I was thinking when visiting croatia in May to spend 4 days in Dubrovnic, take ferry to Split, stay 2 night, train to Zagreb, sleep two nights an take train to Ljubjana and stay two nights. Fly back home from there.
Will it be ok or is it best to see less for a longer period. Like only Dubrovnic and Split? I want to make most of the trip but I realize that I am going to spend a lot of time on the road, or water. What do you think?
Perhaps you'll find it interesting if you spend few more days in Split and use it as a base to visit nearby places like Trogir (also UNESCO World Heritage site), ruins of Roman regional capital Salona, Krka Waterfalls National Park or even take a day trip to the islands Brac or Hvar.
Local tourist board website http://www.dalmatia.hr/
has more detailed info on what the Split region has to offer
And one slight correction, Ljubljana is in Slovenia, so this schedule means be 8 days in Croatia
Enjoy your trip!

Yes you are right Thought it would be nice to spend two days In slovenia Should I rather spend time in split and leave Zagreb
I would definitely recommend it. Though I must confess to be a bit biased in considering Split to be the most beautiful town in the world :)
If you are looking to explore many different attractions, than using Split as a base is a practical solution. In addition in early May is the celebration of city's patron saint, with a whole week of the festivities.
Thanks for your advice it is always difficult to make decitions on something that you are not familiar of Will it be easy to make use of public transport in split or do we need a rental car it can be stressfull to drive in a foreigh country
All the major attractions in Split are accessible by foot from city centre or by public transport.
A car might be useful if you want to go sightseeing to places around Split.
Thankyou for your advice you were very helpfull
