Our wonderful one week trip to Zadar

Dear Tobias,

in July this year we were not 100% sure if we should do a one week trip to Zadar in Croatia. We searched the Internet for travel tips and found your absolutely fantastic Croatia site.

We are so happy about that! We emailed you more than a couple of times and you answered all our questions (remember us?).

We want to thank you for all your time you spend helping us make the right travel decisions.

After we returned from our fantastic trip we were very busy and are sorry to not letting you know about our trip earlier. In your last E-mail you asked us if we could write a short review of our time in Zadar - and this is what we wanted to do.

Where to begin? What most concerned us was the accommodation. As you know, our idea about a trip to Croatia was very spontaneous. The best thing I think was to use your hotel-compare-tool (or whatever this is). We quickly found a hotel within our budget. The name of the hotel was Bastion and we were very satisfied.

We were out sightseeing most of the time and just needed a place for nights. Even the breakfast was included. During lunch time we buyed some bakery items which you can find everywhere. It was so delicious. In the evenings we tried some restaurants and that was an experience itself!

We tried to discover every street in Zadar and it was just so wonderful. The old streets and so many historical churches.

Our highlight was a trip to Kornati archipelago (thanks again for this great tip).

The weather was sunny and the boat trip was so relaxing. The price also included a lunch! The tour operator showed us some pictures from dolphins in the Kornati area. We were watching the water all the time - but we didn't see dolphins. Maybe the next time.

What else can I share. The only thing was that we just had one week. Two weeks would have been great. We really consider to book a trip to Zadar again, and then visit some other great places in the surrounding area.

In spring we will seriously look for great Dalmacija destinations and your fantastic site is our first place to look!

Thank you so much for all your help!

Anna and Michael
