What to know before you go
POPULATION
Croatia is home to around 3.8 million people, most of whom live along its spectacular Adriatic coastline and in historic inland cities. While its capital draws many visitors, coastal hubs like Dubrovnik swell with life in the summer months.
CAPITAL
Elegant and energetic, Zagreb combines Roman and medieval roots with buzzy street art, dance, and music scenes. The city is Croatia’s political and cultural heart.
CULTURAL QUICK TAKE
Croatian culture blends the best of Europe’s crossroads—Mediterranean ease, Slavic spirit, and a reverence for history—into something vivid and welcoming. And the best way to meet and mingle? Partake in Croatia’s beloved ritual of sipping kava, or coffee. To do it like the locals, sit and stay a while.
WHAT TO GO FOR
In one trip, you can wander through walled cities, swim in Mediterranean coves, glide past evergreen forests, and savor food that blends Central European heartiness with sun-soaked coastal flavors. Our Croatia tours are like having the best of the continent distilled into one vivid, unforgettable locale.
UNIQUE EXPERIENCES ON TOUR
