In-Depth Information
National tourist offices are a wealth of information. Before your trip, visit each country's
website for events, activities, and attractions by region. Explore information on Croatia's

),Slovenia'soutdooractiv-
ities and tourist farms (
www.slovenia.info
)
, and Bosnia-Herzegovina's hiking opportunities
and well-preserved historical sites (

).
Your best first stop in every town is generally the tourist information office—abbreviated
TI
in this topic (though locally, you may see them marked
TZ
, for
turisti
č
ka zajednica
).
Throughout Croatia and Slovenia, you'll find TIs are usually well-organized and always
have an English-speaking staff; Bosnian TIs can be more hit-or-miss.
