At Exeter International we have been creating memories and crafting our trademark extraordinary journeys to

Central Europe, Russia, and Central Asia for 23 years. Our specialty is to distill the best of the best in iconic

places that are on so many people’s travel must-do list.

We are not a call center of nameless, faceless people. We do not try to be everything to everyone. We are a

small team of specialists. We are all committed to providing the best travel experiences to our destinations.

Each member of our team has travelled extensively throughout our destinations, giving them insider

knowledge lacking in many other tour operators.

Our Extraordinary Experiences are different, unusual, and often closed to the general public. We can offer

special insider access that takes you beyond the typical tourist sites. We know how important it is to remain

authentic and increasingly going beyond the well-known sites is what is important to our guests—discovering

the little known museum or street market that adds to their experience. We do this through our local

knowledge, cultivating our extensive contacts and regularly visiting each destination to enable us to share the

most up-to-date insider information with you, our valued partner.

The most important part of your trip will be your guides. Guides come in many quality levels, especially in this

part of the world. We have worked with a core group of the best of the best for over 20 years. We know

them like family and if they weren't the best, they wouldn't work for us. Simply stated, a guide can make or

break your experience. You should have 100% confidence in who is introducing you to your guide and the

level of guiding that you are going to get throughout the countries you will be visiting. The best does indeed cost more and we pay our guides at the very top of the market, with pride.

You'll also want to know what kind of vehicle your tour will include. We use luxury late-model vehicles, often

Mercedes, Audi, BMW, or Volkswagen, depending on the size of the vehicle you need. You'll want to see

things that may or may not be open to the public and go in early or after hours before the crowds whenever

possible. We also make every effort to skip lines whenever possible. Avoiding long museum lines is one of our

top priorities and we work hard to minimize the wait time to get into the most popular sights in each city,

maximizing your time in each destination.

You'll want impeccable planning and someone to bounce ideas off of before your trip and speak English as well

as you do while planning your trip so there are no cultural misunderstandings when you arrive. You'll also

want someone to talk to if your trip is not perfect when you get home. These are all ways that we distinguish

ourselves from all other companies.

A lot goes into our travel program design. We arrange the program so that it is flawless and effortless for our

travelers from the time they set foot in the first city until they leave us. The expertise to set up an itinerary

like this comes after years of investing in staff on both sides of the Atlantic, and this too is a value that is

incorporated into our traveler's trips with us.

Upon arrival into Zagreb, your Exeter International driver will meet you just after customs and

baggage claim for the private transfer to the historic Hotel Esplanade.

Your hotel was originally constructed by the Orient Express company as a luxurious stopping

point on the Istanbul to Paris train route and much of the historic ambiance of the hotel has

remained, even after a very luxurious renovation. The remainder of today is at your leisure to

relax, take a stroll or indulge in the hotel spa.

Zagreb has long enjoyed the influence of both the Eastern and Western culture. In medieval

times, Zagreb consisted of two separate towns, Kaptol, the religious center, and Gradec, the

commercial hub. The river Medvescak in-between the two towns was often the site of fierce

battles between them. Today, Gradec and Kaptol together form the Upper Town, or Gornji

Grad, which forms the historic Old Town of Zagreb. The Lower Town, or Donji Grad, on the

plains is more chic and contemporary.

Arrival Transfer

Esplanade

This morning, your guide will take you to Gornji Grad (Upper Town) for your tour of the

historic heart of Zagreb. The best way to get around the Old Town is on foot, so wear your

most comfortable walking shoes. If you happen to be in Zagreb on a Saturday, you will find a

bustling market square – full of locals out shopping and socializing.

Begin your stroll with a visit to the Dolac, the open-air fruit and vegetable market in Old Town

and the Church of St. Mary and the towering spires of St. Stephen’s Cathedral, the most

prominent landmark on the city’s skyline. As you approach the front of the church don’t miss

the ornate sculpted doorway. The Cathedral contains the tombs of the most important

personalities in the history of Croatia including Ivan Mestrovic, the famous Croatian sculptor.

While in the Old Town, don’t miss the historic stone city gates and the booming cannon of the

Lotrscak Tower! Before leaving the Upper town, stop by the 17th century church, dedicated to

St. Catherine.

Note: Touring today is on foot.

Esplanade

This morning, head out with your driver across the border to Slovenia. When you arrive in the

Alpine lake town of Bled your driver will take you directly to Vila Bled, your local guide will

meet you for an overview of Lake Bled and the town. Take a traditional Pletna boat ride to the

baroque Church of Virgin Mary on an island in the middle of the lake.

Next, visit the beautiful Bled Castle with your guide before heading out to explore other alpine

towns in the region.

After time for lunch, continue your transfer back into Croatia toward the Adriatic Sea and the

region known as Istria. Your final destination this afternoon is the gorgeous coastal town of

Rovinj.

Transfer Zagreb-Bled-Rovinj; Guide (3 Hours)

Lone

Today, embark with your guide and driver on a tour of the beautiful towns and villages of Istria.

The interior of Istria is very different from its coast. Your first visit today is the artist colony of

Groznjan. This hilltop town was all but deserted after WWII until being revitalized as a place

for artists. This is also a favorite of musicians, as the International Cultural Centre of Young

Musicians has its seat here. You will have time to wander the twisting streets, filled with shops

from local artisans, or perhaps to take in an impromptu music or drama performance in the

main square.

Riding through the rugged and hilly terrain you will come to the medieval ruins of the town of

Motovun, which suddenly spring into view. Motovun is an excellent example of the ancient

townships that dotted the Istrian peninsula. It’s worth the long trek up to the top of the hill.

Motovun is a medieval city that dates back to the 12th century and remains completely original

and intact due to its hill-top location and walled fortifications.

This afternoon your guide and driver will take you to one of the leading, family-owned

vineyards of Istria for a private wine and olive oil tasting.

Later you will continue your tour of Istria with a visit to Livade, the small village in the Istrian

countryside famous for being one of the best-known truffle regions in Europe! White Istrian

truffles are among of the most expensive mushrooms in the world, and truffle harvesting is a

local tradition in the interior of the Istrian peninsula. You can stop for lunch at the most famous

truffle restaurants of the region for an unforgettable culinary adventure (lunch cost not included

in your program).

Vehicle, Driver & Guide (8 Hours)

Today we recommend that you utilize the bike rentals available at your hotel to explore the

town of Rovinj, with its narrow, winding streets. You can also explore on foot, if you prefer.

This afternoon, meet your driver and guide and then head to the town of Pula.

Pula became famous under the Romans during the 2nd century BCE, and became an Episcopal

seat during the 5th century. It was ransacked by the Ostrogoths but regained power under the

Byzantines as a naval port during the 6th and 7th centuries. It fell into decline until the Austro-

Hungarians gained power and established their naval fleet here. The ancient barracks of the

Austro-Hungarian Empire still house Croatia’s naval forces.

Upon arrival, your guide will take you on a walking tour of Pula. You will start at the historic

center of the city at its most famous landmark, the Pula Amphitheater, which dates back to the

1st century – one of the best preserved Roman amphitheaters in the world. Today it is Pula’s main cultural venue and is known for its music and film festivals.

Continue to visit the Golden Door at the Temple of Augustus, built between 2 BCE and 14 CE,

which is dedicated to the goddess Roma and the emperor Augustus. You will also see the City

Hall with its blend of architectural styles, the Hercules Gate and the fragments of the city walls,

as well as the Forum, the central square of classical and medieval Pula.

As time allows, you may wish to enter the Archaeological Museum of Istria, which contains

several exhibits from Neolithic times to the medieval period of objects found in Pula and the

surrounding areas.

Today you begin your transfer to Split. You may elect to drive straight through or stop en

route during the journey.

If you would like a break while driving on the beautiful coastal highway, just north of Split you

will find the charming town of Zadar. The historic city center is very charming and well worth

the stop. The highlight of the city, other than its ancient Greek and Italian heritage, is the sea

organ. Stone steps built into the sea play seven chords of five tones, making it a unique

“orchestra of nature”.

If exploring nature is more to your liking, choose Krka National Park. With its seven travertine

waterfalls and total drop of 242 meters, the Krka River is a natural and karst phenomenon.

Skradinski buk is one of the most attractive parts of the park and features a clear pool with high

waterfalls and cascades. It’s considered to be one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Europe.

You’ll also find ruins in the park that date back to Roman times, along with the Visovac Monastery founded in 1445.

Continue on your way to Split for an early evening arrival.

Transfer Rovinj – Krka - Split

Park Hotel Split

This morning, meet your guide and driver to explore the city of Split, including the ancient

Diocletian Palace.

Diocletian’s Palace, facing onto the Split harbor, is one of the most impressive Roman

architectural monuments in the world and is protected as a UNESCO Heritage Site. The

Roman Emperor Diocletian, noted for his persecution of early Christians, was a native of

nearby Salona before rising through the Roman military ranks to be eventually crowned

emperor by his legions. He ruled for 20 years before abdicating and retiring to this palace. After

his death, the palace was abandoned until the 7th century when refugees from the surrounding

areas, fleeing foreign invasions, sought shelter within the palace’s protective walls. In the

following centuries, the population outgrew its capacity and the town sprawled outside the

walls. Today, Split is a major port and industrial center, as well as a perfect base for day trips to

nearby attractions.

You will have the chance to explore with your Exeter guide the more than 200 buildings within

the boundaries of the Diocletian Palace complex, many of which are still homes, while others

house cafes, restaurants, and shops. Like a typical Roman fort, in its original form the palace had

a square layout and was surrounded by a thick wall with gates and watchtowers. Some of the

best-preserved sites you can visit are the Vestibule, the Temple of Jupiter, the Peristyle, and

Diocletian’s Mausoleum – now the Cathedral of St. Dominus. This afternoon is at your leisure

to explore Split and Diocletian’s Palace, or enjoy your resort.

Note: Touring today is on foot.

Vehicle, Driver & Guide (4 Hours)

Park Hotel Split

This morning your guide will meet you at your hotel for the short walk to your hotel’s marina,

where your private motorboat will be waiting for you. Today your motorboat will take you to

explore the neighboring island of Hvar. Through the course of history, Hvar Town has been a

melting pot of cultures and influences and is still bursting with history, art and culture, and the

home of Europe’s oldest municipal theater, which was built in the early 17th century over an

arsenal in a peace-making attempt by the then ruler of Hvar.

You will start from Hvar’s main square, right next to the harbor, which is dominated by the

Renaissance Cathedral with its distinctive bell tower dedicated to St. Stephen. The square is

surrounded by buildings dating from the 16th – 17th centuries when the town was an

important Venetian trading and seafaring center. Also in this part of town, you may wish to visit

the Benedictine Convent, where the nuns spend their lives praying and weaving elaborate laces

from the fibers of the agave plant.

This afternoon your private boat will take you to explore some of the coast of Hvar as well as

the neighboring Pakleni Islands. These islands face the town of Hvar and are uninhabited and

mostly woodlands. They feature a myriad of small secluded beaches. Some of these are nude

beaches, so please do let your guide and skipper know if you would like to avoid this! You can

stop as you desire for swimming or snorkeling.

Park Hotel Split

Today you will continue your journey with a private transfer to Dubrovnik.

En route, you will drive to the Peljesac Peninsula, which, similar to other coastal settlements,

was first colonized by the Greeks, later by the Romans and Byzantines, and in the Middle Ages

often changed hands between the Venetian and Ragusan Republics. The peninsula is known for

its fine vineyards and the best oysters in Dalmatia, farmed in the town of Ston.

Upon arrival in Ston, you will enjoy a 45-minute private boat tour. You will head to the oyster

banks and see how these rare oysters and mussels are being cultivated in the region.

Afterwards, join your oyster farmer on his little private island for a picnic lunch hosted by his

family. You’ll have an oyster tasting and a light lunch of local specialties, along with local wine.

Late afternoon arrival into Dubrovnik and the remainder of your evening is at leisure.

If you’re up to it and if you arrive early enough (they’re generally open until 7:30PM), we highly

recommend a walk into town and a walk atop the fortress walls surrounding the Old Town (a

ticket is required and this is not included in your program). Just over a mile long, this stroll

usually takes about an hour and will help you get your bearings and enjoy the splendid views of

the historic Dubrovnik and the sea. The fortification includes several bastions, the tallest of

which is the Minceta Tower, located just near the Pile gate in the north-western part of the

town.

Transfer Split - Dubrovnik

Bellevue

This morning, your guide will meet you at your hotel for an overview walking tour of the

historic center of Dubrovnik, which is protected as a UNESCO Heritage site. Guests of Villa

Dubrovnik are invited to use the hotel’s private motorboat to transfer to Old Town and you

won’t want to miss this entrance into the historic district!

Begin in Dubrovnik’s main square - the Loggia Loza, situated at the eastern extremity of the

Stradun – the centuries-old promenade which runs through the walled city from East to West.

Your guide will take you into the Rector’s Palace. The Rector was the highest authority in the

city and his palace now houses the Museum of Dubrovnik. Over 15,000 works are on display

documenting the economic and cultural history of the city. You can also visit the Dubrovnik

Cathedral and its treasury famous for the ancient relics including a fragment of the ‘true cross’

on which it is believed that Jesus was crucified.

If you like, you may visit Dubrovnik’s Sephardic Synagogue. The synagogue was established in the 15th century, survived earthquakes and wars, and is still in service today. Make sure to see

the Franciscan monastery of the “Order of Minor Friars” (Ordo Fratrum Minorum) which

includes one of the three oldest pharmacies in Europe, still serving customers. Part of the

Franciscans’ mission was to take care of the health of the local residents, so they opened the

pharmacy in 1317 and it has been in operation ever since. The monastery contains numerous

medieval pharmacists’ tools and medical books which belonged to the English kings’ physicians,

as well as 10th-Century manuscripts.

The remainder of your afternoon is at leisure. You can stay in the city to enjoy the shops and

cafes or return to your hotel and indulge in the spa.

Note: All touring today is on foot on cobblestones. Please wear appropriate footwear.

Bellevue

This morning, your driver and guide will take you farther south along the Dalmatian coast to

the town of Cavtat. This historic town dates back to the 6th Century BC and was first a Greek

colony and later a Roman town called Ephidaurum. When Slav tribes invaded the area in the

7th century, the local population sought refuge up the coast where they established Ragusa,

which later expanded to become today’s Dubrovnik. Today, Cavtat is one of the most charming

towns on the coast and retains a small town, laid-back ambience. Of historic interest here is the

Baltazar Bogisic Collection, which includes many fine paintings and works of art and is housed in

a 16th century Count’s Palace. You will also see a Franciscan monastery from the 16th century

and a monument designed by Mestrovic.

Later, you will continue your drive through the southern Dalmatian countryside and the region

known as Konavle. This is Dalmatia at its most traditional, where people still maintain the old

customs and authentic costumes and cultivate olives and vineyards.

This afternoon you will visit the winery of Niko Karaman, a local enologist who is quickly

making a name for his tiny operation. He is known for dry wines and exquisite sweet Prosek

(dessert wine) that he makes from rare indigenous grapes. His wines have already been

awarded the title of World’s Best Dessert Wine in 2009. Konavle is also known for its

excellent cuisine and we recommend having lunch at the restaurant Konovaski Dvori, a

traditional southern Dalmatian restaurant located on the banks of the Ljuta River. (Cost of

lunch is not included).

Later this afternoon, your driver and guide will take you back to Dubrovnik. The rest of the

evening will be at your leisure.

Vehicle, Driver & Guide (6 Hours)

Morning at leisure before check-out and the transfer to the airport to meet your departing

flight.

We invite you to end your journey in the utmost of luxury, while experiencing true

Montenegrin history. Just a short drive from Dubrovnik is the most extraordinary resort on the

Adriatic: Aman Sveti Stefan in Montenegro. This 13th century fishing village is now one of the

Spend the night where Tito entertained Sophia Loren! Sveti Stefan is the perfect place to relax
