Welcome to Salento, the heel of Italy, where the enchanting town of Otranto stands as Italy’s easternmost city and one of its most captivating. Once Greek, then Roman, Otranto now blends historic fortifications with whitewashed houses overlooking turquoise waters.

Pass through the massive Porta Terra and enter a perfectly preserved old town, where every street leads to the cathedral, home to one of the world’s largest mosaics—a Tree of Life composed of nearly 800,000 tiles. Other treasures include the Church of San Pietro, the Castle of Ferdinand, and the San Nicola di Casole Monastery ruins.

By the time you leave, you’ll understand why Otranto is known as the pearl of the southern Adriatic.

For some, Dubrovnik is the setting of Game of Thrones, but for many more, it’s the “Pearl of the Adriatic.” Dubrovnik’s sunlit, gleaming fortifications—among the best-preserved in Europe—feel like something out of a dream.

For adventurers, the blue Adriatic awaits. Set sail to nearby islands or explore the depths of the sea. Dubrovnik effortlessly merges fantasy and reality, captivating all who visit.

Pronounced “roar” in Croatian, Hvar exudes a magnetic charm. Frequently ranked among the world’s most beautiful islands, Hvar is beloved by the elite, drawing visitors like Tom Cruise, Bill Gates, and Beyoncé.

When you reach the island’s beaches, with waters so blue they seem to blend with the sky, you’ll understand why Hvar holds such allure. Here, nature’s beauty and timeless elegance come together, leaving an indelible impression.

Like many Croatian towns, Rovinj’s charm lies in its maze of winding alleys and gleaming cobblestone streets. However, with its pastel-colored facades and a history rooted in Venetian rule, Rovinj feels like a romantic blend of Italy and Croatia.

Wander through its streets to see the iconic Balbi’s Arch, decorated with the winged lion of Venice, and marvel at the Church of St. Euphemia, crowned by Istria’s tallest bell tower at 61 meters. The Adriatic’s deep blue waters and Rovinj’s inviting beaches beckon for a swim.

As the sun sets, the sky ignites in vibrant hues, offering one of the most breathtaking sunsets in the world—a fitting close to a day spent in Rovinj’s enchanting embrace.

Venice is a city that exists like no other—a floating wonder, crisscrossed by canals and steeped in history. You may think you know Venice—St. Mark’s Square, the Doge’s Palace, the gondolas gliding beneath the Bridge of Sighs—but the city has a way of surprising even seasoned visitors.

Stroll through the medieval streets, visit the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, explore the vibrant Rialto market, or browse the unique shelves of the Acqua Alta bookstore. The Venice Film Festival, Carnival, and timeless beauty of La Fenice theater are just a few of the city’s many cultural gems.

At nightfall, with only the soft murmur of voices, footsteps, and water lapping against stone, Venice becomes a dreamscape—one that invites you to lose yourself and discover hidden wonders at every turn.
