The journey
Discover the highlights of Croatia’s Istrian peninsula on a full-day journey from Zagreb to two of its most atmospheric towns. Begin in Pula, where Roman heritage takes centre stage with a visit to the impressive Pula Arena, alongside other historic landmarks including the Cathedral of the Assumption, the Temple of Augustus, and the ancient city gates.
Continue to the medieval coastal town of Rovinj, known for its Baroque and Renaissance character, narrow old-town streets, and polished stone lanes leading up to the Church of St. Euphemia. With guided visits in both towns and free time for lunch at your own expense, this tour offers a rewarding mix of history, architecture, and local charm.
