Local travel agency in Croatia
Breathe in Travel, your local agency based in Prishtinë.
Our story
Breathe in Travel was born from a long partnership with the Balkans, this mosaic of countries where every valley tells a story and where hospitality remains a true art of living. Croatia is one of its natural gateways, between the Adriatic, the Dinaric mountains and stone-built cities.
The agency was founded in 2016, following a foundational trip taken two years earlier through Kosovo, North Macedonia and Albania. From this first itinerary came the desire to showcase an undervisited region in a different way, by relying on local partners and a lasting presence on the ground. The Croatia office is based in Zagreb, from where tailor-made circuits, guided stays and independent trips across Croatia and neighbouring countries are coordinated.
The agency was founded by Quentin and Alan, two tourism graduates from Brittany. In Zagreb, Louis now runs the Croatie office: he welcomes travelers, designs itineraries and maintains relationships with English-speaking guides, hoteliers and service providers across the Dalmatian coast, Istria and the inland regions.
Here, we don't reproduce programs. We build trips that look like you.
Breathe in Travel is a member of the Nomadays collective. This partnership allows you to benefit from direct coordination with a local team based in Zagreb, while enjoying secure booking in France: payment in euros, fund protection, APST guarantee and compliance with French tourism law. You thus enjoy the best of both worlds: the proximity of an on-site team and the strength of a protective legal framework.
Croatia first captivated me on a family trip, then it became a place I truly anchored myself to. What I love sharing is that feeling of a country that's both close by, radiant, and full of subtle depth.
— Louis, Croatian immersion creator

« Croatia first captivated me during a family trip, then became a place I truly belong. What I love to share is that sense of a country that feels both accessible, radiant, and full of subtle contrasts. »
Clara
Croatie escape architect
« La Croatie est mon véritable pays coup de cœur, tant pour la beauté de ses paysages que pour son art de vivre. Entre mer turquoise, villages de pierre et douceur méditerranéenne, c’est une destination dépaysante qui invite à ralentir et à s’émerveiller. »

Our local commitment
Traveling to Croatia means also contributing to the preservation of its landscapes, heritage and traditions, while supporting local communities.
Direct ground partners
English-speaking guides, hoteliers and drivers paid directly without intermediaries, from the Dalmatian coast to Istria and Zagreb.
Encounters in the hinterland
Stays with local families in Lika, Zagorje or the island of Cres, away from the seasonal crowds of Dubrovnik and Split.
Adriatic and preserved parks
Limited itineraries in small groups to Plitvice, Krka or Mljet, outside peak season when possible, to reduce overcrowding.
Dalmatian expertise passed down
Workshops with fishermen from Vis, Istrian olive growers and luthiers from Zagreb, supporting crafts threatened by mass tourism.
Découverte de régions moins fréquentées
Nous développons des itinéraires dans des territoires comme le Gorski Kotar, afin de faire découvrir une Croatie plus confidentielle et de réduire la pression touristique sur les sites très fréquentés.
Mobilité plus responsable
Nous encourageons les alternatives aux transports motorisés lorsque cela est possible, notamment grâce à des excursions à vélo électrique dans l'arrière-pays de l'Istrie.
Préservation du patrimoine local
Nous contribuons à la protection du patrimoine historique et culturel croate, tout en encourageant des visites respectueuses des traditions et des lieux de vie des habitants.
Soutien aux initiatives environnementales
Nous consacrons une partie de notre temps à des initiatives locales, comme l'entretien de sentiers de randonnée et la création de panneaux d'information dans les espaces naturels protégés.

Frequently asked questions about the agency
Do you still have questions? Here are the most frequently asked questions about how our agency works.
Breathe in Travel designs your trip directly in Croatia, with advisors who know the ground daily. You avoid intermediaries, gain in responsiveness and benefit from advice on genuinely lived experiences — no standardized marketing catalog.
Plan ideally 2 to 3 months before departure during peak seasons (hotels and guides are scarcer), 1 month is enough for quieter seasons. For last-minute departures, get in touch with us: we'll honestly tell you if we can put together a quality trip within the timeframe.
Yes, 7 days a week throughout your stay. You'll receive a local WhatsApp number + a dedicated emergency contact. Our on-site team can assist within hours in case of unexpected events (cancelled flight, illness, weather changes).
Your payments are 100% protected by the Professional Solidarity Association for Tourism. If a service provider (hotel, transport, etc.) or the agency fails, your funds are refunded. This is a mandatory guarantee for any French travel agency — Nomadays benefits from it across its entire network.
Yes, as much as possible. Changes made more than 30 days before departure are generally free of charge (excluding hotel rate differences). As your departure approaches, some bookings become less flexible — we always inform you of your options before confirmation.
Payment is made in full in France, in euros, with Nomadays — secured by credit card or bank transfer. You have no payments to make in Croatia: everything is pre-arranged (accommodations, transfers, guides, activities). You just need to budget for meals outside the itinerary and personal purchases.
