There\u2019s historically significant sites such as Diocletian\u2019s Palace in Split and the City Walls of Dubrovnik for culture seekers and award-winning vineyards and cellars to visit in Istria for wine connoisseurs or anyone looking to get off the beaten path in Croatia.<br><br>Croatia also has an array of National Parks to explore. Our favourite is the&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gorealtravel.com\/destinations\/plitvice-lakes\">Plitvice Lakes National Park<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;because of its stunning views of the lakes and waterfalls.

While a Croatia trip can be exciting and filled with wonderful experiences, you can also add other neighboring countries to enhance your Croatia holiday plan. A few such places that are easily combinable with Croatia are listed below:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Slovenia<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Nestled between the Alps and the Mediterranean, Slovenia is Croatia\u2019s neighbor and hidden gem. The hustle and bustle of tourists in Croatia balances perfectly with the fairytale landscapes and snow capped Julian mountains near Lake Bled and Ljubljana. Take the train from Ljubljana to Zagreb as the perfect entry way to Croatia.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Montenegro&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This small country has a lot to offer ranging from beautiful landscapes, culture, Roman ruins to mosques, fortresses and churches. Montenegro, or specifically Kotor, can be done on an easy day trip from Dubrovnik.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Bosnia &amp; Herzegovina<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Bosnia &amp; Herzegovina is where the Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian cultures and histories meet. The beautiful wineries, medieval castles, dramatic mountains and shopping streets present a pleasant amalgamation of cultures and are a great addition to your Croatian holiday plan. You can visit Mostar as an easy day trip from Dubrovnik or as a stop over on your way to Sarajevo, Bosnia\u2019s historic capital.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Italy<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Venice in Italy is a quick trip from Croatia.

You can get a Schengen visa and explore Croatia and its neighboring countries without border controls.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>The official currency of Croatia is now the Euro. The Croatian Kuna is no longer the official currency. However, if you do have the Kuna, you can exchange them at the Croatian National Bank.<\/li>\n<li>You can use e-sims procured from other countries in the Schengen zone. You can also get yourself a sim card locally in Croatia.<\/li>\n<li>Croatian is the official language of Croatia.<\/li>\n<li>Tipping at least 10% is the customary practice in most establishments in Croatia. We recommend that you tip the guides and drivers too.<\/li>\n<li>Beaches in Croatia are pebbly and rocky with sea urchins lurking under them. We recommend carrying swimming shoes to enjoy those beach walks.<\/li>\n<li>Naturist beaches are popular in Croatia so don\u2019t be alarmed.<\/li>\n<li>An important tip to remember is that you refrain from discussing the Yugoslav war while in Croatia. Even though many years have passed since the war has had devastating effects on certain parts of the country, it is advisable to steer clear of this topic.&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>&nbsp;Tap water is safe to drink in Croatia.<\/li>\n<li>Cash is still king in Croatia, so always be sure to have cash on you and small notes and coins, especially when paying for small items in shops, bus tickets and cash tips.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_Step_11_%E2%80%93_How_much_does_a_vacation_to_Croatia_cost\"><\/span><span id=\"_Step_11_%E2%80%93_How_much_does_a_vacation_to_Croatia_cost\" class=\"ez-toc-section\"><\/span><strong>&nbsp;Step 11 \u2013 How much does a vacation to Croatia cost?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The cost of your Croatian holiday would depend on your travel style, transportation choices, food preferences and activities.
