This Brac island adventure holiday is up there with my favourite holiday memories! A great way to see Croatia, visitng some of the Islands and taking in the stunning views everyday. We were lucky to be with some great families with teenagers so we had a lot of fun and a lot of silly laughs. Maybe more challenging than I was expecting, but for me that just made the experience all the more better! Very happy, please keep in touch for next year in Omis.

The only upsetting point was leaving Brac island. My kids had in their own words Wicked times. Great to see Split, and walk the old town streets. Had been staring at pictures of this since I booked this Croatia family active holiday. Great feeling to have been there now. Surprisingly this wasn’t even the highlight.

Serena Davidson, Cardiff

Our favourite activities were Sup boarding and biking, but we thoroughly enjoyed all activities. Lana and Russo are fantastic, always eager to please us. The sporting staff were wonderful, the apartment itself excellent position to the sea and village centre, walking distance to everything we needed. The best cocktail can be found at Cvic bar, also a great place to hide from the kids. However, there was no hiding from the next days morning head! We had a really fantastic time, the group got along so well. We take with us many fond memories of Croatia! We would recommend your family activity holiday in Brac island and Split. Regards – Oliver & kids

What an amazing country! What a great people! We loved every bit of our trip, special thanks to our guide Luka who made us feel safe all the way down the river despite our paddling abilities. If your kids are of that age, where they need to meet other teens, this is a brilliant idea. There a small company, with a big energy for customer service. Places are very limited to 5-7 families. So book early. We had tried to book 2 years ago, but you were sold out. We tried again and they were sold out. 3rd time lucky I guess.

Dwight Mills, Chiswick

I recommend everyone to book your Brac island family adventure week. This is the best 7 nights we ever spent on any family activity holiday. So much action, splashing, swimming, jumping – teens loved it. If we ever come back to Croatia this will be the one thing we will definitely do again. Thanks Russo, Maria and Daniel.

Karen Michener, Clapham

We planned this Brac island adventure with another family, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. It was our first time in Croatia and we decided to see more than just the beaches and old towns. So we chose to do a multi-activity week with your team. Best decision we could have made! We loved the excitement of our ‘attempt to paddle’ on the sea. SUP boarding is so inclusive, something we will try and do again as a family in England. Laughter and hilarious jokes made by our guide Daniel along the way! Thank you Maria and Russo for all. your encouraging words. The kids love the experience. We felt really proud looking at the amazing photos you sent us! Lots of love from both families xx

It was an amazing family experience. First time on a kayak and never climbed before. The staff were very helpful, whenever you do something wrong, they give confidence and the skills. Brac is beautiful, the varied landscapes are amazing. From rolling hills to perfect coastlines. Climbing for me was the best, my wife loved the SUP boarding and my twin teens loved the cycling. If coming to Croatia, do the Brac island experience for the week. You’ll leave as a family team.

Gordon Parks, Exeter

If you’re looking for an outdoors family activity hoiday in Croatia I’d definitely recommend a trip with Croatia Family holidays. The staff were fun and helpful from start to finish and we always felt safe with the instructors. We went in August and the heat was delightful. Gorgeous warm breezes and sunshine beaming off the Adriatic Sea. We didn’t feel rushed and enjoyed our island time leisurely paddling, biking, climbing, splashing, laughing, eating. This is a wow-factor holiday. Maybe not cheap, but totally worth it. Big family experience!

We did the Croatia island adventure week in July this year and it was great! The temperature of the water was like bath water, I never wanted to get out. The location is perfect for families with kids or teenagers. All the ages got on really well. Your office staff were very transparent about ages/genders of other kids booked on. During the active holiday in Croatia we were guided by Russo and he did a great job! I imagine Brac will be in the spot light soon, so I urge families to get there now rather than later.

Sue Parsons , Swansea

Lovely experience thanks Russo. Without too many spoilers for families reading this, we came away on a real high. Brac island is a gem. The apartments are modern and perfectly located. I ran most days along the sea front, ending with a swim in the sea. The village is so tranquil in the morning and the sunsets are burning orange, pinks and reds. We would change a thing and will be joining your family mainland trip next season. Thanks from me, Alice and the boys.

Colin Thurton, Worcester

This is probably the best family adventure holiday you can go on in Europe hands down. You get to kayak, Sup board, bike and cycle, plus loads more hidden surprises. Brilliant fun. We were with families who had never done an active holiday before but it didn’t matter because Dan and Russo are the best. Fantastic fun. Highlight of our trip was the climbing – thank you

Debbie Spencer , Cork

The Accommodation was very nice, clean, comfortable, each apartment overlooking the pool area. We spent 7 nights on this fabulous Croatia family adventure holiday on Brac island. Each day wassuperb, lots of laughing and playing with other families. The local village is just gorgeous, I could live there in a heartbeat. Here on our days off we used to spend the whole day without any need to go anywhere far. Everything is 5 minutes walk. Kids were safe, parents were happy, locals friendly. Our hosts that run the activity week are very friendly, they really try hard to make their guests feel comfortable on vacation. Russo and Daniel are just delightful.

Helen Spriggs, Derby

All personnel were very friendly and helpful. The activities were great and designed to the correct tempo for families. You are running a eco minded personal business, in a beautiful part of the world. Thank you from all our family.

Elliot Christchurch, Birmingham

As a family we had been to Croatia before, but not as a planned family activity holiday with other people. We liked the flexibility in the trip and at the same time, lots of pre-planned days. We bonded with our children and had ‘ME’ time aswell. Surprisingly, this adventure holiday was relaxing. My teenagers were off having fun and I knew they were safe and very happy. Your guides, Russo and Josip are excellent.

Magda Peters, Hetton

I wouldn’t hesitate to book with you guys again. The Brac island experience is just super. My teen daughters and young son, can’t stop talking about the days of fun we had. Defo enjoyable days and fun nights. We met lots of nice families, the accommodation super and very safe for kids. Tour Leaders were masterful at there craft. Obviously professional and flexible to our needs. Russo was great with the kids and engaging with the parents. The staff couldn’t do enough for us. For people that are traveling responsibly. These are low impacting activities on the environment and this company supports conservation and pro-actively encourages ec0 policies. We donated to their clean beaches charity, which the company matched in donation. We thought that was nice, and very different to big companies. We had a great stay.

James Payne, Sheffield

All the Tour Leaders and guides have been fabulous from the initial contact with the office to the staff at the resort. Big shout to Drinna for joining in the activities and guiding us to so much fun. Speed boat was epic, as was the canyoning. Local people made us feel very welcome and we found many wonderful sides to this Dalmatia area. Top tip – buy water shoes for pebble beaches.

Nick Davis, Chiswick

Staff were friendly, and very sweet with my youngest son Toby. Zara my eldest loved meeting so many girls her own age, which took the pressure off mum and dad. We all felt ‘Looked after’ and really can see why people rave about Croatia. The food is Italian style, but maybe less refined with bigger portions. The nature is simply beautiful and the activities we experienced were extremely well operated. We really respect how your company runs the daily tours and co-ordinates with all the families. Its not an easy job, but you make it look easy. We had a great stay and would encourage others to simply ‘Go!’

Alice Beckett, Glasgow

If you haven’t been to Croatia, then you must go! If you are going to go, then book with Croatia Family Holidays. Apart from the bus driver that got us lost on the way to climbing (it was funny though), this family activity holiday is the best we’ve experienced in Europe (now our 6th trip). Brac island is delightful, and without mass tourism. The water is gorgeous, you can literally spend hours swimming and snorkelling and not get cold. Our favourite activity was SUP boarding and the climbing (when we got there lol). Really well organised and many thanks to Russo, and Dan the Man.

Katy Geary, Stoke

Family Croatia activity holidays definitely are suited to the region. Thank you for making it such a fabulous week for the kids. There were very sad goodbyes at the airport and we would consider coming again. What’s not to like? Good food, great weather, lovely people. Hope that answers your questions, thx Marie x

Karen Whittle, Chester

Great mix of adults and children, great guides and hosts! We loved the country, history and scenery. Thank you to all! Louise x

Louise Tavistock, East Sheen

Our guides on Brac island were excellent. I graded the equipment and safety as excellent throughout. When asked about the apartment standard of rooms, food and the staff, again..yes – excellent. In fact the food – Amazing! The portions were huge and so really filling, perfect for after a mad day of activities. Overall experience, u guessed it – excellent. Oh and can i just also praise the office staff. The knowledge and support of your travel manager was excellent. We had never heard of Brac island and grateful we listened to you. If you have children in the tricky teenage ages, then this is a must-do holiday, that brings the family together. Thanks Daniel and Peter.

Laura Finlayson, Kettering

We had a great stay on Brac island and very much enjoyed our stay with your team. For me, I liked the fact we were kept entertained and busy. My husband is a bit more of a pool and book man, but even he loved the new challenges and experiences. We made lots of new friends during the activity days, and most we only 5-15 minute bike away. So we often buddied up with other families during afternoons and evenings. We participated in some incredible activities and the staff were great personalities and very kind to our 2 kids. The facilities for the sports we booked were brilliant and 100% safe, no grumbles there. Apartment was very nice and of course the location is divine. Brac was a lovely place to chill, and we even made it to the mainland one day to see Split. The island is very picturesque and NOT a bit over run with tourists, so glad we came to Brac instead of Hvar. Overall, the combination of activities was right for our family, the Croatians were a delight and I would recommend to others seeking this type of family vacation to go for it. Thank you to Daniel and his staff x

Harriet Knebworth, Guildford

The Brac active holiday was great fun. We were blown away by the raw nature and thought all the local Croatians we came in contact with were charming. Food was delicious; so much organic farming and fresh produce you certainly came back feeling fit and invigorated. Great trip – thank you!

Kylie Bennett, Margate

We got married in Split many years ago in the old town and often talked about the area with our children. So now the children being 13 and 16, we thought we’d show them the beauty of this country. Initially, we had settled on Hvar island, but are now so thankful of your guidance – to have reconsidered and chosen Brac as our base for 10 nights. Maria was our travel manager and couldn’t have been more helpful. The apartments were fantastic. Nice swimming pool, WiFi to keep the kids happy and the sea was a short stroll away. Inside the apartments, best described as: modern , fresh, clean and well run, so no complaints but don’t come for luxury. The nearby supermarket was perfect for daily breakfast. Throughout our stay the staff were amazing, friendly on reception, welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Climbing was a fantastic experience, and super booster to me personally, as I’m not that comfortable with heights. I’m so happy I’d didn’t sit out or change the activity! Second favourite for me, but the family fav was definitely the sea kayaking. Transfers worked well, and even no complaints with EasyJet. All in, a wonderful trip. Many thanks.

David Baxter, Crawley

Thanks for following up – I am a bit snowed under at the moment with catch up jobs as I have been away for 6 weeks! I will write a more detailed email soon but overall, Alex and I had a wonderful time – Ante and his team were great. They were friendly, attentive, and informative and nothing was too much trouble. We really did feel that we had a “tailor made” experience and we saw various aspects of Croatia. Kind Regards Lizanne.

Lizanne Knights, Swansea

My wife and kids spent a week here. The accommodation was simply amazing. Rooms were of a 3 star nature, but the views were 5 stars. Most important were the very friendly staff who really tried to make your stay enjoyable. Our local guide Russo was a true gent. The tubing days worked very well, with good equipment provided by your tour leaders. Guided tours were diverse and well organised. Overall very good value and thoroughly enjoyed this trip. Remember to pack lots of sun cream, Croatia is blue skies and hot. Old trainers recommended, although you can rent canyoning boots at the shop. We were advised to bring one large beach towel, we would say bring two per head.

Simon Parks, Nottingham

Super super super. I needed the wow factor for my boys this summer (stupid Dad let them down last year) and this was the ticket! The VIP, Gold, Willy Wonka ticket! We are still all buzzing, the boys can’t stop posting their pictures onto their Instagram’s and Facebook’s (a sign of success I’m told). Thank so much for making me the super-Dad!

Jon Howls, Richmond

This was a new style of vacation for our family, and one we would consider repeating in Europe. Croatia is a beautifully formed country, the people and nature are delightful.
