Budget travel · Croatia

Hi I’m offering my 29-year-old daughter a trip to Croatia. We can only go in August, and we’d love to combine hiking and snorkeling. It seems like Dalmatia could be perfect for both—do you know of any youth hostels or Airbnbs at reasonable prices? Thanks in advance Laurence from Bayonne

How to use local transport... local bus for the trip from Dubrovnik to Kotor while avoiding organized tours leaving from Dubrovnik. The flexibus buses cost 32 € ...64 € round-trip... other buses are 28 €..... I don’t think Croatians charge that much for a 92 km bus ride... anyone have any info.... or should we rent a car if there are two of us? Best regards, Serge
