Croatia Dalmatian Coast Cruise Tour

Welcome to Dubrovnik, the most representative seaside resort in Croatia, steeped in history and culture.

Upon arrival, you'll be greeted by a local driver who will escort you to your hotel. Check in and take the rest of the day to relax and unwind after your flight.

Enjoy a leisurely morning before boarding your Adriatic cruise at Gruz Harbor from 14:00.

After settling in, head to the Pile Gate for a guided walking tour of the old town. With mesmerizing medieval architecture, quaint limestone alleys, and distinctive terracotta rooftops, it's easy to see why so many fall under its spell. The tour also includes a cable car ride to Srd Mountain for panoramic views of the city and bays.

When the tour ends, get back to the vessel for a welcome reception and dinner.

Wake up with a leisure cruise along Dubrovnik's city walls to enjoy this city from a special perspective. Then anchor near the Elaphiti Islands for a refreshing swim in the Adriatic's crystal-blue waters.

When arriving in the tiny village of Slano, disembark for a half-day excursion to Ston. Walk along the impressive medieval walls, visit traditional saltworks, and savor freshly harvested oysters at a local farm.

As the night falls, return to the ship for the captain's dinner with live entertainment.

This morning, the ship will sail to Mljet Island, known for its unspoiled natural beauty.

Anchor within the Mljet National Park, and explore this peaceful haven at your leisure: stroll around the salt lakes, and take a boat to St Mary Isle to visit an ancient Benedictine monastery. Couples and adventurers alike can hop on a bike or e-bike to wander through pine forests and lakeshores, seeking the park's tranquil landscapes up close (available at additional cost).

Cruise towards Korcula Island, the birthplace of Marco Polo.

Upon arrival, go ashore and explore this enchanting place through a guided walking tour. The jewel on the island is the historic town of Korcula, which boasts numerous historical sites, including the Romanesque-Gothic Cathedral of St. Mark, the 15th-century Franciscan monastery, and so on. Rambling through its historic walls, medieval squares, churches, palaces, and houses, you will find why people call Korcula the "Little Dubrovnik".

The ocean journey continues to Vis Island today.

Once a military island closed to visitors until 1991, Vis is the most off-the-beaten-path in Croatia, remaining a pristine escape where time seems to slow down. Spend the day at leisure to discover its well-preserved architecture and culture, or join a Military Jeep Experience to uncover the island's fascinating history (available at additional cost).

Weather permitting, cruise to the small Bisevo Island to visit the Blue Cave (entrance fee paid on-site). Marvel at a rare natural optical reflection phenomenon: sunlight refracts through the underwater entrance, turning the cave into a glowing blue world where the water shimmers and objects gleam silver.

Continue to the sun-soaked Hvar Island, stopping for a swim along the way. Follow a guided walking tour to explore Hvar's old town, where it blends the Renaissance with that of Venice. Then enjoy free time to experience its vibrant nightlife - numerous restaurants, bars and clubs open long into the night.

Depart early for Brac Island and enjoy leisure time in Bol, home to the famous Zlatni Rat (Golden Horn) Beach. You may choose to paddle along Bol's stunning coastline or visit a local winery to discover local winemaking traditions and enjoy a tasting (available at additional cost).

Sail towards Trogir in the afternoon and explore this UNESCO-listed town with a guided walking tour. Wander through its maze of cobbled streets, admire its stunning medieval architecture, and soak in the vibrant atmosphere.

Your Adriatic cruise concludes today. Say goodbye to your new friends and transfer to Split for your onward flight.

If time allows, you can extend your holiday to explore inland destinations, such as Plitvice Lakes National Park or Zagreb.
