After breakfast, the English speaking guide and the coach will come to the pier. Visit the historical center of Dubrovnik, which was enlisted as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The guide will show you the most interesting sights in Dubrovnik. After the city tour explore around, visit City Walls or take a scenic cable car to the top of Mount Srđ with its stunning 360° vista. On this day, no lunch on board so you can spend more time exploring Dubrovnik and see why this city was deservedly nicknamed Pearl of the Adriatic.

In case dock and lock schedules or weather conditions prevent you from anchoring in Šipanska Luka, cruise to Slano located on the mainland instead. Enjoy your dinner on board.
Your day starts with a morning departure towards Mljet National Park. Once you have arrived, you have enough time to explore the park, walk around the Great and Small Lake, visit the Islet of St. Mary with its Benedictine the Monastery from the 12th century, and, of course, take a swim in the heart of the National Park. Entrance fees to Mljet National Park are included. With lunch served on board, you will sail for the Island of Korčula. The town of Korčula is the island’s main settlement and is known as the birthplace of Marco Polo, one of the world’s most famous explorers of all time. The English-speaking guide will take you on a tour of Korčula Town through its narrow, cobbled streets and rich history. Have the rest of the evening free to enjoy dining at one of the local restaurants of your choice. Overnight in Korčula Historical Town.
Cruise to the Island of Vis in the morning with lunch on board and a swim stop en route. Compared to other Adriatic islands, Vis is rather unique. Being an important strategic military stronghold for centuries, Vis was spared the excessive tourist development and thus retained its unspoilt beaches, ecological agriculture and traditional architecture. Enjoy the afternoon exploring the town of Vis, with its picturesque stone streets, pristine beaches, and fine taverns. Overnight in Vis Town.
Today, cruise to the Island of Biševo and its Blue Cave, one of the most famous natural attractions in the whole of the Adriatic Sea. Blue Cave is a waterlogged cave that can be approached only by boat. Sunbeams penetrating through its submarine opening get reflected from the white bottom floor, creating a magical effect of deep aquamarine and shiny silver light, mystifying the cave’s visitors. However, sometimes high waves prevent the entrance to Blue Cave, which is something you shall not know before the time designated for your visit. In case you can't enter Blue Cave due to such sea conditions, you will get a full ticket refund. Following a swim stop and lunch, continue cruising along many coves and bays towards Hvar, Croatia's sunniest island. Hvar is one of the country’s most attractive tourist destinations and a meeting point for international jet-setters. Upon your arrival to Hvar, a local English-speaking guide walks you through this unique city, introducing you to its millennia-long history, culture, and way of life, along with a few of the island’s peculiarities, such as the traditional farming of lavender. Afterward, have an evening on your own to explore and dine in one of the numerous family-owned restaurants and taverns. Overnight in Hvar Historical Town
This morning, set sail for Bol, best known for its beach of Zlatni Rat (Golden Cape), which consistently ranks among the most beautiful beaches in Europe. Enjoy simple pleasures such as taking a walk around this nice little Dalmatian town or having a cup of coffee or going for a swim until lunch is served on board. After lunch, cruise towards Trogir, a city inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List, arriving there during the afternoon. This town - museum is literally packed with palaces, churches, monasteries, and towers, with the main attraction being the Cathedral of St. Lawrence, probably the finest example of sacral architecture in Croatia. A professional English-speaking guide will take you on a city tour of Trogir. Afterwards, have some time on your own, free to explore. On this evening, have a Captain's Dinner on board, along with some live music entertainment. Overnight in the historical town of Trogir.
In the morning, sail out for Split, your last port on this cruise, with a swim stop along the way. After lunch, your English-speaking guide will do an afternoon tour of Split, walking you through the world-famous Diocletian’s Palace. Split is the second-largest urban center in Croatia and the seat of Split-Dalmatia County. Over 1700 years old, Split abounds with cultural and historical sights, lots of them situated within Split’s historical nucleus, which has been inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List ever since 1979.

The staff at Adventure Life made planning my family's trip to the Galapagos Islands as easy as possible. They listened to what we were hoping to experience and made thoughtful suggestions about how to accomplish our vacation goals while meeting the needs of travelers ages 17-76! They patiently answered questions and follow up questions in the months leading up to the trip. They helped us trouble shoot and customize the trip in every way possible. The logistics involved in traveling from Boston to the Galapagos are innumerable. The Adventure Life staff helped us arrange every detail and the team they assembled in the Galapagos was tremendous. I have never done a trip this big before and after working with Adventure Life this time--would not hesitate one second in working with them again.

The info on the website was laid out very well. I did some comparisons with other tours and found Adventure Life met a lot of what I wanted in an Antarctica trip at the cheapest price. Requested a quote on Claudia contacted me right away. She answered a lot of questions the I had via email even though she offered to discuss via phone call. I’m more of an email person so appreciated how she accommodated that and answered all my questions. And when I was ready to book, she quickly got the ball rolling with getting our spots reserved on the trip my friend and I wanted. Thanks again, Claudia!
