How it works:
- Situation: most tour agencies and operators are fine, with the most egregious “scams” being misrepresentations.
- Set-up: for instance, there have been reports of operators advertising big, shiny boats only to have you all cramped up with many others in a small boat. There have also been similar reports with traditional transport providers (e.g. buses, vans, etc) as seen in one of the stories below.
Places to beware:
- Dubrovnik
What to do:
- Offline operators: ask – is the operator licensed? Is there a website, office and working phone number? Are there real online reviews? What does the price cover – is it too cheap?
- Online platforms: GetYourGuide (best day tour platform in Europe) also has many popular tours/transport options in Croatia.
