Itinerary

Upon arrival in Zagreb, the capital of Croatia, meet your driver at the exit of the arrival area and head to your centrally located hotel in a private, comfortable vehicle. The rest of the day is at your leisure - take time to recover from the long-haul flight or head out to explore the city at your own pace.

  • Zagreb

After breakfast, depart for the Plitvice Lakes National Park, just a two-hour drive from Zagreb.

A local guide will greet you here and lead you on an immersive journey through the park's natural wonders. Get ready to be captivated by the 16 interconnected lakes that flash in various colors from emerald to turquoise, deep blue to soft gray, depending on multiple factors.

After soaking in nature's wonder, proceed to your hotel in Zadar via another two-hour drive. As the night falls, you can stroll along the scenic seaside promenade, taking in the local ambiance, accompanied by the hauntingly beautiful sounds of the Sea Organ, played in rhythm with the waves.

  • Zadar

Wake up early to enjoy the Sea Organ play again if you want, before heading to Sibenik.

Spend half a day discovering this old Croatian city on the Adriatic coast with a local guide. Stroll through its remarkable historic center, where tall stone houses, centuries-old churches and monasteries, narrow winding streets, hidden passageways, and remnants of the city walls come together to create a romantic, timeless Mediterranean atmosphere. Visit the magnificent Cathedral of St. James, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a masterpiece of Renaissance architecture.

In the afternoon, continue your journey towards Split.

  • B
  • Split

Today is left for you to explore this city at your own pace.

The city of Split, with a long history of more than 1700 years, was developed around the Roman emperor Diocletian's Palace from the very beginning. You may immerse yourself in the center of its old town, listed as a World Heritage Site, visit the numerous museums and art galleries with a large number of valuable collections, or just stroll casually along the seashore, feeling the breeze from the Adriatic Sea.

  • Split

After breakfast, head to Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Once in Mostar, full of medieval Bosnian artistic style, enjoy a guided walking tour around its vibrant old bazaar to experience the local lifestyle. If traveling in summer, you may have a chance to see the crazy tradition - jumping from the 20-meter-high old bridge into the crystal-clear Neretva River.

In the afternoon, proceed to Dubrovnik for the night.

  • B
  • Dubrovnik

A full-day tour to Perast and Kotor in Montenegro. A scenic drive across the Croatian border brings you to the beautiful Bay of Kotor. Enjoy a boat ride to Our Lady of the Rocks, an artificial islet off the coast of Perast, and its church. After a short stop at the historical Perast, head to Kotor, where you can witness not only the city's architecture, obviously influenced by Venetian culture, but also the imposing natural landscape. Return to Dubrovnik.

  • B
  • Dubrovnik

This morning, meet your guide and start a walking tour through the old town for around 2 hours. During the trip, you will discover Stradun Square, St. John's Fortress, Church of St. Ignatius of Loyola, etc. After coming out, separate from your guide at Dubrovnik Cable Car Station, then ascend alone to the top of Mount Srd for a breathtaking view of the entire city.

Afterward, descend and transfer back to the hotel. The rest of the day is yours to explore the city on your own. You could explore other parts of Dubrovnik, such as the city walls, Dubrovnik Cathedral, Lovrijenac Fort, and Stradun at your own pace.
