Andrea

Team Leader for Adriatic Region

Andrea was amazing. So cheerful, genuinely interested in our visit and willing to do what it takes to make our visit the best. She was responsive and extremely helpful in whatever we needed. It was a joy to meet her and her planning and scheduling of our activities was excellent. We would give her a rating beyond a "5".

Born and raised in Dubrovnik, Andrea’s involvement in tourism began as a child as her family rents apartments for tourists. Her inquisitive nature led her to study journalism in the Croatian capital, Zagreb, though her heart remained in her hometown and she returned there after her studies. One of Andrea’s biggest passions is singing and she has been a member of the Dubrovnik Folk Ensemble Lindjo for over 13 years.
