8 Days Adriatic Coastal Cruise

Spend the morning exploring Dubrovnik’s UNESCO World Heritage-listed Old Town on a guided walk. Begin at the impressive Pile Gate and wander through narrow limestone alleys, passing the Rector’s Palace, Sponza Palace, and the Dominican and Franciscan monasteries. After returning to your ship for lunch, set sail for Korčula. Here, enjoy a guided tour through its maze of cobblestone streets and elegant squares, lined with palaces once home to the island’s nobility. While less well known than Dubrovnik, Korčula offers an equally captivating experience. The evening is at leisure — perfect for dining along the scenic waterfront esplanade.

Cruise to the Croatian island of Vis, where you’ll disembark to explore its remote, unspoilt beauty on a scenic drive around the island. Then sail to Split, one of the Adriatic’s most vibrant port cities. Join your guide for a walking tour of Diocletian’s Palace, built by the Roman emperor as his retirement residence around AD 305. Today, the city’s historic centre lies within and around the palace walls, making it one of the best-preserved and still-inhabited Roman complexes in the world. Your ship remains docked overnight, giving you the opportunity to explore Split at leisure after dinner on board.

Set sail for Šibenik, stopping for a swim along the way. Often considered the gateway to Krka National Park, Šibenik provides access to one of Croatia’s most beautiful natural areas. Your ship remains in port overnight, giving you the flexibility to dine on board or head into town to a local restaurant.

Insider Experience – Krka National Park

Spend the afternoon exploring the dramatic waterfalls of Krka National Park. Wander along wooden boardwalks and bridges at Skradinski Buk, a series of turquoise cascades and pools set amid lush greenery.

This morning, take a guided walk through Šibenik’s remarkably well-preserved old town. Return to your ship and set sail for Zadar, an ancient port city that once rivalled Venice as a major power on the Adriatic coast. Arrive in the early evening and join a guided tour of the historic centre. Enjoy dinner ashore tonight, with your ship moored near a lively waterfront lined with charming restaurants and bars serving freshly caught seafood.

Wake this morning and enjoy a relaxing sail to the island of Rab. This afternoon, you are free to wander the white-walled harbour foreshore. Later, perhaps enjoy dinner at a local restaurant overlooking the lively marina.

This morning, anchor off the island of Krk, where you may enjoy a refreshing swim in the inviting Adriatic. Continue cruising to Opatija and spend the afternoon at leisure. This evening, join your newfound friends for a special Captain’s Farewell Dinner on board your ship.

Disembark your ship and transfer by coach to Zagreb Airport for your onward flight.
