Croatia holiday 'perfect spot for starting eastern European adventure'

Travellers on a Croatia holiday could find that the country is the perfect place from which to explore the Eastern European region.

 

A reader asked the New York Times travel expert this week which destinations are within a convenient distance of Slovenia.

 

Zagreb is located just over two hours away, but Croatia is such an exciting place that you may find yourself stopping off there for more than a few days.

 

Or conversely, if you've had a crazy whirlwind tour of some of the region's most fashionable and historical cities, you could find that a Croatia holiday provides plenty of opportunities for relaxing.

 

A sailing holiday on the Adriatic could be the perfect way to take in the dramatic Dalmatian coastline.

 

In addition, after doing a pit-stop in many of the region's cities, youmight feel like exploring a few islands.

 

Most travellers have heard of Korcula and Hvar, but there are several hundred other virtually uninhabited places to see.
