A superb tour - An excellent and very informative couple of hours learning about both the history of the Dubrovnik region and the devastation caused to the region by the Balkan war. Vedran is a super guide, full of knowledge and able to convey the trauma of the war years without taking it to very dark places. Thoroughly recommended!

Abandoned hotels in Kupari - I realise you can research and take this trip yourself but you are missing the most crucial part. That is the human touch and knowledge . Vedran brings this in abundance and we learnt so much. He brings the site alive. Highly recommend

Private tour - Very informative and interesting tour. Our guide was very friendly and happy to answer questions. It was good to find out the history of the area and shocking to realise what happened in such a beautiful location and not that long ago.

Abandoned glory - A great tour with Vedran, exploring the abandoned hotels at Kupari Bay and hearing about the war. Fascinating history, brought to life perfectly by our guide.

Excellent Tour Highly Recommended - On our recent visit to Croatia, Vedran gave us a very special, personal tour of Kupari. This tour is very worthwhile and a must if you are visiting the area. Vedran is a wonderful guide, extremely knowledgeable and he brings a valuable personal perspective to the tour. He is great company and we highly recommend.

From Indira Gandhi to Sophia Loren - I couldn’t make a group tour so Vedran agreed to a personal tour on Sunday 8th October; and what a privilege that was. Not only the history of the resort but we strayed into more personal territory in relation to the Homeland War which made the tour emotional as well as interesting. Vedran is a consummate professional, with a love of his country and his work. He is also engaging and charming. Thank you for those few hours Vedran. This tour is well worth doing and I highly recommend. I know that people can wander round the site but a guided tour is essential to understand what you are looking at and also to understand the title of this review. The beach is the best in the area so ideal for a nice swim after the tour.

Fascinating tour of Kupari - We wanted to get a deeper insight into Dubrovnik, beyond the beauty and beaches. We were lucky enough to get that with Verdran, who vividly brought the war to life and gave us a sobering tour of the destroyed hotels at Kupari. (We also added a Mlini tour, but I think that is less interesting to the casual visitor unless you are staying for an extended time in Mlini.) Thank you!

Kupari Derelict Holiday Resort Tour 2023 - We had noticed this derelict beach resort from the water taxi on the way to/from Dubrovnik one day and were fascinated by it and wanted to learn more about it. Luckily we found this tour with 3 Keys Guided Tours via a leaflet at our hotel reception. I contacted Vedran via What'sApp as the set tour days on the leaflet, didn't fit in with our plans for the week. Vedran was quick to respond and was able to fit us in last minute for a personal tour of the Kupari resort. Firstly, what an amazing and fascinating place! Vedran explained all about the history of this ex military beach resort, from it's beginnings as a tile factory (that supplied the red tiles for the roofs of Dubrovnik), to the busy and popular holiday resort for the rich and famous during the 70's and 80's. We were shown around three of the now derelict hotels, where original reception desks, bars and even the Olympic sized swimming pool are still there. Vedran explained about the design and use of the hotels back in the days, before the Homeland war, where they were heavily targeted by the opposing side, with the scar's from the shelling still visible today. I can highly recommend this tour, as Vedran is so knowledgeable about it's history and then subsequent demise. What's great is that it is all open for you to have a longer look around once the tour is complete. Interesting to see if plans for it's possible redevelopment in the coming years. Take time out of the usual tourist trips around Dubrovnik and explore this historic and fascinating place. Oh and wear bug spray, we got caught out! Thanks Vedran for such an amazing experience and your kindness with the transport. Tony & Nick Visited September 2023

Fantastic guide - The guide can always make or break a tour, in this case Kendra was fantastic, he had first hand knowledge of the homeland war as a teenager and you could get a better view of things through his eyes. To see the shells of the hotels was a very sad experience. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone interested in the history of Croatia.

Kupari walking tour was the highlight of our holiday - Walking tour of Kupari (the ruins of several grand hotels used as a military retreat pre 1990s) with Vedran is a must. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A fascinating tour of the bombed hotels in Kupari. Vedran gave us a brief history of the area, the background and impact of the Homeland war and led us through the shells of each building that remained. Vedran was a first class and engaging guide who spoke perfect English. Highly recommended.
