As the hostile war activities ended in 1996, Croatia again became a very safe country for travelers. While a low crime rate makes it one of the safest places for visitors. Although a small country, Croatia has a rich variety of beautiful landscapes and preserved natural areas from mountains to plains, from rivers to the sea with a long and rich history.

Croatia is alive with well-preserved old towns, castles, palaces, monuments, and native architecture. Together with the tradition, folklore, art scenes, and music, Croatia is a unique and exotic place to discover. The industry is not big here and it has had little impact on the environment. Food is mostly organically grown and drinking water is of very good quality. Even water in rivers and wells is drinkable. Friendly, fun-loving people and their easy-going lifestyle will make your stay a very pleasant one.

The Adriatic coast is undoubtedly the most popular tourist destination

With one of the most indented coastlines in Europe and its 1,185 islands and islets, of which only 66 are inhabited. Continental Croatia, however, also abounds in beauty: it is a land of forests, rivers rich in fish, swift mountain streams and deep gorges of Gorski Kotar, and the magnificent Plitvice Lakes in Lika. It is a land of golden wheat fields, oak woods, and wide rivers of Slavonia and Baranja, a land of quaint little villages, romantic castles and manors, and picturesque rolling hills and vineyards of the Croatian Zagorje.

We invite you to discover and get to know Croatia, its mild climate, crystal clear, warm sea water, beautiful beaches, virgin nature, combined with rich history and cultural heritage, delicious cuisine and good wines, and above all, warm and friendly people.
