TOUR GUIDE VS. TOUR LEADER
Tour Guide:
Often locals with intimate knowledge of an area, its culture, and history. Their role entails providing commentary, routing the tour, and seeing that people have a good time. They are a licensed, qualified expert who supplies specific information on the history, art, architecture and culture of the city/village/attraction where they are guiding the tour. The guide meets the group at the required place and leaves it at the end of the tour; they do not travel with the group.
 
Tour Leader:
An experienced person tasked with ensuring the smooth operation of tours, as well as providing practical support to passengers throughout the whole trip. Their role primarily includes assisting with accommodation, transportation between locations, and communication with tour guides at each stop. A tour leader may provide general guidance around a city or village and offer information on the place visited on the bus. However, they are not required to have specific art, architecture, or historical knowledge. They are not allowed to provide a guided tour or commentary of a city/village/attraction once there and, if caught doing so, can be fined.
 
Please note: Tour leaders/guides are not a standard inclusion in all travel offers. Tour leaders/guides will only be made available when required to enhance the experience of the destination featured.
 
CLIMATE & AVERAGE TEMPERATURES
Croatia
Spring is a lovely time to visit Croatia as the weather starts to warm up, and the landscapes become lush and green, temperatures are between 8°C and 21°C.
Summer is the peak tourist season in Croatia due to the warm and sunny weather, particularly along the Adriatic coast with temperatures ranging from 17°C to 30°C. September is considered one of the best times to visit Croatia, as the summer crowds start to thin out, and the weather remains warm and pleasant with temperatures between 16°C to 23°C. October sees decreasing temperatures, especially in the northern and interior regions. Coastal areas may still have mild temperatures between 11°C and 18°C.
 
Albania and Montenegro
The coastal areas experience a typical Mediterranean climate, with hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters. Summers, which usually last from June to September, are generally hot and dry, with average temperatures ranging from 25°C to 30°C (77°F to 86°F). During this time, the coastal regions receive little to no rainfall. During the shoulder seasons, Albania & Montenegro experience mild and pleasant weather. These seasons are generally considered the best time to visit the country for travellers who prefer avoiding the summer crowds and extreme temperatures.
