Astarea is a travel agency founded in Dubrovnik by people whose careers span hospitality, travel planning and destination management. We have brought these different perspectives together to create an agency that supports guests and business partners from the first idea to the final day of a journey.
Our work is to bring together everything that makes a stay in Croatia enjoyable. Accommodation, transport, excursions, meetings, business commitments and special occasions become a carefully planned programme shaped around the people travelling. We give the same attention to an individual arrival, a family holiday, a group tour, an international conference or a wedding bringing guests together from around the world.
Our starting point is Dubrovnik, a city where hospitality has been part of everyday life for generations. Our work extends across Croatia and into journeys connecting it with neighbouring countries. Local knowledge has a practical purpose: knowing where a guest should stay, how to arrange a day, how much time to allow between visits and which experiences suit their interests.
That is why we see Astarea as a single point of contact for complete travel and event planning in Croatia — a true one-stop shop for Croatian tourism. We make planning easier for guests and give agencies, companies and organisers a partner who can bring different services together and coordinate their delivery.
Journeys made for you
Incoming travel — arranging the arrival and stay of visitors in Croatia — is at the heart of our business. For individual travellers and groups, we design programmes combining accommodation, transfers, sightseeing, excursions and activities. We adapt the content, pace and level of service to guests’ wishes, the purpose of the trip and the available budget. Some guests want a peaceful seaside holiday, others want to explore history and culture, while others prefer an active stay filled with new experiences.
Accommodation that suits your journey
When choosing accommodation, we consider the journey as a whole. A hotel for a business group, an apartment for a family and a villa for a shared holiday each offer different benefits and meet different needs. Location, accessibility, facilities and proximity to planned activities matter as much as the property’s category. Our role is to help guests find accommodation that suits the way they want to spend their time.
Transfers and car hire
We arrange transfers and transport for individuals, families, business travellers and groups, from airport and port arrivals to journeys between hotels, cities and event venues. For guests who prefer to explore Croatia independently, we arrange car hire. Transport is coordinated with the rest of the programme to make arrivals, departures and every step in between easier.
Book a transfer · No.1Excursions, sightseeing and active holidays
Excursions and sightseeing offer a closer understanding of a destination. Our programmes include cultural and historical heritage, natural sights, gastronomy and local life. We arrange city tours, day trips, active and adventure programmes, and multi-day tours through Croatia and neighbouring countries. We pay particular attention to the balance between planned activities and free time, because a good itinerary leaves room for personal discoveries.
Themed journeys and pilgrimages
We also prepare themed journeys, pilgrimages, programmes for senior travellers and trips connected with cruises. Every group has its own needs, interests and expectations. We therefore consider the pace of sightseeing, journey times, accommodation accessibility and all the details that contribute to a comfortable trip.
Business travel, conferences and incentives
For business clients, we support the organisation of corporate travel, congresses, conferences, meetings and incentive programmes — reward and motivational trips for employees and business partners. We coordinate venue selection, accommodation, transport, the working schedule and accompanying activities. A well-organised business event allows participants to focus on the purpose of their visit while leaving space for conversation, socialising and discovering the destination.
Events and special celebrations
Events and special celebrations are also part of our work. Whether it is a product launch, a company anniversary, a gala dinner or a private gathering, we begin with the occasion, the guest list and the atmosphere the host wants to create. We then bring the venue, logistics and required services into a practical, clearly agreed plan.
Weddings in Croatia
We approach weddings with particular care. Alongside the celebration itself, there is everything around it to arrange: guest arrivals, accommodation, transfers, shared gatherings and additional activities during the stay. We help couples coordinate these details so they can spend more time with each other and the people sharing their day.
Our approach
Our approach is based on clear agreements, destination knowledge and attention to detail. We listen to what guests and partners want, suggest solutions and bring services together into a coherent whole. From the outset, we want everyone to understand what has been agreed, how the programme will unfold and whom to contact during planning and travel.
Tell us what you would like to experience, whom you are bringing and what kind of event you are planning. Astarea will make sure every detail finds its place.
