Slovenia is a wonderful country, a succession of breathtaking mountains, deep blue lakes, mysterious caves and immense forests! In the middle of these sceneries, towns are perfectly integrated into the landscape, and where you can discover history and traditions, especially culinary ones…

Cave of Postojna

The Postojna cave with its tunnels, galleries and unusual rooms was discovered more than two centuries ago. The “Briljant”, a majestic white stalagmite, is the icon of this subterranean paradise that you can discover on board of the little train for a magical experience. Endemic to the Karst region, the baby dragons, translucent body, 25 cm, no eyes, took up residence there several million years ago…

The Lake of Bled

The blue of the water, the green of the mountains, the surrounding forests, and the small central island, like a delicate touch on this breathtaking scenery, make this panorama an unforgettable picture. Visitors can enjoy the peace and quiet, relax, walk, and bathe here, overlooked by the Bled Castle. The paths around the lake offer an enchanting walk during which one can enjoy stopping in secret corners, well kept from tourists…

Lipica

Lipica is one of the oldest stud farms in the world, where the noble white Lipizzaner horses originate. A stay in this pure environment is accompanied by a ride in a horse-drawn carriage, an opportunity to discover a remarkable know-how, in a place of great prestige where you can learn as much as you can relax!

Ljubljana

The green capital par excellence, Ljubljana is built around its eponymous river, crossed by numerous picturesque bridges such as the Triple Bridge or the Dragon Bridge. From its thousand-year-old castle, one can admire a sublime view of the Alps and the Balkans, while in the city, arts from all eras intermingle in the streets and museums. Slovenian gastronomy offers a real gustatory spectacle that never leaves you indifferent…

Whether it is in altitude or in the depths, the spectacles which are offered to the travelers are unforgettable. As you travel through the country, the blues and greens follow one another and leave a formidable trace in the depths of each person… So, don’t hesitate any longer, and create your group trip in Europe at the workshop to build your adventure

Split

A famous seaside destination thanks to the Riva promenade, its smooth white stones, its palm trees and the relaxing atmosphere that emanates from it, Split is also a cultural cradle! The Diocletian’s Palace, more than 1,700 years old, and its foundations, the Temple of Jupiter, or the Cathedral of St. Domnius are a well of history and form a formidable city-monument. The picturesque district of Varoš offers an exceptional view of the coast, the city, and the mountains.

Zagreb

The upper city is home to the Gothic Cathedral, whose stone ornaments are similar to lace, and the Church of St. Mark, recognizable among a thousand thanks to its colored tiles forming the city’s coat of arms. Mixing history, modernity and creativity, the museums and art galleries are numerous but are unlike any other, such as the amazing Museum of Broken Hearts. In the lower town, Ban-Jelačić Square regularly hosts a variety of events, making each visit to Zagreb different from the previous ones.

Surprising, infinite, breathtaking, rich, unique… the list of adjectives to describe Croatia is endless.

Flevoland is a Dutch province created by reclamation less than 40 years ago, in place of the island of Schokland ! Between Almere, modern and trendy, and Urk, a fishing village, the landscapes of the Noordoostpolder are only nature and plenitude.
