Itinerary

Expand All

Day 1

Location: Tučepi

Accommodation Name: hotel

Meals Included: Dinner

Join your tour group at the hotel in Tučepi - a small fishing town on Croatia’s Makarska Riviera. A 3km stretch of marble white pebble beach and azure waters with a backdrop of green plantations and craggy peaks. Traditional restaurants and a palm-dotted promenade stretch the length of the beach and the town is just a 10-minute walk from our hotel.

Day 2 : Days 2-4

Location: Tučepi

Accommodation Name: hotel

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Your days are free to relax or explore Tučepi. The polished pebble beaches on this stretch of the Dalmatian coast ensure the waters remain crystal-clear, making snorkelling and diving trips popular.

There are also optional excursions you can join. You could visit the medieval walled city of Dubrovnik. Circled by butter-coloured fortified walls and golden city beaches, the UNESCO-listed old town is a warren of white-stone houses, terracotta roofs and baroque churches, like scenes from a medieval fairy tale.

Another option is to head into the Biokovo Mountains for great views across the sea. Or take a tour of Omis, located at the mouth of the emerald-green Cetina River and dominated by lost world limestone escarpments and the stone battlements of a mountaintop 15th-century fortress. The old town is a sea of bright-red tiled buildings, monasteries and eight churches.

Day 5

Location: Split

Accommodation Name: hotel

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Today we travel up to Split where we join an included walking tour of this UNESCO-protected city. Croatia's second largest city started out life in AD 295 as the retirement palace for the Roman emperor, Diocletian. Carved from Brač white stone (our next stop) Diocletian's Palace still stands at the heart of the old town and houses some of the best-preserved Roman ruins in the world.

After our tour there’s time to explore the medieval winding streets and tangled alleyways outside the palace complex or find a quiet spot on the sand on one of Split’s city beaches, before a scenic ferry journey to the island of Brač. We stay on the island for seven nights in Milna or Supetar.

Day 4 : Days 6-11

Location: Brač

Accommodation Name: hotel

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Despite being the third largest island in the Adriatic, Brač is much sleepier than its A-list neighbours of Hvar and Korčula. The island is famous for its olive oil and Brač stone - the white quarried stone responsible for keeping Europe’s cathedrals and palaces looking so shiny for the past two millennia. Split’s Diocletian’s Palace and Budapest’s Parliament Buildings are both carved from Brač stone, and reputedly, the White House.

A patchwork of traditional villages, pine forests and olive groves indented with peaceful bays, an included tour takes us on a panoramic drive of the island’s highlights. The rest of the week is free to enjoy the beachfront resort or explore the local area.

There are also optional excursions you can join. Take a wine and olive tasting trip to Dol, a gorgeous rustic village of stone-built houses, ancient churches and traditional taverns dotted with tall cypress trees. Take a cruise to the island of Šolta and the quaint fishing village of Stomorska. Or visit some of the island's small villages and pastoral settlements of stone houses.

Day 12

Location: Split

Accommodation Name: hotel in Milna or Supetar

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Today we take the ferry back to Split. On arrival, we'll visit the ruined Roman city of Salona on the outskirts of Solin. One of the most impressive ruins is the huge amphitheatre, the foundations and arches of which show the size and splendour of this once important Roman settlement.

We then transfer to Solin - the former Roman capital of Dalmatia. Inland from the coast and surrounded by verdant farmland and rocky outcrops, Solin is a peaceful oasis to spend our last three nights.

Day 6 : Days 13-14

Location: Solin

Accommodation Name: hotel in Milna or Supetar

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Over the next two days, we explore with plenty of time in between to relax and enjoy the quiet village feel of Solin.

We’ll head to the beautiful city of Trogir - a UNESCO World Heritage Site linked to the mainland by bridges. Wrapped in turquoise waters, the Venetian façades and palm trees of the waterfront look like they’ve come straight out of the Italian Riviera. Within the ancient city walls, a maze of medieval streets, Byzantine churches and Renaissance bell towers tell of a history that spans back more than 2,000 years.

There’s also an optional tour available to Krka National Park - an Eden-like landscape of seven waterfalls, jade-green lakes and wooden boardwalks. Carved into the limestone karsts over millennia by the Krka River, the area is considered a natural phenomenon and holds UNESCO status. Afterwards you’ll stop at Šibenik - a UNESCO-listed city at the mouth of the river. With terracotta-topped houses, elegant Renaissance buildings and Gothic churches built into the slopes above the port - Šibenik is the cover shot for a storybook Mediterranean town.

Day 15

Location: Solin

Accommodation Name: hotel in Milna or Supetar

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Say goodbye to your tour group for your onward travel.

Recently returned from the great...

08-Apr-2024

Recently returned from the great Indian rail journey.My wife and I could hardly believe the value for money.From pick ups from Durham to Heathrow and back,to the number of coach and train journeys , quality hotels, great choice of food throughout and our first night in Heathrow Hilton. What really made our trip a success was our guide, Prashant,who managed a party of twenty four very varied, sometimes a little unpredictable travellers with ease.Nothing was too much trouble for him and as a group we gelled and warmed to Prashant as he kept us safe, well informed and a little entertained by his mix of authority and humanity.Where do I begin with the tour itself ? India,a country of extremes.Poverty,wealth,order,chaos.Sometimes bleak,often breathtakingly beautiful.The people,the cities,art, architecture,flaura and fauna.Delhi,Jaipur, Amritsar,Agra, Ranthambore, Chandigarh and the icing on the cake that is Shimla. An absolute masterclass of man versus nature,the railway and buildings are an unbelievable feat,but wait until you see the dual carriageway being built on the mountainside.🤯I could go on for a very long time but I'll just post some photos.Thanks to Titan,thanks to the excellent Prashant and and a massive thanks to the other twenty two travellers who helped shape our holiday of a lifetime.🏁💜

Exceptional trip and service by Titan

04-Oct-2022

Just returned from a fabulous tour of California & the golden west. It’s a full on tour with early starts but you see so much varied landscape from the ocean to the desert to Yosemite. My 2nd tour with Titan & my first solo tour. Thoroughly enjoyed it & met some great people. Grand Canyon was amazing would definitely recommend

Not merely a holiday, rather a memorable experience

29-Dec-2022

I have used other travel operators; this was the 1st time of touring with Titan----Israel, The Holy Land, from being collected from home and returned at the end of the holiday this was an unforgettable experience; the Tour Manager, a PhD Archaeology made the whole tour so interesting, he enlightened us throughout each day from an historical, archeological and Biblical viewpoint, bringing each site we visited come to life, and went over and above his remit escorting us for evening trips around the local area; thanks also to our very patient driver who coped with the very busy traffic; our hotels were good, professional and pleasant staff and really good food; I would recommend Titan to anyone looking for a fascinating tour with excellent efficient service thank you Titan nor just for a holiday for a memorable experience

We had a fantastic holiday...

26-May-2023

We had a fantastic holiday in Mississippi. Right from our chauffeur driven car picking us up to the return journey, we had a great time. The first hotel The Gaylord was amazing,absolutely huge,first class. The second The Double tree in Memphis unfortunately wasn't, the hotel was tired and very basic, the only plus was where it is situated in the centre of town, we were only there two nights so it wasn't to bad. The American Queen Steam Boat was first class all the way, thoroughly enjoyed the seven nights sailing down the Mississippi. The last hotel the Sheraton New Orleans was very comfortable too. Our guide throughout our time away was Laura Tuttle. she was amazing, very knowledgeable, and helpful. We also had a coach driver Guil, who went over and beyond to give you the best time. Other coach guides included Jim,who was so funny, and also very knowledgeably. Very entertaining throughout. The entire itinerary itinerary was very well thought out, included a huge variety of visits to different Interesting locations. Highly recommend using Titan for all your holiday destinations.

THE GREAT INDIAN RAIL JOURNEY!!!!...

03-Feb-2024

THE GREAT INDIAN RAIL JOURNEY!!!! (Dreadful) Avoid Titan and Saga at all costs. False descriptions of the tour and dreadful administration Returned to the UK last evening with a great sigh of relief after the worst holiday ever. 1. No block booking of airplane seats by Titan. (Husband and I sat apart on the long, overnight flight) 2. Unable to pre-book seats as Titan reference numbers did not coincide with anything. 3. Husband and I not sat together on any of the train journeys! In fact, on one occasion I was sat, alone on a sleeper carriage, a couple of carriages away from the rest of the group who were scattered over two or three carriages. Terrifying as a female to be sat alone in the midst of noisy locals!!!!! (Eventually the guide, Rahi, did come to rescue me and found a seat near the main group) 4. The guide, Rahi, would usually get off the coach and begin walking off without waiting for all the group to disembark the coach. (Spot the guide in the crowd!) 5. The guide, Rahi, refused to use any identifying prop such as a flag, hat, jacket or umbrella. Frightening to be in the manic crowds of Delhi and other crowded places to be unable to see the guide. 6. NO AUDIO HEADSET system on any excursion 7. The guide, Rahi, didn’t face the whole group, but stood sideways on and was unable to be heard by the majority. 8. OUTRAGEOUS behaviour by the guide when he enquired as to the whereabouts of my husband, whom I explained was in bed with an upset stomach and was feeling unwell. Rahi DID A REVERSE AIR PUNCH😳😳. This was in response to an earlier conversation when my husband had complained about our separate seating arrangements. TOTALLY UNPROFESSIONAL 9. When we arrived at Heathrow to find our aircraft seats were not allocated, we were advised to speak to our guide on arrival at Delhi. Rahi merely shrugged his shoulders and said he couldn’t do anything. 10. Tour pace incorrect - gruelling pace and only half a day relaxation due to the guide, Rahi, throwing in visits to shops and factories fie him to earn his commission as I head him tell another!!!!!!! 11. When off loaded the return flight due to illness, we were unable to get in contact with Titan/Saga. Left in Delhi without an hotel or flight!!! Found accommodation but didn’t remove shoes or clothes due to the poor standard. Final summary: Poor, disappointing, inefficient, incompetent, misleading, misrepresentations, are just a few words to describe.

Luxury VIP door to door...

17-Jul-2023

Luxury VIP door to door travel! I don't think so....Titan sent a Toyota Prius uber to Stanstead for a return journey to Newport, S Wales. 4 adults plus luggage! the experience was anything but luxurious. Contacted Titan on the return journey and since return. They simply didn't seem interested and offered us a £300 travel discount off a future trip! After a lot of emails they converted it to a £300 cash refund. Give it a lot of thought before booking !
