Tailor-made Croatia vacations shaped around your passions

From wine and oyster tastings to boat and bike tours, kayaking to remote islands, exploring ancient palaces, and hiking through forested national parks laced with waterfalls, Croatia offers a wide range of experiences for the visitor. Explore Croatia’s rich Roman, Venetian, Napoleonic and Viennese past in its cities and towns or laze on sleepy islands where the pebble beaches are lapped by the clearest of seas.

You could take a guided tour through the storied streets of Split’s Roman masterpiece the Diocletian Palace, enjoy fresh seafood with views over the Adriatic, discover Game of Thrones locations in Dubrovnik, or escape to one of Croatia’s thousand or so islands and explore honey farms, olive groves and wineries. Jump on and off ferries on an island-hopping adventure, kayak around the Palenki Islands discovering hidden coves and bays, or just stay put and lose yourself in a good book as you sip a cocktail by the pool.

Croatia’s rich architectural heritage, sun-drenched islands, and historic cities provide a wide range of places to stay from sleek, urban hideaways to waterfront resorts, and secluded villas. Soak up the country’s history at a 16th-century palace in Dubrovnik or a waterfront hotel on the island of Brač.

Enjoy contemporary style and facilities at a designer hotel set in the forests of Hvar or at the rustic-chic lodges in Plitviče Lakes National Park, or combine lavish styling with timeless charm at an Art-Deco-era hotel in Zagreb. Take a look at our collection of places to stay in Croatia for some ideas.

Whether you visit Croatia’s historic cities, sun-soaked islands, or lush national parks, you’ll be spoiled for choice for places to go. A relic of ancient Rome, Diocletian’s Palace sits in the heart of Split, its narrow lanes still teeming with life almost two thousand years after it was built.

In Dubrovnik, Baroque churches and ornate townhouses flank the marble streets in this walled city-state, while in Rovinj, steep, cobblestone lanes are lined with ornate Venetian palazzi. Take your pick of the islands from glitzy Hvar to artistic Korčula, explore Croatia’s gastronomic treats in Istria, or wander along boardwalks through lush forest in a landscape laced with tumbling waterfalls and clear green pools.
