The Best Tours & Experiences in Croatia

Croatia packs a walled medieval coastline, a thousand-island archipelago, and a set of waterfall national parks into a country you can cross in a day. Most trips start in Dubrovnik, where the 2km circuit of the city walls looks down over terracotta roofs and the Adriatic, and guided walks of the Stradun fold in the Game of Thrones locations at Fort Lovrijenac and the Jesuit Staircase. The city also works as a base for day trips to Mostar and the Bay of Kotor.

Up the coast, Split is built inside a Roman emperor's retirement palace, and the classic day out is a speedboat run to the Blue Cave on Bisevo, Stiniva Cove on Vis, and a stop in Hvar town, where the Pakleni islands sit twenty minutes offshore. Inland, Krka's Skradinski Buk falls make an easy half-day from the city.

North, Zadar has the Sea Organ and the Kornati islands on its doorstep, while Zagreb pairs an Austro-Hungarian upper town with the shortest run down to the sixteen terraced lakes of Plitvice. Every tour we feature is Viator-verified, top-rated, and bookable with free cancellation.
