I was disappointed in the content of the tour and expected more depth of "ancient istria" from our guide

Our driver was very good but we were a little concerned that the minibus didn’t have any seatbelts.

Great find

We were greeted and collected on time and travelled in a lovely, air-conditioned vehicle. Our guide Tin, was excellent throughout, super helpful and knowledgable. He interacted with all our children in a way that got them involved in the history and stories of the region and the histotical sites. The lunch was delicious and clearly, locally prepared. Our drivar also took us on a small detour to view the Lim Fjord at the end, which was an unexpected bonus!

Guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Only improvement could be the lunch, the wine wasn't great when compared to a typical restaurant, also recommend to take snacks in case menu does not appeal to certain people.

Well organised, informative trip. Guide was so knowledge. It was a long day and weather very hot. It would have been good to have longer in Pula & Porec but on the whole a good day.

On a whole a lovely experience. The tour guide bobaan super guy. Tho I think the free time should start st the golden gates. 30min free time isn't enough. The family restaurant is beautiful same as the good and service. Tho I think 1 free alcohol drink Is enough. As we had a very drunk disrespectful lady for remainder of tour. Porec very beautiful

Philip our tour guide was very good. The meal would have been more enjoyable if the hosts had explained what we were eating. Did feel that we were rushed about with little spare time.

Excellent tour. Picked up promptly from hotel. Our guide (Filipe?) was great. It rained absolutely non stop all day but it didn’t dampen his enthusiasm. His energy made the day memorable. Great info given in both towns. Lovely lunch included as well. Worth the money. Thank you.

Claire Rowley

Really good trip guide was informative. As others have said on previous feedback would have preferred more time in pula , we only had 30 minutes which wasn’t enough time but had over an hour in porec which is a much smaller location with less to see.

Traveled as As a couple - 42 years old

A fantastic day out. Good to see other places in Istria and the lunch was delicious. Sylvia, the guide was very good too. Knowledgeable and friendly.

In pula we did not see the old town. We were told about markings on the back of the gate on the entrance but we did not see them. Also we were not told about the basilica in Porec. In sum Pula was a disappointment but Porec was great. Lunch was excellent.

Beverley Saddington

Great tour with excellent guide. Just wish we’d had a bit more time in certain places

Overall we had a lovely day - the only improvement would be to have had more time in Porec. It’s an absolutely beautiful little town, and we would have enjoyed having an extra hour to spend browsing the shops and sitting down looking out to sea.

Great day out, lots of interesting places to see without having to walk too far in the heat. Tasty lunch. Guide was very good and informative.

Traveled as With family - 32 years old

Busy day from start to finish. The lunch was really lovely, in beautiful surroundings. The tour guide was knowledgeable, enthusiastic and he was obviously very proud of his wonderful country and it's heritage. I was travelling with teenage son so having something well organised was a necessity. The 38 degree heatwave did make it hard going at some points but this was only to be expected and our guide made sure we kept in the shade as much as possible. Many thanks.

The guide was informative and kept the day interesting. Lunch was good. Only downside was the lack of free time in Pula. We spent more time in Porec and lunch, but would have preferred more time in Pula. Maybe not have 3 separate destinations as there was a lot of time spent on the bus between destinations

Susan

The guide Boban was outstanding and the day was informative and enjoyable

The guide Val was welcoming, friendly and extremely knowledgable which made the whole experience so much more enjoyable. The whole day flew by, we felt safe and in good hands between Val and the coach driver (aplologies foegotten his name) , The Traditional Croatian lunch was a delicious experience, all homemade on the premises by the family run business. So glad we went on this excursion a definite highlight of our holiday.

Second time on this trip and enjoyed it as much this time as last. Val our guide was brilliant, very knowledgeable and gave great commentary. You could tell that she loved her job and also the place were she lives

The tour took in the towns of Porec and Pula and a beautiful lunch made by a local lady. The tour gave the right amount of time at each location. The guide was very friendly approachable. She was very enthusiastic & proud of her local area which is lovely to see.

Varied agenda from the Roman amphitheatre in Pula to the pretty town of Porec, with an excellent lunch in between. The star of the show was our guide Vladana, who was very engaging, knowledgeable and always interesting.

The trip from start to finish was brilliant. The tour guide (Vladana) was very knowledgeable and obviously very patioante about her country and its past, credit tobthe TUI team. The home cooked lunch was lovely and to be able to visit numerous towns in one day was great.

Good balance of activities.

Our Guide Vladana made the day! Her knowledge was amazing and with the support of the fantastic driver, whose name escapes me, together they made it an enjoyable day. Our only critique would be that we personally felt we had too much time in Pula but could have enjoyed more time Porec just due to the type of towns they are and what you can do. Overall it was great to explore other areas of the Isterian Coast and to learn about its history.

Mbc

Traveled as With friends - 52 years old

We knew this trip was a full day but it proved to be very very tiring and we wouldn't book another full day trip. Lunch was included for which we were encouraged to tip but really it was ok but not great. 2 half day trips with no lunch would be better. The guide was very good but we were all so tired pm and free time wasn't much at all.

Tessa

Very enjoyable if long day. Vladana is an excellent guide, we appreciated learning about Croatia’s modern history as well as its past whilst on the minibus. The one disappointment was that visiting the 6th century Euphrasian Basilica in Porec is not included. The tour itinerary gives the impression that it is, when in fact you are only taken to the entrance. You have 45 mins free time which isn’t long enough to visit it and get back to the bus. It was fun meeting our fellow travellers at lunch.

Happy Traveller

Very good trip. Guide very knowledgeable

Guide was rather quiet on the coach. Insufficient free time in both towns. Lunch went in a bit too long & would have preferred time in the towns & not have lunch included.

The whole day was fantastic, friendly warm welcoming bringing all members of our party together we started as strangers left as friends, the tour was very interesting and informative from start to finish our guide was the best

Lovely hotel, located on island. Mattress not great, could have done with a topper. Room very clean, food plentiful. It would have been helpful to have had a Tui rep at the ferry port as it was quite confusing first time. Ferries have a rather haphazard timetable and we had to rely on the help of another guest who had visited before. We did the Istrian history day trip which was good but we didn't get enough time to look around Pula and Porec on our own. But overall a very enjoyable holiday.

Annie

Exellent guide but far too much ‘talking’ and not enough free time. Considering it was a 9 hour trip we only had 45 mins free time in Pula and 45 mins free time in Porec Too long spent at lunch stop also

Tom H

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour! Vladana, our guide, was incredibly knowledge and engaging. Lunch, in a remote taverna, was delicious and gave us time to chat will others in the tour. There was a good mix of being guided and free time.

Mike R

Really good way to consume some of the history & culture of the area. The bus elements were relatively short, so you don't feel like you're spending the day looking out of the window. Our guide was really friendly & helpful. Lunch is great value, and way out into the countryside - and somewhere you're otherwise extremely unlikely to have visited. Well worth it.

Guide was very good, professional, knowledgeable and highly personable. The meal at lunchtime was excellent and authentically Croatian in a beautiful setting. Good mix of guide-led time and personal time to explore.

Vladina our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the history of Istria and the towns we visited. The lunch time meal was a traditional Croatian fair served with local wine which my wife and I enjoyed very much.

Richard

The guide was excellent. Lots of information about the historic sites, very clear instructions of meeting places, etc. Nothing we didn't like. The information advertising the trip could be improved, for example saying the trip was 4-8 hours needs to be more precise.
