SAFE TRAVELS!
What if I have specific dietary needs (e.g., I don’t eat gluten, etc.)?
We’ve got you covered! Since this is a fully vegan trip, all meals are already plant-based. For additional dietary needs—like gluten-free, soy-free, or allergies—please inform us at least 3 weeks before the trip starts (by May 11, 2025). Our team will work closely with local partners to accommodate your preferences, though please note that while we’ll do our best, options may be limited due to the nature of group dining and local cuisine.
Is this trip suitable for solo travelers?
Absolutely! This trip is perfect for solo adventurers, couples, or friends. The group vibe is friendly and welcoming, and shared meals and activities make it easy to connect with fellow vegan travelers.
What’s the group size?
We’re keeping it intimate with a small group, ranging from a minimum of 5 participants to a maximum of 14. It’s the perfect size for a close-knit crew of like-minded explorers—small enough for personal connections, yet large enough for plenty of fun!
What are the best airports for this trip?
For this vegan trip, Zagreb is the ideal airport to fly into since that’s where we kick things off! We recommend departing from Dubrovnik airport. If your original flight is in and out of the same airport (Zagreb or Dubrovnik), you can book an additional local flight between Zagreb and Dubrovnik with Croatia Airlines.
Do I need a visa or travel insurance?
Visa requirements depend on your nationality—check with your government’s travel advisory for Croatia (part of the Schengen Area). Travel insurance isn’t required but highly recommended to cover unexpected cancellations, medical emergencies, or lost luggage. You’re responsible for arranging it.
