An English-speaking guide leads a morning city tour of Split, walking through the world-famous Diocletian’s Palace. Split, the second largest city in Croatia, is over 1700 years old and full of cultural and historical sights. Many are located in the old town, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979. At noon, the ship departs for Trogir, another UNESCO-listed city. Lunch is served on board, with a swim stop along the way. Arrival in Trogir is in the afternoon. This town, often called an open-air museum, features many palaces, churches, monasteries, and towers. The main highlight is the Cathedral of St. Lawrence, one of the finest examples of sacral architecture in Croatia. A professional English-speaking guide leads a city tour of Trogir.
Explore on your own in the evening, or enjoy dinner in one of Trogir’s cosy taverns.
In the morning, the ship sails for Bol, a place best known for its beach of Zlatni Rat (Golden Cape), which regularly appears on top lists of the most beautiful European beaches. Once the ship stops in Bol, enjoy simple pleasures such as taking a walk around this nice little Dalmatian town until lunch is served on board. After lunch, cruising continues to Vis. Being an important strategic military stronghold for a long time, Vis avoids excessive tourist development and retains its unspoilt beaches, ecological agriculture, and traditional architecture. Enjoy the afternoon exploring the town of Vis, its picturesque stone streets, pristine beaches, and fine taverns.
For all who are interested, an optional Vis Island excursion is available, including a visit to Komiza, a stunning fishermen's village. Reservations and payment take place on the spot.
Cruising heads to the Island of Bisevo and its Blue Cave, one of the most famous natural attractions in the Adriatic Sea. Blue Cave is a water-logged cave that can be approached only by boat. However, at times, high waves prevent entrance to Blue Cave, which remains unknown until the morning designated for the visit. In case entry is not possible due to sea conditions, a full ticket refund applies. After a swim stop and lunch on board, cruising continues along many coves and bays, towards Hvar, the sunniest Croatian island. Hvar stands out as one of the country’s most attractive tourist destinations and a meeting point for international jetsetters. Upon arrival in Hvar, a local English-speaking guide leads a walk through this unique city, highlighting its millennia-long history, culture, and way of life.
Afterward, enjoy the evening on your own and explore or dine in one of the numerous family-owned restaurants and taverns.
Start the day with a morning departure towards the Island of Korčula. Before lunch on board, a stop for a swim in one of the pristine bays en route is planned. Arrival on the Island of Korcula is scheduled for the afternoon. The town of Korcula 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.
An English-speaking guide takes you for a tour of Korcula Town, through its narrow and cobbled streets and its rich history. Enjoy the rest of the evening dining at one of the local restaurants of your choice.
Sailing out from Korcula in the morning, the cruise continues towards Mljet National Park. You have just enough time to explore the park, walk around Great and Small Lake, visit the Islet of St. Mary with its 12th-century Benedictine Monastery, or take a swim in the heart of Mljet National Park. Entrance fees to National Park Mljet are included. Take care to return to the boat for lunch. In the afternoon, the cruise continues to Slano, located on the mainland. Slano is one of the most picturesque places on the Dubrovnik Riviera, with a beautiful beach, dense pine forest and olive groves, a long cultural tradition, and numerous historical monuments.
In the evening, enjoy Captain’s Dinner on board, along with live music entertainment.

Kate was great to work with in the planning stage. She was prompt, helpful, and efficient. Our tour guide, Edwin, was knowledgeable and passionate. We were very happy to have traveled with Adventure Life, it made the trip easy and a true pleasure. We could concentrate on enjoying the experience rather than the details of travel.
