some of our happy clients
Hi Michael and Ryan,
Thank you to you and your team for all your hard work and efforts in Dubrovnik. We have had some tremendous feedback and it is fair to say everyone has contributed towards delivering a very successful event and you and your guys certainly played your part.
Without a doubt Dubrovnik contributed to the success. The destination worked perfectly and from the moment people arrived at the airport to the moment they left they could not be affected by the ambience and beauty.
Your staff worked extremely well with our team and their service levels were of a high standard. We also found all the hotel and Lacroma staff most welcoming and helpful.
We were impressed and I am sure it will not be long before we are recommending Dubrovnik to more of our clients.
Mark Saxby, Sales and Marketing Director | WorldEvents
Land Rover are an adventure brand; a premium brand. We pride ourselves on offering unique events to destinations that can offer once in a lifetime experiences, varied terrain & 5 star quality. In developing countries such as Croatia & Montenegro, organizing events can be very challenging. Thanks to Global Connect obstacles were seen as opportunities and your knowledge of the country & your connections with the relevant people ensured that our incentive programmes were a huge success. Thank-you!
Sam Adams, Experience & Events Manager | Land Rover UK
Dear Maro,
I just wanted to say again..thank you so much for all your hard work in making our trip so successful. All the guests have said it was the best event they have attended and how much they enjoyed it. You and Diana made the event flow very well and were very engaging with all the guests. All the activities were very well organised and ensured that the guests had a great time. Please give my best to Diana and keep in touch.

Thank you all for your excellent logistical and interpersonal skills, all that helps with the whole experience of the event and we were all able to have a good laugh at each others expense, a lovely exchange of nationalities gave that feel.
Having met you all, I knew that I could put my trust in you that a great job would be done and I was not disappointed, thank you personally from the bottom of my heart, for all your hard work which I know from experience, that it is, you took most of the burden off myself, so that I could relax too knowing that everything would work out perfectly. It has been a real pleasure to work with you all - God Bless

The event was much appreciated by the participants (I received many very positive reactions) and I am sure that there are various colleagues that will certainly consider Dubrovnik/Global Connect for a next meeting.
Transportation from airport to Hotel was perfect: most people had checked-in within an hour after arrival and this was much appreciated. Of course the City of Dubrovnik is beautiful, so the people also enjoyed that a lot and they took advantage of the various offers provided to do tours on their free afternoon.
I would like to thank you Ryan, the other people from Global Connect, and the (very friendly!) people at Hotel Petka for making this event a real success.
All the best,

Dear Maro + all at Global Connect
What can I say other than a huge thank you for everything you have done to make this group such a success. Your attention to detail, your willingness to go above and beyond is truly fantastic! You have such an engaging team here in Dubrovnik and we have really enjoyed working with you! Please pass on my thanks to all your suppliers and your very wonderful team members.
Best regards.

Dear Ryan
After these 2 unforgettable days in Dubrovnik, I'd like to thank you as well as the whole Global Connect Team in my name but also in the name of all participants as you did a great job !
Everything went well, including the weather, which was my biggest worry. We all enjoyed the first day on the sea ! This was absolutely fantastic ! We all agree : the Island Recon Mission is an excellent activity to discover the Croatian coast. The mixture of challenge, fun, sun and time at leisure was perfect.
The second day program was also good balanced, with an interesting guided tour of the Old Town, a wine tasting in a magnificent palace, a very fine lunch on a private terrace and again some time at leisure.
We all would have stayed much longer ... Dubrovnik enchanted us, and I'm sure that several participants will come back soon with their family.
Once again THANK YOU for everything.
Marie-Laure Aellen, Event Manager | Vaudoise Assurances
Global Connect has a great dedication to their work and due to their professionalism and level of quality, we at Off Piste trust them to help us organize VIP events in the whole region of Croatia.
Odd Sorli, Event Manager | Off Piste AS
Dear Ryan, Maro and the team,
I wanted to write you to thank you all for the wonderful organisation of the Young President's Organisation (YPO) visit to Dubrovnik in September. As you know we came from spending 3 days in Rome and had a papal audience, so Dubrovnik was always going to be a hard act to maintain the buzz. You and your whole team did a superb job and your efficiency and friendliness was admired and remarked upon by all. Well done and thank you again. Best wishes,
Rumi Verjee, Chairman | Thomas Goode and Co
Thank you GC team for helping us achieve a successful game launch for Sony Playstation in a logistically difficult fortress location in Dubrovnik. We got through some unforeseen situations to come out successful in the end, with a happy client to show for it! I look forward to working with you on future projects and events.
Jane Hansom, Director | Sponge Worldwide Ltd.
Thank you very much for organising a great day for us in Split this week. Diana was a brilliant host - she made sure that everything went really smoothly and nothing was too much trouble. Of course she was also super-friendly and made us feel very welcome in Croatia! Our guests had a really wonderful time in Split and we loved the country, the food (the restaurants were lovely!) and of course the beautiful scenery.
Many thanks again! I would very readily recommend your agency to other people that are planning a trip to Croatia.
Helen Bainbridge, Media Relations Officer | Skoda
Dear Michael and all the team at Global Connect,
We want to thank you for your support and patience during the build up, the event week and of course the post event clean up process, it was invaluable to us and we really appreciate your flexibility and your positive approach. This part of the rally was a real success and created a great sense of excitement among our participants and we could not have done it without your first class service. You were both flexible to our needs and extremely professional throughout.
Once again we have enjoyed working with you and hope that we can work together in the future should the opportunity arise.
Emma Lane, Event Manager | Carbon Black Ltd
Ryan and Michael, thank you so much for your efforts on the Reuters TRM event bid. We could not get over how professional your services were and how high the quality of your proposals. We look forward to working with you down the track.
Penny Lion, General Manager | Ci Events
I worked with Global connect on an event in June for a client's graduation trip for 160 people. I initially contacted Global connect in April and received an immediate response from Ryan advising me he was onto it. Due to the late notice of the request and the size of the group, I was almost certain I would not be able to find anywhere decent to accommodate them. However, Ryan managed to come up with a fantastic option on the up-and-coming island of Hvar. Although it was over budget, my client was so impressed with the proposal they decided to go with it over the other 3 destinations put forward.
In the time between the group agreeing on Hvar and the actual event, there were many obstacles, and I was relived to find it was never too much trouble for Global Connect - they came up with a solution for everything and I always felt my event was in good hands. From delays on payments and changing numbers, to last minute notice that the original hotel choice would not be open in time! On top of this, they took it upon themselves to go to Hvar and welcome the group on arrival even though the tight budget meant they were not paid for this.
I would happily recommend anyone planning an event in Croatia to contact Global connect to run their event. They have all the right connections, a great attitude and fantastic service - keep up the good work guys!
James Catterall | fCM Travel
From start to finish the attention to detail, the customer service and the ability to react to change is always fantastic. Valuable partners in ensuring the events we run with them are of a high quality. Slick professional and knowledgeable, an invaluable team!
Simon Fookes | The MotivAction Group plc
Global Connect is truly that, a fantastic way to connect people from anywhere to Croatia.
We truly enjoyed our sail from Split to Hvar to Korcula. Especially the wonderful hotel Hvar. You really put it all together perfectly. Dubrovnik was a wonderful experience that we wont soon forget. Thank you again for planning and executing such a dream vacation.
