WELCOME TO Plitvice Lakes National Park
CROATIA Dear Clients Our Croatia holidays are becoming more and more popular, and I am delighted to see that our guests are enjoying exploring this beautiful country just as much as I have. You will be pleased to know that we have decided to branch out this year and have included lots of new destinations and even new types of holidays. For the first time, we have included the medieval town of Trogir, one of Croatia’s UNESCO World Heritage sites, as well as the charming town of Sibenik. Also for the first time we are including accommodation in the stunning Plitvice National Park area. You may notice that we have made quite a few changes to the brochure, not just to the design but also to the way in which we display our holidays. We have tried to bring to the fore those holidays which we feel we do best - our tailor-made, two and three centre holidays, which are now at the beginning of the brochure. We have introduced an exciting new adventure holiday in Split, as well as a semi-independent island-hopping holiday, where all boat tickets, transfers and accommodation is included. We hope that you will find it easy to find the holiday you want. If you have any queries please don’t hesitate to call us. All of our dedicated team has firsthand experience of visiting the resorts and accommodation which we feature, and will be happy to offer you advice on your holiday. As ever, high standards of service are central to everything which we do. We were delighted to win the award for Star European Specialist Operator 2015 at the recent Travel Bulletin Awards. This is a prestigious and closely contended award, voted for by travel agents, who, after all, are the travel experts. We are very grateful to them and to our loyal clients for their support. I hope you enjoy browsing our new Croatia & Montenegro Collection. I would like to leave you with a word of warning - Croatia does tend to get booked up early. If you want to be sure of the holiday of your choice I suggest you call us as soon as possible. That way you can also benefit from early booking discounts to ensure the best possible price. I look forward to welcoming you to one of our unique holiday experiences in 2016.

AN INTRODUCTION TO
CROATIA
A sparkling jewel spread along the glittering shores of the Adriatic, Croatia is an undiscovered gem combining fascinating history with beautiful architecture and a stunning coastline A holiday in Croatia can offer so many different experiences, combining ancient walled cities with unspoilt natural beauty; picturesque bays and rocky coves with lush, green forests. However you choose to spend your holiday, we can help you explore Croatia and discover the holiday of your dreams. Don’t leave it too long though - the popularity of Croatia is spreading fast. You should definitely explore the wonders of Croatia before they become spoiled.
Natural beauty Croatia really is an area of outstanding natural beauty. Many of her most beautiful areas are protected as national parks. The small island of Mljet is a fine example, with its picturesque saltwater lakes home to a Benedictine monastery set on a charming island, surrounded by forests. The largest of Croatia’s National Parks is the Plitvice Lakes National Park in the very heart of Croatia, in the region which connects the Adriatic coastal region with the area inland. There are three islands on the lake where visitors can enjoy walking amongst the pristine natural beauty, savouring the serene setting. Waterfalls cascade into the crystalclear waters with a canyon and even a cave to explore. It is the perfect spot to unwind and escape from the pressures of modern life. As you walk through the National Park you may really feel that you have discovered heaven on earth.
CROATIA
World heritage
6
Croatia has been conquered by many civilisations from the Romans to the Venetians, and from the Austro-Hungarian Empire to the Ottoman Empire. Each has left its mark in the form of a treasure trove of architectural glories. Diocletian’s splendid palace in Split was the largest private residence in the ancient world, and is still awe-inspiring today. The medieval island town of Trogir, and the picturesque old walled city of Dubrovnik are two of UNESCO’s World Heritage Sites.
Over 1,100 islands Many of the islands retain a distinctly Venetian character, especially the beautiful town of Hvar, with its piazzas and grand Venetian Gothic architecture with ornate balconies and spires. Others are natural havens, such as the island of Mljet, home to the wild mongoose, with its pine forests and azure saltwater lakes. Life on the islands - with the possible exception of sophisticated Hvar - is for the most part full of simple pleasures. Swimming from rocky coves and pebble beaches in the clear waters of the Adriatic, enjoying the warm and sunny climate, getting away from the crowds, and delighting in simple meals of grilled fish and barbecued meat or trying the local speciality of black seafood risotto.
Adriatic Cruises One of the best ways to explore Croatia’s beautiful islands is on board one of our cruise ships. You get the best of both worlds - stopping off at the islands and cruising the crystalclear waters. We offer a variety of options to suit all tastes and budgets. See pages 8-13 for more details.

Why not combine a stay in Dubrovnik with a holiday in one of Montenegro’s stunning coastal resorts, or a resort on Croatia’s Istrian peninsula with a visit to Slovenia. For two centre holidays with Montenegro see page 25. For two and three centre holidays with Slovenia see pages 10-11 of the Slovenia section of this brochure.

The islands are relatively well connected, both with the mainland and with each other so it is easy to combine a stay in Dubrovnik or Split with a visit to one or two of the islands (see our multi-centre holidays on pages 20-25), or to take in a number of the islands on an island-hopping boat tour or tailor-made holiday. Please turn to pages 14-19 to see some of our sample itineraries to use as inspiration for you to create your own tailor-made holiday. You can choose whether to drive yourself, or have your own private car with chauffeur.

This way, you can acclimatise to being in Croatia, find your bearings in the city and really immerse yourself in sightseeing, knowing that you can spend the next week relaxing on board. Some people prefer to plan their holiday so that the cruise comes first, and they can then spend a few additional days enjoying city life and sightseeing at the end of their holiday. Don’t forget, that both of these Dalmatian cities are on the coast, so it is possible to combine city life with soaking up the sun and enjoying swimming in the clear waters of the Adriatic.

This holiday is ideal for those who want to combine a stay in enchanting Dubrovnik, with two of Dalamatia’s most unspoilt islands
This popular combination allows you to visit two fascinating cities, stopping en route in the popular seaside resort town of Tucepi
Dubrovnik is a fascinating city, but with so many historic and cultural sites there is so much to see and do that a few days’ sightseeing can leave you ready for a holiday.
The ancient walled city of Dubrovnik, set on a glittering bay in the Adriatic, with its red-roofed stone houses, looks so perfect that it is almost like a film set - its high crenellated city walls and fairytale fortresses appearing to rise out of the sea. The gleaming marble streets of the old town, the grand squares, charming steep-stepped passageways and picturesque monasteries and palaces seem so well-preserved that they feel like an open museum.
Mljet could just be the perfect tonic! It is the ideal island escape, a tiny island, most of which is taken up by a beautiful national park. Mljet is simply the perfect place to unwind, relax and enjoy being in a beautiful, unspoiled natural environment.
From Dubrovnik it is approximately 3 hours’ drive to reach the laid-back resort of Tucepi on the beautiful Makarska Riviera, with its long sandy, shingle and rocky beaches and pine-fringed promenades. Popular with locals as a holiday spot, it offers a good choice of watersports and plenty of restaurants and bars. Spend five nights here relaxing on the beach and enjoying the excellent climate and beautiful mountain scenery.
Your final destination is Korcula which falls somewhere between the hustle and bustle of Dubrovnik and the serenity of Mljet. Its charming, well-preserved old walled town looks as if it has sprung straight from the pages of an adventure story, and the impressive Venetian Cathedral of St. Mark’s is well worth a visit. Korcula is relatively popular with holidaymakers and also has some lively bars and a good choice of restaurants. Sunseekers will find plenty of places to swim and soak up the sun. Just take a taxi boat to the sand and shingle beaches around the Raznjic headland. All in all, this holiday allows you to experience the contrast between bustling city life and the laid-back ambience of the islands, with time to experience the highlights of each destination. Please note: Staying in Mljet between 11 July - 22 August a minimum of 7 nights apply, price available on request.

MULTI- CENTRE HOLIDAYS
Refreshed and relaxed, you can continue your journey to Split, just 1.5 hours away. Split provides a stunning contrast to Dubrovnik, a living history lesson. At the heart of the modern city, close to the harbour, is the old town, a medieval city which is built within the walls of the Palace of the Roman Emperor, Diocletian. These layers of living history lend it a much more haphazard feel, with a unique and vibrant atmosphere. It is less glitzy than Dubrovnik but has its own charming, eccentric character, highlighted by the beautiful seafront location.

Dubrovnik & Mljet
After spending some time sightseeing and enjoying the nightlife in Dubrovnik, Mljet is the ideal island retreat
A two centre holiday combining Dubrovnik with Korcula allows you to experience two of Croatia’s finest walled cities
It is hard to imagine a better combination - the gleaming marble streets of Dubrovnik’s old town contrasting with the sparkling turquoise waters of Mljet’s salt lakes; the pale grey stone of Dubrovnik’s city walls contrasting with the lush green of Mljet’s forests.
Korcula is much quieter and more relaxed than Dubrovnik and equally impressive, albeit in its own, more low-key fashion. Soak up the atmosphere and the history of both, knowing that a swim in the clear waters of the Adriatic is never far away. Another option is to combine a stay in Korcula with the resort of Orebic. Orebic is set on the Peljesac peninsula, which is only just over 1 mile across the water from Korcula. Apart from the easy ferry connection to Korcula, its main attraction is its sand and pebble beaches. The peninsula is only connected to the mainland by a tiny strip of land, and it is famous for its dramatic, arid landscape, punctuated by palms and cacti, where the vines which make its famous local wine are grown.
After walking the age-old streets of Dubrovnik’s old town and admiring her grand buildings, there could be nothing better than immersing oneself in the natural, unspoilt beauty of Mljet’s National Park. Mljet is the kind of place where you can be as active or as lethargic as you like. Keen ramblers can explore the island on foot, and it is easy to hire bikes to cycle around the park, or even a canoe to get around the lakes. Others may prefer simply to read a good book, taking a dip in the refreshing waters of the lake or the sea whenever they need to cool off.
There are plenty of pleasant walks in the area, including the steep hike uphill to the Franciscan Monastery, which dates back to the 15th century. From this vantage point, some 150 metres above sea level, you can enjoy fantastic views over Korcula town. Serious ramblers might want to go even further up to the summit of Mount St. Ilija.
MULTI- CENTRE HOLIDAYS
However you choose to spend your holiday you are sure to enjoy the contrast and perfect combination of Dubrovnik and Mljet. If you would like to spend more days in either place, please call our tailor-made department for a personalised quotation.

Dubrovnik & Sipan

Combine Dubrovnik with a stay on Lopud to enjoy one of the best beaches in the area. Culture and sunshine - a classic combination!
Combining the island of Sipan with Dubrovnik gives you the perfect blend of relaxation and sightseeing; history and beautiful scenery
Lopud is one of the three Elaphite islands to be inhabited. This small archipelago is set in the sparkling Adriatic, just a short distance off the coast. Lopud provides the perfect contrast to bustling Dubrovnik. It is close enough to allow for a convenient combination, with an easy ferry transfer between the two, and yet it is a world away in atmosphere.
In fact, you will be following in the footsteps of the wealthy merchants of Dubrovnik, who made their money trading in the city and then retired to their summer residences on Sipan during the height of the summer. It is easy to see why these merchants chose fertile Sipan, the largest of the Elaphite islands, and it is no less attractive to city-dwellers today. After spending some time sightseeing in bustling Dubrovnik, its beautiful scenery, lush vegetation, rich architecture and clean sea will be just as welcome as they were to the merchants of yesteryear.
Many people choose to spend a few days in Dubrovnik at the beginning of their holiday. There is so much to see and do that it can be a little overwhelming, so it makes perfect sense to concentrate on sightseeing and then retreat to the peace and quiet of Lopud for some serious relaxation.
Of course, if you prefer you can plan your holiday the other way round, and relax in Sipan first, and then when you are feeling completely refreshed you may feel more able to give your full attention to the amazing sights of Dubrovnik. At Anatolian Sky we pride ourselves on offering complete flexibility to our guests, so you can choose to add on extra nights in either Dubrovnik or Sipan to make your perfect holiday.
The atmosphere on Lopud couldn’t be more different from the hustle and bustle of Dubrovnik. It also happens to have one of the best beaches in the area, making it the ideal choice for serious sunseekers. Lopud’s renowned beach, Sunj, is one of the few sandy beaches in the region, and is popular with families and those who prefer to swim in shallow water.
Transfers will be a car transfer and a sea transfer. This may be by ferry or catamaran and will be confirmed at the time of booking.

Combining the historic city of Split with a stay on the glitzy island of Hvar brings together two of Croatia’s highlights in one fantastic holiday
Get away from the hustle and bustle of Split and escape to laid-back Brac, beloved of sun-seekers. A perfect holiday combination!
Split is a great place to begin your Croatian adventure and start exploring central Dalamatia. It is one of those cities which is simply bursting with energy and full of experiences to enjoy.
After a few days in the lively town of Split, absorbing the history and soaking up the culture, you may yearn for nothing more than to get away from it all, and to immerse yourself in the region’s beautiful nature. For those who seek complete relaxation, the Island of Brac provides an excellent contrast to bustling Split.
Simply walking through the old town will take you through a history lesson as you absorb the unique melange of Roman and Medieval architecture and monuments. History-lovers should not miss the Archaeological Museum, and art-lovers will be fascinated by the Mestrovic Gallery, dedicated to Croatia’s most famous sculptor.
Brac is easily reached by a convenient ferry, but is a world away in atmosphere. All of our hotels are in relatively quiet spots - in fact one is even in a monastery. Whether you choose the beautiful countryside and picturesque seafront setting of Supetar; the charming village and harbour-front of Postira, or the lovely pebble beach of Svetii Kriz, Brac is a place for total relaxation, enjoying the sunshine and the crystal-clear Adriatic water.
MULTI- CENTRE HOLIDAYS
After a few days’ sightseeing and soaking up the atmosphere of Split, you may well find the nearby islands calling to you from across the clear waters of the Adriatic. Hvar is one of the most popular of the Dalmatian islands, and is easily reached by a convenient ferry service. It has developed a reputation as the most glitzy of the islands, and draws the stylish yachting crowd with its upmarket bars and restaurants.
24
Split & Brac
Supetar and Postira are both sleepy, peaceful places, whereas the island’s busiest resort of Bol boasts a number of lively bars and restaurants making it a good choice for those who enjoy vibrant nightlife.
Venetian in influence, Hvar’s ornate buildings are built to a grand scale, with beautiful balconies and dreamy spires and towers. Small boats head out from the bustling harbour each morning to take sunseekers to the nearby Pakleni islands for sunbathing and swimming in the clear waters. As the sun goes down, the town comes to life, with its buzzing bars and mouth-watering restaurants.
Bol is also home to the beach, which is possibly Croatia’s most famous, Zlatni Rat (Golden Horn). It is a dramatic golden shingle beach some 530 metres long, which is unique as the tip of it changes shape and position depending on the prevailing wind.

This fantastic two country combination offers a winning blend of history and stunning scenery; beaches and crystal-clear waters
Combining the enchanting walled city of Dubrovnik, with a charming Montenegrin resort is a perfect two centre combination
After a few days’ sightseeing in Dubrovnik, what could be finer than to be driven south to the charming resort of Budva in Montenegro. It is just two hours away from Dubrovnik, and is one of the oldest Adriatic settlements.
The ancient walled city of Dubrovnik, set on a glittering bay in the Adriatic, with its red-roofed stone houses, looks so perfect that it is almost like a film set, its high crenellated city walls and fairytale fortresses appearing to rise out of the sea. Set off the coast are picturesque islands, lush with pine forests. The gleaming marble streets of the old town, the grand squares, charming steep-stepped passageways and picturesque monasteries and palaces, seem so well-preserved that they feel like an open museum.
Its picturesque old town is brimming in atmosphere, with its narrow streets, shady piazzas and grand buildings. It also boasts some of the best sandy beaches in the Adriatic, with a backdrop of dramatic mountain scenery.
After a busy few days’ sightseeing, you will be taken by car to Montenegro and the historic resort town of Kotor, just 1.5 hours’ drive away. The two historic cities have a similar ambience, except that Kotor is much more laid-back. You can choose to spend your time sightseeing, or simply head to one of the many beautiful swimming spots along the coast, and soak up the sun whilst admiring the views. At the end of your holiday you will be transferred by car back to Dubrovnik for your flight home.
This two-centre combination allows you to combine two beautiful countries, and two fascinating ancient coastal settlements, and has plenty to satisfy the sun-seeker too! Budva’s main beach, Mogren, is reached from the old town of Stari Grad. As you swim you can admire the views of the ancient city, with its backdrop of stunning mountain scenery. Those who want to escape the crowds can find quieter spots to sunbathe on the bays outside the town.
As always, with our tailor-made holidays, the prices here are shown simply as an example. You can choose which hotel in Dubrovnik you would like to stay in and if you prefer, you can choose to spend the second part of your holiday in Montenegro’s premier beach resort of Budva.
If you would like to vary the duration of your holiday or choose different hotels simply call our tailor-made holiday experts for a quotation.

DUBROVNIK Dubrovnik is sure to take your breath away - the pale stone of the ancient city walls and ornate spires stretching above the red roofs, surrounded by the sparkling waters of the Adriatic. It is no surprise that it is known as ‘the pearl of the Adriatic’ Dubrovnik’s picture-postcard looks and her idyllic location have been attracting visitors for centuries. The old walled city, with its charming piazzas and narrow streets linked by steep steps, is protected by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. For the best views over the coast, take a walk right around the city walls, which run for just under two kilometres and are 25 metres high at their highest point. As you wander the streets of the old town you will find new discoveries at every twist and turn. Start by walking along the Stradun, the main street, paved with gleaming marble and lined with enticing boutiques and welcoming cafes. Shop for local handicrafts, candied orange peel or fresh fruit at the morning market. One of the things which makes Dubrovnik so special is its seafront location. The old town is on a peninsula with beaches to either side, making it easy to combine sightseeing with swimming in the beautiful, crystal-clear waters and soaking up the sun.
Our Hotels Many of our hotels are in the area called Ploce, to the east of the old town, built in to the hillside overlooking the sea. To the west is the Lapad peninsula, where a number of our hotels are also situated, which is home to many of the beaches favoured by locals. There are beautiful views from all parts of the Dubrovnik coast, looking out to the islands nearby Lokrum, and the Elaphite islands to the north.

What to do in Dubrovnik You could easily spend several days exploring Dubrovnik’s old town, and sun-seekers will be more than satisfied with the town’s beaches, however, there is also plenty to discover further afield, whether you choose to travel by sea or overland. One of the most popular pastimes for those who stay here is to take a boat trip from the busy harbour. Boats head out every morning to visit the nearby islands. If you prefer something more energetic it is also possible to take a safari by sea kayak. A boat trip is the perfect complement to sightseeing; a way of relaxing whilst admiring the views. The islands also offer some of the best beaches and places to swim. Lokrum
This beautiful sub-tropical island lies just off the coast of Dubrovnik. Legend has it that Richard the Lionheart was once shipwrecked here. It’s a great place to walk in the woods, picnic and enjoy the lush vegetation. At the centre of the island lies an atmospheric old botanical garden, and it is also home to a ruined fort and a Benedictine Monastery. Enjoy a swim in the crystal-clear Adriatic from the rocky beaches, or try the warm saltwater lake. Lokrum also affords great views over the old town of Dubrovnik.
Make sure you... Visit the cloisters of the Franciscan and Domenican Monasteries, which remain places of serenity, and shaded havens from the bustling streets.
•
Don’t miss the Baroque Cathedral and treasury home to such gems as the head of St. Blaise and a hand of John the Baptist.
•
Stop for a refreshing drink of freshly squeezed lemonade in one of the attractive squares.
•
Pass through Luza Square where you will see one of Dubrovnik’s finest buildings, the Sponza Palace, a blend of Venetian Gothic and late Renaissance architecture. Today it houses the Memorial Room of the Dubrovnik Defenders, a moving reminder of the young lives that were lost during the siege of Dubrovnik in 1991 and 1992.
Three Islands Cruise - Elaphite Islands
The Elaphite islands lie just to the north of Dubrovnik not far from the coast. A relaxed boat trip visits all three inhabited islands in one day, allowing you to experience the laid-back pace of island life. Enjoy the beautiful scenery of Kolocep, Lopud and Sipan and don’t miss the opportunity to swim on Lopud’s famous sandy beach of Sunj. Explore the beautiful churches and discover the fading grandeur of Sipan’s once-opulent mansions and summer residences.

CAVTAT & MLINI The sleepy resort of Cavtat is set in a picturesque bay less than 10 miles from Dubrovnik - it is the ideal choice for those who want to make the most of the beautiful sunny climate and combine sightseeing with relaxation Cavtat sits dreamily on the southern shores of the Rat peninsula, looking across the bay to the wooded peninsula of Sustjepan. Traditional stone houses with their red roofs emerge from cypress and pine trees surveying the clear waters of the Adriatic. The seafront promenade, which is free from cars during the summer months, is shaded by mature palm trees. Here you will find a number of laid-back bars and restaurants, which line the waterfront, where you can enjoy everything from pizza to local Dalmatian specialities and freshly-caught fish. The rocky beach and seafront swimming and sunbathing terraces attract locals and visitors alike, to soak up the sun in this relaxed ambience. The water here is crystal-clear, and snorkelling is a popular pastime.
Connections The fascinating old town of Dubrovnik is just a short boat or taxi ride away, so the history and sights - not to mention the glittering nightlife and stylish restaurants - are within easy reach. The regular ferry service takes around 45 minutes between Cavtat and Dubrovnik’s old town. After a busy day exploring Dubrovnik, Cavtat is the perfect retreat, relaxed and welcoming. Day trips by boat to the other islands, which depart from Dubrovnik, are also easily accessible to those who stay in Cavtat. It really does offer the best of both worlds!

Transfers and Distances:
Dubrovnik Airport to Cavtat Resort: 5km (10 minutes by car).
CAVTAT & MLINI
Regular bus and ferry services operate between Cavtat and Dubrovnik.
36
Mlini is approximately 10 minutes’ drive from Cavtat, and 20 minutes from Dubrovnik, both of which are easily accessible by bus.
Cavtat Cavtat is built on the site of the ancient Greek settlement of Epidaurus, which later became a Roman colony, some remains of which can be seen in the gardens of the Hotel Croatia. Following an earthquake, its population moved north and became some of the first settlers of Dubrovnik, or Ragusa as it was then known. Cavtat was the birthplace of the famous Croatian painter, Vlaho Bukovac, and has a number of places of historic and cultural interest. Bukovac’s house is now an art gallery, set in beautiful gardens, and the baroque Church of St. Nicholas, which overlooks the seafront promenade, is also home to some interesting paintings. On a hill above the bay, sits the elaborate mausoleum of the prominent local shipping family, the Racic family, in the graveyard of the 15th century Chapel of St. Rok. It is constructed entirely from bronze and its interior depicts reliefs showing the different stages of life. The Rector’s Palace is the most imposing of the local buildings, notable for its Renaissance architecture, which today houses the collections and library of the local scholar, Baltazar Bogosic. At the end of the peninsula sits the picturesque Franciscan Monastery. Cavtat’s beautiful seafront location is ideal for those who like to walk. The promenade leads on to a path which runs for several kilometres along the seafront. Lush green forests reach down to the azure blue of the sparkling Adriatic, giving way to hidden coves, and the views across the bay are spectacular. A natural rock pool is cut into the seafront, which looks as if it may well have been here for centuries. The surrounding hillside is mostly given over to farmland, and local fishermen moor their boats in the small harbour.
Mlini
The village is surrounded by Mediterranean gardens, with olives, oleander, bougainvillea and fragrant lavender, as well as shady cypress and pine trees.
“Less than 10 miles from Dubrovnik and only a 10 minute drive from Dubrovnik Airport ”

CAVTAT CAVTAT & MLINI & MLINI
Mlini is a charming fishing village, situated between Cavtat and Dubrovnik. Its crystal-clear water and friendly atmosphere make it popular with locals and tourists alike. The small parish church of St. Hilarion and the chapel of St. Roch are both well worth a visit, but during the summer months it is the easily accessible sheltered beaches of pebble and sand which are the main draw.

ISLAND OF
LOPUD Lopud is a perfect choice for those who want to get away from it all and simply relax - an idyllic island retreat, within easy reach of Dubrovnik. Combine the two for a great two centre holiday Lopud’s charming harbour is overlooked by the 15th century Church of St. Mary of Spilica. It once served as a shelter for the islanders who hid here from local pirates. These days, the island is more likely to harbour those who seek a haven from the busy pace of 21st century life. The seafront promenade leads along the sweeping bay, which passes the small shingle and pebble town beach. To one side is the beautiful park, full of shady palm trees and fragrant pines. The promenade is lined with restaurants, boutiques and bars. Old stone houses and grand mansions lead up the hillside, with a backdrop of lush forests. In Ragusan times, this island had a population of four thousand - these days it is nearer 300. On the opposite side of the island is one of best beaches in the area, if not the whole Adriatic. The sandy beach of Sunj, shelves gently into the clear water, perfect for families. It is a short walk away from the town, or you can take one of the golf buggies which are for rent here. There isn’t an awful lot to do on Lopud, but that is really the whole point. It is the perfect place to swim, sunbathe and catch up with a good book in a beautiful setting.
Connections Ferry/catamaran services depart from Dubrovnik for the Elaphite islands (Sipan and Lopud) as well as for Mjlet and Korcula.

ISLAND OF
SIPAN Known as ‘the golden island’, Sipan is the largest of the Elafiti islands. It has a charming atmosphere with its quaint stone houses, grand mansions and ornate churches Sipan is the kind of place where your imagination can run riot - it is a fairytale island of olive groves, vineyards and abandoned monasteries and crumbling mansions. During Ragusa’s golden age, it was popular as a summer retreat for the city’s wealthy merchants, many of whom built grand summer residences here. It is fascinating to wander amongst them now and wonder about their history and the people who once lived in them. These days there are fewer than 500 inhabitants of idyllic Sipan and the pace of life here is much more laid-back. It is a haven for holidaymakers who want to relax and get away from it all. There are two main centres on the island at opposite ends - Sudurad, where Hotel Bozica is located, and Sipanska Luka. There are a number of charming restaurants, cafes and bars on the island and plenty of places to swim in the beautifully clear waters of the Adriatic. It is easy to take boat trips to the other islands, or to hidden coves on Sipan itself. Keen ramblers will enjoy walking in the fertile interior of the island. It is famous for its olive oil and wine, and you will see many fruits growing. You may well come across the ruins of the Napoleonic Fortress, not to mention a number of churches - there are over thirty on the island in total.
Connections Ferry/catamaran services depart from Dubrovnik for the Elaphite islands (Sipan and Lopud) as well as for Mjlet and Korcula.

ISLAND OF
MLJET One of Croatia’s most attractive islands, this idyllic paradise retreat is surrounded by pristine natural beauty. The crystal-clear turquoise waters make it the perfect place for a dip in the Adriatic Sea It is said that Ulysses stopped on the island of Mljet for seven years during his Odyssey and it is easy to see why. Life simply slows down here - a stay on Mljet is the perfect antidote to the fast pace of 21st century life. The small town is spread around the harbour, with a number of laid-back bars and restaurants, offering a choice of places to eat and drink, and a few shops. The crystal-clear water is surely some of the cleanest in the Adriatic - and the views across to the mainland and the neighbouring islands are absolutely stunning. What really sets Mljet apart, however, is its national park which takes up most of the island. You can explore the park on foot, with its lush forests and two large turquoise salt lakes, or you can choose to hire a bicycle or even a canoe. You can simply stop and swim in the lakes wherever you find an appealing spot. In the middle of the larger lake is the tiny island of St. Mary’s, which is home to a monastery and a couple of charming restaurants, reached by a boat service. The park is famous for being the only place in Europe where the mongoose lives in the wild.
Connections Ferry/catamaran services depart from Dubrovnik for the Elaphite islands (Sipan and Lopud) as well as for Mjlet and Korcula.

ISLAND OF
KORCULA The tiny Island of Korcula entices sunseekers with its attractive beaches, beautifully preserved medieval town and crystal-clear waters Home to the famous explorer, Marco Polo, who can lay claim to having been the first travel writer, Korcula is certainly a place to inspire. It is undoubtedly one of the best-preserved Medieval and Renaissance towns in the Mediterranean. Its buttresses, palaces, towers and spires are a picturesque blend of Gothic and Renaissance architecture, mostly dating from the 15th and 16th centuries. The magnificent Cathedral of St. Mark is, astonishingly, one of around 150 churches on the island which is still in use. Korcula is known for its stone-carving and you will see many fine sculptures by modern sculptors such as Krsnic and Mestrovic as well as their more ancient counterparts. As you enter the narrow streets of the old town through the dramatic Revelin Tower, with its ancient drawbridge, it is easy to imagine the generations of visitors who have gone before you. The old town itself is relatively sleepy, although Korcula also has a mix of livelier bars and a good choice of restaurants outside the old city. Korcula is just as famous for its wines and olive oil as it is for tourism, and in particular its strong, white wine is renowned. Keen ramblers will enjoy exploring the vineyards and olive groves of the lush interior. Taxi boats depart each morning for the nearby islands of Badija, or Proizd, with its pristine pebble beaches. Just one mile away across the water is the picturesque Peljesac Peninsula, known for its olive groves and vineyards. Regular ferries travel across to the resort of Orebic, a friendly holiday spot with attractive pebble and sandy beaches.

MAKARSKA & TUCEPI This sheltered coastline of clear waters and attractive beaches, with a backdrop of the impressive Biokovo Mountain range, is a popular spot for relaxed beach holidays The Makarska Riviera is a hidden gem, popular with locals for its excellent climate, beautiful scenery and charming beaches. The town of Makarska is at the centre of the region and boasts a long sand and shingle beach and pine-fringed promenades. The town grew up around a natural harbour, protected by the peninsula of Sveti Petar, (Saint Peter). Once it harboured pirates; now it welcomes upmarket yachts. Keen hikers will enjoy walking in the Biokovo Mountain range, the highest peak of which is the magnificent Sveti Jure (Saint George) at 1762 metres. For the less active, it is possible to drive to the peak to enjoy spectacular views from what is the highest peak on the Mediterranean. The mountain is protected as a National Park area.
Tucepi Tucepi is a popular holiday spot with its 4km long pebble beach lined with shady pine trees. A seaside promenade extends along the beach and plenty of water sports are on offer - a popular diving school is situated here. It is a laid-back resort town offering a good choice of restaurants and bars. Over the summer there is a festival of entertainment and cultural performances which take place in the harbour and surrounding villages, including traditional klapa singing groups. Meanwhile, just 45km away is Brela Beach, generally known to be Croatia’s best beach, 6km of coarse, pale sand, spread over pine-fringed bays stretching along the coast.

SPLIT Split is a magnificent city, its old town spreading along the seafront, a living history lesson, with a unique atmosphere and an engaging energy. Combine a stay here with the islands of Hvar / Brac for a magnificent two or three centre holiday Although Split is Croatia’s second largest town, the old centre has a delightfully relaxed, intimate feel. Its seafront cafes, spread along the palm-lined promenade, have a distinctly Mediterranean ambience. The old town feels like an open museum - the medieval buildings built into the structure of the Roman Emperor Diocletian’s Palace, so that corridors have become streets, and rooms are now entire houses. Today, some three thousand people still live within the old town ensuring that it feels very much alive, its friendly, vibrant atmosphere proving infectious to its visitors. There are some attractive beaches around Split, ensuring that sunseekers don’t miss out. To the west of the town is the Marjan Peninsula, with its mountain churches and botanic gardens. Split is a fantastic base for exploring central Dalmatia. Ferries depart from the port for the beautiful islands of Brac and Hvar, which can be visited on a day-trip. Just 15 miles to the north lies the beautifully preserved walled island city of Trogir, which can be reached by land or by the convenient taxi boat service. Its atmospheric palaces and narrow streets overhung by ornate balconies are an idyllic contrast to the hustle and bustle of Split.

ISLAND OF
HVAR Hvar is the perfect holiday spot relaxed by day and enchantingly chic by night. It also boasts of having more hours of sunshine than anywhere else in Croatia Hvar has far more than its fair share of good looks and charm. Wooded hills sweep down to meet the red roofs and pale stone walls of magnificent buildings, surveying the palm fringed harbour and sparking turquoise of the Adriatic. It is breathtakingly beautiful, its grand old buildings lending it a sense of gravitas. The magnificent Venetian architecture with ornate balconies and intricately carved spires and towers is picturesque in the extreme. It was once the wealthiest town in Dalmatia and Renaissance palaces shelter beneath the city walls, overlooked by a hilltop fortress. These days Hvar attracts a different kind of wealth with many impressive yachts moored in its beautiful harbour. There are some seriously swanky restaurants and plenty of stylish bars, however, Hvar still maintains an unassuming allure. There is a wide range of places to eat, many of which still provide great value for money. Hvar Town has some pebble beaches and there are plenty of rocky swimming places around the seafront promenade. Most people, however, take the small boats which leave every morning for the nearby Pakleni islands with their choice of attractive beaches - most of them pebble and shingle. Make sure that you head back to town in time to order a cocktail from one of the harbour-front bars and watch the sun set over the sea. Take a promenade along the seafront, past the stalls selling fragrant lavender, which is the main crop of the island, and decide where to have dinner. It is certainly worth exploring the fascinating buildings of the old town. During the summer months, the streets here are closed to cars, which adds to the evocative atmosphere of days gone by.

ISLAND OF
BRAC This beautiful island, known for its stunning white marble, is home to Croatia’s most famous and iconic beach, Zlatni Rat Brac is the third-largest island in the Adriatic and the perfect place to get away from it all. Hiring a car or a bike means that you can discover plenty of deserted beaches and quiet coves. As you head into its interior, you will see that many of the inland villages have long been abandoned. It makes an interesting excursion to head inland to the Museum of Brac in Skrip, where you can find out more about the island’s fascinating history, and learn just how tough life was for islanders in times gone by. If you want to experience the best views in the Adriatic, head for the highest point on the island, Vidova Gora. In fact at nearly 800m it is the highest point on any of the Adriatic islands. The views over the beach of Zlatni Rat and to the island of Hvar are absolutely spectacular. Bol is the main resort area of the island. Its main claim to fame is as the home of Croatia’s most-photographed beach, the long spit of golden shingle known as Zlatni Rat or ‘golden horn’. Its unique attribute is the fact that the tip at its end changes direction according to the prevailing wind and tides. The beach is a pleasant walk through shady woods from the harbour and main resort centre. By night, Bol is quite a buzzing place with a choice of lively bars and plenty of restaurants, set along its harbourfront. Set on the north coast of the island, the charming small town of Supetar is little more than a cluster of stone houses, which stretch around the harbour. There are plenty of beaches nearby, which shelve gently into the sea, making them especially popular with families. It is surrounded by attractive countryside, home to olive and citrus groves. It is the perfect place to get away from it all and enjoy complete relaxation.

TROGIR One of Croatia’s most attractive spots - a fairytale medieval walled city, set on an island, just oozing with character and charm Trogir is one of Croatia’s UNESCO World Heritage Sites and is a phenomenally well-preserved city, set on an islet nestled between the mainland and the coastline of the island of Ciovo, linked to both by bridges. First settled by the Greeks it owes its impressive architecture to a number of successive rulers with fine Romanesque, Gothic and Renaissance buildings. To one side you will find the remaining section of the city walls and the huge Genoese Kamerlengo Fortress. The old town is blissfully car-free, and is a fascinating place to explore, with its narrow streets, overhanging balconies and splendid churches and palaces. The city thrived during the Middle Ages, and was in its heyday from the 12th-14th centuries. You won’t be able to miss the stunning Cathedral of St. Lawrence, the highest building in Trogir, with its elaborate portal, covered with intricate carvings. Climb the 47 metre high bell tower for a magnificent view over Trogir and the surrounding coast. The terracotta roofs and stone walls, and the dramatic Renaissance and Gothic palaces combine to lend it a fairytale quality. The coast around Trogir is dotted with islands and tiny islets, making it a beautiful area to explore by boat. Take a trip out and enjoy the crystalclear waters and dramatic scenery. You will find attractive sandy beaches set amidst unspoiled natural surroundings, on the nearby islands of Drvenik Veli and Drvenik Mali.
TROGIR
For those who want to explore further afield, the fascinating city of Split is within easy reach, as is Sibenik to the north. This is a lovely base for a relaxed holiday to get away from the stresses and strains of 21st century living. Trogir has a limited amount of accommodation, so it is rare to get the opportunity to stay here and early booking is strongly recommended. There are a number of good restaurants in the town, as well as some relaxed bars and cafes.

SIBENIK A picturesque city set on the coast, with an impressive cathedral, surrounded by an archipelago of tiny islands Sibenik sits on a beautiful bay on the estuary of Krka, a lovely national park of outstanding natural beauty. It is connected to the open sea by a long channel, the entrance to which is guarded by the Renaissance fortress of St. Nicholas. The city is overlooked by a further three fortresses high in the hills above. Its most famous sight is the stunning Renaissance Cathedral of St James, one of the most important works of architecture in Croatia, and a UNESCO World Heritage site. The cathedral took more than a century to build and was worked on by five generations. It is the only building in Europe of its type, made exclusively from stone, and is set in an imposing square, one of the most beautiful in Croatia. The narrow streets of the old town are charming to explore with their cosy cafes and enticing boutiques. Šibenik is a sleepy city, barely on the tourist trail, but boasts no fewer than 24 churches and six monasteries. It is an interesting base for those who want to explore the surrounding coast. To the north lies the beautiful Šibenik Archipelago, which consists of some 242 islands, islets, reefs and cliffs. There are only 10 settlements on the islands. Perhaps the best known amongst them are Zlarin, known as the island of coral-divers; Krapanj, renowned for its spongedivers island of spongers and Prvić, once home to the rich noblemen of Šibenik. The sea here is crystal-clear and the tiny islands and beautiful scenery make it a paradise for keen swimmers. Away from the coast, the rich hinterland is home to a diverse landscape of lakes, rivers, mountains and a National Park. The region is known for its vineyards and its Babic wine, one of the best Croatian reds.

PLITVICE LAKES Croatia’s largest National Park and an area of outstanding natural beauty, with spectacular lakes and waterfalls The Plitvice Lakes National Park, the most-visited of Croatia’s National Parks is in the very heart of Croatia, in the region which connects the Adriatic coastal region, with the rich interior. Surrounded by mountains, it stretches over a huge area of almost 300 square kilometres. It has some 16 inter-connecting cascading lakes, separated by natural dams. The lakes are famous for their distinctive and constantly changing colours ranging through blue and green to grey and turquoise. There are a number of stunning waterfalls of up to 78 metres in height and fascinating caves, which can be visited. It is a beautiful spot to enjoy walking amongst pristine natural beauty, savouring the serene setting. Waterfalls cascade into the crystal-clear waters, surrounded by vibrant green vegetation and overlooked by dramatic mountains. It is the perfect spot to unwind and escape from the pressures of modern life. As you walk through the National Park, you may really feel that you have discovered heaven on earth. Despite its easily accessible setting, Plitvice has remained largely untouched by industrialization, and the fact that it is far away from pollution means that many species continue to exist here which pre-date man. It is one of the few areas in Europe where wild brown bears and wolves continue to live wild in significant numbers. The National Park is heavily forested and enjoys a huge variety of flora and fauna, including many different species of endemic plants, such as rare orchids. There are over 300 different types of butterfly which have been identified as well as many varieties of fish, birds, reptiles and other wildlife.
PLITVICE LAKES
There are a number of small settlements, made up of the distinctive low wooden houses prevalent in the region, where local traditions have been preserved. Staying here offers the opportunity of getting away from it all, and enjoying untouched natural beauty.

ZADAR Northern Dalmatia’s most picturesque city is a treasure trove of historic jewels. It has an alluring charm, surrounded by some of Croatia’s most spectacular scenery It is a shame that most tourists don’t make it as far as Zadar, as they are missing out on a real gem. This impressive walled city, set on a peninsula surrounded by the sparkling waters of the Adriatic, is just as pretty as Dubrovnik. The fact that it attracts far fewer tourists is a huge bonus for those who do make it to Zadar, it is bursting with character and has an unspoiled, authentic feel, which is very refreshing. Zadar’s history dates back some three thousand years. It was a Roman colony, later fought over by the Ottoman Turks and the Venetians. It is no surprise therefore that the townspeople set so much store on building their imposing defensive walls which date from the 16th century. The city feels a little like an open museum, its marble paved old town displaying the remains of the many civilisations which have lived in this lovely spot. There is a beautiful seafront promenade which runs along the coast, and is the perfect place for a stroll to admire the views. Don’t forget to try the local tipple of Maraskino, a sweet cherry liqueur. There are plenty of stylish bars and a good choice of trendy restaurants to enable you to make the most of the vibrant nightlife. For a change of scenery and atmosphere, take a boat trip out to one of the nearby islands, which lie just off the coast. Premuda is a favourite with keen divers, who will enjoy exploring the underwater cavern known as the cathedral and the submerged shipwreck.
ZADAR
Zadar is surrounded by National Parks, at the heart of one of Croatia’s most beautiful regions. It makes a great base for exploring the stunning natural scenery. Visit the Kornati islands, a beautiful archipelago of 140 uninhabited islands, islets and reefs or the Krka Waterfalls, set around a spectacular karst river with seven magical waterfalls. Also, nearby is the best known of Croatia’s National Parks, the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Plitvice Lakes. It is an extraordinarily rich forested landscape with sixteen lakes linked by cascading waterfalls.

ZAGREB The Croatian capital, Zagreb, is up and coming as a European city break destination, with an architectural beauty and thriving cultural scene to rival the likes of Budapest or Prague Zagreb lies at the crossroad of eastern and western Europe, the influences of both palpable. Swanky galleries and designer boutiques jostle for custom alongside cosmopolitan cafes and lively bars. With a population of just 800,000, Zagreb is smaller than the average European capital. It is compact too; most of the city’s main sites can be covered on foot. The medieval old or ‘upper’ town is as charming as one would expect, with its narrow cobbled streets. The newer centre, or ‘lower’ town, comprises landscaped gardens and grand government buildings. Zagreb’s imposing neo-Gothic cathedral, the Cathedral of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, is perhaps the city’s most famous landmark. The original building has been restored and added to as fire and earthquakes have taken their toll over the years, the overall effect however is still impressive, its twin towers instantly recognisable. Bypass the bright lights of the high street and head instead to vibrant Dolac market, the city’s main place of trade for more than 85 years. A colourful portrait of daily Croatian life, local traders sell food here mostly. It is also a handy spot for lunch, with several good value traditional restaurants located close by. Zagreb is blessed with an abundance of green space, its botanical gardens measuring 4.7 hectares in area and offering a blissful couple of hours’ relief from the hustle and bustle of city life. Maksimar Park is well worth a visit too. Named after its founder, Bishop Maksimilian, the park first opened in 1794 and is also home to Zagreb Zoo.

ROVINJ This picture-postcard town is one of Croatia’s most charming. Its narrow, cobbled streets and sunny seafront cafés attract well-heeled local and international visitors. It is the perfect choice for those seeking culture and history combined with some of the clearest sea waters in the Adriatic Rovinj, or Rovigno as it is known in Italian, is the most Italianate of Croatia’s cities. Originally an island, it was only joined to the mainland in 1763. It has been settled since Roman times and prospered throughout the Middle Ages and under Venetian rule, protecting itself from attack by concentrating development within the city walls. The narrow cobbled streets and higgledy-piggledy buildings are a pleasure to explore. Not surprisingly, Rovinj has attracted many artists and in the summer months you can see their works displayed all over the old town. The impressive campanile of the immense Church of St. Euphemia stands above the old town in a commanding position. The present building dates from 1725, and the huge 62 metre-high bell tower is a copy of the bell tower in St. Mark’s in Venice. Every year on 16th September, on the anniversary of her martyrdom, the town celebrates St. Euphemia with processions and the performance of plays. The quayside, with its grand Venetian buildings, is the place to enjoy a meal of fresh fish, whilst you admire the views. Even if you just settle for a coffee or a long, cold drink, it is a great place to soak up the atmosphere and appreciate the beautiful setting.
ROVINJ
Rovinj itself has a small, rocky beach, but there is plenty to tempt sun-seekers nearby. The Punta Corrente peninsula is home to protected parkland, where there are plenty of swimming places amongst the trees. Many choose, however, to take a trip to one of the tiny islands in the bay. Small boats leave regularly from Rovinj harbour. The most popular are Katerina and Andrea, which boast beautiful rocky beaches and exceptionally clear water.

POREC The pretty town of Porec dates back to Roman times and is the jewel that connects a string of popular tourist resorts along the western coast of the Istrian Peninsula The centrepiece is the UNESCO-listed 6th century Euphrasian Basilica. Exquisitely preserved, the beautiful gold mosaics will take your breath away. Make sure to visit too the Bishop’s Palace and baptistery, part of the wider complex. Reminders of the town’s Roman past include the remnants of two temples in Marafor Square on the site of what was once a forum. The Decumanus, the main street running east to west through the old town, was also the main thoroughfare during Roman times. Porec is a busy little town, which really comes into its own during the summer months. There is no shortage of restaurants and shops, with nightlife varied and lively. The tiny island of St Nicholas (Sveti Nikola) lies just off the coast of Porec and has been a popular bathing area since the late 19th century. Boats depart regularly from the town’s main promenade, and the islet offers ample opportunity for swimming and sunbathing, with plenty of shady areas. Beaches are mainly pebbly and backed lush pine and black oak forests, distinctive to this part of Croatia. Two resorts to the south of Porec, Plava Laguna and Zelena Laguna, are easily accessible and perfect for a change of scenery. The short and charming trip aboard the ‘tourist train’ is in itself an experience to savour!

AN INTRODUCTION TO
MONTENEGRO Dramatic mountain scenery, charmfilled medieval villages and pretty-asa-picture lakes, Montenegro offers a wealth of holiday experiences to far outweigh its size Montenegro is only 100km from top to bottom, but this Adriatic gem counts four national parks and two UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Its longest beach, Velika PlaĹža, measures over 8 miles in length, whilst its mountains average over 2,000 metres in elevation. Given its breath-taking landscapes, outdoor pursuits such as hiking and kayaking are amongst the most popular ways to explore Montenegro. Though if you would rather kick back and relax, the 200-mile coastline provides ample opportunity to do nothing but soak up the sun and bathe in crystal-clear waters. Beaches range from small, pebbly coves to sweeping bays fringed with golden sand. Cuisine in Montenegro is varied in influence, with nods to both the Mediterreanean - kebabs, olive oil and cured meats - and heartier fare more typical of the Balkans or Eastern Europe. Montenegro enjoys a quintessentially Mediterranean climate, with warm summers and mild winters. Temperatures up in the mountains are, however, noticeably cooler.
Our Hotels We have selected the Montenegrin resorts of Budva and Kotor, as well as a hotel in coastal Tivat, which we feel provide the perfect introduction to this up-and-coming holiday destination.
Connections Montenegro is just a short distance along the coast, to the south of her larger neighbour, Croatia, making driving between the two very easy. The main resorts are just over 90 kms from Dubrovnik.

Transfers and Distances
Transfer time by road from Dubrovnik to Kotor is approximately 1 hour 30 minutes and to Budva is approximately 2 hours.
Though not presently part of the European Union, there is a distinctly European feel about Montenegro’s main towns and resorts; to start with the official currency is the Euro. Several civilisations have left their mark on this tiny country, with influences ranging from Venetian to Ottoman. From architecture to food, there is a reassuring familiarity, yet Montenegro has a vibrant personality all of its own. Montenegro is one of the world’s newest countries, only having gained independence in 2006. Sightseeing highlights include the breath-taking bay of Kotor, formerly Europe’s southernmost fjord. With its numerous monasteries and churches, the area attracts pilgrims from far and wide. The boat trip out to Our Lady of the Rocks just off the coast of Perast, will seduce even the most hardened of nonbelievers, its 17th century baroque interior more art gallery than place of worship. Stari Bar, a small town set just inland from Bar, its modern-day counterpart, is a veritable open-air museum complete with a fortress dating back to the 11th century, plus an assortment of churches, a cathedral and even a Turkish bathhouse.
Two-centre holidays with Dubrovnik As a specialist tour operator, Anatolian Sky offers complete flexibility, and it able to tailor a holiday completely to your requirements. One of our most popular two centre holiday combinations is to combine a stay in Croatia’s southernmost city, Dubrovnik, with a holiday in Montenegro. The ancient walled city of Dubrovnik, is just 1.5 hours’ drive along the coast, making it an easy combination. For some examples of combinations and sample prices please see page 25 of this brochure. Remember that these are simply examples of the type of holiday you can have. If you prefer, you could choose different hotels and spend as little or as much time as you like in each place. You don’t need to limit yourself to two centres; if you wish you could continue on up the Croatian coast and explore more of her Adriatic treasures.

BUDVA This charming resort boasts some of the best beaches in the Adriatic, overlooked by the picturesque old town with a backdrop of imposing mountain scenery As resorts go, Budva is but a minnow, with just 18,000 inhabitants, yet this pretty coastal town is considered the tourism capital of Montenegro. At 3,500 years old, Budva is one of the oldest Adriatic settlements. The old town, Stari Grad, is set on a peninsula, leading historians to believe that it was originally an island. Budva was ruled by the Venetians for 400 years, as is obvious from the Gothic detailing to be found on several buildings here. Ramparts dating back to the fifteenth-century surround the medieval centre. Narrow streets connect shady squares and entire afternoons are lost exploring the numerous churches and monuments, or sipping crna kafa, strong black Turkish-like coffee, in laid-back cafés. By night, in summer, the bars in Budva and the neighbouring resort areas become more vibrant and the area really comes to life. Sightseeing highlights in Budva include the Church of Saint John, seat of the local bishop up until 1828. The Church of the Holy Trinity, built in 1804 and still operational, was modelled on one of he two churches at the Pod Ostrog Monastery, a celebrated Montenegro landmark. The beaches in and around Budva are amongst the country’s finest and sandiest. The main beach, Mogren, is directly accessed from Stari Grad, although it can be a little crowded, particularly in the height of the summer season. Look out for the famous ‘Dancing Girl’ statue, on the way from Stari Grad to Mogren; a perfect spot to take a picture, with a panorama of the old town as the backdrop.
BUDVA
You shouldn’t have to venture far to find a more peaceful spot, however, with several smaller beaches and coves just outside the main town ripe for discovery. Amongst them is Jaz Beach, a popular spot with campers 2.5km west of Budva, which is over 1 kilometre long and backed by lush Mediterranean vegetation.

KOTOR This breath-takingly beautiful coastal resort offers an enticing blend of magnificent scenery, fascinating history and clear, coastal waters A natural harbour nestled on the Adriatic coast, such is its cultural significance and stunning natural beauty, the region of Kotor is designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in its entirety. Kotor served as an important commercial and artistic centre during the Middle Ages, its schools of masonry and iconography gaining worldwide repute. Today, Kotor’s palaces, houses and Romanesque churches serve as a reminder of its once-illustrious past. Arguably the most impressive of these is St Tryphon Cathedral, originally constructed under Byzantine rule in the 8th century. Kotor’s old town is an undeniable highlight: an impressively preserved medieval gem perched on the glistening waterfront and dominated by a striking backdrop of snow-capped mountains. The old city walls are almost five kilometres in length and an attraction in their own right. You’ll need plenty of extra puff to scale the fortress of St Ivan. Unwind afterwards in one of the lively piazzas, lined with shops, restaurants, bars and cafés, or take a refreshing dip in the fjord. Make like a local and stop off at one of the many pontoons and makeshift beaches punctuating the narrow road that wends its way around the bay. Kotor is bordered by Lovcen National Park, and a trip to the village of Njegusi, to see the birth house of the Montenegrin Royal family is well worth the drive up the winding mountain road - although not for the faint hearted. Those with a head for heights should definitely pay a visit to Mausoleum of Njegos, Bishop-Prince of Montenegro, said to be Lovcen’s most important monument.
KOTOR
Kotor is set on the spectacular Boka Bay. The most recent development in the area is the glitzy Porto Montenegro Marina, which has been built in the area of Tivat, once home to the Austro-Hungarian Empire’s naval base, and now welcoming holiday-makers and sailors from around the world. It is around 20 minutes’ drive from Kotor itself, and is becoming known for its restaurants and bars, as well as for its sunny location. It’s the perfect spot to admire the views in style.

Transfers and Distances

The association encourages the highest standards in all aspects of tour operating.
Exclusive membership
AITO sets criteria regarding ownership, finance and quality which must be satisfied before new companies are admitted to membership. All members are required to adhere to a Code of Business Practice which encourages high operational standards and conduct.
Financial security
An AITO member is required to protect money paid by customers to the member for any holiday sold under the AITO logo. This protection applies to customers who are in the UK at the time of booking or to overseas customers who have booked directly with the member.
88
Members have to comply with UK Government Regulations in this respect. Members submit details of their bonding or guarantee arrangements to the Association on a regular basis.
Accurate brochures and websites
All members do their utmost to ensure that all their brochures and other publications, print or electronic, clearly and accurately describe the holidays and services offered.
Professional service and continual improvements
All members are committed to high standards of service and believe in regular and thorough training of employees. Members continually seek to review and improve their holidays. They listen to their customers and always welcome suggestions for improving standards.
Monitoring standards
AITO endeavours to monitor quality standards regularly. All customers should receive a post-holiday questionnaire the results of which are scrutinised by the Association.
Responsible tourism
All members acknowledge the importance of AITO’s Responsible Tourism guidelines, which recognise the social, economic and environmental responsibilities of tour operating. Those demonstrating their achievements beyond the pure acceptance of this principle are recognised by the award of 2 or 3 star status.
Customer relations
All members endeavour to deal swiftly and fairly with any issues their customers may raise. In the unlikely event that a dispute between an AITO member and a customer cannot be settled amicably, AITO’s lowcost Independent Dispute Settlement Service may be called upon by either side to bring the matter to a speedy and acceptable conclusion.

Private transfers
Please note: In the unlikely event of any significant future increase in fuel costs being passed on to us by the airline, we reserve the right pass it on to you as a fuel surcharge. Please see our booking conditions on page 91.
All of our holidays to Croatia include private return transfers and your driver will meet you at the airport to take you to your chosen accommodation. Please note that some islands are completely car-free and some resorts operate car-free zones in the summer, therefore, it may not be possible to deliver you to your hotel by car. If you have any difficulty in walking please make this clear at the time of booking so that we can advise you about the suitability of your chosen accommodation. Please note that the transfer times given on hotel pages are shown for guidance only and do not take into account the time it may take to drop off other guests at their accommodation en route to your own.
Transfers to the islands Details of all transfers to and from the islands will be confirmed at the time of booking as they depend on the times and availability of local transport. Transfers may be by ferry, boat or catamaran.
Transfers You will be transferred to/from the airport by car or minibus and on some occasions by coach, accompanied by our representative (for car or taxi transfer a representative is not always available). When a minibus or coach is used, it is always air-conditioned. We can also arrange private transfers on request. Those on a tailor-made or two-centre holiday will usually be transferred by taxi with an English-speaking driver. Please note that the transfer times given on hotel pages are shown for guidance only and do not take into account the time it may take to drop off other guests at their accommodation en route to your own.
Your hosts Our Representatives, whom we would like to call your hosts will be pleased to provide you with local information and answer any queries you may have. In addition the telephone number and address of our representative will be provided with your holiday itinerary so that you can contact them should any problem arise. In the unlikely event that you do experience any difficulties whilst in resort, it is essential that you contact our representative immediately in order that we may resolve any problems as quickly as possible. We cannot take responsibility for any such difficulties, unless our representative is informed. Please note that during the winter months we may have more limited rep services in some resorts, than in high season.
Accommodation Safety standards are as laid down by the country in question and their regulatory bodies. You should, therefore, take any necessary precautions. In some accommodation air conditioning is only in operation at certain times of the year and/or at set times of the day. Accommodation should usually be vacated by 12.00 noon on the day of your departure. This applies even if you are leaving on a night-flight which may leave in the early hours of the following morning. It may be possible for you to arrange a late check-out if you wish to vacate your room after this time. This is at the discretion of the hotel and there will usually be an additional charge payable locally. In some accommodation air conditioning is only in operation at certain times of the year and/ or at set times of the day. Where a hotel is described as having Internet access, either wireless or through a fixed connection, this is usually for those guests travelling with their own laptop. If you have any special dietary requirements then please inform us at the time of booking. Where possible we will try our very best to meet your request but please be aware that some hotels that we feature may not be able to provide these fully. We therefore recommend that any specific preferred foods are brought with you.
Last-minute bookings There may be a ticket on departure charge for bookings made within 14 days of departure. You will be advised of the charge at the time of booking. Flight Information We are delighted to offer our clients complete flexibility by offering a choice of regional airports and a full range of flight options which allows us to offer a bespoke service and enables us to personalise a package to suit your needs. Please call our friendly reservations team who will be able to give you the most up to date information and find your perfect holiday. Here is a summary of some of the differences between the flights which we are able to offer.
Scheduled flights These flights allow customers great levels of flexibility and a high standard of service. They include meals and most drinks are complimentary. Please ask at the time of booking about flight upgrades.
INFORMATION
Charter flights These are flights that may have restrictions in their durations and normally only offer 7 and 14 night options but they do enable us to offer direct flights from most UK airports. Please ask at the time of booking to confirm what is included in your flight, e.g. flight meals/ luggage allowance. Low-cost airlines Low-cost airlines when booked in advance can often offer the most competitive prices. These airlines do not include in-flight meals or drinks and baggage will need to be prebooked and paid in advance.
Special requests Special requests may be made prior to travel. Whilst we endeavour to meet them, unfortunately they are not guaranteed. Under no circumstances will they be accepted by us to form part of our contractual obligations and we will not accept any liability if they are not met.

We provide full financial protection for our package holidays that do not include a flight, by way of a bond held by ABTA The Travel Association (V4937).

3. ABTA
7. If we change or cancel your travel arrangements
We are a Member of ABTA, membership number G4234/V4937. We are obliged to maintain a high standard of service to you by ABTA’s Code of Conduct. We can also offer you an arbitration scheme for the resolution of disputes arising out of this contract. The scheme is arranged by ABTA and administered independently. It is a simple and inexpensive method of arbitration on documents alone with restricted liability on you for costs. The upper limit on claims is £5,000 per person and £25,000 per booking form.

Your request for arbitration must be received by ABTA within eighteen months of the date of return from holiday. For injury and illness claims, you can request the ABTA Mediation Procedure and we have the option to agree to mediation. Further information on the Code and ABTA’s assistance in resolving disputes can be found on www.abta.com
It is unlikely that we will have to make any changes to your travel arrangements, but we do plan the arrangements many months in advance. Occasionally, we may have to make changes and we reserve the right to do so at any time. Most of these changes will be minor and we will advise you or your travel agent of them at the earliest possible date.We also reserve the right in any circumstances to cancel your travel arrangements. For example, if the minimum number of clients required for a particular travel arrangement is not reached, we may have to cancel it. However, we will not cancel your travel arrangements less than 12 weeks before your departure date, except for reasons of force majeure or failure by you to pay the final balance. If we are unable to provide the booked travel arrangements, you can either have a refund of all monies paid or accept an offer of alternative travel arrangements of comparable standard from us, if available (we will refund any price difference if the alternative is of a lower value).

5. If you change your booking
8. If you have a complaint
Once your booking has been confirmed, if you wish to change your travel arrangements, we will do our best to meet your requirements where it is possible for us to do so. If we can make the required alteration e.g. to departure airport, date or duration, there will be an administration charge which we will advise you of prior to the amendment being confirmed. You should be aware that such charges may increase significantly as you get closer to your departure date so it is best to contact us as soon as possible. No charge will be made, however, for amendments which involve solely the addition of car hire, insurance or additional arrangements if extra clients are travelling on the same holiday. All amendments must be notified to us in writing by the person who made the booking or your travel agent. If the number of persons booked changes, the holiday price will be recalculated on the basis of the new party size.
If you have a problem during your holiday, please inform the relevant supplier (e.g. your hotelier) and our resort representative immediately who will endeavour to put things right. If the problem cannot be resolved you must obtain a Client Comment Form from the representative for completion. If your complaint is not resolved locally, please follow this up within 28 days of your return home by writing to our Customer Services Department at Anatolian House, 81 Warwick Road, Solihull,West Midlands, B92 7HP giving your booking reference and all other relevant information. Please request a Client Dissatisfaction Form which the party leader must complete with full and final details of any dissatisfaction. If you fail to follow this simple procedure we will have been deprived of the opportunity to investigate and rectify your complaint whilst you were in resort and this may affect your rights under this contract.
If the contract we have with you is not performed or is improperly performed by us or our suppliers we will pay you appropriate compensation if this has affected the enjoyment of your travel arrangements. However we will not be liable where any failure in the performance of the contract is due to: you; or a third party unconnected with the provision of the travel arrangements and where the failure is unforeseeable or unavoidable; or unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised; or an event which we or our suppliers, even with all due care, could not foresee or forestall. Our liability, except in cases involving death, injury or illness, shall be limited to a maximum of three times the cost of your travel arrangements. Our liability will also be limited in accordance with and/ or in an identical manner to (a) The contractual terms of the companies that provide the transportation for your travel arrangements. These terms are incorporated into this contract; and (b) Any relevant international convention, for example the Montreal Convention in respect of travel by air, the Athens Convention in respect of travel by sea, the Berne Convention in respect of travel by rail and the Paris Convention in respect of the provision of accommodation, which limit the amount of compensation that you can claim for death, injury, delay to passengers and loss, damage and delay to luggage. We are to be regarded as having all benefit of any limitation of compensation contained in these or any conventions. You can ask for copies of the transport companies’ contractual terms, or the international conventions, from our offices: Anatolian House, 81 Warwick Road, Solihull, West Midlands, B92 7HP, Tel: 08448 75 76 73. Under EU law (Regulation 261/2004) you have rights in some circumstances to refunds and/ or compensation from your airline in cases of denied boarding, cancellation or delay to flights. Full details of these rights will be publicised at EU airports and will also be available from airlines. However reimbursement in such cases will not automatically entitle you to a refund of your holiday cost from us. Your right to a refund and/or compensation from us is set out in clause 6. If any payments to you are due from us, any payment made to you by the airline will be deducted from this amount. Complaints against airlines should be lodged by calling the CAA’s Consumer Advice line on 0207 7453 6888
10. Prompt assistance in resort If the contract we have with you is not performed or is improperly performed as a result of failures attributable to a third party unconnected with the provision of the services, or as a result of failures due to unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised, or an event which we or our suppliers, even with all due care, could not foresee or forestall, and you suffer an injury or other material loss, we will offer you such prompt assistance as is reasonable in the circumstances.
11. Passport, visa and immigration requirements Your specific passport and visa requirements, and other immigration requirements are your responsibility and you should confirm these with the relevant Embassies and/or Consulates. We do not accept any responsibility if you cannot travel because you have not complied with any passport, visa or immigration requirements. Non British passport holders must refer to the embassy of the country they wish to visit to establish what (if any) visas they require. We recommend that you check passport and visa entry requirements before booking your holiday.
12. Force Majeure We will not pay you compensation if we have to cancel or change your travel arrangements in any way because of unusual or unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control. These can include, for example, war, riot, industrial dispute, terrorist activity and its consequences, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, adverse weather conditions, epidemics and pandemics, unavoidable technical problems with transport.
13. Your responsibility • Check-in for both outward and return flights is at least 2 hours prior to the departure times shown on the travel documents. The company can accept no responsibility for clients who arrive late for the check in and miss their flight as a result, nor can we accept responsibility for any loss by you of your holiday/ flight travel tickets, vouchers or coupons. • If you have booked flight-only, it is very important that you reconfirm your return flight at least 48 hours before departure. The company can accept no responsibility for clients who fail to meet this requirement and as a result miss their return transfer/flight due to a time change or similar circumstances. • All clients undertake to behave with propriety and in such a manner as in no way to cause or be likely to cause damage, distress, danger or annoyance to other clients, property and/or any third party. Please note that we reserve the right to terminate without notice the holiday arrangements of any client who, in our absolute discretion, behaves in a way which is disruptive and affects the enjoyment of other holidaymakers, or in a way which threatens to cause or does cause distress, annoyance, damage, or danger to Anatolian Sky staff, customers or to our suppliers. In the event of such termination no compensation will be paid and the client will be liable for any costs incurred as a result of their behaviour or of the termination of this contract. Airlines have the right to refuse to carry, at the absolute discretion of the captain, any passenger who they feel for whatever reason may be disruptive to fellow passengers or airline staff.
14. Flight delays If there is a significant flight delay, the airline should provide you with refreshments according to the time of day. Travel insurance does offer cover against extensive delays and it is a condition of booking that you purchase such cover.
15. This brochure This brochure is our responsibility, as your tour operator. It is not issued on behalf of, and does not commit the airlines mentioned herein or any airline whose services are used in the course of your travel arrangements. Please note, in accordance with Air Navigation Orders, to qualify for infant status a child must be under 2 years of age on the date of its return flight. We have taken every care to ensure the information in the brochure is correct at the time of publication. However, we are sure you will appreciate that subsequently minor alterations may arise. In such cases (and if we are forewarned) we will make every effort to advise you as soon as reasonably possible.
INFORMATION
(iii) Changes in transportation costs, including the cost of fuel, dues, taxes or fees chargeable for services such as landing taxes, embarkation or disembarkation fees at ports and airports and exchange rates mean that the price of your travel arrangements may change after you have booked. However, there will be no change within 30 days of your departure. We will absorb and you will not be charged for any increase equivalent to 2% of the price of your travel arrangements, which excludes insurance premiums and any amendment charges. You will be charged for the amount over and above that, plus an administration charge of £1.00 per person together with an amount to cover agents’ commission. If this means that you have to pay an increase of more than 10% of the price of your travel arrangements, you will have the option of accepting a change to another holiday if we are able to offer one (if this is of equivalent or higher quality you will not have to pay more but if it is of lower quality you will be refunded the difference in price) or cancelling and receiving a full refund of all monies paid, except for any amendment charges. We will consider an appropriate refund of insurance premiums paid if you can show that you are unable to transfer or reuse your policy. Should you decide to cancel for this reason, you must exercise your right to do so within 14 days from the issue date printed on your final invoice. Should the price of your holiday go down due to the changes mentioned above, by more than 2% of your holiday cost, then any refund due will be paid to you. However, please note that travel arrangements are not always purchased in local currency and some apparent changes have no impact on the price of your travel due to contractual and other protection in place.
In accordance with EU Regulation 2111/2005 we are required to advise you of the actual carrier operating your flight/connecting flight/transfer. We will do this at the time of booking. Any changes to the actual airline after you have received your tickets will be notified to you as soon as possible and in all cases at check-in or at the boarding gate. Such a change is deemed to be a minor change. Other examples of minor changes include alteration of your outward/ return flights by less than 12 hours, changes to aircraft type, change of accommodation to another of the same standard, changes of airport between Gatwick, Heathrow, Luton and Stansted. If we make a major change to your holiday, we will inform you or your travel agent as soon as reasonably possible if there is time before your departure. You will have the choice of either accepting the change of arrangements, accepting an offer of alternative travel arrangements of comparable standard from us if available (we will refund any price difference if the alternative is of a lower value), or cancelling your booked holiday and receiving a full refund of all monies paid. In all cases, except where the major change arises due to reasons of force majeure, we will pay compensation as detailed below:
