Croatia
Croatia is a fast-growing European travel destination, as Americans are discovering a destination that Europeans have visited for decades. It has some of the most popular beaches in Europe, with the numerous islands offshore considered to have the best beaches. Croatia is also known for its history and natural beauty, offering opportunities for outdoor activities such as hiking, kayaking, and mountain climbing at its many national parks such as Plitvice Lakes. It also offers the chance to learn about Croatian history by visiting its many walled cities (such as Dubrovnik, Trogir, and Korcula), Roman-era buildings (of which Diocletian's Palace is perhaps the best known), and religious buildings such as Zagreb Cathedral in the country's exquisite capital.
Slovenia
For such a small nation, Slovenia, at the crossroads of Central and Eastern Europe, offers so many distinct vacation opportunities. People who want a city getaway will fall in love with Ljubljana, the capital and largest city. Winter sports enthusiasts will be right at home on the ski slopes near Lake Bled and nearby Lake Bohinj. A countryside getaway wouldn't be complete without a tour of Styria and the culturally significant Lasko Valley. Finally, a summer getaway is easily within reach if you sun yourself on the beaches of the Slovenian Riviera in towns such as Koper, Piran, and Portoroz.

Zagreb
Zagreb is the cultural, scientific, economic, political and administrative center of Croatia. It is known as the City of Museums, as there are more of them per square foot than any other city in the world. Zagreb is a vibrant, modern destination with a variety of shops, quality restaurants and sports and recreation facilities. The historical part of the city to the north is comprised of the Upper Town and Kaptol, a medieval urban complex of churches, palaces, museums, galleries and government buildings. Of particular note is the breathtaking Gothic-style Zagreb Cathedral, from which the entire city was born.

Ljubljana
Ljubljana, long overlooked by American travelers in favor of adjacent European capitals like Vienna and Budapest, is now a city on the rise. Visitors only need a few moments to walk the pedestrian-only streets in the city center to feel the old-world historic charm, coupled with the youthful energy exuding from the local university population. Beautiful and vibrant, travelers will quickly learn that Ljubljana has a lot to offer to all who visit. You can sip a cup of coffee and enjoy live music in the Metelkova mesto commune, sail lazily along the winding Ljubljanica River, browse art galleries and take in a ballet, all within walking distance from each other.

In the middle of the lake is a small island with the picturesque Assumption of Mary Church being the sole building standing on its shores. Be sure to try a delicious Bled cream cake, sail away in a traditional pletna boat, and ring the 'wishing bell' at the church on Bled Island. Whether you're looking for a winter or summer getaway, the area in and around Lake Bled offers so much to visitors.
