Last night, we organised the UK launch of the Croatian National Tourist Board (CNTB)’s new pre- and post-season campaign: ‘Croatia 365’.
Held in the grand setting of Queen’s Club, 100 travel trade, media and VIP guests were welcomed by Mr Darko Lorencin, the Croatian Minister of Tourism, Mr Ratomir Ivičić, Director of the Croatian National Tourist Board, Mr Tonko Rilović, UK & Ireland Director of the Croatian National Tourist Board, and Mr Ivan Grdešić, Ambassador of the Republic of Croatia to the United Kingdom.
Representatives from the regions of Dubrovnik and Riviera, Korčula and Pelješac, Slavonia and Baranja, and north-western Istria showcased their huge range of cultural, eno-gastronomic, adventure, wellness & health and MICE offerings.
Guests were then treated to a fun and informative tasting masterclass by Joe Wadsack, the renowned wine writer and Saturday Morning Kitchen TV presenter. During the tasting, they were transported on a wine tasting journey around the beautiful country of Croatia.
Once they’d had their fill of Croatian delicacies – which included the highest quality truffles, cheeses, olive oils, pršut, salami, honey, sweets and cakes – they were treated to beautiful and charismatic performances from world-class Croatian tenor Stijepo Gled Markos.
If you’re a travel journalist keen to know more about what Croatia can offer throughout the year – from cultural activities and fascinating historical architecture to thermo-mineral water based spas and local food delicacies – get in touch. We’d be happy to send some more information and put you on our list for future events!
