Off beaten tracks of Croatia and Bosnia

Nestled to the east of Italy, Croatia is a bright tapestry of beautiful cities with frozen-in-time buildings and spellbinding shorelines that invite endless swimming. People are drawn here from far and wide for the pearlescent beaches of Split and Hvar, and the historical treasures lurking around every corner of Dubrovnik and Zagreb. Bordering Croatia to the north is sun-dappled Bosnia, with its plethora of ski resorts, national parks and sparkling lakes that’ll have you reaching for your camera. Cosmopolitan cities like Sarajevo collide with mountainous towns such as Jajce to create a destination of beautiful contrasts.
