    • Zagreb, Croatia, Croatia
    Join your local guide today for a journey of discovery through Zagreb. You'll start in the Upper Town, the oldest part of the city where some buildings date back to the 13th century. See the Neo-Gothic-style Zagreb Cathedral, a national landmark that literally towers over the city with twin spires standing 108-meters tall. Admire the ancient St. Mark's Church and its unique tiled roof; visit the Stone Gate, the oldest shrine in the city; and indulge in the lively sights of the bustling Dolac Market. You'll also visit the more modern Lower Town, including the grand Ban Jelacic Square. Leave the city this afternoon to be immersed in nature in the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Plitvice Lakes National Park. The largest national park in Croatia, it's famous for its 16 sparkling lakes connected by underground aquifers and tumbling waterfalls. It's an easy walk along a network of paths that skirt the rocky shores or cross over the jewel-like waters. The park is a riot of wildflowers in spring, lush green through summer, and a kaleidoscope of red and gold in autumn. ...

    • Ljubljana, Slovenia, Slovenia
    This morning, you'll depart on a short journey across the border into Slovenia and its charming capital city, Ljubljana. One of Europe's smallest capitals, Ljubljana is often described as a 'jewel box' for its picture-perfect river, abundant parkland, red-roofed Old Town, and glorious architecture. Meet with your local guide for an engaging tour. The 900-year-old Ljubljana Castle stands on a hill overlooking the city. Its exquisitely restored buildings, quiet green spaces, and artistic installations give you a meaningful insight into Slovenian culture. The medieval Old Town area is off limits to cars, so is ideal for exploring on foot. During a guided tour you will see the 17th-century Franciscan Church (famed for its pale pink facade), the Baroque St. Nicholas Cathedral, the grand Opera House, and the excellent National Museum, housed in a former Neo-Renaissance palace. Enjoy a two-night stay in Ljubljana. ...

    • Ljubljana, Slovenia, Slovenia
    From a jewel box to a hidden gem; today you're traveling around 40 minutes north of the city to the chic resort town of Bled. It's a favorite holiday spot for Slovenians but not well known to international visitors, so you're in for a real treat. The glassy blue-green waters of the glacial Lake Bled reflect the lush green mountains and the boats bobbing at shore create a memorable setting. Board a traditional pletna boat to visit the Church of the Mother of God, perched on a tiny island in the middle of the lake. It was first built in 1142, though the current building dates to the 17th century, and visitors can ring the bell to make a wish to the mythical lady of the lake. Back in Ljubljana, why not join the locals by the Ljubljanica River tonight. Cafes set up outdoor seating along the banks, transforming it into a welcoming street party. ...

Its Old Town is glorious in medieval and Gothic architecture and its well-preserved hilltop castle, which has history dating back to the 9th century, still dominates the town. These charming historic sites contrast with its brutalist socialist architecture, which is evident around the city. ...

Each river is distinct in color and some days you can clearly see the green, blue, and black hues where the waters meet. At the center of the Baroque city, the 13th-century Italianate Old Town is packed with tight laneways tunnels and archways, including an 'Artists mile' where old buildings are occupied by artist studios, workshops, and galleries. ...

Behind its enchanting facade, Nuremberg also has a turbulent history. During WWII the city was favored by the Nazis for party rallies, the boycotts of Jewish businesses began here, as did the laws that denied Jewish people German citizenship - known as the 'Nuremberg Laws'. By 1945, the city was reduced to rubble, including large sections of the Imperial Castle and Old Town. Allied powers - the US, Great Britain, France, and the Soviet Union - held the Nuremberg Trials here between 1945 and 1946, where Nazi Germany leaders were tried for war crimes and crimes against humanity. ...
