Top of the list is the UNESCO world heritage site of Diocletian’s Palace.
Day 2: Savor The Flavors Of Solta
Solta is an enchanting little island that is located in central Dalmatia. The charming ancient hamlets of Maslinica, Stomorska and Gornje Selo provide access to the quaint historic features of the island. To really experience authentic Croatia it’s necessary to sample the culinary delights. A visit to the Tvrdic honey farm gives you an opportunity to learn about the traditional ways in which Croatians make rich and sweet honey. On a tour of the family-run farm you can see how organic honey is made, taste the golden product, and also buy a few jars to take back home.
Day 3: Explore The Countryside
Croatia’s stunning countryside is best viewed off-road. Hire a car or let us organise a private tour guide. Head for the famous five springs of Cetina, Rumin, Oyrlia, Ruda and Grab. The protected and pristine water rich rivers and canyons are surrounded with imposing elevations, lush greenery and pretty little villages that you can explore. If you’re feeling adventurous you can try your hand at white water rafting or canyoning.
Day 4: Reconnect With Nature
Towering behind the splendid coastal views of the Makarska Riviera is the impressive Biokovo Mountain and the Biokovo National Park. This is the perfect pit stop for hikers and nature lovers who want to take time out to reconnect with nature. There are plenty of paths that wind up the hills and lead you to the olive groves, vineyards and fragrant pine forests. Take a break and enjoy a picnic lunch whilst admiring the breathtaking scenery and views all around you. The park is home to many beautiful and endemic plant species that demand your attention. The Kotisina Botanical Garden, situated nearby, is also worth visiting.
Day 5: Get The Adrenaline Pumping
A white water rafting experience in the Cetina River is an unforgettable joy ride that will definitely get your adrenaline pumping. A three-hour watersports adventure offers plenty of time for rafting in the protected areas of the awesome river canyon. The river boasts quiet areas along with second and third grade rapids that really test your rafting skills. Once you’ve had your fill of thrills you can relax and tuck into a delicious BBQ lunch on the riverbank.
