Croatia is hip and trending — it’s the new holiday hot spot for celebrities. It has an impressive ancient and medieval cultural heritage, yet it also has very cool shops (clothing, accessories, leather goods, gourmet stores). You’ll enjoy unique cuisine with Mediterranean and Italian influences. Its grape growing and winemaking practices are some of the oldest in Europe.
The Adriatic Sea
Sailing between the lush green islands and visiting remote villages is what makes us appreciate the beauty of this place.
Plitvice Lakes National Park
We can’t get enough of the picturesque trails, stunning waterfalls and crystal clear lakes.
Dubrovnik City Walls
Strolling the old city walls and climbing to the top of Minceta Fortress feels as if walking above the city.
