If your Intrepid trip starts on or before 31 December 2022, you must provide proof of full vaccination against COVID-19.

If you are unable to be vaccinated for medical reasons, you may apply for an exemption. Exemptions will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. To apply, you must provide a medical certificate from a medical professional. 

Children under 18 are exempt. Children aged between 5 and 17 years old must provide proof of either vaccination, recovery or a negative COVID-19 test.

Trips from 1 January 2023 onwards

From 1 January 2023, Intrepid will no longer require travellers to provide proof of vaccination against COVID-19 (excluding all Polar trips and select adventure cruises). However, we continue to strongly recommend that all Intrepid travellers and leaders get vaccinated to protect themselves and others.

Specific proof of testing or vaccination may still be required by your destination or airline. Please ensure you check travel and entry requirements carefully.

Croatia's climate is split into two different regions - along the coast and in the mainland. Depending on which region you're travelling to, the weather may vary slightly with temperatures higher in the mainland area due to a lack of sea breeze. Winter temperatures are also lower in the mainland with snowfall expected and enjoyed, whereas on the coast, snowfall is quite uncommon.

There are a number of ways you can travel from Split to Dubrovnik including flying (the total flight time is around 40 minutes), self-driving which takes around 2 and a half hours and catching the ferry which also stops at islands such as Hvar, Brac, Korcula, and Mljet (the total journey is 4 and a half hours). 

What you pack for Croatia largely depends on the time of year you're travelling in but since it is a popular summer destination, you should pack a swimsuit, sandals, appropriate sun protection, and clothes that will remain comfortable even if the temperature is warm - think light, breathable layers. Most islands along the coast of Croatia are quite casual so you can leave your fancy clothes at home if you want. 

Absolutely. All passengers travelling with Intrepid are required to purchase travel insurance before the start of their trip. Your travel insurance details will be recorded by your leader on the first day of the trip. Due to the varying nature, availability and cost of health care around the world, travel insurance is very much an essential and necessary part of every journey.
