Experiential travel
Croatia abounds in natural and cultural diversity, and as such it represents an ideal vacation destination with an emphasis on virtually any topic. Here you can acquire experience and impressions which, in terms of their content, can be classified as a more specific form of tourism.
Easy-Going tours
Are you one of those people who don`t like to move around, but would rather stay in one place and explore only if you feel like it? Or would you like to see the country but “below the radar”, exploring for yourself whenever and whatever you like? Or to move from one place to another without much fuss, avoiding main tourist roads and locations?
Archaeological tours
Croatian territory in general is renowned for its rich historic heritage. Numerous cultures have left their trace here over the course of more than two millennia, allowing the local people to weave their threads into the fabric of the local ambience. Visiting and exploring its historical lacework represents a unique experience for any culture-lover. Having learned more about Croatia, you are bound to learn more about yourself…
Food & wine tours
Croatian gastronomy features diversity as its most important hallmark, which is completely logical considering its geopolitical history. Over the course of the centuries, all four sides of the world have poured their influence into the Croatian pot(s), incorporating it in the context of their era.
Self-drive tours
For the people who want a bit broader experience during their travel through Croatia, it would be a pity not to spend some quality time outside Croatia’s territory. Due to its unique geographical position and the shape of its borders, Croatia offers great possibilities for visiting its neighbouring countries’ attractions.
