There are many wonderful places on the Adriatic, but beach, medical, ski tours to Croatia every year are gaining popularity. It is easy to breathe among the pines crawling on the rocks, and the water is so blue as off the coast of Croatia, you rarely see it anywhere.

Going on a tour from Moscow or other regions of Russia, you will feel comfortable in the country - there is no suffocating heat here, the summer temperature on the coast is about +28, in the mountains +22. The water in the sea is also not "baked milk" - it warms up to 25 degrees only in the second half of July.

You can even go to Croatia from Russia by train, but direct flights will take you from Moscow in 3 hours to Zagreb, 2 hours from the sea by bus. It is more convenient to buy a tour to Croatia with a direct flight to beach resorts- Pula, Dubrovnik, Split.

What is good tourist Croatia

• The beaches are all free, municipal, you pay only for the equipment.
• Developed bus network - easy to get between cities and inexpensive.
• Delicious cheeses and wine.
• The sea is clean, excellent conditions for diving.

Selection of a tour to Croatia: which resort to choose

For beach holiday There are many cozy and pretty resorts in Croatia. Ischia, with breathtaking views, bustling party Split, handsome Dubrovnik.

Only the beaches here are mostly rocky, platforms. Sandy shore with a shallow entrance to the water for small children will have to look. For example, near Dubrovnik or in the Middle Dalmatia, where the beaches are small pebbles.

Ski resort Sleme is located only 10 km from the airport in Zagreb, prices for hotels and ski lifts are more pleasant than in neighboring countries.

The favorable climate attracts those who come to improve their health in the treatment centers near the thermal springs. We advise you to start searching for a health tour to Croatia by studying the direction of the programs of the resorts. Here they treat cardiovascular diseases, recover from injuries, use naftalan oil for skin problems.

Price for tours to Croatia 2017

The cost of holidays in Croatia has not changed during the year, the price level for vouchers is lower than the European average, but higher than for tours to Bulgaria. The price of a room in a 3 * hotel in July 2017 in Budva for 7 nights is from 40,000 rubles.

A feature of the tourist infrastructure is that there are few 5-star hotels, mostly small family hotels of 3 stars. All-inclusive services are not popular in Croatia, so you need to book comfortable rooms in advance.

Resorts rarely have hotels on the first line - the coast is rocky, and buildings are built where nature allows. If you have difficulty with movement, pay attention to the location of the hotel - steep stairs will have to be overcome.

Compare prices for tours to Croatia from different operators and be sure to look at photos and reviews of hotels - there are still not reconstructed hotels in the country.

You can buy last-minute tours at a price lower than 50%, but do not forget that a visa is required to enter Croatia.
