Why Croatia?
It's the Pearl of the Adriatic, a Game of Thrones filming location, and quickly growing in popularity among world travelers. Croatia offers travelers diversity with history, culture, nature, festivals, food and wine. Walk the historical cities of Dubrovnik and Zagreb, Split and Zadar. Commune with nature at 8 national parks.
The 1244 islands off the coast makes Croatia perfect for island hopping aboard a yacht. Cultural and historical trips can focus on UNESCO sites including the Cathedral of Saint James, Trogir, Split and the Palace of Diocletian, Plitvice Lakes National Park, the Old City of Dubrovnik, the Euphrasian Basilica in Porec. Food and wine tours will feature the regional and varied Mediterrean and Austro-Hungarian-influenced cuisines, fresh seafood, excellent olive oils, meats and cheeses.
Croatia’s shoreline and numerous islands enjoy the majority of the Adriatic coastline. The narrow Dinara Mountain Range separates the country’s Mediterranean region from its central European continental part, which spans from the easterly edges of the Alps in the North-West to the shores of the Danube in the East, encompassing the southern part of the fertile Pannonian lowlands.
The majority of Croatian mountains belong to the Dinaric Alps (which extend from the border of Slovenia to Montenegro). The Dinaric mountain range in Croatia is famous worldwide for being a classical example of deep karst. Although there are mountains in Croatia, it is the only country in the South-Eastern Europe without a peak above 6561ft.
The Croatian coast is located between the Dinaric Alps to the east and the Adriatic Sea to the west and has 1,100 miles (1,800 km) of coastline. One of the striking characteristics of the Croatian coast is that it has a total of 1,244 islands, islets, rocks and reefs.
Overall the trip was planned to perfection. We were late in our planning and our agent worked very hard to find us an itinerary that was complete and varied and placed us in interesting and wonderful hotels. Each transfer, driver and guide were on time and courteous. The hotels were prepared for us in every way and welcomed us professionally and each person in the hotel was well trained/prepared for our visit.
A weather app is just another resource available to travelers that might have been previously for home use only.
