Green World Holidays

One of the best consultants is green world holidays.

What a fantastic week we had with GWH in Croatia. Everything ran smoothly from our first enquiry to the final drop off at the ferry port in Split. Our two boys (12 & 14) loved it all; the activities, the pool at the apartment, the beach and the other kids they met. There was even a surprise birthday cake for our youngest at the farewell dinner. Barisa and Sara were amazing hosts and nothing was too much trouble. They mixed in so well with the kids and adults. We met some great people and always seemed to be smiling. The transport between activities was seamless, the guides for the various activities were all friendly and helpful and the apartment was great. Croatia is a beautiful country. We would recommend GWH to all families that like to be busy and have a bit of adventure. Make sure you have a few days to recover afterwards!

My 14 year old son and I have returned from an amazing week in Croatia with Greenworld holidays. This is our 2nd holiday with Greenworld and they were just as good this year for the Croatia trip as they were last year for Slovenia. I can thoroughly recommend them for any family with teens (or pre-teens).

Greenworld take the time to make sure the group of families in the trip have similar aged teens, and this was brilliant. My son loved being able to do the adventure activities with the other teens instead of just me, and then to hang out with them in our free time – both at the villa pool and on the nearby beach. I loved knowing that he was having fun with new friends, and I had time to relax with other parents or on my own.

The activities are really well designed and pitched. All the parents could do them, as could the kids, with added twists thrown in for the kids so they had extra fun. I feel like I鈥檝e been away for more than a week, just because it was so different from every day life.

The information provided beforehand was spot on, except that I think canyoning is a bit more accessible than their information suggests. They say it requires a moderate level of fitness, which is true, but I would say it鈥檚 specifically about mobility and ability to cope with adventure terrain. In particular, the tunnel you have to go through is actually about 3m high and a bit over 1m wide, and although it was dark, at all points I could see a source of light.

The accommodation is great in terms of socialising with the other families and for the teens to just mess around in the pool or play cards. There were loungers for sunbaking and tables in the shade. I recommend taking UNO, and other card games that groups can easily play to get to know each other, and maybe some small pool games or inflatables.

The apartments themselves were fine – perfectly good for a week and I managed to do porridge each day and pasta a few nights when we couldn鈥檛 be bothered going out. There is a small supermarket (think petrol station Tesco Metro) nearby for basic supplies, although I took the oats for porridge from England!

The guides Barisha and Sara, and logistics lead Ante, were incredibly helpful and friendly and couldn鈥檛 do enough for us to make the holiday go smoothly.

We had a week in Podstrana in July/August which was one of the best family holidays we have had. Our 14 year old daughter immediately made friends with other teenagers in the group and if she's happy then we're happy! Great activities which were as much fun for the adults as the children! Sara & Barisa made sure everyone had a great time and Brett was a great help when we booked to make sure we were matched with families who had children of a similiar age. Would highly recommend.

We did the family adventure week based in Podstrana Croatia. Greatly enjoyed by both parents and teenagers. We had loads of fun on all the activities – we were also impressed by the quality of the activity guides and equipment and attention to safety. The programme included enough activities to keep us busy but also gave us relaxation time. The group format worked well – the kids loved having other teenagers to hang out with and the whole holiday had a lovely relaxed social vibe. Would definitely recommend.

Brilliant fun for adults and teens. They take you to the best places and arrange everything!

This was our second holiday with Greenworld and we enjoyed it just as much as the first. Two very different holidays. One on Brac last year was focussed around the sea and hiking. This latest one in Ljubljana has a mountains and rivers focus and being based in such a beautiful city was an added bonus. Vida is an amazing tour leader and worked so hard to help us all gel as a group which is so important for the teens in the party to gain the most from this type of holiday. I do not hesitate to recommend Greenworld

This is the second holiday I have booked with Greenworld, we鈥檝e done Slovenia and we鈥檝e just come back from Croatia (Podstrana) and we have loved them both. The activities are really well organised and great fun. We also really enjoy being with a larger group of families (we have met some lovely people) and Greenworld do a great job in matching families with similar aged teens which really works. I would (and do) recommend these holidays to any families who enjoy being active, especially families with teenagers.

My family agreed that this was one of the best holidays we've had in recent years. Was great fun meeting the other families and sharing the adventures with them. Our in resort guides were truly wonderful people and made sure that we were so well looked after! We will book again!

This was an excellent holiday. The organisation was great. All the staff were friendly and efficient. We particularly enjoyed chatting to Barisa about his knowledge of the local history and culture and he was lots of fun with the kids too. Maria and Zara were also fun and efficient and very helpful. All the activities were as described and we were impressed with the quality of the equipment and the guides who were all very professional and experienced in the activities. We also enjoyed meeting the other families and socialising with them in the evenings. A really exciting fun holiday to do with teenage children. Would definitely recommend!

Had a great holiday with Green world in Croatia. Staff very friendly and well organised. Our boys had a great time with the other kids on the trip and we got on very well with the parents. Would look to go again at some time in the future

We had a great week in Seget Donji – Croatia – this August. The Croatian coastline is beautiful with crystal clear sea and lovely architecture. We had not been to Croatia before but we will definitely be back!
We had our two teenage daughters (15 and 17) with us who enjoy activity holidays and this holiday was just perfect for us all. The activities were well organised and appropriate for adults and teenagers.
The other families on the trip were lovely. Our 'young adults' enjoyed having other children around just as we enjoyed having other adults around.
The apartments were spacious and close to the sea. There was a couple of supermarkets and plenty of restaurants close by.
A very enjoyable time had by all.

Myself and my 15 year old son had a great holiday in Slovenia. The activities were great and well organised. The other families were very friendly and both the parents and children mixed well. The guides Vida and Mike were great and brilliant with the children and nothing was to much trouble. My only negative was that a fridge in the rooms would have been welcomed and the breakfast was basic and poor. That said, I would defintely recommend this holiday. Thank you Green World Holidays.

We spent a week at Seget Donji in August 2018, on the activity holiday organised by Greenworld. "We" being husband, wife and two teenage boys, aged 19 and 15. We all loved it. The activities were really interesting, the other families were great fun, the scenery was beautiful, everything was well organised, and the guides were extremely helpful and friendly. Each family stayed in a separate apartment and there was just the right balance of privacy and communal activities. Everything ran smoothly and yet it was not intrusive in any way. One of our best holidays ever. Thank you to the Greenworld team (and to Split Adventure) for this special experience. The Geary family

Our holiday in Podstrana, Croatia was very well organised. The activities were exciting and the river scenery was beautiful. Some of the activities were located quite a distance from the apartment but the transport was very comfortable and the drivers friendly. The highlight for us was the extra day's boat trip to Brac Island. We met some lovely families and our son enjoyed time at the pool with the other teenagers, which was the main purpose of us choosing this type of holiday. The welcome meal in the local taverna was lovely; the location of the restaurant for the final meal was perfect, up on the hillside but unfortunately we had to wait a very long time for the food to arrive, fortunately there was plenty of wine to keep us going! Our guides were lovely, full of enthusiasm and information. The resort of Podstrana was a little disappointing, compared to the coastal area we had stayed in the week previously, and it was quite a trek down to the beach. This didn't matter too much as we were kept busy with the activities most of the week. The pool is small but the terrace is a lovely communal area to meet up. Planning to visit Croatia with green world again next year!

Not long back from our week in Brac and it truly was a success. If you can accept your not going for 5 star accommodation and luxury and embrace the reason you've chosen this holiday was for the adventures – then you will have a great time. Daniel was an inspiration if only there was a Daniel in every port. If you need something he knew someone who could organise it. On our free days we asked him to organise White Water Rafting and a private boat to a restaurant he recommended and it was all perfect. The mountain biking was pitched at just the right level for our two girls and better half. The Rock climbing (my favourite) was enough of a challenge even for my eldest who manages 6b's at home. All the activities were on your door step and Suitivan was very pretty and very much un touristy. Would we use Green world again – yes Brett and team looked after us through out andI only wish we could have done more activities. We made some great friends and will I'm sure keep in touch. Many thanks. Brian

We were on the family adventure holiday in Croatia. Impressed with Greenworld from the start of the booking process till we said goodbye. Staff in the resort were excellent and went out of their way to ensure we had a good time. This was our second greenworld holiday. Hope to return for a third.

We joined Green World Holidays for an activity adventure week in Croatia. The experience was excellent from administration and booking through to the sports leaders onsite. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend using this company if you are considering this type of holiday.

Fantastic week in Slovenia, beautiful scenery, brilliant group and we had great fun taking part in all the planned activities. We went with our 11 year old daughter who quickly made friends with the other children of all ages who made her feel part of the group from day one, she loved it. Vida and Miha were excellent tour leaders and there to help at any time with any questions, we would certainly recommend this trip.

Fantastic holiday with teenage children where they are kept really busy with like minded teenagers. The adults also have a great time joining in and socialising.
Our favourite activity was the kayaking – never kayaked down waterfalls before! Slovenia is beautiful and Ljubljana's a little gem, around which the children could safely wander.
The organisation was great with Vida and Miha able to answer all of our questions and address our concerns.
My only negative was the quality of the hotel – location fantastic but the rooms and the breakfast were a little basic.

We had a fantastic holiday in Slovenia with Green World: what a beautiful gem of a country. Charming Ljubljana is a perfect base from which to explore the surrounding mountains, rivers and lakes. The hotel was spacious and comfortable and the company reps- Vida and Miha were both lovely tending to our every needs and entertaining us greatly. Our group gelled well and our 12 and 14 year olds had a ball with the other kids. The activities were very well planned and expertly run in the most scenic settings. We all loved it and would certainly look into other adventure holidays run by Green World in the future.

We had an excellent holiday in Slovenia with Greenworld. This is the 2nd year running we have booked with Greenworld and the holidays have been excellent.
The host staff are superb and activities are exciting and well run. Whole family thoroughly enjoyed the holiday and already looking at next year with Greenworld.
I would recommend Greenworld holidays to everyone – Total 5 * experience

We thoroughly enjoyed the Family Activity Week in Croatia with Green World Holidays. The accommodation, activities and hospitality organised by the team all exceeded our expectations. We particularly enjoyed the canyoning and the gala dinner at the beautiful taverna in the hills on the final evening. We made some great friends on the trip and have already recommended Green World Holidays to friends & neighbours back home.

Our Green World Holiday was great and we really enjoyed all the activities. I was dreading the white water rafting and it was the best activity I did!!
The staff were all excellent, very friendly and helpful.
We got on really well with the other families too which made the week even better.
I highly recommend this company.

We all had an excellent time with Greenworld. Everything was well-organised and any queries answered quickly. The activities were great: perfectly suited to our 15 and 12 year old boys. Having a group of families with similar age children was perfect to ensure everyone had a great holiday in a lovely country.
