The country of Croatia is perhaps familiar to most people as the place of one of the most terrible wars in recent years; the country itself has become synonymous with bloodshed and strife. That, however, is a thing of the past- Croatia’s wounds are healing, and along with a relative measure of normalcy, tourism is coming back to the country.

Croatia lies at the confluence of the Mediterranean, the Alps and the Pannonian Plains- a land of forested mountains, blue seas, beautiful islands, rivers and thermal spas, castles and ski resorts. It’s long been a popular tourist destination, and along with the return of peace, so has returned the tourist.
