Almost a half of that amount - $523 million - was spent during the
tours for the purpose of shopping when Croatians travelled to
neighbouring countries to buy cheaper groceries and clothes.
According to the Institute, Croatians spent $319 million on tours
when they visited their friends and relatives abroad and did not pay
overnight stays.
Croatians spent almost 44 dollars daily for one-day 'shopping'
tours and 33 dollars for one-day excursions abroad.
