Adriatic Discovery – Slovenia, Croatia & Italy
Moments of relaxation are paired with immersive cultural experiences across this eight-day single-centre escape to Italy, Slovenia and Croatia’s finest Istrian cities.
Embrace the diverse cultural influences and memorable coastal landscapes of three Istrian countries, Italy, Slovenia and Croatia, with a memorable break on the glorious Adriatic Coast. Starting with a flight to Venice, you’ll be introduced to the charming Slovenian resort town of Portorož, home to award-winning wellness centres fed by the Adriatic Sea and its nearby saltpans. A guided tour of Slovenia’s baroque capital, Ljubljana, follows ahead of a stop at the sprawling Postojna Caves for views of its magnificent rock features. You can then tailor your time in Slovenia with a border-crossing optional excursion into the Istrian countryside, taking in the fairytale towns of Grožnjan and Motovun.
Mark the half-way point of your tour with a tour of Trieste, the ‘Vienna by the Sea’, and elegant Miramare Castle for a fascinating insight into Friuli’s Austrian heritage. Next, take in enchanting Lake Bled, which promises some of Slovenia’s most impressive scenic vistas, and enjoy enlightening stops in the surrounding towns. Round out your week-long escape with time to explore two Istrian gems, Pula, with its magnificent Roman landmarks, and Rovinj, a Venetian-inspired harbour town. Make the most of a few final moments of relaxation and tick any last experiences off your travel wish-list in Portorož before returning to the UK.

Itinerary
Kick your Adriatic getaway off with a flight to Venice, meet your friendly tour manager and head west to Portorož, a coastal spa town on the Gulf of Trieste. After checking into your hotel, enjoy a first night at leisure with some time to explore the town’s waterfront promenade, and settle in for dinner at the hotel.
Have an early breakfast at your hotel this morning ahead of a full day’s excursion to the Slovenian capital, Ljubljana.
Start the day in Prešeren Square, the centre of the city’s historic old town, for an introduction to life in Ljubljana and views of its magnificent Franciscan church. After some time to browse the riverside shops and street markets, cross the Three Bridges to Mestni Trg (Town Square) for stops at the city’s exquisite baroque town hall. Marvel at Ljubljana’s hilltop castle ahead of a stroll along the Ljubljanica waterfront which will showcase the city’s famous baroque bridges and ornate waterside churches. Finally, round out your city exploration at the market-laden Breg Embankment, a lively river promenade.
The excursion will then continue underground to the popular Postojna Caves, a sprawling 24-kilometre network of tunnels which have been formed over the centuries by flowing water. Explore the passages aboard a unique subterranean railway and keep an eye out for the intriguing 'baby dragons’ (cave-dwelling salamanders) that live within. On your underground adventure, you’ll pass ‘Brilliant’, an impressive five-metre-tall limestone stalagmite, as well as several secluded lakes and breath-taking rock features.
Later, return to the resort for an evening at leisure and dinner.
Today, you’ll have a full day at leisure in Portorož to spend as you see fit, perhaps unwinding on the beach or visiting the town’s forma viva, a Slovenian open-air sculpture exhibition.
If you’d prefer a more active day, you can venture into the Istrian countryside on an optional tour of Grožnjan and Motovun. As you travel through rolling hills and thriving Croatian vineyards, you’ll see why Istria is often called ‘Little Tuscany’ with plenty of breath-taking sights to enjoy en route.
Your first stop today, enchanting Grožnjan, is one of the most picturesque towns on the peninsula and you can make the most of your time here with an easy-going exploration of its historic centre. Browse a selection of delightful independent shops, sample locally sourced olive oil, and perhaps enjoy a two-course meal and wine-tasting with your fellow travellers at a traditional konoba, a Croatian tavern-style restaurant (payable locally). Otherwise, you’ll be free to find lunch on your own account.
This afternoon, continue to the mountain village of Motovun, set amongst Istria’s magnificent hillside landscapes. Known for its remarkably well-preserved Medieval architecture, this town is one of Istria’s most picturesque destinations and you’ll be free to take in its pretty cobbled streets and historic architecture at your own pace. While here, be sure to wander around one of the quaint street markets and sample one of the region’s world-famous truffles, which are farmed in Motovun’s surrounding woodland areas.
Later, return to the hotel for dinner.
This morning, have breakfast at the hotel before heading north across the Italian border to elegant Trieste, known by some as ‘Vienna by the Sea’. This city, a former free port of the Habsburg empire, boasts a distinctly Austrian atmosphere, and you’ll experience it first hand with a guided tour.
Start your exploration at the Piazza Unità, the city’s lively main square, where you’ll enjoy your first taste of the city’s opulent Austro-Hungarian architecture. You’ll then walk to the nearby Piazza della Borsa to witness Trieste’s extraordinary former stock exchange housed in a Greek-inspired, neoclassical building. Discover the city’s historic importance as an economic hub with a walk along the Canal Grandé, which connects its bustling harbours with the inland commercial districts. Learn about the city’s role as a centre for the world coffee trade and discover how this inspired its lively café culture. Your final two stops in Trieste, the Roman amphitheatre and its nearby Cathedral, will then highlight the diverse range of cultural and religious influences that have shaped the city. Coming to the end of your tour, you can embrace the city’s culinary offerings with a small amount of free time for lunch at one of its al fresco restaurants.
This afternoon, continue north through the lively towns of Barcola and Grignano, to the magnificent Miramare Castle. This breath-taking estate, built on the Gulf of Trieste, is a marvel of 19th-century engineering having transformed a previously barren stretch of rugged sea karst into a palatial 22-hectare landmark. You’ll have the chance to explore the castle’s eclectic collection of original furnishings, ornate interiors and imposing facades before enjoying panoramic views over the Mediterranean from its manicured garden terraces.
Head back along the coast to Portorož for the evening at leisure and tuck into dinner at the hotel.
Today, after a leisurely hotel breakfast, you’ll be free to spend the day at your own pace in Portorož. Consider paying the resort’s spa, Terme Portorož, a visit for a dip in its thermomineral swimming pools. Fed by the town’s nearby saltpans and clear Mediterranean waters, these well-appointed spa facilities are well-placed to provide a rejuvenating break in between excursions. The nearby Meduza Beach is also an option, and you can relax with a stroll along its waterfront promenade or soak up the sun on its golden sands.
If a more active day is calling, consider wandering around the bars, restaurants and shopping areas that line Portorož’s centre or head further afield to nearby Piran for its Venetian architecture.
This evening, dinner will be served at the hotel.
Have breakfast at the hotel this morning, ahead of a full day at leisure in idyllic Portorož. If you’d prefer a more active day, board a coach for a wish-list optional excursion to beautiful Lake Bled.
Your first stop, the resort town of Bled, is ringed by forested hills and offers a range of memorable viewpoints, looking out over the lake’s still waters. Take in Bled’s delightful alpine vistas, with its central island crowned by a Baroque church, and take in Bled Castle, which overlooks the town from a lofty perch on the opposite shore. You’ll then have time to explore at leisure, perhaps with a walk along the shore to one of the neighbouring towns or find lunch amongst Bled’s lakeside resorts. If you’d like, you can take gondola-like pletna across to the island (payable locally), or even row yourself!
Reconvene with your fellow travellers and complete the day with free time and dinner in your Portorož resort.
Mark your final day on the Adriatic Coast with a tour of the Istrian Peninsula’s southernmost cities, romantic Rovinj and idyllic Pula. After breakfast, board a coach for the journey into Croatia, taking in a few final views of Istria’s bucolic country landscapes.
After some time on the road, arrive in stunning Rovinj, Croatia’s Venice-like Adriatic gem. You’ll have time here to explore the city’s narrow streets and pastel-coloured buildings before heading up to the hilltop Baroque church of St Euphemia. Here, you can take in the church’s cloisters and soak up exquisite views over the city’s natural harbour or nearby Katarina Island. Next, return to the harbourfront below, perhaps to enjoy a well-deserved ice-cream, before reboarding the coach for the next leg of your journey.
Your second stop today, bustling Pula, is Istria’s provincial capital and is famed for its rich Roman heritage. Upon arrival, set out in the company of an expert local guide for a introduction to its most intriguing heritage sites, starting at the Pula Arena, an ancient amphitheatre with magnificent arched facades. Explore the towering landmark, now home to underground wine and olive oil cellars, and learn about the enduring legacy of Roman culture on the Istrian Peninsula.
Continue to the Arch of the Sergii, which was built in 29 BCE, with a walk through the city streets before completing the afternoon’s tour with a stop at Roman Forum. Crowned by the imposing Temple of Augustus, this historic district features a number of intricate mosaics which you can admire at leisure. If you have the chance before returning to the hotel, be sure to experience the Zerostrasse, a unique network of underground streets, tunnels and wartime bunkers, which occasionally hosts art exhibitions and concerts.
This evening, reconvene at the hotel for a final dinner on the Adriatic.
Following a leisurely final breakfast in Portorož, drive to Venice airport, bringing your Adriatic escape to an end with a flight back to the UK.

Accommodation
Further information
The transfer time from the airport to your hotel is approximately 1 hour 50 minutes.
You are permitted to take one suitcase per person on the aircraft, which should not exceed 23kg.
British citizens require passports when travelling overseas and this must be valid for six months beyond the date you return. If you are not a British citizen, you may need a visa for the country/countries you are visiting (please contact the respective embassies to check and to apply).
If you have notified us of any special requirements, please check that they have been noted and acknowledged. This is especially important with any dietary needs you may have.
The majority of our tours involve a certain amount of walking, including a short walk from the coach stop to the town, attraction or venue you're visiting. If you are bringing a wheelchair, please let us know at the time of booking so that appropriate arrangements can be made. In many developing countries access is sometimes not as easy as at home. Should you have walking difficulties, getting around monuments and attractions may be harder and, in some cases, impossible. Should you have any concerns whatsoever please do contact us prior to travel.
Occasionally, for operational reasons, we may have to change the order of the excursions on your holiday. The final day-by-day itinerary will be confirmed on your Final Travel Documents, which you will receive approximately three weeks prior to your departure.
Should circumstances require, we reserve the right to accommodate you in alternative hotels, of a similar standard, nearby. Full details of your hotels will be sent with your Final Travel Documents.
In Slovenia, there is a tourist tax of €3.50 per person per night. This cost is not included in the price of this tour, and is payable locally.
Travelling to Europe
Rules may have changed since you last travelled to European Union countries as well as Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland. The following are useful guidelines which will help you prepare for your next adventure. You do require government issued passport to travel.
Names - It is very important that all passenger names are exactly as per your passport although we do not require middle names.
Passport - Your passport must meet two requirements to travel to an EU country and to Switzerland, Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein. It must be: Less than 10 years old on the day you arrive (please check the "date of issue") and valid for at least 3 months after the day you return home (please check the "expiry date").
Visa - You do not need a visa for short trips to most EU countries, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland. You’ll be able to stay for up to 90 days in any rolling 180-day period.
The EES scheme commenced on the 12th October 2025, and the phased implementation will last until 9 April 2026. From 10 April 2026, EES will be fully operational at all EU borders. - the latest information can be found at https://travel-europe.europa.eu/ees/ltr
EES is a new digital border management system for registering non-EU nationals travelling for a short stay, each time they cross the external borders of most European countries. Once introduced, when you go through passport control on arrival, as well as producing your passport for checking, you will also have your photograph taken and fingerprints scanned. The system will register your entry on arrival and your exit when departing. You will only need to do this on your first entry into Europe after the scheme starts.
For those travelling via Eurostar, there is a dual British and French/Belgian border in operational at St Pancras International. Therefore the EES system will be in place at the station, you will not need to be checked again on arrival at the other side. For further information please visit the https://www.abta.com/tips-and-advice/planning-and-booking-a-holiday/upcoming-changes-travel-europe here.
Please note: Irish passport holders or British Passport holders with an EU residency are currently excluded.
Following the UK's withdrawal from the European Union, changes have been planned which affect the eligibility of citizens of the United Kingdom to have visa free travel to the EU. ETIAS travel authorisation is a new entry requirement for visa-exempt nationals travelling to any of the European Union and Schengen counties.
The ETIAS system is not live yet - the latest information can be found at www.etias.com. We recommend keeping yourself updated on the planned commencement date and, once live (and if applicable to you), apply for your ETIAS in good time prior to travel.
Newmarket Holidays will not be able to undertake ETIAS applications on your behalf, so have instead instructed the services of the Travel Visa Company to provide help, should you need it. You can find more information about this service here.
Please note: ETIAS will not be required for UK citizens travelling on our UK and Ireland tours.
Unless stated otherwise, any suggested free‑time optional excursions, activities, attractions, meals or entertainment are not included in your holiday price and may be subject to local charges.
