The Balkan Peninsula for many is one of the last undiscovered corners of Europe. Meet four ex-Yugoslavia conutries in 9 days! Cultural and natural variety abound here, forged over the centuries by numerous political changes and imperial influences from the Byzantine to the Ottoman. We contrast Belgrade, Novi Sad (Serbia), Zagreb, Plitvice, Split, Dubrovnik (Croatia), Postojina Cave (Slovenia), Sarajevo, Mostar (Bosnia&Hercegovina), traditional towns, villages and places of untouched natural beauty. Each country offers a different culture, cuisine and tradition to discover, each growing as an independent nation in its own right and taking its place in the modern world. This is a rare chance to see the re-emergence of places kept off limits until relatively recently.
