Imagine waking up to the sound of waterfalls cascading through emerald forests, then three days later, sipping local wine on a sun-drenched Dalmatian island as fishing boats bob lazily in the harbour. By the end of the week, you’re walking on ancient city walls above the Adriatic at golden hour. You wonder how one country packed this much beauty into one coastline. Croatia has a way of doing that to people. This 10-day journey is designed for those who want more than a holiday. Those who want to feel a place, not just photograph it. It begins where nature reigns supreme, in the mythical landscapes of Plitvice Lakes and the rolling hills of Istria. It sweeps south through Split, where Roman emperors once retired for good reason. It then spills out onto the islands. Hvar offers lavender-scented glamour. Korčula is where Marco Polo allegedly first opened his eyes to the world. It ends in Dubrovnik, the Pearl of the Adriatic, where terracotta rooftops tumble toward a sea so blue it almost feels fictional. Ten days. Three chapters. One Croatia you won't forget.

Begin your adventure in Croatia by exploring the natural beauty of Plitvice Lakes National Park. Wander through lush forests, marvel at cascading waterfalls, and cruise across crystal-clear lakes.

Venture towards the coast to experience the rich history and culture of Split. Explore Diocletian's Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, before sailing to the glamorous island of Hvar known for its lavender fields and vibrant nightlife.

Everything you've just read, the waterfalls at dawn, the lavender fields of Hvar, the Blue Cave at Vis, the city walls of Dubrovnik at golden hour, exists inside one carefully crafted journey. The Iconic Croatia: 10-Day Highlights itinerary was built for travellers who want to experience Croatia the right way. Not rushed. Not generic. Not a list of stops ticked off a map. But a journey that moves with intention, giving you enough time in each place to actually feel it, and enough variety across ten days to understand why Croatia gets under people's skin the way it does. It begins in the heart of the country, where nature is the main event, and ends at the edge of the Adriatic, where one of the most beautiful cities in the world waits to close out your trip in style. In between, there are islands, history, food, wine, and the kind of unhurried days that remind you what travel is actually for. Nine nights. Three unforgettable chapters. One Croatia that will stay with you long after you've landed back home. This itinerary is available now. Get in touch with Via Croatia to check dates, customise your experience, and secure your place.
