Dalmatia Adventure – The Journey for Culturists
A tour as cultural as it is adrenaline-rising, Dalmatia Adventure starts on the coastal city of Split, where you’ll explore the cellars of Diocletian’s 1,700-year-old palace and wander through its open-air markets for a taste of freshly caught fish or artisan cheese. Throughout your journey, you’ll raft down the Cetina river, sail to Hvar, explore the famous Blue Cave, a natural wonder that becomes bathed in silvery light as the sun peeks, and snorkel through secluded lagoons where dolphins are known to gather. Your journey ends in Bosnia, where you’ll visit Old Bridge in Mostar before spending a final night in the lively city of Dubrovnik. The 9-day journey starts at $2,995 per person.
Croatia & Slovenia Adventure – The Journey for Athletes
A tour especially designed for travelers who delight in testing their physical limits, “Croatia & Slovenia Adventure” takes athletes across three countries (Croatia, Slovenia and Bosnia), on foot, bike, kayak, canoe, raft and zip line. Climbing enthusiasts will appreciate a new destination for deep water soloing at the Kasjuni cliffs off Split, where they can scale the limestone walls several feet above emerald waters with only their skill and stamina to keep them from falling in. Daredevils can also cliff jump from up to 33 feet high. The tour also includes two days of cycling through Marjan Park Forest and Rovinj, sea kayaking through the Elaphite Islands and canoeing down the Trebizat river. The journey continues through Slovenia’s Pastojna caves and ends with the Julian Alps, where you’ll hike into the world of herdsmen and their rustic cottages. The 12-day journey starts at $4,595 per person.
Breathtaking Croatia- The Journey for Nature Lovers
An adventure for anyone who has ever dreamed of jumping through waterfalls into emerald waters, exploring underground caves, or river rafting amidst rocky canyons, Breathtaking Croatia encompasses all of those experiences and more, including tours of coastal Dubrovnik and cosmopolitan Zagreb. You’ll stroll through the other-worldly beauty of Plitvice Lakes National Park, swim beneath the waterfalls of Krka National Park and sea kayak through the Paklinksi Islands. Along the way, you’ll taste oysters fresh from the sea, sample traditional Croatian specialties at the cafes known only to locals and meet local wine, cheese and prosciutto producers in open-air markets. The 12-day tour starts at $3,985 per person.
