"I am a tour operator based in South Africa. In April I took a group of 46 tourists on a visit to Croatia. This was my 3rd visit with a group. Croatia is beyond description...the beauty of this piece of heaven is absolutely breathtaking! Dubrovnik is mysterious and magical...a journey into the past. The guide for all 3 tours was Julija Antunovic. This young lady made our tour a resounding success! She is vibrant, energetic, knowledgeable, cheerful, highly flexible to any special requirements and remarkably patient and accommodating. Everyone in the group was greatly impressed with her passionate keenness to educate us in detail about the history and culture of the region. Her professionalism was unanimously noted and appreciated by the group and contributed to the total success of the tour!"
