The Kornati National Park is a delight for any lover of unspoilt nature, limpid waters and tranquillity. Linger in a coffee shop and stare out at the blue horizon

Split

With its seafront cafés and ancient alleyways, shouting stallholders and travellers on the move, bustling, exuberant Split is one of Croatia’s and the Mediterranean’s most exciting cities that you visit on Croatia tours. It’s easy to see this feeling when you walk around the place. However, it also has a unique historical heritage, having grown out of the palace built here by the Roman Emperor Diocletian in 295AD. The palace remains Split’s central ingredient, gradually transformed into a warren of houses, tenements, churches and chapels by the various peoples who came to live here after Diocletian’s successors.

Zagreb

A trip to Croatia is not perfect if you do not visit Zagreb, the capital. See its key sights such as the Cathedral, the main Ban Jelačič square, the open market, the lively Tkalčič street. It is a lovely city to spend at least the weekend in. We recommend an evening stroll through the city’s vibrant streets with numerous cafes and restaurants inviting you to sit down and relax. The city is also full of alternative spots and is well known for its street art scene.
