Highlights of Croatia with Plitvice, Self-Drive (Multi country)

Start & end in Split 11 days Up to 4

About this trip

This is a self-drive route through Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, taking in Dubrovnik, Plitvice, Split and Mostar over 11 days at your own pace. You're behind the wheel throughout, with the freedom to linger in a place or push on when you've seen enough.

Expect medieval old towns, lake scenery and coastal drives, plus a crossing into Bosnia and Herzegovina to see Mostar. The route also runs through Zagreb and the town of Biograd na moru on the Adriatic coast.

It's set up as a private, self-guided trip, so there's no group to keep pace with — just you, the car and the route.

What you'll do

  • Wander the medieval old town of Dubrovnik
  • Walk among the waterfalls and lakes of Plitvice National Park
  • Explore Split's old town and Roman-era streets
  • Cross into Bosnia and Herzegovina to see Mostar and its Old Bridge
  • Drive the coast road to Biograd na moru
  • Take in Zagreb's mix of historic and modern streets
Good to know
  • Self-drive throughout, so you'll need to be comfortable driving in Croatia and crossing into Bosnia and Herzegovina
  • Private and self-guided — pace and stops are up to you
  • Rated easy, and suited to families or those wanting a relaxed road trip rather than a packed schedule
