Arrive at Dubrovnik Airport and take a transfer to hotel. Relax and enjoy some free time. Dinner and overnight in Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik has been enlisted as UNESCO World Heritage for decades now and exploring it in a guided tour makes for a grand opening of your Croatian journey. Walking its wall-embraced Old Town is like taking a step back in time to when this lovely town was an independent Republic. Stop to explore a still-operating pharmacy from 1317, the seat of the former Republic government at the Rector’s Palace and the revered Cathedral before travelling to Split in the afternoon hours along the scenic Adriatic coast and the picturesque Neretva River delta. Dinner and overnight in Split.

The lively historic core of Split was once a one man’s retirement palace. The man was the Roman Emperor Diocletian and his modest home is today inhabited by 3000 people. In the vibrant, happening centre of Split the modern echoes against ancient stone walls. Your walking tour highlights the stunning landmarks like the theatrical open-air Peristyle, the Temple of Jupiter and the Cathedral of St. Dominus, the patron saint of Split. Next, continue to another UNESCO-listed jewel, the tiny but charming Trogir, where the Cathedral of St. Lawrence holds one of Croatia’s most remarkable portals, intricately carved by Master Radovan. Dinner and overnight in Zadar.

Despite a million people living here, Zagreb somehow manages to retain the cosy feel about it and you will best experience this wandering around the historic, fortified Upper Town. The place of legends, rebellions and witches burnt at stake, the Upper town is home of the Cathedral, St. Mark’s church with the colourful roof and several present-day government buildings. Spread out at its feet, the Lower town oozes a more modern, but still very continental air about it, with many highlights such as the Croatian National Theatre and the University. Departure transfer to Zagreb Airport.
