Travel by train for your summer holiday
Croatia combines the easy-going nature of the Mediterranean with a rich history and impressive natural beauty, inviting visitors to enjoy a varied holiday.

Ancient buildings and lively old towns offer an insight into the country’s vibrant past. This makes Croatia a destination that feels both invigorating and relaxing.

Tips for an unforgettable trip to Croatia
In Croatia, you’ll find a mix of vibrant cities, long sun-soaked beaches and breathtaking natural scenery. In Split, the atmospheric Old Town centred around Diocletian’s Palace invites you to wander through a maze of narrow streets, historic landmarks and lively squares where it’s easy to linger a little longer. The city’s top sights are ideal for a varied walking tour, while the Riva Promenade and nearby beaches offer plenty of opportunities to slow down and relax. Meanwhile, Zagreb delights with its charming Old Town, the colourful Dolac Market, and a network of underground tunnels. Sweeping panoramic views from the Lotrščak Tower, along with a wealth of museums, galleries and cosy cafés, make Zagreb a wonderfully rounded destination.
