Listed on the register of UNESCO World Heritage Sites, Diocletian's Palace is the gem of the Old Town, a pedestrianized zone which includes the beautiful riverwalk called Riva. Buzzing shops, restaurants, and bars are situated alongside monuments and buildings dating from the Roman era. The dramatic backdrop of mountains bleeds into the sea, giving an atmospheric setting to this stunning city.

3 nights in Dubrovnik
Dubrovnik is aptly surnamed the 'Pearl of the Adriatic.' It is one of the most beautiful cities on the Croatian coast. Many buildings in the old city center testify to its glorious past and its Venetian influence. The ancient walls of Dubrovnik girdle a perfectly preserved complex of public and private, sacred and secular buildings representing all periods of the city's rich history, beginning with its founding in the 7th century. In 2019, Dubrovnik celebrates 40 years of being listed on UNESCO's register of World Heritage Sites. Nowadays, Dubrovnik is a tranquil touristic and cultural center hosting many musical, art and theater events year round.
Explore the Dubrovnik's Old Town, Lapad, Babin Kuk, Gruz, Church of St. Blaise, Dubrovnik Cathedral, Fort Bokar, Fort Imperial, Minceta Tower, Fort of St. John, Lokrum Island, Rector's Palace, Luza Square, Pile Gate, Ploce Gate, and so much more.
3 nights in Valletta (Malta Island)
Malta is one of the best beach destinations in Europe. It has a laid back tropical vibe with picture perfect beaches and amazing diving. Whether you want to lounge at the beach, explore the depths of the Mediterranean, or wander around a 5,000-year-old necropolis, you can do it here. The capital, Valletta, was built by the Knights of St John and has a rich historical past. It is a masterpiece of the Baroque; a European Art City and a World Heritage City. Today, it is one of the most concentrated historic areas in the world.
Visit Grand Harbor and Marsamxett Harbor, St. John's Co-Cathedral, the idyllic island of Gozo, the medieval hilltop town of Mdina, historic attractions in Rabat, Hal Saflieni Hypogeum, prehistoric Tarxien Temples, the Blue Lagoon on the island of Comino, the Blue Grotto, Dingli Cliffs, and so much more!
<b>Croatia</b> 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.
<b>Malta</b> is an archipelago in the central Mediterranean between Sicily and the North African coast. It's a nation known for historic sites related to a succession of rulers including the Romans, Moors, Knights of Saint John, French and British. Malta is a tourist destination with its warm climate, numerous recreational areas, and architectural and historical monuments, including three UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
