Adriatic Discovery – Slovenia, Croatia & Italy

Moments of relaxation are paired with immersive cultural experiences across this eight-day single-centre escape to Italy, Slovenia and Croatia’s finest Istrian cities.  

Embrace the diverse cultural influences and memorable coastal landscapes of three Istrian countries, Italy, Slovenia and Croatia, with a memorable break on the glorious Adriatic Coast. Starting with a flight to Venice, you’ll be introduced to the charming Slovenian resort town of Portorož, home to award-winning wellness centres fed by the Adriatic Sea and its nearby saltpans. A guided tour of Slovenia’s baroque capital, Ljubljana, follows ahead of a stop at the sprawling Postojna Caves for views of its magnificent rock features. You can then tailor your time in Slovenia with a border-crossing optional excursion into the Istrian countryside, taking in the fairytale towns of Grožnjan and Motovun.  

Mark the half-way point of your tour with a tour of Trieste, the ‘Vienna by the Sea’, and elegant Miramare Castle for a fascinating insight into Friuli’s Austrian heritage. Next, take in enchanting Lake Bled, which promises some of Slovenia’s most impressive scenic vistas, and enjoy enlightening stops in the surrounding towns. Round out your week-long escape with time to explore two Istrian gems, Pula, with its magnificent Roman landmarks, and Rovinj, a Venetian-inspired harbour town. Make the most of a few final moments of relaxation and tick any last experiences off your travel wish-list in Portorož before returning to the UK.
