Discover why everyone’s talking about Croatia

Washed by the sparkling waters of the Adriatic Sea, Croatia is home to some of the most magnificent coastal scenery in Europe. Rich in history and culture, it is no wonder this secluded treasure trove is fast becoming the ‘hot’ destination for 2006. Travelsphere has introduced two new itineraries in their latest European collection with charter flights from Gatwick, Manchester, Nottingham EMA and Bristol airports.

A traditional 8-day break with accommodation on a half-board basis in the pretty resort of Rabac on Maslinica Bay costs from just £299. For a city break with a difference, have a look at the new 8-day break to the fascinating port of Dubrovnik, available on a half-board basis from £489. The old town has one of the most famous views in Europe, thanks to its celebrated medieval fortress, maze of ramparts, narrow streets, hidden squares, museums and churches. In contrast, Opatija on the Kvarner Peninsula has been a popular holiday resort since the 19th century and retains an unmistakeable air of grandeur with its seafront promenade, majestic gardens and lovely assortment of shops, bars and restaurants. The new 8-day break from £489 features 4-star accommodation on a half-board basis, a gala dinner and fascinating excursions in neighbouring Slovenia.

Further details can be found in Travelsphere’s new European Collection brochure for 2006, which boasts its biggest selection ever to Europe with over 146 great value holidays, 26 of which are brand new in 30 European countries. Prices start from as little as £99 for a weekend break in Paris, rising to £929 for a delightful 10-day river cruise on a full-board basis down the mighty River Elbe from Germany to the Czech Republic.

Several of the holidays featured conveniently include a local coach departure from over 200 towns and cities throughout the UK. The company has picked up on the growing trend for more choice and flexibility with holiday packages by introducing add-on and extend your stay options, hotel upgrades, included extras and special departures to festivals and events around Europe. The brochure also features a great selection of walking and activity based holidays, plus some exciting ideas by train.

The choice of new holidays by air is extensive. Take in the ‘Visions of Northern Spain’ on an 8-day 4-star break on a half-board basis featuring stays in Bilbao, Ojedo-Potes in the west and the pretty seaside town of Comillas from £499. Budget in advance on an action-packed 8-day tour of Tunisia from £599, featuring full-board accommodation at 4-star hotels throughout, lots of included excursions and a memorable journey aboard the Red Lizard train through the dramatic Selja Canyon. Discover Ukraine, still a relatively undiscovered jewel on a fascinating 8-day tour of its historic capital, Kiev and the breathtaking scenery around Yalta on the Crimean Peninsula from £759.
