My experience on Katarina's Aurelia was wonderful. The Aurelia is a beautiful ship and our trip was very comfortable and well managed. Our group of passengers was, for the most part, a cohesive and lively one which was tremendously appreciated, as this might not have been the case. The crew were all just great. Jossep and Robert are lovely guys and took very good care of us. Kudos to Mira for her delivery of daily information about stops, changes to our schedule, local history as well as the strengths of the Croatian people in their efforts to service the tourist population that has been expanding. Croatia is handling this growth very well. Croatia is a gorgeous country, every aspect of it. The people are lovely overall. The food was clean and fresh. We were lucky to have clear skies and warmish seas to swim in. Early October was fine in this respect and I think most of the seasonal crowds had gone. I will say that our "itinerary", as presented by Always Croatia, was not .... how can I say? Consistant? Reliable? Available? It was unclear as we approached our sailing date what our itinerary was, because it had seemed to disappear. It was not on their website anymore. This seemed to affect most those passengers who had booked specifics, like "wine tours". My cruise experience was not affected but some disgruntled energies were felt onboard. My experience overall was affected by some lack of communication in the area of "transfers", before the trip. Fortunately the transfer was accomplished and the cruise experience was lovely.
