This outstanding tour takes in the highlights of the grand capital city, Zagreb, and three incredible UNESCO World Heritage Sites - the stunning Plitvice Lakes, the royal resort town of Šibenik and the majestic, walled city of Dubrovnik.

Itinerary

Day 1 London - Venice - Opatija Titan’s VIP door-to-door travel service collects you from home, for your journey to London Gatwick Airport for your direct, scheduled British Airways flight to Venice. On arrival you will be transferred to the Hotel Bristol (4T) or Design Astoria (4T), in Opatija, which takes approximately 3.5 hours by coach. There will be a stop in picturesque Trieste, time permitting. Day 2 Opatija Opatija is a fashionable holiday resort, which, since 1844, has seen many famous personalities, including central European aristocracy, Puccini, Chekhov and James Joyce. You are free to enjoy the facilities of your hotel today, take a dip in the picturesque bays or make your own exploration of Opatija and neighbouring Volosko, a pretty fishing village just a short walk along the 12 kilometre promenade with stunning mountain views across the Adriatic. Day 3 Zagreb After a leisurely breakfast, we depart this morning and travel to Zagreb, the country’s capital. This afternoon we have included a guided walking tour to introduce you to this magnificent city. In the heart of the city is Bana Josip Jelacica Square, named after the 19th century governor, which divides Donji Grad (Lower Town) and Gornji Grad (Upper Town). With streets made for strolling, there are numerous museums and parks to aim for and Dolac Market will give you a true taste of Zagreb. We stay at the Sheraton Zagreb Hotel (5T). Day 4 Zagreb - Plitvice Lakes - Zadar We travel south to one of the treasures of the Balkan Peninsula today and wend our way along boardwalks that criss-cross through the Plitvice Lakes National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The National Park is an extraordinary complex of sixteen emerald-green lakes and pools, which, fed by the Korana River and other smaller streams, allow the waters to flow from one lake to the next forming a spectacular display of waterfalls and cascades. Later, after a journey through dramatic mountain ranges, we arrive at the central Dalmatian town of Zadar, situated on a sheltered peninsula with a picturesque harbour. In the centre of the old Roman Forum, the 12th century late Romanesque cathedral can be found, and, next to the cathedral, St Donat Church, the largest Byzantine building in Croatia, both of which bear testimony to Zadar’s colourful past. We stay tonight near to the centre of Zadar at the Hotel Kolovare (3T). Day 5 Zadar - Šibenik - Solin Leaving Zadar, we continue our journey south this morning for a visit to the characteristic town of Šibenik, which was built by the Croatian Kings. We delve into its maze of winding streets and enter the cathedral on a guided tour. Built in the 15th century and now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the cathedral is an elaborate mix of styles, including its dome that was inspired by Brunelleschi’s in Florence. We arrive at our hotel - the Hotel President Solin (5T) - late this afternoon, with time to explore the ruins of the Roman theme and amphitheatre nearby. Day 6 Split A guided sightseeing tour awaits this morning when we will have the opportunity to discover Split’s heart, located within the walls of Diocletian’s Palace. As its name suggests, the Roman Emperor Diocletian, who was born in Solin, built the Palace in the 3rd century AD, a combination of an Imperial Villa and Roman stronghold that forms one of the world’s most impressive Roman monuments. Through the centuries and under various rulers, including the Byzantines, Venetians and Austro-Hungarians, a city flowered within the grounds of this World Heritage Site. You are free for the rest of the afternoon. Day 7 Solin - Ston - Babin Kuk We make a stop in medieval Ston, encapsulated by impressive defensive walls, and arrive late this afternoon in Babin Kuk, a suburb of Dubrovnik on a peaceful peninsula. Our hotel, the Valamar Lacroma (4T) or Valamar President (4T), is a short drive from the Old Town. We stay in sea-view rooms. Day 8 Dubrovnik After an early start, we travel to the centre of Dubrovnik. Your guided walk will include a visit to the 15th century Rector’s Palace and the Franciscan Monastery, famous for its pharmacy dating back to 1317, providing an example of how sophisticated this independent republic was in its heyday. You will then have free time to explore the pedestrianised Old Town, which has earned Dubrovnik not only the title of being a UNESCO World Heritage Site but an exclusive Mediterranean destination. Day 9 Babin Kuk You are at leisure today. Perhaps return to the Old Town to walk along the wall for fantastic views and access to its four fortresses, take the cable car to the top of Mount Srd, or take an optional excursion to Kotor in Montenegro, a labyrinth of old alleyways surrounded by incredible scenery. Day 10 Babin Kuk - Dubrovnik - London Today we are transferred to Dubrovnik Airport for your direct, scheduled British Airways flight to London Gatwick Airport. On arrival you will be met and guided to your Titan vehicle, for the journey home.

Introducing Titan Travel

Titan will never compromise on quality. We continue to make every effort to ensure that, when you travel with us, you enjoy the holiday of a lifetime, every time. Every individual aspect of your holiday has been carefully considered to deliver the best ratio of quality and value, provide complete peace of mind and yet still satisfy the most adventurous travel spirit. The expert planning, choice of hotels and transportation methods, included excursions and the services of an expert Titan tour manager can really enhance your appreciation of a destination and transform an ordinary holiday into a truly inspiring one.

Many escorted holidays sold by British tour operators originate in the destination and are aimed at the international market, with multilingual commentaries, sweepingly general itineraries and local contracted hotels and tour managers. Titan holidays are different. They are expertly crafted in-house and are only on sale in the UK; our well-travelled product specialists know their destinations inside out and select the best hotels, airlines, trains and cruise vessels. Properly balanced itineraries, most unique to us, are designed to include excursions and visits of particular interest to British travelers as well as a number of free days when there is always a choice of relaxation or enjoyable things to do. And, in the majority of cases, Titan holidays are escorted by the best tour managers in the business.

Exceptional Value

Quality often comes with a price tag and, indeed, Titan has never striven to be the cheapest tour operator. What you get with us though is unparalleled value for money, with a host of inclusions as standard and a range of exclusive offers and discounts.

Traveling in style
With Titan, not only does your holiday begin and end at your front door, it also includes scheduled international flights with world-renowned airlines and the most memorable form of touring transport. Where this is a coach, we look to provide the best available, with air-conditioning, w/c and daily seat rotation in the interests of fairness. But escorted tours are not simply limited to coaches. Titan is one of the UK’s leading rail specialists and a number of our holidays incorporate journeys on iconic trains, that seem to transport you not only through some of the most dramatic and beautiful landscapes in the world, but also back in time to a nostalgic ‘golden age’ of luxurious and stylish travel.

If you are undecided between the elegance and relaxation of a cruise and the enthralling insight of an escorted tour, Titan’s Cruise & Tour® holidays could be a perfect choice. You can cruise with some of the most respected names in the industry, including Fred.Olsen and Holland America, around regions of awe-inspiring beauty and head ashore for an extra land-based touring element. Alternatively, the waterways of Europe, Egypt and China link the most spectacular cultural gems in picturesque fashion and a river cruise is an outstanding way to appreciate wonderful destinations from a different and more relaxed perspective. Our river cruise partners include Uniworld, multi award-winning operator of 5★ boutique river cruises.

Included Excursions
We don’t believe that our holidaymakers should pay extra for optional excursions to experience what are obviously the most important attractions of a country or region. You get much better value if they are included from the start. Unless otherwise stated, every visit mentioned in the tour itinerary is included in the cost of your holiday.

Quality named hotels and lodges
Hotels on Titan holidays are much more than simply a place to sleep at the end of the day. They may place you at the heart of a thrilling city or in a retreat of sublime tranquillity; reflect the character and heritage of a destination or play an integral part in its social scene; present inspiring views or a range of exhilarating experiences. Location and quality are key considerations. At Titan, we always seek to provide the best of both choosing a lower priced holiday based on lower quality, more remote hotels can often be a false economy in the time and money you end up wasting during your stay.

Low or No Single Supplements

We are always looking at ways of minimizing or eliminating our single supplements. A number of tours featured on this website have low or no single supplements to pay.

The UK's best holiday price promise

It has always been a Titan principle that the earlier you book, the lower the price you pay. Our holiday price promise provides complete peace of mind – if we subsequently reduce the price to below what you have already paid (after any discounts have been applied), we will contact you to refund the difference†!

This guarantee applies to tour prices only (excluding all Traveller, by Titan holidays and any selected loyalty rewards we may offer to past travelers from time to time) and does not include airline upgrades, holiday additions, extended stays or regional connecting flights and selected special offer products.
