Day 1: Venice | Embark

Begin your Croatian cruise in Venice, Italy, a city known for its romantic charm. From here, board your Emerald Cruises luxury yacht and set off on a captivating journey filled with history, art, and natural beauty.

Please ensure your flight arrives in Venice before 04:00 PM.

Day 2: Rovinj, Croatia

Situated on the Istrian Peninsula, the charming town of Rovinj in Croatia blends Italian influences with its local culture. This walkable town invites exploration through its narrow, winding streets, where colorful buildings and quaint squares are revealed at every turn. Visitors can discover a variety of art galleries and enjoy the scenic harbor, which is dotted with traditional fishing boats.

Day 3: Sibenik

Today we visit Sibenik, nestled in a sea inlet on Croatia’s gorgeous Adriatic coast. The origins of Šibenik date back to 1066 and there is a plethora of architectural styles to admire. Don’t miss the UNESCO World Heritage-listed St James’ Cathedral, crafted from white stone – just take the stairs from the Riva, the seaside promenade. 

 

Day 4: Trogir

The tiny town of Trogir is a hidden gem, located on a small island between the Croatian mainland and Ciovo Island. For some of the most spectacular views of this photogenic town, climb the tower of the Cathedral of St Lawrence — the highest building in Trog

Day 5: Vis

The island of Vis, off the Croatian mainland, was closed to visitors until 1989. This has given Vis a rare sense of peace and authenticity. The rocky coastline, azure waters and Venetian architecture made the island the ideal backdrop for the film ‘Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again.’ (2018).  

Day 6: Hvar

The heart of island idyll Hvar is the Old Town; while this has developed as a modern-day hotspot, it reveals multiple layers of history and architectural wonders. The Old Town of Hvar presents a photogenic jumble of whitewashed buildings topped with sun-kissed terracotta roofs, and beyond, scenic rolling hills peppered with lavender fields, olive groves, and grapevines. 

Day 7: Korcula

The sixth-largest island in the Adriatic, Korcula is among the most beloved in Croatia. Its Old Town, referred to by the locals as ‘Little Dubrovnik’, is a delightful mix of medieval churches and elegant palaces, and squares, while the villages of Cara and Smokvica are renowned for producing the country’s signature dry white wine.  

Day 8: Dubrovnik | Disembark

  • 1 Breakfast
Your cruise concludes here. From your luxury yacht, you will be transferred to the airport for your journey home or to continue your holiday.

The trip was terrific with great planning on your part. Most of the adventures were not mainstream and somewhat off the beaten path which made it especially enjoyable!! We felt taken care of and you all were readily available to respond to questions and issues. I would highly recommend your company and friends have already expressed interest based on our pictures and excitement.
