Afternoon arrival in Korcula Town, followed by a guided walking tour of this enchanting place surrounded by walls and one of the best-preserved medieval cities in the Mediterranean.

Day 5: Vis

Continue to the island of Vis, once, in the 4th century BC, one of the main Greek colonies. Vis is relatively under the radar for tourists. For a long time, it was used as a Yugoslavian army base – until 1991. As a result, the culture and architecture are extremely well preserved. Rosemary, capers, and sage grow wild around the island. Try some exquisite local wines. If interested, visit the remains of the Roman thermal place, City Museum, or take a walk enjoying the views of the beautiful Villae Rusticae situated along the waterfront. Overnight in the port of Vis.

Day 6: Bisevo | Hvar

Early in the morning, cruising resumes towards the small island of Bisevo to visit the Blue Cave, a magnificent natural phenomenon (entrance fee to be paid on the spot). As sometimes weather conditions can be very unpredictable, the possibility of a cave visit will depend on those conditions. However, the team will notify you as soon as possible. Continue towards the jet-set island of Hvar with a swimming stop and lunch on board at the Pakleni Islands. Hvar, the longest and sunniest island in the Adriatic, is known for its glorious lavender fields and breathtaking beauty. Arrive in the afternoon for the guided tour of Hvar - visit the Renaissance cathedral with its original tower and the oldest community theatre in Europe, founded in 1612.

Beyond expectations! Then again we weren't sure what to expect. Lovely stay at the lodge, met other like-minded travelers (many had their trips planned by Adventure Life) and the owner was a gracious hostess. It felt like you were one happy family, visiting with a favorite aunt.
