Sample Croatian wines grown in the mountains of the Peljesac peninsula, and taste some of the world’s best oysters in Ston.
Visit iconic Croatian cities Split and Dubrovnik, and island hop out to Brac and Korcula, where you can lounge on beaches and enjoy island living.

Is this trip right for you?
The cuisine of Croatia includes a lot of meat and seafood. For vegetarians and vegans, we recommend reviewing the itinerary and inclusions to ensure that you will be able to fully participate and enjoy this trip. We also have many other trips to Croatia which can accommodate a range of dietary requirements.
The Croatian coast is very hilly and mountainous and stairs are commonplace. You will have to be able to easily lift your luggage and carry it up and down stairs and inclines, so packing light is recommended. The cobblestone streets become very slippery when wet. Some people may find Croatia's topography very demanding.
Summer temperatures can reach 40C/105F or higher in some areas, so it's important to use sun protection, wear layers to combat the heat and drink plenty of water. Please carefully consider the time of the year you wish to travel and your suitability to that season.
Itinerary
Indulge in local wines, handmade pasta and some of the world’s best seafood
The Dalmatian coast is home to some of the finest fresh produce and seafood in the world, and this six-day trip takes you through all the best samples. Travelling through southern Croatia, you’ll taste your way from Split to Dubrovnik, with a fair share of island hopping as you go. Visit the region's largest olive grove and sample the oils, marmalades and tapenades created here. Taste local delicacies, from hand-rolled pasta to sugary walnut cakes and indulge in plates of fresh seafood, including some of the finest oysters in the world, harvested fresh and delivered straight to your plate. With a local leader who knows all the best spots, you can enjoy all the flavours Croatia has to offer, with the backdrop of stunning, historic cities that sit on the edge of the Adriatic Sea.

Croatia is awesome to visit. It has gorgeous views, breathtaking scenery, lovely food, wine and olives, and nice people! The tour included comfortable and clean accommodation. Our guide gave us an orientation walk around the old city of Dubrovnik so we could buy our pass the next day and explore without getting lost. The tour leader shared amazing stories and insights as we travelled. It was an amazing trip.
