We are planning a 2026 trip to Croatia for 5 people - 2 couples and a single adult. We want to visit Dubrovnik, Korcula, Hvar, Trogir, Plitvice Lages, Split, and Zagreb. We don't want to drive ourselves. Would we have enough time to explore places on a small boat cruise (40-50 people) and perhaps land tours, or would it be best to hire a private driver and make our our arrangements?
If you have recommendations for either, please share. Thank you.

It is not clear how much time you have available. I don't know anything about cruises (I think that most are at minimum a week), but you can easily travel between all of the coastal places by catamaran/ferry. You can also base in Split to see Trogir, Hvar. I'd stop in Korcula en route to Dubrovnik. See the Krilo and Jadrolinija websites for schedules. Where do you fly in/out? Public transport is Croatia is SO easy, no need to splash out unless you just want to.
