mario for looking after us and really showing us so much. We got a lot from it in many ways it was in summary a fab vacation!
John Sestak (Austin, USA)

Beautiful country and people
What can I say – totally brilliant! Kids had an absolute blast. Hotel was superb – meals were brilliant (even for a fussy eater ), family run business and all of them couldn’t do enough for you. Our activities team – just outstanding. They put every one at ease and were very reassuring. They came to hotel just about most nights and played games with the kids. Slovenia total jewel in the Crown – beautiful country and people. We as a family have made fantastic memories and friends. Will definitely be back. Absolutely brilliant holiday.
Hayley Openshaw (Country durham)

Croatia is a winner!
What a great introduction to Croatia. Green world holidays were great hosts from start to finish, thinking of everything to make sure this family orientated activity holiday was smoothly run. There’s no doubt Croatia is one of the most underrated countries in Europe right now! But it won’t be for long, as both my teenage sons were telling me that Star Wars and Games of Thrones is filmed here! The other families booked on were just fantastic and made this teenage activity holiday abroad that much more magical for my boys. By day 2 my two lads already made some great new friends, which takes a big burden off the parents backs. Your local hosts were very friendly and the instructors we encountered were full of energy and local wisdom. Would I do it again? Yes! Croatia is incredible, great value, an absolute winner for us. Mum & Dad have the cool status in the house hold at the moment – which other parents will appreciate, is a real rarity! If you need to know anything else Maria please ask. We hope to meet you next summer.
Colin Marshall (Leatherhead)

Great activities for teenagers
Just back from our 7-day Croatian family adventure holiday and it was just great! From our fantastic guide Ivona who organized everything and helped us with other requests to the people instructing the activities, the accommodation, food and even the weather. A well planned and appropriate set of activities for teenagers and even a slightly scared Dad like myself.
Ryan Phillips (High Wycombe)

My kids loved it
Ski lifts seemed fast and modern and only really seemed particularly busy in the mornings. Ljubljana is a great city and the perfect base for this kind of ski touring holiday, going to various different ski resorts. It perfectly marriages great skiing and meeting other like minded families. If time is limited, this slovenia ski holiday is just the ticket and super value for money. 7 nights well spent, my kids loved it.
Chris Gately (Swansea)

Fabulous activity holiday
Hi Maria, first of all thank you very much for ensuring that Freya and I had such a fabulous activity holiday in Croatia and of course thanks again for my lovely birthday presents. The champagne wasn’t on my bill, so thank you again for this nice surprise! Thanks, Jackie Wood
Jackie Wood (London)

You feel welcome
Canyoning – a great last day to the holiday but all the activities were excellent. Accommodation was very good and the staff really made you feel welcome. Maria was brilliant tour leader and made it an amazing experience. Only request would be better suggestion on the travel insurance.
Ian Ferguson (Leicester)

Fantastic fun!
The activities were fantastic and the scenery amazing. All the staff and guides were local and they were all incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The activities were well pitched; just right for us and the kids! Dubrovnik is stunning too and this trip was ideal for our teens (aged 13, 16 & 17). We could do as much or as little as we liked with no pressure. Everything was well organized by Green World holidays and safety always came first. Please pass our thoughts to your Croatian staff. Ivona, Antonija and Lena were Fab.
Gelman Family (Ross on Wye)

Best trip ever!
Because I don’t like to be disappointed, I tend to downplay my expectations before I embark upon a holiday. For this one, though, my expectations were extremely high, therefore I was very vulnerable to be disappointed when the experience would likely fall short. I never expected that this Croatia activity holiday would exceed any pre-conceived notions I might have had in advance. I can’t say it was the best holiday I’ve ever taken because I’m fairly well travelled and I’ve had many fantastic experiences. However, I think I could say comfortably that this was one of the best trips I’ve ever taken and one of the happiest weeks of my life. The setting, Podstrana, was beautiful, of course. I appreciated the convenience of having a store and an ATM so close to the apartment. I was impressed and grateful for the priority the staff placed on safety at all times. The adventure company representatives were amazing. They were enthusiastic without being artificial and it was clear that they really did enjoy their jobs. They were helpful and kind. The individuals who supervised the activities were incredibly experienced and knowledgeable therefore I always felt comfortable putting my life—and the life of my child–in their hands. The activities were great fun and they were challenging without being too punishing to an old fart like me. Even though we’re both reasonably fit, neither Christian nor I have done many of the things before and it would have been too much if the activities were especially challenging or aggressive. I think the company hit the balance just about right, though I admit that I was feeling pain for a couple of days after the canyoning. Christian, being a teenager, played down his enthusiasm, but I can say confidently that he had one of the best times of his life. His excitement was apparent on the candid photos taken of him while we were white water rafting. This experience—his first in Europe, along with the few days we spent in London, will be with Christian for the rest of his life and it will become the fabric of the adult he will become. Feel free to use or paraphrase anything I’ve said here. Thanks. Sand
Sandy Tarant (USA)

Guides looked after everything
Nothing would have increased our enjoyment more. The baffling procedure of transfers and ferries was not a problem at all as your guides looked after everything. Nothing seemed a problem for your local staff. I will definitely plan to do another Green World family adventure and would be up for returning to Croatia for sure!
Ted Riley (Manchester)

Wonderful holiday on Brac
We have all had a wonderful family holiday on Brac and would recommend it to others. It was great to meet other families and enjoy activities with them, especially for our only daughter who met great friends. Daniel our leader was fantastic guide and support through out! We all loved cycling and climbing although these were two activities that we feared the most. Don’t be afraid to try new things, trust locals. Our daughter said that this was the best holiday ever. Every single staff member was fantastic. Thank you!
Mia Ferry (Sale)

Rafting was our favourite!
My favourite activity during our two week family holiday in Croatia was white water rafting. This was great fun and our guide ‘Mario‘ was incredible looking after us and soaking us at the same time. The water was crystal clear and so clean you could drink straight from it. I’ve heard mixed reports from friends about White water rafting. Some of my friends have told horror stories of whirlpools and grade 5 drops into a white abyss and other friends have told quite contrasting stories, about mild waters & a disappointing time. Well, I’m glad to report, that the Cetina river offers the perfect balance, ideal for families. The rapids are grade 3, so challenging and exciting (but not life threatening). The experience was nothing but positive and we screamed and shouted the whole way down. At the end, hugs & hi-fives! We loved the whole experience!
Katy Griffin (Brighton)

We were impressed
Accommodation, activities, tour leaders and overall experience i graded as excellent. Zaggi our guide was a favourite amongst our family and we were impressed with Maria who helped us choose this Slovenia family adventure holiday. Everything was excellent, accept the A/C was quite noisey. We did notify the property and hopefully the problem will be fixed for next weeks groups. Kindest regards, HW.
Howard Wallis (Toronto)

Excellent family adventure program
A superb mixture of adventure, culture and relaxation was had on this family holiday. It was linked together very well, with good pre and post support information from Maria our Travel manager and incredible Croatia guides. Especially Peter and Barisa. Our 4 star graded hotel plaza was perfect, with excellent sea side position. We so much enjoyed ourselves here, we would consider coming back next year. Croatian people are friendly and excellent hosts. We were made to feel to welcome. For active families, Omis and Dalmatia region is a destination that suits everyone that has callings for nature and sports. We saw plenty of incredible scenery and wildlife. My daughter who is 14 yrs old, loved it too! Lots to keep her entertained in the downtime and other teenagers and kids around, so mix it up. We can strongly recommend Green World and this family program if other families are investigating for summer plans
Owen Ines (London)

Kids loved it!!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our adventure holiday in Croatia. The activities were a lot of fun and Lapad is a lovely base. Ivona was super making every day fun; for both myself and the kids. We all loved it and we all found it a nice balance of adventure, fun and relaxation.
Rowland Family (Moseley)

Great value for money
The family skiing safari was very well organised, and the hotel was first class. The Slovene people are friendly and Ljubljana feels family friendly even though it’s a capital centre. The skiing was very good and my children rally excelled under the instruction of your guides. It is great value for money especially for food and drinks, probably about a quarter of the price in France. All arrangements by Green World went to plan and they did a great job of organising. I’d recommend this trip to others families, just read their TripAdvisor reviews, that’s how we found this holiday.
Bryan Black (Woking)

Fantastic activity holiday
We enjoyed all the activities, but especially the canyoning with amazing waterfall views. On the Brac island, we loved SUP boarding and climbing the most. The river tubing was really enjoyable, challenging but manageable for all. The Green World tour leaders were so enthusiastic, helpful and fun. They all definitely went above and beyond to make sure everyone in the group had a great time. All activities felt safe and health and safety was strictly adhered to. The dynamics of our group worked really well with similar aged teenagers as our children which added to the fun for all. The small towns on the mainland and island were beautiful coastal locations with plenty of beaches close by to explore. During week 1, we did an additional zip wire activity on our free day which was exhilarating and i’m glad our group all decided to book the private boat charter. Seeing our children jumping off the boat into the sea, with huge smiles on their faces, was worth the plane tickets alone. Overall, it was a fantastic Croatia family activity holiday to participate on.
Angelique Crooks (Bristol)

What a location
We had a perfect time thank you, our Tour Leaders were lovely and the other families booked were very friendly. We definitely booked this holiday for our two teenagers (being of a tricky age of 13 and 16), but what was really lovely, was that – i came away from this experience feeling like i had a holiday. I’m sure other parents reading this, will understand what i’m mean. I thought the balance of activities to free time was spot on, and the accommodation was just superb. What a location! The Croatian people are so warm and so is their sunshine, so don’t forget sun cream! Many thanks to Evo, Narni, Marija and all our drivers (especially Ivan the music man!!). If you do have any more pictures of the Boat excursion Tour, i would appreciate any pictures – as we forgot to bring our camera on that excursion. Many thanks, Alli, Phil and the boys x
Alison Hartbury (Durham)

Old towns and islands
Sorry it’s taken me a while to get back to you, been really busy at work since we’ve come back. The active week in Croatia with you was excellent. Our days outs were fantastic, the guides took us to some amazing places and Croatian food and hospitality cannot be faulted. The Quad biking was fun and kayaking was tough for me but the teens loved it. Many thanks for sorting this out for us Nina, we really had a fantastic time, and I would thoroughly recommend Green World Holidays to all my friends.
Raymond Elliss (Glasgow)

Great two weeks
I can understand why so many Green World customers class their Croatia multi active holidays as the best holidays of their lives. It certainly goes down as my favourite holiday. A big thumbs up from a first timer to this family activity holiday style vacation.
Danielle Day (Manchester)

Staff very supportive!
I would like to praise Bostjan who had a fantastic rapport with the youngsters. Also Mojca was also a tireless worker. Bostjan was great with the parents, always very supportive. All the staff did over and above what was expected. Hotel staff, again were all very nice and treated us very well. Restaurant’s chosen for food were amazing – even for the fussy youngsters of the group. I’m struggling to find fault with the experience!?! Thank you for making such wonderful family memories for us. We met some lovely people. HVALA !
Hayley Openshaw (Durham)

Everything went very smoothly
Fantastic holiday thanks, everything went very smoothly. Can’t praise the instructors enough for their levels of customer service. Activities all very good and boys enjoyed them alot esp. canyoning. Guides excellent and equipment and attention to safety of very high standards. Trip to Krka very good. Hotel Plaza in Omis was excellent. Restaurant dinners included were a good choice and local. Visited Brela village and Split couple of times for sightseeing and evening meals. Split is a great place to visit, very easy with public transport and good restaurants. We found Omis to be a relaxing town and great place to wind down. We would like to have explored Croatia coastline more but didn’t have time. Brac Island looks gorgeous, so the Harris Clan is very interested in your adventure base there. We had quite a nice experience on our arrival to Split airport. We bumped into a friendly family outside the airport, who bizarrely had just completed their holiday with you on Brac. They were raving about the experience. Now it looks like we are part of the same choir. Overall a great holiday, and Croatia is well worth a visit, if not two or three. Friendly and low cost once you are there. Thanks for all your help Maria as you and Russo certainly added to the positive experience. Regards, P.
Paul Harris (Altrincham)

Great for single mum!
This was a brilliant holiday for me as a single mum travelling with three teenagers. Our guide Alen was incredible; always available to help and going the extra mile. We loved the rock climbing day and the sea kayaking was also a holiday highlight! Also, we highly recommend you take up on optional White water rafting tour. Thanks again.
Colette Hunte (Brighton)

Ideal family ski break
Hi there, thanks for recommending and arranging our Slovenia ski safari. It was ideal and a great plus being able to stay in Ljubljana and enjoy the nightlife, restaurants etc… Thanks again we will be in touch for the summer plans. My two teenager boys are keen to do a family multi activity holiday with you guys.
Simon Chadwick (Milton Keynes)

Great for teenage children!
We rated this active holiday on TripAdvisor as 5 stars. The water sports activities were so much fun. Always a recipe for a good drenching. It was nice to be alongside our children, but without cramping their style and freedom. This type of vacation is great for teenage children. We liked the feel good factor, that this trip is Eco-minded. The agency employs local people and only uses local restaurants. It also supports local conservation projects, from beach clear ups to planting trees. As parents burdened with the costs of a holiday, we would do this again.
Saleem shamash (Marston Meysey)

Lovely Croatian adventure
It is hard to pick a favourite day, both adventure weeks were excellent. We especially liked the combination of doing river and sea activities. Visiting Omis was a nice touch. I like the fact your active holidays are eco minded, we travelled with minimum impact on the environment and were well educated to the regions visited. The adventure tours were amazing and were complimented by the lovely instructors. Travelling as 2 parents and a solo child, it was great for Toby to hang out with so many kids his own age. He never felt alone. Many thanks for a lovely Croatian family adventure.
Brian Spencer (Oxford)

Action and relaxation!
I just wanted to say from the MILTON’S we had a great time in Croatia all made special with all of the lovely people we met and all your brilliant staff. Perfect balance between action and relaxation, just what we were looking for on our family holiday! Thanks again and we will certainly recommend you to all our friends.
Stuart Milton (Reading)

Excellent guides!
Excellent guides
Hello, just a quick note to say we had a wonderful time on holiday in Croatia and would love to return one day. Borran and Kenco were excellent guides and made our time in Dubrovnik great fun. We would definitely recommend your company to others, Regards, Claire Perry
Claire Perry (Wimborne)

Loved meeting friendly families
Rafting and the constant beautiful countryside was the most memorable and exciting part of our holiday. We loved meeting the lovely friendly families and trying new sports in unspoilt locations. We did feel this holiday benefited to the local people and we could directly see how they supported conservation. I would rate this Croatia family activity holiday as excellent. It’s been simply the best holiday I have ever been on. My tips to other families ‘book Krka Waterfalls for your free day and you won’t regret it!!’
Annie Murray (Hemel Hempstead)

Ideal activity based holiday
Kayaking was the most memorable part of our time in the South of Croatia. Guides on all activities were excellent though! We felt that this multi active holiday also benefited local people and local businesses, we found a lot about Croatia and learned about the nature. Our guides Mijo, Dariona and Beti were supportive and motivational, they made the activities so enjoyable. Transfer drivers exemplary, couldn’t wish for the better team to support our trip. Croatia is a beautiful country and this is an ideal area for water sports etc
Jaqui Duggan (Haywards Heath)

Our teenagers loved it!
We had a cracking time! All was very well organised and the guides were really helpful. We wouldn’t come straight back to do this kind of ski safari, but would consider doing it again in 2 or 3 years time. Our teenagers loved it.
Stephen Rickersy (Hereford)

Already recommended Green World
Thanks again and I have already recommended Green World to several people at home and happy to provide a reference should you ever need it to potential customers for Croatia family activity holidays. On a personal note, we all feel that the service and advice you gave us during the booking process was second to none. Very Best Regard, Jude Aldridge.
Jude Aldridge (Timperley)

Amazing family adventure!
We had a fab holiday, thank you. The family absolutely loved the trip and had the most amazing experience. Everyone was so helpful and friendly and we were very nicely surprised as to how accommodating the restaurants were with the kosher requirements. Thank you again for organising this amazing family holiday for us. Best wishes, Stacey & family

Fantastic family fun!
Tour leaders, apartments & drivers and all other staff during our adventure week in Croatia were fantastic. All activities were fantastic family fun, kids to see parents out of their comfort zone! Guides and reps work so hard to make your holiday fantastic. If you want something different – go for it! Make sure you bring water shoes and trainers.
Hayley Openshaw (Pelton)

Croatians are wonderful
The Croatians are the most wonderful people! Very professional, always felt safe, very kind and very funny and entertaining tour reps. This has been by far the best family holiday we’ve done. Can’t wait to repeat the experience. in Slovenia next year. And thank you so much for finding my blue tooth speaker and posting home. Really appreciated.
Sian Belford (Leicester)

Scenery was breathtaking
To Maria – we all really enjoyed this family Croatia adventure holiday – so thanks. We like the format of doing things which are not too strenuous with other active & fun families. The scenery was breathtaking and one big advantage that Dubrovnik has over the north of Croatia is that the sea is a perfect temperature. Thanks for another great holiday, Ann
Ann Stallard (Chorley)

Children were entertained
We booked the Croatia island adventure holiday to keep the children entertained and off their ipads. It did not disappoint. The organisation from the airport transfers through to the meals was first class. My personal favourite activity was the rock climbing. The tour leaders were so excitable and so quick to joke about. But at the same time, very professional. The activities superbly timed and well thought out. Staff always showed great care to make sure everyone was OK and included. We were the oldest parents in our group but we managed just fine i am pleased to report!
Anthony Selby (Leamington Spa)

Canyoning was our favourite!
Many fond memories have been taken away. We did 1 week on the mainland and 1 week on Brac island. My favourite memories were doing canyoning; which was so much fun. Climbing on Brac island and tubing on the Cetina river. Barisa was comedy gold on the mainland and Daniel on Brac was so caring and fun too.
Una Parkes (Otley)

Recommended for active families!
Overall we have had a lovely time in Croatia, the gala dinner included were a BIG hit with all the families here. Staff are excellent and great choice of hotel. Very central location. Andrea, Benji, Rock, Zaggy, and Guilly were amazing (please excuse my spelling of names). We would for sure recommend this holiday for other active families. Just go for it !!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!!
David Button (Hockley)

Perfect for water sports!
The best thing about all the activities is that they were well designed to build up to canyoning. Our family has done lots of water sports all around but we all agree that Croatia is the best place to do water sports, especially for canyoning! The guides were all professional and proud of their country; they went out of their way to make it an excellent week. Russo was also very helpful during the booking process and it was good to speak to knowledgeable staff before we travelled. All your activity guides were excellent and the activities were fun and well-conducted!
Nicola Mcaleer (London)

Activities were superb
As a single parent I would say this is one of the best holidays I have ever done. Nevan our guide always went the extra mile for us and was so much fun and easy company. As you said before I travelled, this type of holiday brings together like minded travellers and I am still in touch with two from our group. The activities were super; nothing to straining so it was fun and relaxing at the same time and the food was amazing! Like Arnie I will be back!
Luke Chapin (Reading)

Kids made friends
My family and I had never tried the family ski safari holiday concept before, but with limited time this year, this was just the ticket. The skiing was wonderful, resort transfers made simple by our private pickups and equipment was done with a private fitting also. Hotel was perfect, nice staff, clean and comfortable. Ljubljana is a stunning city, very romantic, friendly and very affordable. Highly recommend to others families. We met some wonderful people and the kids made friends very quickly.
Jonny Wilshire (Reading)

Rafting was our favourite
White water rafting was our favorite experience! Marija and Barisa were excellent guides, full of enthusiasm; they made sure all of us had a brilliant holiday. We felt that kids were really looked after and because of them we will definitely consider a return trip. I would recommend all other travellers ‘just go for it’ and trust your guides!
Emily McKee (Newark)

Excellent attention to details!
Attention to details was excellent; all staff including drivers were brilliant. Accommodation and the pool that our children loved was superb. We did similar activity weeks but never as a part of a group and this helped a lot for our kids to bond with other teenagers. We will be recommending this family activity week in Croatia and Green World Holidays to everyone who will listen!
Jane Campbell (Highams Park)

Loved Dubrovnik
Ivan was excellent both in terms of the initial contact and arrangements through to him leading the activities. We liked the combinations of downtime and fun adventures planned. Sipan was my favourite, it felt so quiet and natural. The kids loved Lopud and the sandy beach. The wife loved Dubrovnik! We will recommend Croatia, Island life & Green World Holidays to our friends and colleagues.
Terry Matthews (Stirling)

Really brilliant week
All the activities were fantastic. Sea kayaking was a lovely relaxing day and holiday highlight. We enjoyed the WWR but canyoning was the ultimate highlight. Thanks for a really brilliant week! All the staff at the apartments, the instructors and Green World Holiday staff couldn’t have been more kind, caring, fun and patient. Enjoy the rest of the summer! Kindest rgds – Jan x
Janet Lewis (Banbury)

Fantastic week!
Let me just say that your staff was excellent! This was a fantastic holiday that suits all ages, especially our two elder teenagers. We (parents) loved kayaking, it was such a good laugh, teens enjoyed quad biking. Accommodation was very nice and hosts were friendly
Thank you all for a wonderful week away.
Yasmin Stephenson (Windsor)

Very friendly team
All your staff were so friendly. Attention to the group from your tour leaders was beyond expectations. Excellent! Activities were great fun, and the other families were lovely company throughout. We thought Brac was stunning and ideal for a family with teenagers. Enough going on but still chilled and safe. Thank you all for a great family adventure holiday in Croatia! x
Daniel Shelby (Ipswich)

Outstanding job!
Marko did a brilliant job with the kids. Maria did an outstanding job organizing this Dubrovnik family activity holiday in Croatia for us. Quad biking team were great, very safe and professional. This was a very enjoyable experience from start to finish. I would highly recommend other families to experience island life as well as mainland Croatia. Both have very distinct personalities. Thank you all, I’m sure i’ll speak to Maria again in January! Pam x
Pam Kennett (Teddington)

One of the best holidays
Hi Marija, we have returned back from Croatia and had an excellent experience. The hotel staff were very good and saw to all our meal requirements, we especially enjoyed the tour around Split with Nina who was a very knowledgeable young lady and made the tour interesting even for teenagers. For our kids the highlight was the tubing activity day, whilst parents agreed that sea kayaking around Brela secluded beaches was our best activity! Barisha was our rep and he was fantastic throughout. The activities were well organised and very good fun for our teenagers. I highly recommend this trip. I would use Green World Holidays again and have already recommended you guys to friends and family members. Hope this answers your questions!? thanks again, Ally x
Alice Berry (Burgess Hill)

Definitely recommend you!
I just want to say a big thank you to you and all your team for a wonderful holiday in Dubrovnik and the islands. Russo and her team were so professional and kind. The staff at Hotel Zagreb were amazing to my daughters while I was in hospital. Thankfully I only had a short stay in hospital and was able to go on and enjoy the rest of my holiday. Benko who was with us on the islands was wonderful, he really made our island escape special. The Blaikie family that you matched us with were lovely and we got on very well. Kate really appreciated the celebration of her birthday by the home owners of the Guesthouse on Lopud Island. Also thank you for sending her birthday wishes. Thank you so much for helping us experience Croatia and for your concern during my stay in hospital. We will definitely be recommending you to our friends and family here in Ireland.
Norma Barr (Ireland)

Stunningly beautiful
Idyllic Adriatic Island. Fantastic personalised service from Eti, Daniel, Mario and Sandra who couldn’t have tried harder to ensure we had a great time. Good balance of activities. We enjoyed everything from start to finish. This is our second activity holiday in Croatia, and it didn’t disappoint!
Keith Blaikie (Edinburgh)

A great time again!
Sorry for the late response. We had a great time again with your company. I haven’t seen the photos yet, but I’d be happy to pass on a few if they are any good. A big cheer for Marko who was an absolutely excellent guide on the islands part of the tour. In quick summary: We all had a very good time. Advice: On a previous activity holiday we made packed lunches from the bread ham/cheese etc at the breakfast (which were then packed up for us by the accommodation owners).
Vanessa Chadwick (Cheddington)

Sport and nature
For me it was the perfect combination of sport and nature. Where we stayed was brilliant with easy access to the beach and restaurants. The activities were ideal and we loved the fact the itinerary was so well balanced. We didn’t want to be sitting around so we really appreciated the timing and pace of the week.
Our guides were all really professional but also so kind, easy and fun. For the Shepherds village walk we covered lots of different terrain and had one of the best meals of the holiday in a local restaurant. It was really special. I’d recommend this optional tour to other families; it was magic!
We also did a private boat tour and was really impressed by the captain and crew. I would recommend this holiday for families with kids age ranging from 12-19 years. We have 3 teens 13, 15 and 19 and all 3 of them enjoyed it and the eldest didn’t feel at all out of place…. which is saying something!!
Laurence Stapleton (Surrey)

Croatian sunsets!
Just imagine relaxing on blue flag beaches, by gorgeous clear seas and surrounded by pine covered Forrests. Welcome to Croatia!
On our 2 week active holiday in Croatia we cruised down the Dalmatian coast and explored its pretty and romantic islands. For active families there are many opportunities to hire bikes and sea kayaks. For those seeking serenity, you’ll find your own hidden coves, as your captain finds secluded spots along the islands edges.
As well as island hoping in week 1 we also had 1 week on Brac island which worked really well. There were loads of adventurous activities available but also lots of authentic places to experience; so we all felt like we got a lot from it. I think the open skies and Croatian sunsets will live long in my heart. Thanks Green World for tailoring this for us.
Jan Wilson (Canterbury)

The A Team!
The whole experience was magic and so memorable. As you know we extended our time to Lake Bohinj by adding 4 extra nights there. This was another highlight for us, so thank you for this top tip. We enjoyed the mountain adventure park activity day the most. It was great to try so many activities, from archery to high ropes. Slovenia is full of dramatic views, and i believe this type of activity holiday really helps you see the most important aspects of this perfectly formed (but small) country.
The hotel staff in Ljubljana were helpful in every possible way and rooms were great. But its really about the location of this hotel. Right in the heart of the capital, on the cobblestone streets, down a small alley way. Truly the best positioned hotel in town. All the families loved the easy access to restaurants and night time buzz. It’s a very friendly and safe capital, so we often felt comfortable leaving our teenagers to hang out and they really benefited from that freedom.
The ability to experience this adventure with so many like minded families was a BIG plus to the trip. The group gelled really well and we literally felt like a big family by the end of the week. Steve was hilarious and did a lovely speech at the end of the week. Special thanks to Vida, Jenez and Sasa – they literally were the A Team!!
Sally Williams (Nottingham)

Best destination for families
Excellent holiday, great fun and we couldn’t have chosen a better destination in Europe for our family adventure! Our children mixed well and enjoyed everything that was organized. Omis is a lovely coastal town and our hotel plaza on the beach was brilliant. The beaches we visited were beautiful and not to crowded. I recommend booking a boat trip, which we all thoroughly enjoyed! The local staff did everything possible to make our family active holiday a great experience in Croatia. Thank you!
Ian Waghorn (Marlow)

Croatian landscape
A rewarding adventure experience that brought us in close contact with the Croatian landscape, people, food and of course wine & beer lol. I was pleasantly surprised to see how smoothly a multi adventure week could be organised, the hosts are professional and fun. I definitely felt relaxed throughout, and the evenings with other guests went really well – so from a solo mum perspective its a thumbs up trip. Thanks to all
Amy Reed (Oxford)

Absolutely lovely
I did mean to reply earlier. Yes all perfect thank you. It was a very personal service throughout. In fact Sasa who picked us up from the airport literally stayed with us the whole time and helped if needed. The hotel was lovely and the staff absolutely fab. Ljubljana was superb and would like to actually visit again in summer. We had snowfall from the moment we arrived at the hotel too and 10cm overnight so we were very very lucky. Everything ticked the boxes for us so was a perfect family ski break in Slovenia. Thank you. Kindest regards, Mel Spencer
Mel Spencer (Holland on Sea)

Laughing and smiling!
Definitely most exciting and most hilarious part of our adventure week in Croatia was going the wrong way down the rapids on river tubing! All our guides have been great. Sara has been superb with our kids. Lovely, thoughtful and so helpful. Barisia- so much fun, laughing and smiling all the time and very knowledgeable about the local history, with lots of passion for Croatia etc. Fantastic! Great multi activity week. Well pitched and highly recommendable… thank you all!
Avni Thomas (West Lothian)

Brilliant experience!
We loved all activities but we all agree that canyoning was the best! Our two teenagers have met new friends and we had a great time with other parents from our group. We highly recommend you try ziplining. I was initially very hesitant as afraid of heights but this was a brilliant experience since all the guides were so engaging and supportive! All the Green World Holidays team have been excellent. We will definitely consider booking another family activity week with you. Thank you!, Simon.
Simon Levell (Twickenham)

The magic blue cave
We were looking for an family active holiday in Croatia, combining Montenegro with Dubrovnik and its nearby islands. So when we found Green World, it looked like the perfect combination…. as it turns out, it truly was. Our guide was excellent from start to finish, activities well planned and timed. Our favourite parts were sea kayaking and the blue cave, to trying SUP boards and the sandy beach cove!
Mo Allen (Chagford)

Teens loved the activities
Please share your highlights: Inspiring as Dubrovnik is, it was made even better by having a knowledgeable local guide; Russo was fun and friendly. Our teens loved the activities; particularly quad biking and kayaking. In summary: Its amazing how relaxed we were by the end, given the amount of activities we did during the Dubrovnik family activity holiday.
Felicity Hall (Winchcombe)

7 nights on Brac
We spent 7 nights on Brac island with Green World Holidays and had a wonderful time. There is a great balance of activities with free time for relaxing. You will meet other families and do fun active experiences. We liked our tour leader’s very much and would consider this style of holiday again. It’s definitely a multi adventure week focused for families. Totally worth the flight.
Chelan Sharma (Stratford)

Everyone is enthusiastic
Each activity provided us with challenges that we have been delighted to see the kids fully engage with. Everyone on this holiday has been enthusiastic, passionate about Croatia and very welcoming. Barisa is a wealth of local knowledge; full of great info and super tips where to eat! He is also excellent with all the kids. Maria has shown such a patience with tom and he has really taken a shine to her. She has been an important part of his holiday. Thank you both, before arriving to this trip we had our expectations high but we could never imagine that our family activity holiday in Croatia would be such a memorable family experience! Nicky & Mark
Nicola Burley (Caversham)

Lots of encouragement
Our tour leaders were superb! Mario and Daniel made everything fun but were also totally professional. I had total confidence in their skills and felt very safe. They gave lots of encouragement when people were nervous and introduced us gradually to skills and found fun tasks to build our confidence. I have thoroughly enjoyed my activity week and can not think of anything to criticize. Brac Island is gorgeous. So pretty and unspoiled. Very safe for our kids. It was a lovely holiday. Thank you very much on behalf of the Walters family.
Jo Walters (Taunton)

Terrific family holiday
There is no better way to discover multiple Croatian Islands and many stunning cities, than trying this terrific family holiday. Simply, it’s a must-do if you have teenagers. This 2 week active holiday takes you to some of the most beautiful islands on the Southern Dalmatia coast. Each base is very unique from each other and there will be plenty of time to explore each one at your own pace whilst doing fun activities along the way. We all loved this trip. Of course special praise to Daniel, Eti, Maria, Barisa, Sara and Brett.
Jane Smith (Hagley)

Loved the adventure park
This is not the first time I’ve booked with Green World Holidays – and happy to say we will continue to praise your trips. Again we travelled with our extended family, 12 in total, in August (youngest being 12 years old, and the eldest 19 years).
Initially, we wanted a hotel near the coastline. We did like last year in Brac Island, having the contact with the sea. It’s very hard to keep active teenagers in a happy mood and having the coastline there, always helps. So being land locked, i was more hesitant about booking. But Maria in your offices assured me we’d have fun, and the kids would love it. She was right! It beat our expectations, and was even better than our Croatia adventure experience.
Best way to describe Slovenia, is that its a small country with a big personality. The food was exceptional – authentic Slovenian dishes, with lots of variety, choices for vegetarians and many delicious deserts. Bedrooms very comfortable and exceeded my expectations of a 3 star hotel. Reps and Drivers are responsive and caring.
The weather was perfect, not too humid, sunny with a few random down pours (all adding to the adventure feeling). The countryside is green and alive with colour. Slovenia is a stunning place and the right kind of location for families that want nature, sport and relaxation. Ljubljana is a brilliant destination. Everything is a walk away if you want pubs, food, entertainment or shops. The teenagers loved it! Our main tour rep ‘Bostjan’ was very flexible to everyone’s needs, communicating the program well and often found playing games with our children. True to life, it’s the small touches, that make the big differences.
We certainly enjoyed the mixture of activities throughout the week. The highlight for me and Derek was the river kayaking. Kids loved the adventure park and rafting very much too. I can be a bit of a worrier, but all the instructors gave me self belief and support when needed. We met three other families, so matching the children’s ages was great like on Brac island.
Points for improvement – can you get table tennis or pool table at the hotel? More hooks to dry clothes ?
We would like to thank Bostjan, Vida, Sasa, Janez and everyone that made this family Slovenia active holiday one of our best. Thanks from all of us x
Jane Roddington (Leeds)

Praise you!
Thank you so much for organising such a fun holiday in Omis for us. The whole experience was excellent. Where do I start. Well firstly, the hotel Plaza Omis was lovely. A true 4 star property on the beach, a stones throw to the old town streets. Rooms were spacious, clean and modern. The Green World Tour Leader was 5 stars. If I could give Barisa more I would. All the activity instructors and staff were very helpful. The local knowledge was invaluable. Our first day was river rafting – and much better than we did in Austria last year. We liked the blend of fast and calm parts and places to swim.
The local providers of the trip were very well equipped and the guides were excellent. The river was beautiful, and it was good to be offered a photographic record of the rafting event (the hi-res pictures are worth the 10 euros fee). The next day we did canyoning – this was probably the best activity – we have never done anything similar – challenging but safe, in dramatic scenery, again with very expert local guides who had clearly spent many years exploring the canyon channels.
They were very caring to us, and we enjoyed their hospitality and friendliness. We did opt for the extra KRKA national park tour, which didn’t disappoint. We had a great time swimming near the dramatic waterfalls and walking around the park. Sea kayaking was our favourite day – perfect clear sea, beautiful hidden beaches and lots of stops for rest and snorkelling – again, something we would love to do again. Unfortunately a change in the weather prevented our planned sailing trip around the islands, but the office team more than made up for this by arranging a canoe trip – we spent a lot of time going backwards and around in circles: luckily our young guide was very patient and had a great sense of humor!
We really appreciated the personal care that was offered to us on this trip – of particular note was your staffs willingness to be flexible. We felt extremely safe and well looked after. We also loved the location of Omis – the whole place was like an adventure playground, with endless possibilities, and the accommodation and local restaurants were excellent. I would be very happy to recommend this trip. Best wishes, Sue & Emma Higgie
Sue Neville (London)

Polite and friendly!
I would like to say a big thank you. The Croatia single parent active holiday was just amazing. The staff were very polite and attentive. The activities were great fun and allowed my son and I to really bond in a way we just couldn’t back at home. We thoroughly enjoyed all the activities but if I had to choose my favourites it would be the high ropes and climbing. The hotel was clean, modern and comfortable. All the staff there were friendly and attentive. The food in the hotel and in all the restaurants we went to was fantastic….food was fresh, tasty and generous in portion sizes. I would highly recommend the seafood and fish dishes! All in all, a great trip.
Alison Lee (Bethnal Green)

Ski safari holiday
I have just returned from your family ski safari holiday in Slovenia. Let me start by saying thank you. Airport transfers and ski logistics worked perfectly, and the seamless co-ordination put the whole family at ease. We obviously had confidence from the outset from your strong communication, but still its nice to experience the realization of the holiday itinerary. The winter adventure really does begin as you meet the other families booked on. This is for social able families, who are seeking the company of others.
Austria, Italy & Slovenia are wonderlands for snow action. The night skiing fab, the ski-bikes unmissable, the prices affordable. Check-in to the hotel was flawless and we made good use of the nearby aqua park. The ski safari week is neatly laid out, authentically Slovenian and has been a big hit with my teenagers, who have been quite spoilt with previous skiing holidays. This has been their favourite to date. Overall, the staff were delightful. Snow activities ran like clockwork. Can’t thank you enough, from start to finish you gave us great confidence and delivered an exceptional experience. Super family winter adventure in Slovenia.
Stefanie O'Neil (Southampton)

Fabulous holiday in Croatia
We’ve been to other countries for multi sport vacations, including France & USA but this area was ideal and probably the best so far, especially for my teenagers aged between 12 and 17 and from the beginning all the group (adults and teens) were treated with great hospitality and made the family feel very welcome. Our children, once settled into the apartments [fabulous by the way!!!] were straight out to enjoy the views and swim in the pool.
Staff were superb at both adventure bases. Guides during adventure days, kept everyone occupied with a variety of interesting facts and good banter. Do relay back, that we thought that the sports guides were also terrific. Encouraging when needed and showing patience when someone was a little nervous [often me!].
Highlights were the sea kayaking on Brac island and River tubing on the mainland (hilarious)! The gala meals included in the itinerary are authentic and enjoyable. Croatian, Local, Fantastic. I believe that any family interested in bonding with their teenagers should try this Croatia adventure holiday; it certainly worked for us. Many thanks for a well delivered active ‘family’ holiday! Note: I have put emphasis on the word ‘family’ as we all felt we had got a lot from the trip and actually all had a great holiday.
Dave Jenner (Norwich)

Recommended by my sister!
Recommended by my sister who travelled with you last year. So glad we took her advice. Croatia was fab and your team are a credit to you. From tour leaders through to drivers they were all great fun but also really professional. The activities were all great too. From rafting, canyoning, sea kayaking and tubing our active family holiday pulled together like no other trip we’d previously done. The magic of Croatia is certainly in our household, kindest regards x
Jill Thomas (Winchester)

Chilled and fun!
Chilled and fun; a great combo! The islands part of this week is so relaxing and you just have to let it all go and flow with the Island life. Ivan and Marco are just superb guides and are a credit to Green World Holidays. They just can’t do enough for us. The 2 key activities on this leg were sea kayaking and speed boat /catamaran day. The accommodation in Lopud is basic but clean comfy and with fabulous views – a great way to end our family holiday in Croatia.
Mark Davey (Martlesham Heath)

Perfect place to stay!
Great holiday experience for myself & 17 yr old daughter. There were thrills & spills as promised. Brac island was a perfect place to stay, I liked our modern apartment, guides were excellent and new friends were made very quickly. It’s a social experience and one we loved!
Janet Accor (Clifton)

Loved it!
It was simply a fantastic family holiday. Thank you to all your staff, we certainly fell in love with Croatia, and having all these planned activities really kept us all engaged, smiling and playing as a family! It really did live up to its name – Best 2-week adventure holiday! Thank you Marija, Nina and Ivo for all their energy.
Sarah Miles (Milton Keynes)

An amazing holiday!
An amazing family active holiday in Slovenia catering perfectly for the whole family including our lad of 12 and our daughter of 13 years. Great balance of activities mixing adrenaline, adventure and discovery. Kayaking was huge hit with everyone. The team on the ground were fantastic – special note to Vida who was always so helpful, knowledgeable and calm. Finally Slovenia is stunning – Alpine scenery, lakes, mountains, rivers spotlessly clean and so friendly. Thank you Green World Holidays.
Andrew Carley (Barford)

Lovely memories!
This was a great Croatia activity holiday for families. We all have such brilliant memories from our holiday and recommend it to everyone. Look forward to seeing the videos, thanks again for making the effort to do this. All the best, Lisa x
Lisa Bloomer (Ombersley)

Fun filled times!
We would like to say a massive thank you to the Green World Holidays Team for organising and providing an unforgettable single parent holiday experience. It was absolutely fantastic and the trip was far beyond my expectations! The team put together a great package with many small personal touches which accumulated to an overall exceptional service. Our Croatian guide was knowledgeable, friendly, warm and helpful but yet he was professional. My older teens were particular impressed and would like to pay special thanks to the guide for ensuring specific dietary requirements were provided. It has been an amazing holiday, full of amazing activities and adventures, and this will not be our last Green World Holidays. Thank you!
Katie Taylor (Brighton)

Amazing stay
Ljubljana is a truly stunning location. It’s been a real joy. Everything and more than what’s described. The hotel and ski crew were absolute legends. For the purposes of a family activity holiday in Slovenia, this is a must. The kids loved the aqua park near the hotel, the parents loved the vibrancy of the capital centre. There was no fear of getting bored. Everyday we were being whisked off to another amazing location. All in all, an exquisite few days in central Europe, one that i can see our family repeating in a few years time. We’d even consider your summer trip this year. If other families read this, then i advise you to listen to the experts and let them guide you to an amazing stay
Lorretta Walsh (Plymouth)

Winning formula!
Your family adventure company has found the winning formula, that resulted in my teenagers saying: “It’s the best holiday every!” The highest praise in the land. Many thanks to Alexi, Daniel, Maria and all the guides involved. I’ll be following your Instagram page for next years inspiration. Lois xx
Louis Goldman (Lincoln)

Fantastic holiday!
Fantastic holiday. Activities were amazing. Great company and hospitality at the welcome and departure meals. Maria and Barisha (our reps) could not have done enough to help with any queries & were so good with the kids. even our eldest teen admitted when his guard was down it has been ‘epic’. Many thanks for a super time. Jackie x
Jackie Perry-Smith (Wokingham)

So enjoyable!
Really liked Lapad Beach but an extra night would have been good. Hotel was fine and great location. Really enjoyed the quad biking. The tour of Dubrovnik was excellent with Russo and the cable car and also enjoyed the ferry ride to Sipan island. Really enjoyed the sea kayaking. Cycling was also really enjoyable. Guest house accommodation in Lopud was clean and air con worked well. It was nice to stay in a guest house and loved the island. Enjoyed the day out on the boat- swimming in the sea was great.I had to miss out on the hike as my son was ill but the others enjoyed the view. Really enjoyed spending time with the other families and we all got on extremely well.
Pam Welford (Altrincham)

Single parent success!
This has been my first holiday on my own (as a single parent) in 15 years. It has been amazing experience and I thank you all very much. My two teenagers loved the week. I’m definitely in their good books and I can say this was a big success! Cheers to Daniel, Eti, Ivo, Brett and Lucy!
Darren Blake (Worcester)

Totally recommend this trip!
We (nine adults and four kids) have just come back from a splendid 14-day holiday with your company. I just had to write back and tell you how wonderful your staff are! Our tour leader Barry was fantastic, and deserve all the praise. He greeted us with a big smile at the terminal arrival hall and took us to Trogir, and stayed until we were all unpacked, then showed us to a superb local restaurant. He really went out of his way, to make sure we were happy and orientated. The 3 star hotel was perfect for the first 2 nights, rooms were clean and well appointed. Breakfasts weren’t amazing, but the kids often missed the morning call anyway!
Our following 6 nights were in the small town of Trilj, and can only be described as teen paradise! There were so many other sporty families, that our kids buddied up quickly, and let the parents concentrate on drying as many local wines as possible. The days spent there we joyous! Laughter on every turn! Mini rafting and cycling were favourite days, but i know many of the teenagers and other mums loved the canyoning experience. We were very sad to leave Trilj but delighted to say our next 4 nights on Hvar didn’t disappoint. The boutique hotel was very nicely laid out and all the rooms are a decent size with lots of storage space and quality modern bathrooms. Very nice and very comfortable.
The hotel is close to the beach and has a lovely swimming pool with loungers. We did take the half board option here, but we ate out most evenings. Hvar is a lovely island, and from there we took a day excursion to Brac – which we would definitely consider coming back to stay on. We visited Supetar and Bol as per your suggestions. Bol was a little crowded, but Supetar was gorgeous and the kids made full use of the aqua park and quieter beaches to play games on. We also had a brilliant time doing all the activities that Green World staff had to offer. We managed to fit in white water rafting, canyoning, dingy sailing, SUP boards, coastal hikes, zip wires, and even paragliding.
The only possible downside is that Hvar can get a bit crowded in the old town, but our eldest daughter loved the busy nightlife (making full use of the cheap cocktails on offer). The hotel in Split was great. Nice to finish the trip in a 5-star hotel. The food there was very good but the rooms aren’t nearly as nice as the boutique hotel on Hvar. We had a great two-week adventure holiday and I would certainly recommend it to families with children of all ages [our youngest is 10 years, and our eldest girl is 22). There is so much to do in Croatia and this tour is a great place to start! Hope this has been helpful xxx
Jo Lawson (Chiswick)

Anxious at first
Our family activity holiday in Slovenia was very well organised and Vida and Miha were excellent guides. Very knowledgeable and their English excellent.
As a mum on my own with 2 teenagers I felt completely at ease and thoroughly enjoyed all the activities, even those I was a little anxious about.
The kids are encouraged to mix as a group and were soon a great bunch of friends doing loads together. Seeing them have such a great time with their new mates was lovely. We would very interested in an adventure holiday again next year with you! Maybe Croatia?
Anne Corry (Harrogate)

Great time in Croatia
We had a great time in Croatia. The team really looked after us well and nothing was too much trouble, Russo and Barisa were outstanding. We would definitely recommend Green World Holidays to friends and would certainly look at booking with you again in the future. Hope this feedback helps.
Michelle Matthews (Stockton on Tees)

Terrific local hospitality!
The optional white water rafting in Croatia was a great experience and all of us thoroughly enjoyed it. Mountain biking was great and Theo was a great guide. The local hospitality was brilliant – especially in Lapad! Thank you all for the fantastic advice, experiences, lovely friendly parents met and great guides! I will be telling my friends to try a single parent active holiday in Croatia for families, rather than the typical bucket and spade set package. Best wishes to all!

Cynical teenagers
We had an amazingly wonderful time on our Slovenia ski safari holiday. We managed to cram a lot into a very short time. Even our cynical teenagers were loving every aspect of the trip, from the group dinners to trying new activities. Ljubljana where the hotel is located is so beautiful, romantic and tranquil. It was truly ‘getting away from everything’. Hotel staff, food, and hospitality were fantastic & of course skiing was brill! Thank You, Kate
Kate Moscovici (Hammersmith)

Activities are great fun!
This was the first holiday we had booked to go in a group and were wondering how it would all go and if everyone would get on.We had no need to worry; the teenagers and adults all mixed and we all had a fabulous time. Activities are great fun – kids are in their element and its well paced!
We have travelled to many places around the world to give the kids great experiences and the whole family agreed that this a top holiday.
Sonia Scott (Glasgow)

Kind and friendly!
My most memorable part was doing the canyoning activity. I loved all the activities but the most memorable was canyoning because it was beautiful and challenging. We also made lots of friends. I’d recommend people to bring some good trainers that you don’t mind getting wet.
Overall, I’d rate this holiday with 5 stars! I really enjoyed it. Barisa really helped me on canyoning. Maria and Sara helped me generally with everything. I enjoyed everything, and everyone was really kind and friendly. The drivers and all the helpers were also very kind as well. I would definitely love to come back here again. Libby
Libby Anderson (Letchworth Garden City)

Absolutely fabulous!
The tour leaders and guides made the trips and adventures superb – their knowledge, enthusiasm and love of Croatia was infectious. Tips we would give to other travellers booking this active family holiday – Talk to the guides, they know so much, go with the flow, enjoy long lunches after the activities and be ready for the laughter – there is so much of it. Nina and Antonija were wonderful and engaging, so knowledgeable and happy to spend time with us & the children. Russell was so enthusiastic. Everyone on the adventure week were kind and encouraging, they made the activities fun & enjoyable. We had absolutely fabulous holiday and we will be recommending it to everyone we know. Thank you!
Judy Bonham (Eastbourne)

Super activity holiday!
Classic times! Wont be forgetting this trip in a hurry. Too much fun had, mainly made possible by the great staff, a cracking apartment choice, and awesome water sports. Each day was to look forward too, messing around on the sea and beach. The biking and climbing were exceptional tours also. My partner had never tried this type of vacation and I was relieved he loved it. The kids even more. We met some lovely families throughout our 8 days and have alot of people to thank for a great multi adventure week on the island of Brac. Croatia is a delight and if you want action, relaxation and like meeting fun people, then book and go for it. Super holiday.
Heather Lavell (Leicester)

Awesome Croatian adventure
We had an awesome time. Daniel our tour leader was a fantastic and personable tour leader, always there to answer an queries. Ana (receptionist) was also very accommodating and approachable. Etty was also a lovely host. We loved spending time with Tim, especially on the way to the bike tour (which was fabulous). All in all, this is a great family active holiday in Croatia. Well planned and we would thoroughly recommend to anyone. Thanks to Maria in the UK for answering all questions we had a 5 star time.
Donna Cooper (Sydney)

Fantastic family fun
Most exciting aspects were the adventure park and SUP boarding. Our most memorable parts were sharing with other like-minded families and having meals together. We met some wonderful people and local Slovenians during our holiday. Overall, our family holiday was fantastic fun. We loved tasting Slovenian liqueurs, sunshine and we were lucky to see the atmosphere during the summer festivals!!! Amazing experience, would come back to Ljubljana and Slovenia again!
Katy Johnson (Bolton)

Such a beautiful country
The area is very safe with easy access to the beaches. We had a wonderful active family holiday and it was a pleasure to spend our time with such lovely people and in such a beautiful country. We will definitely come back to Croatia! Thanks from all the Jonson clan xxx
Patricia Jonson (Minehead)

Smoothly organised
My 2 teenagers loved the whole trip. The group of people we met were very friendly and like minded. The daily scenery was beautiful and the hotel was very clean and comfortable. Everything was smoothly organised by Theo & Ivo, who both efficiently organised transfers, routes, behind the scene support, leaving us to have fun and relax. The kayaking and cycling routes were very good. Loved the boat trip. In a week we saw so many lovely places, towns and villages. We came home refreshed and with a zest for Croatian life.
Matthew Hallow (Dartford)

Ski safari rocks!
Slovenia is a gorgeous country and somewhere we will certainly visit again. It is something that has to be tried. The concept of a ski safari is brilliant and your team of instructors, hosts and drivers didn’t let us down.
Simon Daivna (Solihul)

Well done!
For us, the most memorable experience was the white water rafting. We felt that Green World holidays benefited local people and the economy. Reps also encourage you to recycle plastic bottle by buying one and refilling it with the tap water. We really enjoyed this Croatia family holiday, staff were brilliant, and they all seem to enjoy their jobs. Well done!!!
Petter Witter (Bolton)

We would do it again!
We had a great time in Podstrana, made some great memories and met fabulous staff and guests. The most memorable part was doing things that are out of our comfort zone and our teenagers loved the social side of things! All tour leaders were exceptional. They helped and encouraged where needed, had fun with the kids, helped the adults. They could not have been any better or more helpful.
We loved the holiday – please do more in different locations – all four of us would do it again!
Mary Tibbotts (West Byfleet)

Some great characters
This was a fun active family holiday in Croatia, the days were planned to perfection and each day offered a new and exciting route. In the past we have enjoyed self guided tours, but we welcomed this fully guided tour, so our brains could switch off. The staff were fantastic, the food is something to look forward to every morning & evening in Croatia. They certainly know hospitality. Russo was a knowledgeable guide, friendly and happy to socialize each evening. We met some great characters and can whole heartedly recommend this family trip. We would consider trying something similar next year.
Debbie Watts (Kingston Upon Thames)

Spreading the word
Our guided family multi activity holiday in Croatia was brilliant. Tour leader ‘Daniel’ was extremely friendly, helpful and professional. This was an impressive service and holiday experience. Magnificent scenery, eating was a social able affair and maybe too much wine was drank by mums and dads. It was a great way to spend a week in beautiful quiet area, meeting lovely guests, and knowing all the complicated stuff was already organised for you. We have been spreading the word to friends and family.
Emily McCarthy (Swansea)

Croatia is stunning
Croatia is a stunning country. We had the most amazing 2 weeks. Hosts were great, knowledgeable and always smiling. Ivan was amazing doer ‘behind the scenes’. Drivers and guides were great with all the teenagers. Tour leaders were also great at keeping us safe and relaxed. They also bring sweets when we do activities, much appreciated! We especially enjoyed canyoning and rafting, but all activities were great.
Jon Russums (Stoney Stratford)

Simply stunning Slovenia
Slovenia as a country took our breath away. We didn’t know what to expect when we booked our family holiday, but the moment we met Jaka and Vida (our guides) we knew it will be a fun family week. Meeting other families was also amazing experience as the group bonded well even after the first meal. We enjoyed kayaking, boarding and rafting although Olimpic games were the best laugh! Great accommodation, location, food and people – couldn’t ask for more plus your teenagers are constantly out and about instead of staring in their screens all the time.
Mia Newton (Edgbaston)

Highly recommend this holiday
Like most parents with teenagers you are always trying to find that balance between fun, food and wifi. It’s not an easy combination but your Omis teenage adventure holiday definitely delivered. Omis gave super access to the coastal, countryside, cities and sea. Making plans each day as a family unit actually worked really well and having the main structure in place made our lives easy. Hotel Plaza, was a higher 4 star level that expected which was again a big plus. We can highly recommend.
Nina Carr (Belfast)

Bikes were excellent
We loved the high ropes in the countryside and exploring the back roads on bikes. Your guides definitely took us to places for sure we wouldn’t normally be able to access. The bikes provided were excellent and thankfully comfortable. Our hosts were really welcoming, keeping a great energy during our week stay and obviously ran the routes with great attention to detail. The hotel was clean and spacious and in a pretty location of Lapad. Evenings were very socialable, much wine was drank and we always slept heavily after a days fun and eating. If your after a guided single parent active family vacation then this will tick the boxes – unless you’re only after luxury accommodation, which our hotel was not.
Naomi Haliday (Kensington)

Please keep in touch
We did have a great time thank you. The hotel worked extremely well. The guides and equipment were fabulous. Thanks again and please keep in touch for similar family ski trips.
Tim Ridgewell (Dorchester)

Food allergies well handled
Well organised . Guides and staff were excellent. Special praise to Marija and Barisa. Food allergies of our children were very well dealt with. Great family active holiday overall and will definitely consider using your company again .
Margot Eller (Banbury)

Particularly enjoyed canyoning!
We had a great time again on our 2nd family holiday in Croatia. Thanks for all your help with food allergies and arranging extras. You guys deserve 5 stars! Everything run smoothly, but we particularly enjoyed canyoning and seeing teenagers relaxed and having so much fun!
Margot Donachie (Dumfries)

Local team were great
I loved seeing our kids interaction with the other families on this activity holiday. Croatia and Dubrovnik are truly stunning! All our excursions were great, from quad biking to cycling and kayaking! Russo and local team were great. They are wonderful with the kids. It’s amazing to see how they manage to be very professional and knowledgeable, but at the same time really funny with great sense of humour! Keep up the good work guys.
Julie Wood (Bolton)

Croatia has it all
We particularly enjoyed our time kayaking; it was magical and we have already decided to book another adventure holiday for our family for next year! Croatia has it all, great beaches, wonderful town, beautiful islands – it’s all there. Local team and guide Russo were really helpful and encouraging during the week. Special mention to Matej dad to be who is so knowledgeable of history and general knowledgeable of Croatia. Well done!!!
Peter Gilmore (Burton on Trent)

Idyllic Dalmatia
Cycling through the idyllic Dalmatia countryside along farmyard tracks and empty roads was the summer highlight for our family. The apartments were as described. 3 star standard and very conveniently positioned to beach, shops and restaurants. Two gala meals were brilliant. Wonderful food and wine everywhere we went. Russo & Damir, provided a brilliant smiley service as tour leaders. We were not worried about routes and getting lost, and we really enjoyed the company of our guides and new family friends. Russo straightaway is very approachable and responds quickly to sort things out, as were the Green World holidays staff before I travelled. I know we made a few changes, and they were very patient – thankyou Maria.
Kristin Didsbury (Telford)

Activities were fantastic
We went on a 2 week family active holiday to Croatia with Green World. Weather was fantastic, ranging between 23 and 31 degrees Celsius. Location was perfect. The activities we did were Mini-rafting, Zip-Lining, Mountain Biking, White Water Rafting, Canyoning and various oother multi active events. All of the activities were well organised and I didn’t need to think about a thing whilst I was out there. We could just relax and de-stress from work! The activities were fantastic, I particularly recommend, rafting, Canyoning and climbing, though the other activities were fantastic too. Guides, accommodation staff and people in general were very easy going, a great laugh, very positive and we got on really well; they really made the trip special and were very engaging so we got the most out of the family active trip. The food was lovely, the portion size in general was very big and I tried the local cuisine which I would recommend (particularly if you like fish). In summary this was one of our top 5 holidays, I would recommend it to anyone regardless of age and fitness, they really will do everything they can to accommodate your needs.
Alison Davidson (Kent)

Really enjoyed our holiday
Really enjoyed our first experience with Green World Holidays. Especially enjoyed the high ropes and climbing activity. Will definitely do it again. Thank you to Theo for making it so easy and stress free!
Carl Franz (Stone)

Didn’t want to leave
Fab holiday, loved every minute of it. Even the whitewater rafting which I was dreading!! Great local staff who were very friendly, helpful and professional. Thoroughly recommend this company and this activity week, one of the best family holidays I’ve had. Our 17 yr old daughter and 15 yr old son also loved it and didn’t want to leave.
Julia Simpson (Northwich)

Fab adventure holiday
We have just returned from a week in Ljubljana on the Slovenia Adventure holiday for teenagers and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for fun activities combined with tranquil settings, lovely food and a fun loving yet professional group of guides. I went as a solo mum with 3 teens, but it’s one of those holidays where it doesn’t matter. As it turned out our group was a great mix of parents and children. The multi activity holiday did exactly what it said on the tin. We did everything that was promised even though swelling rivers threatened to jeopardise one or two of our activities. The guides were very knowledgeable of the moods of the river and rearranged everything so that we could fit it in. All the activities were great fun and made more so by the guides who obviously wanted us all to have a fantastic time and made it their mission to put as much fun into everything as possible. The hotel was lovely and there was no chance of going hungry in Ljubljana. All in all, this was a fab trip for me and the kids
Josie Bagridge (Basildon)

Great family ski trip
The skiing was great and varied. Although Slovenia has small resorts, it didn’t matter as each day we went somewhere new. The pre-holiday advice about the activities was perfect and created the right balance for us. There are alot of off-the shelf tours & holidays, but the difference we noticed was drastic in comparison to you guys. Our intimate group, was so friendly. The kids just loved it. Everything I wanted from a family ski hoiday in Slovenia. Thankyou for a great trip.
Catherine Nevin (Oxford)

Excellent organisation and support!
River tubing was the most fun and inclusive activity for everyone. It was great to have it early in the week to build confidence for those not so sure. We’d recommend to other travellers to be open and challenge themselves. Every member of the team (including drivers) did an excellent job. Good organisation, good time keeping, support and special attention for the teenagers; especially on the activities was well noted!
Kevin Luxford (Nice)

Lovely personable company
Our two week activity holiday in Croatia has been very memorable, so many thanks. We’ve experienced great activities with a lovely personable company. Great locations with access to great beaches! The families we met were delightful and we very much liked our instructors. Special mention to Russo, Daniel and Igor.
Alan Large (Sidmouth)

So well organised
We thoroughly enjoyed the multi active Croatia family holiday with our 2 boys (aged 12 and 14 years). Everything was so well organised and we loved taking part in the activities as a family. Wonderful local hosts who looked after us brilliantly. My 10 year old tell us he doesn’t want to go on holiday again unless Barisa and Sara are there!!
Susie Oliver (Cheshire)

Trying new things
If we had to choose the most exciting part of our family activity holiday in Croatia, we would say canyoning. Trying new things like this makes me so happy! Maria, Barisa and Sara were all excellent guides. Always happy, helpful and did their best to make an excellent week, which it was. I will definitely recommend it to everyone who will listen!
Nicola Wright (Pangbourne)

Bright and colourful
Our travel manager, did a great job in giving me honest advice and counsel over the phone and was a reassuring presence throughout the booking. Brac island is idyllic, about forty minutes ferry from Split. We were met by your staff and introduced to other guests already arrived there. Meals were much better than expected. Being a three star apartment, I didn’t set the bar too high, but again pleasantly surprised. Rooms were clean, bright and colourful. We didn’t have a bath, but that’s a small gripe. Our tour leader was helpful, questions answered with a smile, the days were well planned and well paced. The social life in the evening was super along the sea front. The kids met loads of other children, so super for them. Overall, we had a great time and feel in better shape, and the smell of lavender is still in my dreams. Very poetic I know.
Kylie Bennett (York)

All the activities were great
Very good experience. Really appreciated the ‘well organised’ nature of the transfers, family activities and accommodation in Ljubljana. All the activities were great. Especially the mountain resort!. We’ll fish out and share some of our best pictures for your Facebook. Slovenia is superb destination. Really ideal for multi sport adventures. My husband felt really relaxed and said it was nice to just switch off and let the guides do the thinking. I have to agree. Elle and Tommy loved the experience, I think it was very good for their confidence. Now they want to do more things where it involves new families and teenagers.
Sophie Rayner (Milton Keynes)

Treated like VIP
We were treated like a VIP from start to finish. Transportation was fabulous, all YOUR activities were great. Reps were amazing 10/10. It was great visiting so many different locations and hidden bays and beaches. We’d recommend other travellers not to pack too many clothes, take water shoes and dry tops. We will recommend this 2 week adventure holiday to friends. Never heard of Green World Holidays before, but so glad we found you. Very nice experience, the kids think mum and dad are legends.
Clive Horn (Westerham)

Buddy up teenagers
It was great, more exciting than expected, I’m already looking for a similar ski holiday for next winter. Never knew ski bikes were so much fun. We loved Slovenia. Its beautiful I’m definitely planning to go back there, and I have a great excuse because I still have to see the rivers and canyons. It’s a different kind of ski holiday and brilliant way to meet other parents and buddy up teenagers. Hope this is helpful feedback. Oh, maybe a bigger selection of rental helmets would be better.
Lucielle Vaniet (Alkmaar)

Sense of achievement
Canyoning and kayaking were our favourite activities because they were fun and canyoning gives a sense of achievement at the end. It was all excellent – 10 out of 10! The staff including Russo, Marijana and Barisa were brilliant, fun and made us feel very welcome. Drivers were also brilliant, we loved all the events and meeting other people. This is our first family activity holidays in Croatia but we are already thinking it won’t be the last!
Jane Campbell (Richmond)

New and exciting route
This was a great activity holiday for single parents travelling with their teenagers. The days were planned to perfection and each day offered a new challenge and exciting route. In the past we have enjoyed self guided tours, but we welcomed this fully guided tour. It took the pressure of my shoulders. My dad brain could switch off and just let the guides take over. The hotel & staff were good, breakfasts ok. Your two gala meals were a great way to bring people together. The food we enjoyed was as varied as the days. My favourite activity was the climbing and cycling. Split is a great city, I’d recommend to other parents reading this to make a pre and post stay there. We met some great characters along the way and can whole heartedly recommend this single parent adventure week in Croatia. We would consider trying something similar next year. I hear great things about your base on Brac island, as my friends family went there.
Reggie Mitchell (Brighton)

Finally I get to see Dubrovnik
Hello, just a quick thank you message. We arrived home safely and can’t believe the week has passed. All the itinerary ran like clock work. Our private guide Andre was superb. Great humour and easy company. He was flexible when needed and added to the experience. Finally I get to see Dubrovnik. It’s been on my hit list for such a long time now. The red rooftops are so iconic, it actually gave me chills to see them. My three daughters had a wonderful experience, enough for them to ask about joining a group for next year. I’ve marked your Brac island adventure for next summer. The Hawkin family has the adventure bug now! Many thanks again to all x
Helen Hawks (Boston)

Friendly and happy
Croatian’s are friendly and happy people. Especially our tour leaders, who were superb all the way through. I wouldn’t hesitate to do this week again with my two boys.
Chris Manning (Sheffield)

Best ever
Possibly the best ever family trip we’ve done. Croatia is gorgeous, very affordable and family safe. Thank you to all the guides that made these two weeks such a wonderful trip. Thanks, Debbie
