Customer Reviews

Croatia by Lonely Planet
I like the Lonely Planet city guides. I find them to be very useful and true as far as guides go. I have taken these travel guides with me on my trips to various cities. I enjoy making my travel plans using these helpful guides.

travel prep
Solid vacation advice and the book really helped us narrow down what it is we want to see in Croatia. I do like Rick Steves travel advice just as well so we are using this book as a supplement.

Lonely Planet Delivers, As Usual
My wife and I used this book recently on a trip through Croatia and found it a very good mix of broad and deep, offering plenty of the details we needed for our stay in Split and drive down the coast towards Makarska, as well as great recommendations on what to do and where to go in general. We followed the book's advice when we went to the island of Brac (just off the coast near Split) for the day and visited a tiny little town on the far side of the island called Milna, and found it to be just amazing. Recommended.
