The Wildflower Festival of Slovenia & Cruise Croatia

May 27 - June 9, 2025

Island Hopping in Croatia with the Atlanta Botanical Garden

Discover Croatia with Atlanta Botanical!

Join me, Atlanta Botanical Garden President Mary Pat Matheson, on a first-class journey to Slovenia and Croatia! 


Our adventure begins on the shores of gorgeous Lake Bled, Slovenia. Amazingly, Slovenia is home to just two million people, but has over 4,000 unique species of wildflowers that can be found during the spring in its meadows and mountainsides. Together, we will attend the International Wildflower Festival which takes place in the Julian Alps. 


We then make our way to Opatija, Croatia and the Adriatic Coast, famous for its wines, truffles and wild honey. Our journey continues as we head south to the ancient Roman city of Split, where we board our first-class, dazzling yacht, the M/V Rhapsody! With our garden-loving  Atlanta Botanical Garden friends, we cruise through the sunny Dalmatian Islands here we will spend a full day discovering the walled city of Dubrovnik. Your journey culminates in a day-long outing to Croatia’s famous waterfall park, Plitvice!


Space is limited.


Hope to see you

" The trip was a delightful experience...

 The itinerary was excellent.  We enjoyed our first few days in Slovenia, with wonderful scenery and excursions, and very comfortable hotels. All the island stops on the ship were perfect. We had plenty of opportunities for swimming, and also for spending time on our own if we desired."
