A Is For Adriatic...And Five A-List Walking Tours
Coastal region dazzles on walking vacations from Classic Journeys
La Jolla, CA (October 2010) – How many shades of blue can the Adriatic really be?
Put it this way: enough to send most travelers running for a thesaurus. Aquamarine, azure, cobalt, sapphire, turquoise...and that's just for starters.
Classic Journeys has created five adventure tours showcasing the Adriatic in as many years. In Italy’s rural Puglia, Croatia’s Istrian Peninsula and the Dalmatian Coast, and – come next May – Montenegro, guests are rarely out of sight of the sea.
As a walking destination, Montenegro is still delightfully off-the-grid: untamed, untested, and largely undiscovered. When the Classic Journeys team scouted this brand-new country (circa 2006), from its palm-lined shores to the black-pine forests that blanket its mountains, they recognized an instant winner.
Where else in the course of a week can travelers experience seaside villages with balmy breezes, coastal inlets reminiscent of fjords, and craggy peaks with soaring canyons...in a country roughly the size of Connecticut?
Unique as they are, Italy, Croatia and Montenegro share thousands of years of history, geography and culture, influencing each other in everything from arts and architecture to regional cuisine. And Classic Journeys' full-time native guides know how to bring out the best of them on every weeklong walking tour:
