About Croatia Curated
Discover the story behind Croatia's premier boutique cruise specialists.
Our Story
Croatia Curated was born from a deep love for Croatia's stunning Adriatic coast and a passion for sharing its beauty with travelers from around the world. We believe that the best way to experience Croatia is aboard boutique vessels, where you can access hidden coves, intimate ports, and authentic local experiences that larger ships simply cannot reach.
Our carefully selected fleet of boutique ships offers the perfect balance of comfort and intimacy. With a maximum of 38 guests per voyage, we provide personalized service and an atmosphere where new friendships bloom as naturally as the Mediterranean sun warms the deck.
Every itinerary is crafted to showcase not just the famous destinations like Dubrovnik and Split, but also the secret gems known only to locals—quiet fishing villages, pristine beaches, and family-run konobas where Croatian hospitality shines brightest.
Meet Tamara
Your Personal Croatia Cruise Specialist
I was born into a Croatian family, raised in Germany, and have called the United States home for the past twenty years. That blend of cultures gave me something invaluable: the ability to understand what international travelers truly need, paired with an insider's knowledge of Croatia that only comes from growing up connected to the land, the language, and the people.
Travel has always been more than a hobby for me—it's a lifelong passion. Over the years I've built deep expertise in Croatia's boutique cruise world, developing close partnerships with the finest small-ship operators along the Adriatic. I know every vessel, every captain, and every route personally, so when I recommend a sailing, it comes from firsthand experience—not a catalog.
My mission with Croatia Curated is simple: to give you the kind of personalized attention that large agencies can't. I work directly with our cruise line partners to secure the best cabins, the ideal itineraries, and the small details that transform a good vacation into an unforgettable one. From your very first inquiry to the moment you step off the ship, I'm your single point of contact—available, responsive, and genuinely invested in making your trip exceptional.
Whether you're celebrating a milestone, planning a group getaway, or simply dreaming of turquoise waters and medieval harbors, I'll craft an experience tailored to you. No cookie-cutter packages, no call centers—just honest guidance from someone who has sailed these waters and wants you to love Croatia as much as I do.
Let me take the guesswork out of your Croatian cruise.
