Croatia Travel Agent Advisor

Croatia, a breathtaking gem nestled along the Adriatic Sea, has become increasingly popular among adventure seekers and history buffs alike. The country's diverse landscape, combined with its rich cultural heritage, offers countless opportunities for explorations that will leave you eager for more. As a travel agent advisor for Croatia, I can’t wait to share the country’s wonderful history and attractions. Let's take a look at some of the top travel attractions in Croatia for both thrill-seekers and history enthusiasts alike. 1. Plitvice Lakes National Park Plitvice Lakes National Park is one of Croatia's most famous natural wonders and a UNESCO World Heritage site. This majestic park features 16 interconnected turquoise lakes surrounded by lush forests, cascading waterfalls, and hidden caves. Visitors can traverse the well-maintained wooden walkways and hiking trails that snake around the lakes, offering unparalleled views of nature's beauty at every turn. Adventure-lovers can also partake in activities such as rowing or cycling to further explore the park's delightful surroundings. 2. Dubrovnik Old Town Steeped in medieval history, Dubrovnik's Old Town is a must-visit destination for history buffs. With its well-preserved ancient city walls and stunning architecture, it’s no wonder Dubrovnik has become a hotspot for tourists and Game of Thrones fans alike.  Stroll along the Stradun, Dubrovnik's main thoroughfare, stopping to explore magnificent landmarks like the Rector's Palace, Sponza Palace, and the Franciscan Church and Monastery. For an unforgettable experience, walk atop the city walls to enjoy panoramic views of Dubrovnik and beyond. 3. Zlatni Rat Beach If you're looking for an adrenaline rush coupled with sun-soaked relaxation, Zlatni Rat Beach in Bol on the island of Brac is the place to be. Known as the "Golden Cape," this uniquely shaped pebble beach extends into the sea like a gleaming arrowhead beneath azure waters.  Windsurfing and paddle boarding are popular activities here, along with scuba diving and snorkeling in the crystal-clear Adriatic Sea. 4. Diocletian's Palace In the heart of Split lies the awe-inspiring Diocletian's Palace, a Roman Emperor's ancient home that now serves as the centerpiece of the bustling city.  Spanning across 30,000 square meters, visitors can wander through narrow streets, explore underground cellars, and marvel at iconic landmarks such as the Peristyle, St. Domnius Cathedral, and Temple of Jupiter. The palace blends history with modern-day life in a seamless and enchanting way. 5. Paklenica National Park For rock-climbing enthusiasts and hiking aficionados, Paklenica National Park offers an unparalleled experience. Situated at the base of the Velebit Mountain Range, this park boasts over 400 climbing routes and well-marked trails for all skill levels.  With its dramatic landscapes featuring steep cliffs, deep canyons, and dense forests, Paklenica promises a thrilling adventure over this part of the country’s stunning terrain. If you love the great outdoors and adventure, this is one place you’ll just have to visit. If you want to embark on a vacation to Europe that combines history with a fairytale atmosphere, you’ll want to plan a Croatia holiday.

He's my one and only travel agent
I found Philip online when I was planning my first trip to France. I'm so glad I did! He was so patient learning my interests and expectations. The vacation truly exceeded my expectations. He took great care picking locations, selecting the hotels and excursions. We had the most charming upscale inn in Paris, a fabulous view in Nice and pampering spa in Aix. Next, he made my solo trip to Ireland and Amsterdam easy and memorable. Everything spot on!

Terrific agent!
Thanks for planning our fantastic trip to Greece. We were overwhelmed with our choices after reading a mountain of travel books and online reviews. You were so patient helping us sort through all of our ideas. Your itinerary was perfect the way you combined the Greek Islands with the mainland. Your suggestions to include Meteora Delphi and Napllion were brilliant. Sue and Dave W, Portland, OR

The honeymoon we never had came true
Philip put together our long postponed honeymoon to Italy. Everything was flawless. He was easily accessible when we had one problem finding our airport transfer in Naples. The selection of upscale hotels and itinerary were unique and memorable. We love food and drink and he set us up with some great cooking classes. He'll be our agent for our anniversary travel.
