I've been to Croatia and it's lovely, sunny, green, beautiful crystal sea's, and lots of lovely buildings.

I don't think you can fly to Croatia direct from Scotland. I'd be very interested if anyone knows of a compny that does it.

Bridd Thomsons go from Glasgow to Croatia - have just done a search for you.

Thanks Glynis. I have always fancied Croatia but thought we would have to travel south to go there. Will take a look.

Hi, Bridd. We had a wonderful holiday in Croatia. We booked with Balkan Holidays (a package holiday) and flights were with Croatian Airways from Glasgow. Flight and plane were first class.

we are going to slovenia for whit and will be about 2 miles from croatia so once im back ill do a report , i have been years ago when it was all yugoslavia and it was lovely then

Thanks for the replies guys.

I have had a quick look at the Thompsons' website and have also acquired some travel brochures. Most of the package hols seem to be in half board, full board or all inclusive hotels. We prefer going out at night and trying out local restaurants..has anyone been on a hol to Croatia (or a similar 'new' destination) to a good hotel on a b and b or for that matter, self-catering basis? Now it is May my OH is getting a bit antsy about getting the hol booked and I am keen too! so any advice you can give would be v welcome...
cheers
MsH

Hi msh...i think you will probably find half board will be cheaper than self catering anyway because of the under occupancy.You dont need to eat in the hotel at all

Thanks Nicole!

Digby, I have the Balkan Holidays brochure and as far as I can see, they only do direct flights to Varna and Bourgas which are in Bulgaria...unless I am reading it wrongly

Anyway, if you could let me know where you went and give me some more details, I would be v grateful.
