Croatia is an outstanding holiday destination. And on a scooter it’s even better!

Croatia, the unspoiled gem at the Adriatic Sea! Since the end of the Austro-Hungarian regime, Opatija has been well-known as a top tourist destination. The town's clear water, good food and fantastic coastal roads along all those wonderful bays attract many visitors. It’s our home base on this tour.

Exploring the peninsula of Istria, we visit the Lim canal, famous for its mussels and oysters, and also pay a visit to the South of the peninsula, where we stop to see the ancient Roman Pula Arena. On our ride to Slovenia, we visit the Postojna Caves, the world’s second-largest limestone caves open to tourists. Unfortunately, we don‘t have enough time to go to all of Croatia‘s 1,244 beautiful islands but, of course, we will get to see the two most beautiful ones! We cross the crystal-clear waters by ferry from Brestova to the island of Cres and then on to Krk, which is the largest of all these islands.

We complete our scooter tour with a wonderful ride to the northern part of Croatia, to Risnjak National Park, and enjoy the local cuisine there.

Why have we already booked our third scooter tour with Edelweiss? Because they are such good fun! Paul is a keen motorcyclist, but I don‘t like to ride so fast, so scootering is something both of us can share and enjoy. Staying at one base, you get the chance to explore an area. The guide leads you out every day on the best and most scenic routes with no pressure, good food, and coffee stops. The riding can be long and challenging and you need to be experienced on 2 wheels, not a beginner. So if you, like we, want to capture the retro spirit, this could be a great holiday for you!

We had the best time on our very first (certainly not last!) tour with Edelweiss. A great intro to touring via scooter; we're hooked! Jan was so patient and encouraging and funny as a guide. We loved learning about all our stops and the history of the country. We also really appreciated how the tour was tailored to follow the good weather. Great flexibility to make sure the riders had the best experience. Amazing group as well. It made such a difference. The meals together were some of our favorite parts of our trip.
