Flight time.
It takes around 24 hours to fly from Auckland to Croatia, including a stopover. Despite the long flight, Croatia’s stunning coastlines and rich history make it a must-visit destination.
CROATIA. An Island Hoppin’ Heaven!
Bok! This dreamy destination has it all: enchanting beach coves, mouth-watering cuisine, and fascinating heritage.The shimmering Adriatic Sea embraces Croatia's charming islands and sun-kissed towns. It's a perfect place to enjoy the ocean without the crowds. But if you venture inland, you'll discover stunning landscapes, rugged peaks and rolling hills in northern Croatia. You can shuck oysters and taste wine at our favourite island spots, wandering between the red-roofed Hvar and the sunny Korčula. And if you're a Game of Thrones fan, you can join a custom tour with an expert guide through Dubrovnik, following the mighty footsteps of the Lannisters.
Best time to go.
The best time to visit Croatia is from May to September, especially if you’re interested in the coastal regions. The summer months are perfect for enjoying the Adriatic Sea and exploring the islands.
Time difference.
Croatia is 10 hours behind New Zealand, so you’ll need to adjust to a significant time difference.

With over 40 years of travel experience, including 30 years living and working in the USA, I’ve developed a deep passion for showcasing the beauty and diversity of the United States. But my love of travel goes far beyond that. Travel is not just a career for me—it's a lifelong journey that has shaped my understanding of the world and its many cultures.
I thrive on helping my clients discover unique, off-the-beaten-path destinations, and I have a special fondness for authentic, remote locations that offer a genuine connection to the culture and landscape. My adventures have taken me to the vast sands of Morocco and Egypt, where I’ve explored ancient ruins and vibrant markets. I’ve trekked the Inca Trail in Peru and hiked to Everest Base Camp in Nepal, experiencing firsthand the stunning landscapes and welcoming communities. Cuba’s lively streets and rich history also hold a special place in my heart.
Whether it’s trekking through the mountains of Nepal or uncovering hidden gems in Peru, I love guiding travellers to places that offer more than just sightseeing—they offer a chance to truly connect with the world. I find great joy in helping my clients turn their dream holidays into reality, whether they’re after iconic landmarks or remote locations that are rich in culture and adventure.
Through my work as a travel agent, I create experiences that go beyond the ordinary, helping travellers discover not only new places but new perspectives. Let me help you craft a journey that will stay with you long after you’ve returned home.
