Day 03 Dubrovnik / Split, Croatia

Breakfast at the hotel.
Heading north along the Adriatic to Split, our goal is to explore the massive palace built by the 4th century Roman emperor Diocletian as his retirement home which is also on the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. We see Jupiter’s Temple, the Peristyle and the Cathedral as well as Split’s many Renaissance and Gothic structures. Over time the city has encroached into the corners and crannies of the palace; shopkeepers and tiny restaurants now make their home within its massive walls.

Walking through the natural splendor of the Plitvice Lakes National Park this afternoon, we explore the breathtaking scenery of this natural wonder of 16 terraced lakes surrounded by thickly wooded mountains and lush vegetation. Each of the falls is at a different elevation and feeds into the next through a series of spectacular cascades and frothing waterfalls.

Day 06 Bled, Slovenia

Breakfast at the hotel.
In the morning we drive to Slovenia’s capital, where we enjoy the tour of the city that is filled with churches and fin-de-siecle palaces – reminders of the town’s baroque Austro- Hungarian days. Ljubljana’s castle and Roman ruins speak of even earlier rulers. The charming old town nestled between the castle hill and the Ljubljanica River is reached by the Tromostovje “the triple bridge.” Here we stroll across the triple bridge and through the local market, offering typical Slovenian foods and everyday products; see City Hall, Robba’s Fountain and visit Ljubljana Castle. We also see the famous “Dragon Bridge” – the symbol of Ljubljana. In the afternoon, we return to Bled to tour this lake resort with included visit to the Castle, perched on the cliff high above the lake. In the evening, join your fellow travelers and Tour Director for a farewell dinner in Castle restaurant in Bled.
