It's amazing how many travel videos are covering and recommending slavic countries to visit today. Romania, Croatia, Serbia, Poland, etc. The scenery is awesome and the beauty of historic architecture is breathtaking. Thanks for another informative and well paced video...in a region of the world I've never seen.

As a travel advisor, I love this list. I am always trying to get people to try new places. I am very interested in visiting Romania and Poland. I just returned from a Danube cruise where I stayed a few days before in Budapest (so gorgeous with amazing architecture), Bratislava was cute (though old town can be crowded when the ships are there), and the other town we saw, Krems, Linz and Passau are must sees as well. I plan to go back to the area and see more, including Prague. Lisbon is always a fav of mine and I love the whole Alentejo region. I call it the Tuscany of Portugal. Turin is on my list and luckily next month I will be visiting Umbria & Perugia. Also off the beaten path and I think they are a good value. Bulgaria and the Balkans are also places I want to visit. I am happy to see Croatia and Slovenia have there time in the limelight. I just attended a workshop with the tourist offices of these 2 countries. They are READY for visitors. Montenegro and Serbia are 2 other places that I think warrant discovery. Thanks and love your channel.

John and Bev you are my newest heros. Thank you for sharing travel tips and your ongoing journey. 🙂

Great video as always. So many wonderful destination ideas.

I highly recommend Skopje and Lake Ohrid Macedonia! STUNNING architecture in the former and natural serenity in the latter.

I've already been to Ljubljana, Split, Budapest, Belgrade, Lisbon, Bratislava from your list and totally agree with you on these cities. The remaining ones are on my bucket list. It's a bit of a pity that you have left out Scandinavia/The Nordics completely. We have totally fallen in love with Lapland and have enjoyed the midnight sun several times. Safe travels!

Thank you John and Bev for the video. We enjoyed visiting Istria Peninsula, Croatia last summer. We stopped at several cities and towns such as Opatija, Pula, Rovinj, and Motovun.

Wow! I am going to use this list when I eventually get to Europe! What an epic video…so beautifully presented, and wonderful cinematography! Thank you for your wonderful content! ….Stay safe ….
