This trip was exactly what I needed. After years of family holidays and work trips, doing something like this — just me, my wife, a car, and no daily schedule, felt like a throwback to how we used to travel.
The best part? We weren’t herded around or stuck waiting for a big group. We just got in the car and drove. Some days we were super active, other days we just wandered and sat in cafes.
Croatia’s charm is obvious, but Slovenia really caught us off guard. The nature is pristine, the towns feel like no less than a fairytale, and even the touristy places don’t feel overwhelming. Also, it’s worth saying the roads were great, parking wasn’t a nightmare, and the car rental process was straightforward. That stuff matters when you’re not 25 anymore.
If you want a bit of culture, nature, good food, and a proper break from the usual routine this is your tour. We’re already talking about doing another self-drive next year. Portugal, maybe?

Begin your unforgettable journey in Zagreb, Croatia’s vibrant capital, where historic architecture and lively street scenes welcome you. After a guided exploration of the city’s Upper Town, travel across the border to Slovenia, visiting the charming capital of Ljubljana with its colorful markets and unique bridges, before continuing to the picturesque alpine town of Bled, nestled beside a stunning glacial lake. Next, return to Croatia and venture underground at the Postojna Caves, marvel at the seaside charm of Opatija, and then immerse yourself in the natural beauty of Plitvice Lakes National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site. From there, head south to Split for a deep dive into Roman history at Diocletian’s Palace. Your adventure continues aboard a deluxe small ship as you cruise the sparkling Adriatic Sea. Begin with Dubrovnik, the “Pearl of the Adriatic,” where ancient walls and marble streets set the scene. Cruise to idyllic islands including Mljet, Kor?ula, Hvar, and Vis—each offering a unique blend of history, nature, and culture. Highlights include oyster tasting in Ston, exploring the magical Blue Cave on Biševo (weather permitting), and discovering the timeless charm of island villages.
