Grand Tour of Croatia
Escorted Coach Tours
Croatia has long been regarded as one
of the most beautiful countries in
Europe, and with its Adriatic coastline,
national parks, ancient towns and and
many UNESCO World Heritage Sites, there
is much on offer for its visitors.
The Grand Tour of Croatia is one of
great contrasts. Visit the wonderful
cities of Mostar and Sarajevo in Bosnia
and Herzegovina, where you will discover
medieval, Ottoman architecture and
culture. In Croatia, immerse yourself
in history in the towns of Osijek and
Djakovo, as well as the capital city
Zagreb, with its fortified Upper Town. Breathtaking scenery awaits you at the bewitching Plitvice Lakes before taking in the culture of Zadar and Split. Round off your trip with a stay in the coastal town of Dubrovnik, with its rich and colourful past, Mediterranean feel and superb cuisine.
