Croatia – October 2025: Culture, Wellness, and Connection

Our trip to Croatia from September 28 to October 3, 2025, was a wonderful mix of culture, wellness, and professional connection. From the moment we arrived, we were immersed in experiences that highlighted the best of the country.

We started in Zagorje at Terme Tuhelj, enjoying spa time and the peaceful surroundings of the hotel. The welcome reception at Castle Mihanović was a great way to meet other travel professionals and set the tone for the trip.

Exploring Zagorje and Zagreb gave us a clear sense of Croatia’s history and culture. Walking through historic streets and sampling local food—from traditional dinners to winery visits—helped us understand the region’s culinary traditions.

The North Adriatic Coast offered a new perspective. Opatija and Rijeka introduced us to the coast’s charm and local life. Attending the TOURISM 365 Conference and B2B Marketplace was inspiring and gave us a chance to connect with other tourism professionals and see trends in wellness and lifestyle travel.

In Crikvenica and Zadar, we continued to combine culture, seaside views, and networking. Walking along the promenade, visiting historic sites, and enjoying local cuisine made each day feel full and meaningful. The Sea Organ in Zadar was a highlight and a unique experience we won’t forget.

This trip gave us a new perspective on travel that combines work, culture, and relaxation. From spa time to professional sessions and local tours, each day offered something memorable.

We returned home inspired, refreshed, and with a deeper appreciation for Croatia and what it offers travelers.
