Explore the Adriatic Coast
This unique cruise explores a stunning area of the Adriatic coast between the historic cities of Split and Dubrovnik, with intermediate calls on the beautiful islands of Mjlet with its pristine National park, Hvar and Korcula as well as the mainland coastal resorts of Makarska and sleepy Trstenik. Dubrovnik is the highlight of this cruise, and this historic UNESCO world heritage city needs no introduction. The old town inside the Medieval walls will enchant you, and there is much to see in the afternoon, evening, and morning you will spend here. Our cruise ends in Split, which has its own authentic old town that is well worth exploring. The coast and islands have a rich tradition in their cuisine, influenced through the ages by an eclectic range of styles and flavours, from the Venetians, as well as Ottoman and Slavic influences, with each of the islands having its own unique signature dishes and specialities.
