Natural beauty

Croatia really is an area of outstanding natural beauty. Many of her most beautiful areas are protected as national parks.

The small island of Mljet is a fine example, with its picturesque saltwater lakes home to a Benedictine monastery set on a charming island, surrounded by forests. The largest of Croatia’s National Parks is the Plitvice Lakes National Park in the very heart of Croatia, in the region which connects the Adriatic coastal region with the area inland. There are three islands on the lake where visitors can enjoy walking amongst the pristine natural beauty, savouring the serene setting. Waterfalls cascade into the crystalclear waters with a canyon and even a cave to explore. It is the perfect spot to unwind and escape from the pressures of modern life. As you walk through the National Park you may really feel that you have discovered heaven on earth.

World heritage

Croatia has been conquered by many civilisations from the Romans to the Venetians, and from the Austro-Hungarian Empire to the Ottoman Empire.

Each has left its mark in the form of a treasure trove of architectural glories. Diocletian’s splendid palace in Split was the largest private residence in the ancient world, and is still awe-inspiring today. The medieval island town of Trogir, and the picturesque old walled city of Dubrovnik are two of UNESCO’s World Heritage Sites.

Over 1,100 Islands

The islands of Croatia are a popular draw for couples beach holidays although all types of travellers will find something to enjoy on the many islands along the Dalmatian coast.

Many of the islands retain a distinctly Venetian character, especially the beautiful town of Hvar, with its piazzas and grand Venetian Gothic architecture with ornate balconies and spires. Island of Korcula is home to the famous explorer, Marco Polo, who can lay claim to having been the first travel writer, Korcula is certainly a place to inspire. It is undoubtedly one of the best-preserved Medieval and Renaissance towns in the Mediterranean. Others are natural havens, such as the island of Mljet, home to the wild mongoose, with its pine forests and azure saltwater lakes. Life on the islands - with the possible exception of sophisticated Hvar - is for the most part full of simple pleasures. Swimming from rocky coves and pebble beaches in the clear waters of the Adriatic, enjoying the warm and sunny climate, getting away from the crowds, and delighting in simple meals of grilled fish and barbecued meat or trying the local speciality of black seafood risotto.

Island Hopping in Croatia, Multi Centre Croatia Holidays

For those who want to make the most of their time away, island hopping in Croatia or a multi centre holiday is the perfect option.

Diamond Star's flexible multi-centre holidays and island hopping allow you to combine a stay in the coastal cities of Dubrovnik or Split with a stay on choice of Adriatic islands, allowing you to have the best of both worlds.

The islands are relatively well connected so island hopping in Croatia is a pleasurable experience. Both the mainland and islands are well connected with each other so it is easy to combine a stay in Dubrovnik or Split with a visit to one or two of the islands, or to take in a number of the islands on an island-hopping boat tour or tailor-made holiday. You can even combine a visit to Dubrovnik with a stay in one of the Montenegrin resorts of Budva or Kotor.

Our Tailor Made holidays to Croatia offer the ultimate freedom to customise a holiday to suit you. It is not just limited to Croatia; you can also combine a holiday in Croatia with nearby Bosnia and Herzegovina, Slovenia, Montenegro as you explore the beautiful nature and fascinating history of the Balkans. Please see some of our sample itineraries to use as inspiration for you to create your own tailor-made holiday. You can choose whether to drive yourself, or have your own private car with chauffeur, or we will do all your:

Our flight was delayed and I received contact from Oguzhan and Rica telling me that they had arrange later pick up from the airport when arriving in Turkey. Mustafa our driver was warm and friendly throughout our stay .The transfer and 3 day tours were fantastic , Our guide was really knowledgeable and looked after us while we toured this remarkable place The highlight was the Balloon ride in the morning a truly magical experience . I can not fault any part of the holiday and the service of Diamond Travel Experience . Easy to contact through what’s app anytime which was a great touch . I would strongly recommend Diamond star Experience for booking a holiday , We will def book again with them when returning to Turkey. Thanks and well done ! A truly wonderful Break" Mrs Wilson - 21 Aug 2025

"A week's trip on Perla del Mar captained by Mustafa, with chef Dohan, and crew Cem, Emre and Meric turned out to be the best family holiday we had ever booked. Akin's recommendation of the boat was spot on. Dohan's menu and cooking was absolutely excellent. The crew went out of their way to assist us at every opportunity and their care and attention to the children on the trip was exemplary. There wasn't a single fault that on the whole trip, the transfers worked perfectly, the crew were there to greet us at Marmaris and led us through the alleys to the waterside where the amazing boat in front of us was to be ours for a week. We were all taken aback and realised that Mum's mad dream was coming to fruition. A holiday found by google, sold to us by Akin who took the trouble to explain everything turned out to be beyond the dreams of all of us. Canoeing in quiet coves, swimming and snorkelling to our hearts content then served with drinks and snacks before amazing meals and enjoying the trips between coves became the order of each day. I can firmly recommend this holiday to anyone. It was simply amazing." Christine - 25 May 2025

" We went to Diamond Star experience because they offer multi-centre holidays and had good ratings. We were in no way disappointed with what was organised. We said that we wanted a few days in Athens and then a week on a relatively quiet island. Akin made a proposal (Athens then Naxos) and then, when we agreed, organised everything. The Athens hotel was central and accessible to the main sites and to restaurants, and was of very good quality. The choice of Naxos for the island was equally good and we stayed in an excellent three star hotel on the edge of the town within easy reach of the beach and restaurants. All transfers were efficiently organised and even when there was a transport hiccup (our fault!) there was a phone call from the Athens back-up team within the hour to find out what had happened.
Thank you very much, Akin and staff, for a really enjoyable holiday and for service which can be easily be recommended. " Mr Alan Fraser - 19 May 2025
