Detoxification process and detox retreat in Istria, one of the most popular regions in Croatia
If there’s one thing Coronavirus pandemic messed up for everyone, it’s our travel plans. The most common thing in the world was to hop on a plane and have a weekend break in another country. Visiting a city in Europe during holidays was as common as a walk in the park.
And then COVID-19 pandemic happened. Everything changed in our lives, and we stopped traveling completely. The lockdown was hard on everyone, and a wake up call. Thoughts of traveling were on most of our minds. We all needed some stress relief or detoxing holidays.
Now that the borders are opening up, the most repeated travel question is the same - where should we travel next?
But the answers are much different than before. And so are the holidays.

Release stress on outdoor holidays in Croatia and go off the beaten path
Holidays and traveling after Corona is not something you can book on a whim. It requires planning and careful consideration. Your health now plays a vital role in choosing. Of utmost importance is that you choose between countries which are safe to visit. Also, you have to decide what type of holidays are safe for you. Booking a hotel and strolling carefree along the city promenades or beaches? Not a 100% safe option anymore.
Your best bet for Corona free and safe holidays these days are outdoor holidays. With its mountains, canyons, rivers and National parks, Croatia is nothing short of heaven! Lovers of the great outdoors and those wishing to have healthy holidays are in for a treat. The thing about Croatia is this: “take France, Spain, Italy, and all other best European tourist destinations, put them in a box together, and you have Croatia” - as one of the guests put it.
But you need to take it one step further than plain old outdoor holidays.
Hiking through amazing Istrian scenery is a fantastic extension to your detox week in Croatia. Outdoor holidays are your healing holidays.
Detox holidays in Europe with Yoga, Tennis and wellness
There’s no denying Covid-19 pandemic made a huge impact on our health and our lives. We stayed inside for days, not being able to see our friends or family or have any kind of social life whatsoever. We kept receiving dozens of contrary news on a daily basis. Not knowing which ones are true and which ones are fake news made it even worse. Our lives changed in such massive ways like no one ever thought it was possible.
Yes, we need to get rid of poison in our lives. And that’s why you should consider a different kind of recovery. A recovery that works as detox cleanse, Yoga retreat and tennis holidays all in one.
