Cycle the Croatian Coast

From big wows to hidden gems, Croatia is a haven for cyclists who love to get off the beaten tourist trail and explore the very heart of the beautiful Dalmatian Coast.

Beautiful vineyards, historical cultural highlights, impressive landscapes and stunning beaches await you on an adventurous cycle tour.

With medium length rides each day along trails and quiet roads, you’ll see sights and hidden gems most will miss or don’t even know about! Pedal leisurely through Hvar’s cobbled lanes, Korčula’s small-town feel, Split’s harbour esplanade and Dubrovnik’s walled history, meet friendly locals, cool off in crystal clear seas and toast a fun day in the saddle with delicious local wine from a nearby vineyard and indulge in local delicacies.

All levels of riders are catered for and cycling tours are very popular with solo travellers. And you certainly won’t feel alone for long as you pedal along quiet rural roads surrounded by newfound friends.

“Taking your bike on the ferries is easy. When in Hvar be sure to enjoy a late afternoon ride to the picturesque harbour town of Jelsa and enjoy delicous tapas on the waterfront”

Why I love travel:

Travelling takes us out of our comfort zone and inspires us to experience new things that we otherwise wouldn't in our normal day to day lives. It enriches your life from meeting new people from all walks of life, trying new food from different corners of the world, and humbles you to appreciate the small things in life.

My travel tips:

Always have travel insurance
Wake up early - whether it be to see the sunrise, or to skip a queue, or get a coffee at the local café.
Make a list of the things you want to experience and pre book as much as you can.
Stay local with everything easily accessible on foot.

My top 5 favourite destinations:

Italy - rolling hills and crystal blue waters, stunning villages and cathedrals, amazing food and wine.
South Africa - rich cultural experiences, amazing wildlife on safari, breath-taking landscapes.
Croatia - stunning beaches and unbelievable landscapes from the islands in the Adriatic to the Krka National Park.
Mexico - amazing food, fascinating Mayan culture, stunning beaches, and fabulous architecture from ancient temples to the colonial cathedrals.
Canada - my birth land! The people, the rich forests, lakes, mountains and wildlife.

What's in my suitcase:

First Aid kit as you can never be too prepared.
Travel Diary - make an effort to write down the highlights of your day, you will look back in appreciation.
Sarong or thin, long scarf - will come in handy as a towel or to cover your shoulders when need be.
Small change of local currency - whether it be to buy a bottle of water or a quick snack or to leave a tip.

After 30 years selling travel, its still a buzz creating fabulous holidays, watching my clients anticipation and being a part of the planning, knowing the excitement they have towards their journey and of course hearing all about it when they return ... It's almost as good as being on the trip with them!

Travel has really changed over the last few years, so let me help you navigate this new travel era, and create a holiday to remember, with the backing of an incredible House of Travel team.

I have travelled to over 40 countries and I am always plotting what's next - however, the more places I experience, the longer the longer the list gets! I love the anticipation of a new adventure and learning as much as I can from every new journey. I am a self-described travel enthusiast, so being able to talk travel every day and share my passion for travel is a dream come true. I love helping people realize their travel dreams and being able to live vicariously through experiences.

Getting to know my clients and learning what's important to them is something I really enjoy, and helps when creating an itinerary that's is as unique and as special as the traveler.

There is nothing more satisfying to me than a client popping in after their journey with tales to tell of the adventures they've had. I love hearing peoples stories and experiences as every experience is so different - there is no universal truth or one size fits all option when it comes to travel!

For me travel is inspiring and transformative - it allows you to learn more about the world around you, and in the process, more about yourself.

Nice to meet you! I love traveling with my husband, whether it's hiking the Camino de Santiago, biking through Latvia, or relaxing on beach holidays in places like Greece and Fiji. Recent highlights include cruising Norway and exploring Puglia, Italy—though I’m always guilty of overpacking!
