Featured Destinations

Montenegro Montenegro Declared independent from Serbia in 2006, the small country of Montenegro features the best of both summer and winter vacation possibilities, including fabulous beaches. Because of its geographical diversity—the Adriatic Sea lies at its southern border, and 70 mountain peaks are scattered inland—Montenegro's landscape varies tremendously, creating a great opportunity to explore many natural phenomena, including deep canyons, caves, lakes and bays, sandy beaches and the sea. Montenegro has been a popular tourist destination for many years. Previously, vacationers from the former Yugoslavia populated the area heavily; more recently, visitors from Germany, the Czech Republic, Russia, Saudi Arabia and the United Kingdom frequent the region. The country is known for its friendly locals and for its well-organized holiday resorts. Montenegro's currency is the euro, which is readily available and makes shopping and traveling within the country easy for visitors. Since its independence, Montenegro has been developing its tourist industry rapidly and renovating its infrastructure, including roads, buildings and public utilities. Travelers who are looking for a quieter, yet still active, tourist destination will enjoy Montenegro.	Destination Guide
Sarajevo Sarajevo Sarajevo is one of the most historically interesting cities in Europe. It is the place where the Western & Eastern Roman Empire split; where the people of the Eastern Orthodox east, the Ottoman south and the Roman Catholic west, met, lived and warred. It has been both an example of historical turbulence and the clash of civilizations, as well as a beacon of hope for peace and tolerance through multi-cultural integration. Today the city has physically recovered from most of the war damage caused by the Yugoslav Wars of the early nineties. Sarajevo is a cosmopolitan European capital with a unique Eastern twist that is a delight to visit. The people are very friendly, be they Bosniak, Serb, or Croat. There is very little crime, not nearly as many tourists as on the Dalmatian coast and a wealth of architecture (not to mention history) to see.	Destination Guide
Plitvice National Park Plitvice National Park The natural attributes of Plitvice Lakes National Park, uniqueness and sensibility of that phenomenon, deserve full attention of visitors. Its natural diversity and harmony of shapes and colours in any of the seasons are enough to make any visitor amazed by the beauty. UNESCO has declared it with all rights as the World's natural inheritance.	Destination Guide
Dubrovnik Dubrovnik Classed as a world heritage treasure by UNESCO, Dubrovnik is a place of ancient streets lined with stone palaces, Venetian-style buildings and bell towers. The city is enclosed by stone walls, and the highlight is a leisurely walk atop these massive walls for a great view of the city and the sea. Entering Dubrovnik, you are greeted by an impressive pedestrian promenade, the Placa, which extends before you all the way to the clock tower at the other end of town. The Orlando Tower here is a favorite meeting place. Just inside the city walls near the Pile Gate is the Franciscan Monastery housing the third-oldest functioning pharmacy in Europe, operating since 1391. For a fantastic panorama of the city, take a cable car ride to the summit of the 1,340-foot Mount Srdj.	Destination Guide
Split Split Split, the largest Croatian city on the Adriatic coast, is the heart of Dalmatia. The old town is built around the harbor on the south side of a high peninsula sheltered from the open sea by many islands. Split achieved fame when the Roman emperor Diocletian (245-313), noted for his persecution of early Christians, had his retirement palace built here from 295 to 305. Since 1945 Split has grown into a major industrial city with large apartment-block housing areas. Much of old Split remains, however, and this combined with its exuberant nature makes it one of the most fascinating cities in Europe.	Destination Guide
Zagreb Zagreb Croatia's capital and largest city, Zagreb also was the cultural capital of the former Yugoslavia. The city boasts many museums, art galleries, orchestras and folk festivals. Today, outdoor cafes are full, dance clubs pump music into the night air and art festivals are as popular as they were before the war. Zagreb has several reminders of the Austro-Hungarian period, particularly the decorated facades and the deep yellow color of old government buildings.	Destination Guide
