River Cruises Collection: Tastes of Croatia

Experience the best of both worlds on this half-day Osijek guided tour, which combines city sightseeing with a jaunt out to the Croatian countryside. First up, get a feel for the laid-back vibe of Osijek, Croatia’s fourth-largest city, where you’ll take in the triangular central plaza and terracotta-topped buildings. Next up, visit the living museum village of Karanac – where ‘The Street of Forgotten Times’ gives a big nod to the history of rural life in Croatia. Here, the rich flavours of Eastern Croatia also take centre stage, with authentic craft demonstrations and a smorgasbord of tasty products to sample. Slather freshly baked bread with ajvar – a moreish red pepper relish – and wash the whole lot down with a local wine or two. Afterwards, travel back to the present through rolling countryside, and re-board the ship.
