About Us

Written by

Welcome to Total Croatia News, the latest (and most ambitious) member of the Total family. 

The Total Project started in October 2011, when British writer Paul Bradbury decided to try and improve the information service on Croatia's premier island of Hvar. With five tourist boards on the island who rarely spoke to each other, Bradbury's guidebook, Hvar: An Insider's Guide was an attempt to unite the island's information. The book was followed by a website with the same ideal, and Total Hvar has since become the premier source of information about the island, with more than 7,000 articles about all aspects of life there.

In November 2012, in an attempt to address the poor information available in English about the Dalmatian capital, Total Split was founded, with accompanying guidebook, Split: An Insider's Guide (co-written with Mila Hvilshoj), and the work of both sites was recognised at the National Society of Journalists in December 2014, as Bradbury won the FIJET 2014 Marco Polo Award for best international promotion of Croatia. 

In the first official Total partnership, the Central Dalmatia Tourist Board, local tourist boards of Zagora and the Ministry of Tourism helped found Total Inland Dalmatia in late 2013 thereby bringing the rich potential of this fascinating region under one roof in English for the first time. The first international website, Total Munich will start in earnest after the 2015 season. 

And then Total Croatia News was born...

The majority of Total projects sadly exist without any official funding (something we would be happy to change), and so we are reliant on private funding to exist and evolve. 

We have various advertising packages on offer, from straight banner advertising, to sponsored stories. Please contact us on This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. for more information.
