Itinerary

Show all

Welcome to Croatia! Meet your tour director and fellow travellers before your Croatian adventure begins. Enjoy your first evening in Zagreb, a vibrant capital where Central European heritage meets a youthful urban spirit. Stroll along the café-lined streets and take in the city's lively atmosphere.

After breakfast, take a guided walking tour through Zagreb's old districts, Gornji Grad and Kaptol. Discover the Gothic cathedral, colourful markets, palaces, and charming squares that define the city's character.

Spend the afternoon exploring at your own pace, visit museums, relax in Zrinjevac Park, or enjoy a coffee on bustling Tkalčićeva Street.

Leave the city behind and head to Plitvice Lakes National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Europe's most breathtaking natural wonders. Walk along wooden trails past 16 crystal lakes connected by countless waterfalls, surrounded by lush forests and the sound of flowing water.

After lunch, enjoy free time in the park before continuing to your hotel in the Plitvice area.

Travel to the coast and visit Zadar, once the capital of the first Croatian kingdom. Explore the Roman Forum, St. Donatus Church, and the fascinating Sea Organ. This architectural instrument plays melodies shaped by the wind and sea.

Continue to Trogir, a charming UNESCO-listed town filled with medieval palaces and stone alleys, before arriving in Split for the night.

Discover Split's old town, built around the ancient walls of Diocletian's Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visit St. Domnius Cathedral, the Golden Gate, and the lively Riva promenade lined with cafés and palm trees.

The afternoon is yours to enjoy the city's relaxed atmosphere, take a walk to Marjan Hill for panoramic views or unwind by the sea.

Journey south along the sparkling Adriatic coast to Dubrovnik, often called the "Pearl of the Adriatic." Walk through the old town's marble streets and see landmarks such as Pile Gate, the Franciscan Monastery and the elegant Rector's Palace.

Enjoy the afternoon exploring on your own or join an optional excursion to Lokrum Island, known for its botanical gardens and peaceful paths.

A full day at leisure in Dubrovnik. Stroll along the impressive city walls, relax by the clear blue sea or take a boat trip to the Elaphiti Islands. Alternatively, join an optional excursion to Mostar and Medjugorje, two remarkable sites in neighbouring Bosnia and Herzegovina.

In the evening, gather with your group for a farewell dinner to celebrate the unforgettable memories of your Croatian journey.

Free time until your transfer to the airport for your flight home. Depart with lasting impressions of Croatia's beauty, culture and warm hospitality.
