The area is one of outstanding natural beauty too. With the dramatic limestone peaks of the Julian Alps providing a formidable backdrop to your route, it's picture-postcard views all the way through lush forests, rolling meadows and pretty hamlets hemmed in by well-tended vineyards and shimmering mountain streams. On your final cycling stretch, the Adriatic seascape opens before you as you make a dramatic descent across the lagoon and on to the sun-kissed island of Grado with its sandy beaches lapped by crystal-clear waters.
The places we've chosen for you to stay in are among the best in the region. Hotel highlights include beautiful lakeside views from the luxurious 4 star Hotel Park in Bled; an alpine lodge in Tarvisio, and the 4 star Grand Hotel Hannover overlooking Grado's pretty harbour and just 200m from the Adriatic Sea.

Excellent experience! Emmo was a wonderful guide and our area specialist really made the excursions exceptional. So many details were taken care of which further enhanced our experience. It was our first Trafalgar tour, but it won’t be our last❤️

I have taken several Insight tours, this was by far the best yet. We had a magical combination of 14 travellers, a brilliant tour quide, who was by far superior to any that I have had prior, an excellent competent driver, beautiful weather and scenery. A nicely paced itinerary, the stops were interesting and the hotels were excellent in all bar one. The tour was well prepared and organized making the trip flow smoothly and enjoyable with everything taken care of. It is a trip we will never forget! Croatia is as beautiful as everyone said!
