Croatia

We visited Croatia in 2016 (see map), flying to Zagreb and then picking up a hire car to drive to the former Roman towns of Pula, Rovinj and Porec*. We then visited the medieval hilltop town of Motovun before driving to the stunning Plitvice Lakes*. From there we drove down the coast, visiting Zadar, Trogir*, Split* (built on Emperor Diocletian's Palace) and Dubrovnik* (the former seat of the Ragusa Republic). Finally we visited Korcula, before dropping off the hire car and flying home. A beautiful and historic country, with many stunning sights! (* = UNESCO World Heritage Site)
