Tom cruises Balkans on Croatia holiday

Tom Cruise is among the Top Guns enjoying a Croatia sailing holiday this week, with the Hollywood icon embarking on a tour of the many impressive islands in the region.

The past few months have proven difficult for the 50-year-old screen legend following the news that he was being divorced by his wife Katie Holmes back in July.

His most recent screen effort, Rock of Ages, also failed to attract audiences to the cinema, with the film adaptation of the hit musical proving a flop at the box office.

Yet better things could be just around the corner, with Cruise taking on the role of Jack Reacher for an upcoming movie version of the popular Lee Child novel 'One Shot'.

With filming complete, the screen legend decided to take some much-needed vacation time, opting for a Croatia holiday with a spot of Adriatic cruise fun thrown in for good measure.

According to a report from the Croatian Times, the actor arrived in Split this week before heading to a luxury yacht to commence his trip around the region.

Cruise is reportedly keen to explore the many islands located off Croatia's western coast, which number at well over 1,000.

The holiday is not the first time the star has visited Croatia, with a previous trip seeing the 50-year-old take in the delights of Dubrovnik and Mljet back in 2004.

This time around though, Cruise was evidently eager to enjoy a spot of island hopping Croatia style and he is unlikely to be disappointed.

The Magnolia actor is the latest big name to embark on a Croatia holiday this summer, with the likes of Tina Turner and rapper MC Hammer enjoying sailing experiences in recent weeks.

And while ordinary holidaymakers are unlikely to embrace the same level of luxury these stars enjoy, a Croatia cruise trip is far from Mission Impossible for those looking to travel on a budget.

With low-cost flights available from various locations in the UK and great deals available on Sail Croatia experiences this is one trip that won't mean Risky Business for your finances.
