If you find yourself in Croatia and you love food, you’re in for a real treat. This paradise for foodies is well-known throughout the world for its amazing cuisine. Italian influence and seafood dominate the coast, while Austrian/Hungarian/Turkish cuisine inspires the continental regions. Get ready for meaty dishes in Zagreb. And when on the Istria Peninsula relish in all the truffles and try the traditional hand-rolled pasta fuži – yep, served with truffles. Enjoy the wine! Coffee is a culture here. Take part with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine and mingle with locals in cozy cafes.
Welcome to the home of 4 million(ish) generous, nature-loving people who want you to have at least three food helpings. Beyond the mainland there are over 1,200 islands (48 are inhabited) – all with stunning Adriatic Sea views and gorgeous Gothic architecture.
All that jet lag will kindly slip away the second you peep Zagreb’s Austro-Hungarian architecture. After a quick pits and bits refresher at your hotel, we’ll gather for an afternoon guided walk through Croatia’s capital city. We’ll wrap up our walking tour with a spirited welcome dinner in the old town.
