Bike Tour Operator Extends to Croatia/Slovenia

In a further sign of Central Europe's growing presence as a hot destination, Austin-Lehman Adventures (ALA) has announced the development of two new programs to Slovenia and Croatia for the 2011 season.
 
Building on its acquisition of EuroBike Tours in 2008, ALA will be offering two new trips: a six-night, bike trip in Slovenia and a seven-night, multi-sport trip in Croatia. The Slovenia excursion will include Ljubljana (the capital), Bled with Lake Bled, Kranjska Gora, Nova Gorica/Gorizia. The Croatian program, beginning in Split and ending in Dubrovnik, will feature a number of islands in the Adriatic Sea (Brac, Hvar, Korcula).
 
Slovenia and Croatia are among the new trips added to ALA’s growing roster of biking adventures. This move into Eastern Europe coincides with ALA’s recent acquisition of custom-adventure operator CBT Tours.
