Dubrovnik is one of the most prominent destinations in the Adriatic Sea. It lies in the region of Dalmatia and is considered to be among the ten best-preserved medieval walled cities in the world - for which it was awarded UNESCO World Heritage status in 1979. Explore this ancient and beautiful city before embarking on your adventure this afternoon!
Korčula is thought to be the actual birthplace of Marco Polo. An island in the Adriatic Sea in southern Dalmatia, Korčula is widely considered by guests as a favorite destination. Play in the crystal blue waters surrounding the red-roofed island, or enjoy a leisurely bike ride around the flat terrain.
Hvar is a Croatian island in the Adriatic Sea, blessed with a large fertile coastal plain and fresh water springs. Its hillsides are covered in pine forests, with vineyards, olive groves, fruit orchards and lavender fields in the agricultural areas. The climate is characterized by mild winters and warm summers with many hours of sunshine. Kayak down the coastline or take an independent hike up to the fortress to have some incredible views of the picturesque harbor.
This island holds a host of accolades from being the oldest town in Croatia and hosting the oldest regatta in Europe, to featuring some of the most beautiful beaches in the country. The farthest inhabited island off the Croatian mainland, Vis has an interesting cultural heritage after being secluded from foreign visitors until the late 1980s. This history of isolation has been key in keeping the island's culture unique, making Vis an ideal destination for those seeking authenticity.
Rovinj is a popular tourist resort in Croatia situated on the north Adriatic Sea. It is situated on the western coast of the Istrian peninsula and remains as one of the last true fishing ports. Enjoy an optional excursion exploring the local wine making tradition, or stroll along the waterfront.
Venice has been known as the "Queen of the Adriatic," "City of Masks," "The Floating City," and many other epithets. Described as "undoubtedly the most beautiful city built by man," Venice is also widely considered as one of Europe's most romantic cities. Founded in the 5th century, the city stretches across 118 small islands in the marshy Venetian Lagoon along the Adriatic. Dock at the San Basilio pier after navigating by the famous St. Mark’s Square down the grand canal. Disembark after breakfast and explore this romantic city before continuing on your travels or returning home.

This was my first experience with Adventure Life - and I couldn't have been more pleased with the trip. The guides and local staff in both Buenos Aires and Uruguay were terrific - extremely helpful and accommodating. I really enjoyed meeting the friendly staff in Buenos Aires in person (I left my bags with them for the afternoon).

Adventure Life has been an extraordinary travel resource for us over the years and today was no exception. Our River Cruise booking was handled by Jess (who has been our personal trip planner for several years) the same day as our inquiry. Suggestions were given for cabin choice and pre-trip options (that were not shown on the cruise line's website) like airport transfers and prepaid gratuities. Trip insurance recommendations followed and we were assigned a travel co-ordinator till the end of the tour. All we have to do is show up! Great service from friendly folks.

Our travel was flawless! The rider pickup (airport, hotel, ship) was seamless. Jane's recommendation for Emerald Cruise Sakara was everything I wanted but the experience was soooo much more. Adventure Life took care of each and every detail and this was the easiest of all my travels.
