Tony and his team of specialists have travelled the world, probably many times over, and what they don’t know about beautiful destinations is not worth knowing!
This time we wanted to know about Dubrovnik, Montenegro and The Dalmatian Riviera. Here’s what we found out.
Dubrovnik
Around dreamy Dubrovnik and its neighbours, days of sightseeing and island-hopping adventures give way to evenings of waterfront wining and dining. Taking centre stage is Dubrovnik’s swoon-worthy Old Town, with its network of ancient alleys, pretty piazzas and terracotta rooftops all wrapped up in grand stone walls. But out of town, secluded coves, fragrant pine forests and handsome harbours are ripe for exploring. And that’s before we get started on the emerald islands – each one with its own standout scenery, alongside plenty of culture and lots of local cuisine.
Fancy venturing further afield? Day trips to Montenegro and Bosnia are on the cards.
Montenegro
Bordered by Bosnia and Herzegovina and with Croatia close by, Montenegro is a lush Balkan country with rugged looks and a swish side too. Fly directly into Tivat Airport with Jet2 from many regional airports and you’ll unlock history, culture and flashy ports. There are also flights to Montenegro from regional airports that land at Dubrovnik Airport in neighbouring Croatia, where you can hop on a transfer and take a ride across the border.
Seeking satin sands, outdoor adventures and utterly enchanting scenery for your beautiful destinations? Call off the search.
Montenegro sits on the west coast of the Balkan Peninsula, bordered by Bosnia and Herzegovina to the north, Albania to the south and Serbia to the east – plus Croatia is close by. Boasting golden beaches, whitewashed villages and lush green forests, it’s one of the most picturesque spots in the Balkans.
The Dalmatian Coast
The Dalmatian Coast is a stunning slice of Croatia. Known for its dramatic coastline, the bays here are often pebble or fine shingle but they’re beautifully unspoilt, fringed by pine forest and gin-clear Adriatic waters.
Island-hopping is one of the top things to do in Dalmatia and the popular Brač, Pag and Hvar join hundreds of islands off its idyllic coast. Find everything from nature parks to hidden fishing villages that retain an old-world charm.
You can visit an abundance of national parks from the Dalmatia Coast and there’s history in abundance, from Roman Palaces to Gothic architecture, there are layers of history to unfold here.
We think these are three stunning options and really beautiful destinations. If you want to know more get in touch and speak with Tony, Jodie or one of their team of specialists. They are Idle Travel and they sell the world!
