We have broken down your Croatia spending guide so that you know all the ways to cut expenses so you can spend more on the things that really matter (shopping!).
We understand that our guests want an authentic experience without the outrageous price tag, so here are three simple ways to keep your budget in line for 2026:
1️⃣ Eat Like a Local: Skip the waterfront "menus with pictures" and head two streets back. Look for a Konoba (traditional tavern) serving a Marenda, a delicious, affordable mid-day meal that the locals swear by. And if you're ever unsure, keep a close eye out for where the locals are dining, because they always know best!
2️⃣ Bring Cash: While major cities take cards, those charming family-run boutiques, local markets, and hidden hole-in-the-wall bars often prefer Euros. You'll also need cash to settle your on-board bar tab, any optional activities you book with us, and to leave a lovey tip for your wonderful rep & crew.
3️⃣ Book a Cruise in June: This is the ultimate "sweet spot" for summer travel. You get the perfect Mediterranean warmth and crystal-clear waters, but with shoulder-season prices and far fewer crowds than July onwards. (We also offer the cheapest pricing for cruises in June!)
