Croatian Road Trip

After their overnight flight connecting in Frankfurt, our clients arrived in Dubrovnik where they checked into their hotel.

Uncover 1,400 years of history layered within Dubrovnik's old town on this tour that earns 5-star reviews from travelers. The UNESCO World Heritage site is rich with hidden gems and curious architecture that can be easy to overlook, but a guide’s expert commentary helps you appreciate landmarks like Onofrio’s Fountain, the Franciscan Monastery, and the famous city walls for an ideal introduction to Dubrovnik.

Once you’ve seen Dubrovnik, expand your Dalmatian Coast sightseeing with a day-long cruise to the Elafiti Islands. A friendly skipper and crew ferries you to the islands of Kolocep, Lopud, and Šipan, anchoring at each port for swimming, beach time, or strolling through charming Croatian villages like Sudurad. A delicious lunch served on board and pickup from Dubrovnik hotels help make it a stress-free day on the water.

The top stops along the way from Dubrovnik to Split (with short detours) are Diocletian's Palace, Mostar Old Bridge Viewpoint, and Zlatni Rat Beach Hotel. Other popular stops include Kravica Waterfall, Mljet, and Path to Spanish Fortress. This 235km drive takes approximately 3 hours.

The heart of Split is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Diocletian palace. Although it was built in Roman times, it is still a place where people live, do business and hang around. Narrow streets of the castle are filled with unsurpassable charm and beauty. Diocletian Palace is an ancient yet vivacious and pulsating heart of the city, which is very uncommon. Below the Palace is Riva, palm-lined seafront promenade, world-famous for its beauty, lovely historic buildings, and zen-inducing overlook at the Adriatic sea.

Popular sights on the drive from Split to Slunj include Plitvice Lakes National Park, Zadar, Trogir, and Sibenik and top places to visit like Caves of Barac and Great Waterfall, or the ever-popular Velebit activities.This 288km drive takes approximately 3 1/2 hours.

Slunj is a town in the mountainous part of Central Croatia, located along the important North-South route to the Adriatic Sea between Karlovac and Plitvice Lakes National Park, on the meeting of the rivers Korana and Slunjcica.

Along the way visit Samobor Castle, a medieval fortress on a forested hilltop overlooking Samobor town & surrounding peaks. This 104km drive takes approximately 1 1/2 hours.

During summers, the right spot to hang out in is the Jarun Lake, which is host to a lot of activities during peak tourist season. You can go rowing, kayaking, cycling, and skateboarding, or running. And when you’ve had enough of sports, take some time to sit in one of the numerous bars around the lake. Join Croatians in coffee drinking ritual and relaxed mingling to experience the authentic Zagreb lifestyle.
