02 — Who We Are
Croatia Luxury Travel Specialist
Custom luxury itineraries composed of discovery, culture & relaxed elegance
Our Destination Specialists are led by Wanda S. Radetti — the award-winning, internationally recognised pioneer of Croatian luxury travel. For more than 30 years we have designed bespoke journeys through Croatia and the surrounding region that travelers come home calling “A Trip of a Lifetime!”
Every itinerary is experience-based and immersive, built for real engagement with local people and culture — scenic beauty, historical context, gastronomic delight, and the quality of service this company has become known for.
Our definition of luxury goes beyond five-star hotels and fine dining. It lives in the care each traveler is shown, and in the individual consideration given to every single journey.

Awards & Accolades
World’s Top Destination Specialist for Croatia since 2006
A-List Destination Specialist for Croatia & Slovenia since 2019
When Wanda S. Radetti began designing and marketing five-star travel to Croatia in 1994, the national press called her approach “avant-garde.” “Premature” would have been more accurate. Croatia is now, unambiguously, a world-class travel destination.
Wanda S. Radetti has had the distinct honor of being named World Top Destination Specialist for Croatia by Condé Nast Traveler every year since 2006. In 2020 she was awarded a place on Travel + Leisure’s annual A-List, which showcases the 148 top agents and tour operators in the business.

Meet Our Founder and President
Meet Wanda and the TCJ Team“I like to think of myself and my team as the “Caretakers of Wonder,” but I know that I am a designer of travel experiences. I craft and generate itineraries that are tailor designed to envelope our travelers in personal experiences that fulfill their special desires. The experiences available to our travelers are the result of relationships that have been continuously honed over the last three decades. I, along with my team, have developed and nurtured personal relationships with the people caring for our travelers, from the hotel general managers, to the housekeeper and the waiter that will serve them breakfast in the morning, to the professional chauffeurs that will respond to their curiosities when they wish to go off-the-beaten paths.”

We then boarded a beautiful Catamaran,…”
“Hello Tia, The trip was awesome. The accommodations are all stellar. Would definitely want to stay in them again if we return to Croatia. Among our guides, Lea in Split was an 11 on a scale of 1 to 10. Leia in Korcula was extremely knowledgable, but not quite as personable as Lea. Nikola in Dubrovnik was knowledgable but appeared to be suffering from end of the…”
