Custom self guided bike tours in Croatia
With more than 30 years of experience in travel business in Croatia, we pride ourselves for being the true insiders and knower’s of Croatia.
Biking is our passion and hobby, and we have been riding on most of the roads in Croatia, whether Dalmatian islands, Istrian peninsula or inland of Croatia, paved roads or mountain bike trails!
Our rich cultural and professional background, with 4 generations of our family in the travel business, our love for original values, nature, Croatian traditions, as well as our experience with the specific requirements of logistics make us one of the best 'insiders', who know every secret and interesting place, every hidden site that is worth visiting here in Croatia. If your are the kind of folks who enjoy the great outdoors and an active vacation style, but prefer comfortable hotels over campgrounds and lean-to's, Meridien Ten is the perfect option! How about kayaking around Dubrovnik city walls, how about eating a Dalmatian style fish stew somewhere around the corner with fisherman's family, how about trying homemade tomatoes and wine with the family living in place where tours buses cannot pass because the road is too narrow, how about biking on some roads which don't exist on the map or passing Napoleon's road on bike. We can even organize pirvate airplane transfer for you,
Your trip can be based on one of our suggested routes or created from your own dream.
As each person is unique, each person or group of people travelling together will have different request for their bike holidays. Meridien Ten is here for you, to help you in putting together the perfect biking holiday, designed just to fit your desires and specifications.
Whether it is a family bike trip, group of friends riding together, bike club holidays or team buildings we are here to help you create a custom vacation bike trip for you, and make sure your holidays are fun and relaxing. We can always suggest some other activities like sea kayaking, sailing, dining and site seeing.
We organize and provide custom trips that will fit your budget, whether you want to stay in luxury hotels and villas, travel with fast private boats, eat and get reservation in the best restaurants, or you want to stay in budget accommodation, do some easy hikes, use our traditional wooden boats, stay on catamaran; sail in the afternoons, bike during the day, sometimes have a small sea kayak tour, just let us know and we will develop together with you the best vacation you can imagine!
Not to be missed, Mediterranean cuisine is one of the healthiest in the world and we will definitely suggest the best places where you can taste and enjoy it. Sometime, these places cannot be found easily. Sometimes we will suggest trying something somewhere which is not included in menu’s list! How about some eggplant pate, or goat’s cheese with grilled vegetables, or famous Peka – Croatian version of slow food cocking, and of course; sea food and fish, which can be prepared in so many ways,…. There are so many traditional ways of preparing food and there are only few restaurants/tavern/konoba – individuals that still keep this tradition alive. By promoting them, we are preserving our local culture, which is slowly disappearing in the new, urban and fast living lifestyle….
