Product Description
Product Description
Home to seven World Heritage sites and a diverse landscape - including pristine Adriatic coastlines - Croatia has something in store for the history buff, luxury-seeker, and every traveller in between. "National Geographic Traveler: Croatia" leads you through the country's hot-spots and lesser-known, but nonetheless enticing destinations. You will discover the castles of Central Croatia, beaches and islands along the Dalmatian coast, and mouth-watering food markets and small boutiques along the way. This guide, written by former Zagreb resident and hiking enthusiast Rudolf Abraham, includes special sidebar features detailing experiences throughout the country to help you delve further into the culture. Learn the Croatian language, for example or take in a football match; study falconry near Sibenik, or volunteer to help the endangered griffon falcons on the island of Cres. Insider tips, in addition, provided by an array of National Geographic experts - photographers, writers, and grantees who have spent significant time in Croatia - direct you to favourite restaurants, festivals, and other information that only locals know. Guided walks and drives are always a popular feature in our guides, and in "National Geographic Traveler: Croatia", these include strolls through the always-popular Plitvice National Park and the World Heritage city of Dubrovnik. A hike on Velebit and a drive through inland Istria's hill towns are also featured. The book's extensive Travelwise section provides hotels, restaurants, and tour recommendations hand-picked by the author, as well as a glossary that covers must-know words.
