This was my first holiday travelling alone. I joined the Jewels of Croatia tour and was made to feel very welcome by Louise. The tour was well organised and ran smoothly. Hvar had excellent rooms and it was really nice to stay with the locals. The accommodation was all reasonable with the exception of the location of the hostel & quality of the mattresses at the hostel in Korcula and the movie hotel in Zagreb, was not the best location or quality. I would say that although it is advertised as a budget holiday by the time I'd bought my flights, food, transfers etc, which are not included in the Tucan price it was not budget, and other companies which use higher standards of accommodation and include meals actually are comparable in price. Having said that I met a lovely group of people, Louise was a fantastic tour leader and I would consider Tucan again.
