Your adventure begins in Slovenia and takes you through Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Albania, and Greece before circling back. Each country offers a unique slice of Balkan heritage and a collection of UNESCO World Heritage sites that will leave you spellbound.

Highlights of the Journey:

  • Croatia: Marvel at the pristine beauty of the Plitvice Lakes National Park, a wonderland of cascading waterfalls and turquoise lakes.
  • Bosnia and Herzegovina: Visit Mostar, home to the iconic Stari Most (Old Bridge), a symbol of the country’s rich history and resilience.
  • Montenegro: Ride through the hidden gem of the Balkans, featuring Durmitor National Park and the Tara River Canyon, Europe’s largest gorge and the second deepest canyon in the world. Revel in the views over the Bay of Kotor and navigate its charming narrow roads, where the sea meets the asphalt.
