Spain vs Croatia: everything you need to know<\/b><\/h2>\n

Croatia is located in the Balkans, which is in Southeastern Europe. Its population is 4.171 million, and it borders Hungary, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Slovenia, and Italy. From London, a non-stop flight is approximately 2h 40m. For the best weather, Croatia is most popular from July to September. The average highs are 31\u00b0C along the coast in the south. However, with the best weather comes the most tourists.<\/span><\/p>\n

Spain is located in the Iberian Peninsula in Southwestern Europe. <\/span>It has a population of 46.56 million<\/span>\u00a0and shares borders with Portugal, France, and Andorra. Spain is about a 2h 10m flight from London. The peak time to go for the best weather and experience is during the months of June to August. Go outside of those months or try a tour off outside of the most popular destinations and you\u2019ll find fewer crowds and less money out of your bank account. <\/span><\/p>\n

What are the most popular destinations in Spain and Croatia?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Spain\u2019s capital city is Madrid, located basically smack-dab in the middle of the country. Madrid houses Spain\u2019s royalty at the Royal Palace, and is home to plenty of culture and nightlife. But we can\u2019t forget about Barcelona, whose food, coastal vibes, and architecture attracts tourists by the millions. If you\u2019re looking for great nightlife, you can take a trip to the island of Ibiza from here. As one of the Balearic islands, it\u2019s known for some of the largest clubs in Europe. <\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t be mistaken, though: quiet villages for relaxation and yoga retreats are also common.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Toledo,
Toledo, Spain<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Croatia\u2019s capital city is Zagreb, located in the north of the country. However, Split (the second-largest city) and Dubrovnik (the largest) are two coastal gems that you may be interested in. You can find the grandiose Diocletian\u2019s Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, in Split. While you\u2019ll find Sponza Palace, the Cathedral of Our Lady, and the 7th century port in Dubrovnik. We can\u2019t forget about the island of Hvar either. It\u2019s great for the nightlife, but also to take a look at the historical old town of Stari Grad while making your way atop its commanding fortress.<\/span><\/p>\n

Choosing between Croatia vs. Spain<\/b><\/h2>\n

Of course, every country is going to be a different touring experience, depending on your needs and wants, which is why we\u2019ve created a guideline to help you make this nearly-impossible choice.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a minimalist:<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n

You live a simple life. There\u2019s no fuss. There\u2019s no hassle. You want to check off Croatia and Spain from your list and you want to have a good time doing it. That\u2019s it. The best way to get a flavor for each of these countries is through your standard 7-10 day Croatia<\/a><\/strong> or Spain<\/a><\/strong> adventure\u00a0<\/b>of all the essential \u201cmost talked about\u201d destinations.<\/span><\/p>\n

At the very least, you must travel to Croatia for its islands. It\u2019s one of the biggest attractions. It works out well, because two of the most popular destinations are Split and Dubrovnik. Sail your way through Croatia to see what the fuss is all about.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can cross off all the major cities in Spain in 10 days<\/strong><\/a> – Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Seville, Granada, and all the quaint towns in between. You\u2019ll explore the Gothic neighborhoods of Barcelona and experience a flamenco dance show, and indulge in the arts and the sights of the Andalusia region.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Seville,
Seville, Spain<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If you\u2019re in it for the food:<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s what keeps us going on those long tour days. It\u2019s what allows us to slow down midday, get fired up at the crack of dawn, and keep us smiling after a long day in the sun. Food. The act of eating for enjoyment instead of rushing for nourishment. That\u2019s why you travel.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sailing along the Dalmatian coast<\/strong> <\/a>while enjoying Croatian food and wine like a local. The cuisine you will experience here is so diverse that your taste buds will meet seafood, lamb, olive oil, and renowned Croatian wines. Want an even more local tour? You can visit local farmers, fishermen, and winemakers as they help travelers with traditional cooking tricks and tips. Mixed with the background of the crystal blue Adriatic, you\u2019ll have the best dining time!<\/span><\/p>\n

Spain is for wine drinkers and cuisine lovers, without a doubt. You can visit the famous wine region of Ribera del Duero<\/strong><\/a>, indulge in all of the tapas during a bar crawl in Leo\u0301n, or enjoy what\u2019s called the \u201cbest steak in the world\u201d at Bodega El Capricho. Your mouth must already be watering…<\/span><\/p>\n

If you want a thrill: <\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n

You crave adventure, the high life, the energy that comes with feeling invincible. It\u2019s that little bit of excitement that comes out when you\u2019re out of your element that only continues to grow the further into your tour that you get. You know the next experience is happening soon, so what will you choose next?<\/span><\/p>\n

What better way to experience Croatia than a bus tour<\/strong><\/a> taking you from the top to the bottom of the country? You can swim in waterfalls, cruise along the beaches on bike, and enjoy the nightlight in all the major cities. This one has everything needed to get your heart racing.<\/span><\/p>\n

While there are so many different ways to adventure in Spain, one of our favourites is a trek to Picos de Europa.<\/strong><\/a> This range of mountains on the northern coast of Spain is literally named The Peaks of Europe. Its origin comes from when European ships would see them as they arrive from the Americas, and they\u2019d know they were home. It can only mean one thing – you must see The Picos if you are arriving from the Americas. What an expedition to take on for your next adventure!<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a history buff:<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n

What\u2019s left of ancient civilizations can sometimes be the biggest draw for travelers today. You will not be disappointed in when visiting either of these countries. Impressive churches with architecture through the ages that just isn\u2019t as prominent in Western countries or the South-Pacific. Back to the 14th century and onward, there will be no shortage of appreciation for deep roots in either country. <\/span><\/p>\n

On the very northwestern edge of Croatia,\u00a0<\/strong><\/a>you\u2019ll find the remains of empires from across the ages. Be enriched and feel like royalty with this tour as the perfect background for a unique history lesson.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can visit the northeastern region of Spain<\/strong><\/a> to experience the medieval villages of Costa Brava, which translates to \u201cwild coast\u201d in English. There you will find Tossa de Mar, an ancient fishermen\u2019s village that has been transformed in the past 50 years for tourists to appreciate the beauty of this coastal region. The landscapes, lookouts and vibrant colors you\u2019ll see on these adventures are the cherry atop the tradition and beauty. <\/span><\/p>\n

If you love people:<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n

People are what drive us to open up our minds to new communities and culture. Seeing the way different people live around the world can have a huge impact on how we live our daily lives, and this can often be seen through festivals and gatherings.<\/span><\/p>\n

In Croatia, travelers can enjoy many great festivals and outdoor activities, including Yacht Week and Ultra Europe. Both are electronic music festivals that bring out great crowds and lots of togetherness. If that floats your boat, you can check out these great yacht tours<\/strong><\/a> to help guide you through the sea safe and sound.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you want to be where the people are in Spain, you will not want to miss out on La Tomatina<\/a>.<\/strong> This epic Spanish festival is held every August near Valencia in the town of Bu\u00f1ol. It\u2019s thrilling, to say the least. The population triples for the largest food fight in the world with over 150,000 tomatoes being tossed all around you. Just make sure you\u2019ve packed extra clothes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Final thoughts<\/b><\/h3>\n

There is not one \u201cbetter\u201d country to visit, but rather the best tour for you to take to get a good sense of each unique location as it pertains to your very own travel style. And if that doesn\u2019t help you decide, we suggest taking a look at these fun facts to help knock you off the fence:<\/span><\/p>\n
