Dubrovnik

I absolutely loved MVJ and would highly recommend it! The stunning coastal rides, beautiful islands and charming towns made every day feel special, with incredible views around almost every corner. Add in the delicious local food, lovely atmosphere and a perfect balance between cycling and downtime, and it was such a fun and memorable way to experience Croatia.

Travelled as a single and managed to twist my knee before the actual cycling trip started. Not a good start. But the e-bike I’d ordered was great, and it was just a matter of hitting the battery harder than usual. The rest of the group was lovely and Alan Skulic the group leader was very patient and understanding – even carried my suitcase up 3 flights of stairs in Dubrovnik! Adrian our driver was equally patient and helpful. Croatia is stunning and the routes were varied and enjoyable. Some didn’t enjoy the gravel part; I’m used to gravel so I loved it. Some lovely downhills and the long climb on the first day was especially enjoyable. Prekrasno – the Croatian word for stunning. Easily remembered: break-crash-no.

This is a very enjoyable cycling trip. Don’t be put off by the ‘moderate to challenging’ label – to us it didn’t seem more strenuous than the ‘moderate’ trips we’d done before and, if you’re on e-bikes as we were, you have extra power if you need it and can still get good exercise!

The routes were interesting and enjoyable. We had good weather. It was still quite warm. We enjoyed the ferry journeys to and from the islands. The e-bikes were good and the front paniers helpful. The old towns of Hvar and Korcula are lovely and of course Dubrovnik is special.

The three hotels were fine and their breakfasts exceeded our expectations for continental hotels. We ‘upgraded’ in two of them and had a family suite one and a sea view balcony in the other.
