Travelling in Croatia
Welcome to the ultimate Croatia travel guide. Before you embark on a trip to Croatia you’re going to need to know a few things. So whether you’re travelling in Croatia for days or months, we’ve outlined it all.
Currency:
Croatian Kuna
Language:
Croatian
Best time to visit:
Spring & Autumn
Currency: Croatian Kuna. Although Euros are also legal tender as well many places will not accept them.
Best time to visit: Off-season. Croatia gets very busy in the summer months so the best time to pay a visit is April to June and September to October.
Safety: Croatia is a very safe country. The crime rate is low and Croatians rely very heavily on their tourist industry, meaning most are very kind and will help you wherever possible. Like most crowded cities be aware of pick pockets and be respectful. There are very steep fines in place for inappropriate behaviour including drunken behaviour and nudity, especially in Dubrovnik and on Hvar.
The Financial Stuff:
Tipping: Like most European countries 10% is the customary tip rate.
Cash & ATMs: Croatia is a very cash rich society. They like payment by cash, especially anywhere outside a major city.
