Island of Central & Southern Dalmatia
1 week ex Trogir - departures on Saturdays

day	description
Saturday	From 11:30 am to 1:30 pm, boarding time in the port of Trogir. Our representatives will welcome you aboard with a drink and you will get to know the crew and the other passengers. After a lunch snack “Cast off!”, heading towards Bol, on the island of Brač. Here you will discover one of the most beautiful beaches in the entire Mediterranean – “Zlatni Rat” (the Golden Horn), which is constantly changing direction due to the ocean currents. Of course, you will have plenty of time for swimming and sunbathing at this famous beach. For guests arriving later, transfer to Bol and boarding in the evening. Overnight stay in the harbour of Bol.
Sunday	Today’s destination is the town of Korčula, the main town on the island. Korčula has one of the most beautiful old towns in Dalmatia and due to its fortress-like appearance, it is often named “Little Dubrovnik”. Because of its vast pine forests the island in ancient times was also called “the Black Island”. Overnight stay in the birthplace of the famous navigator and explorer Marco Polo.
Monday	In around three hours by boat from Korčula we will reach the island of Lastovo, which has been closed to foreign visitors for decades, since it used to be a military base at the time of the former Yugoslavia. The island has preserved its authenticity and is therefore an oasis of tranquillity, with lush Mediterranean vegetation. A few years ago, the archipelago of Lastovo was declared a natural park (entrance fee approx. € 3 per person, to be paid on-site). We anchor in the bay of Sveti Mihajlo, close to the village of Lastovo, where you will have plenty of time for exploring the surroundings. In the afternoon, we will return to the island of Korčula, more precisely to Vela Luka. The village lies in a deep, sheltered bay at the western end of the island. Vela Luka is not only the favourite theme in the beautiful songs of the Dalmatian “Klapas” (small, mostly male vocal groups, who often sing “a cappella”, i.e. without musical instruments), but it is also the birthplace of some of the most famous Croatian singers. In case of bad weather, instead of Vela Luka, we will anchor in the port of Ubli, on the island of Lastovo for our overnight stay.
Tuesday	Today, after a swimming break, we will visit the second “forbidden” island of our journey – Vis. The island of Vis was, just like Lastovo, closed to foreign visitors until the end of the 1980s. Where once there was an Air Force runway, now there are vineyards. We will be staying in the port of Komiža, a peaceful town on the west coast. Before the trip to Komiža, we will visit, if possible, the “Blue Cave” on the islet of Biševo. Since the visit of the cave depends on the weather, it will take place on Tuesday or Wednesday, depending on the forecast.
Wednesday	Just five nautical miles from Komiža there is the small island of Biševo, with the famous “Blue Cave” (Modra Špilja). Around midday, the rays of the sun will spill through an underwater opening into the cave and reflect from the white ocean floor, thus bathing the cave into blue light. This unique manifestation can be observed only in calm seas. The trip to the cave is done with small boats (about € 5-7 per person, not included in the tour price). On our trip to Vis, the capital of the island, we anchor in a bay on the northern coast for a swim. The town of Vis is situated in a deep, sheltered bay.
Thrusday	After a stop in a bay, we will head towards Stari Grad, the oldest settlement on the island of Hvar. Stari Grad (“old town”) was once the capital of the island, called “Pharos”, but has lost its leadership centuries ago to the city of Hvar. Even today, well-preserved monuments bear witness of the splendour of times past, like the Palace of Hektorović. Stari Grad has, however, kept its role as the centre of viticulture on the island of Hvar and every year, at the end of September, you may witness long queues outside the wineries, when growers deliver their grapes.
Friday	After breakfast we weigh anchor and head towards the last island of our voyage – Šolta. The island is characterized by extensive olive groves, which produce first-class, extremely dark olive oil. For swimming, we anchor in a bay which is accessible only by boat or canoe. Back from Šolta, we return to Trogir. Be captivated by the unique atmosphere in the streets of the old town, also called “the Museum City” and protected by the UNESCO.
Saturday	After breakfast, around 9:00 am, disembarkation.

NAUTICAL PARADISE, Unesco World Heritage & NATIONAL PARKS
1 week ex Trogir - departures on Saturdays

day	description
Saturday	From 11:30 am to 1:30 pm, boarding time in the port of Trogir. Our representatives will welcome you aboard with a drink and you will get to know the crew and the other passengers. After a lunch snack “Cast off!”, heading towards Rogoznica, a picturesque fishing village, situated on an island connected to the mainland by a causey. Along the way we will anchor in a bay to enjoy the first dip into the refreshing waters of the Adriatic Sea. For passengers arriving later, transfer to Rogoznica and boarding in the evening.
Sunday	We leave the mainland and head towards one of the islands in the archipelago of Šibenik for a nice swim. We then cruise to Zadar, the cultural and economic centre of northern Dalmatia. The old town, with its numerous religious and secular monuments, is located on a peninsula and surrounded by thick walls. Take your time for a stroll through the streets of the Old Town or enjoy the worldwide unique sounds of the “Sea Organs”, whose “melodies” are created only by waves. Overnight stay in the harbour of Zadar.
Monday	Our journey continues to the south. Today’s destination is the island of Dugi Otok, the “Long Island”, since it is 45 km long and only a few hundred meters wide. The majority of the islanders live and work in Zadar; therefore in low tourist season it is very quiet during the week, while on weekends, the typical Mediterranean bustle of the “city families” returning to their hometowns takes over. After a swim we head for Telašćica, a deep-cut bay in the south of the island of Dugi Otok, which is also a Nature Park (admission about 5-8 € per person, payable on-site). We recommend a walk to the “Silver Lake” – known from the Winnetou movie –, a saltwater lake with an underground connection to the sea. From the lake you can reach the approximately 100 meter high cliffs, which offer a breathtaking sea view – in case of good visibility, even across the Adriatic Sea all the way to Italy.
Tuesday	According to the Irish author George Bernard Shaw (who received a Nobel Prize in Literature in 1925), ”On the last day of creation, God crowned his work, and thus created, out of tears, stars and breath, the Kornati Islands”. The beautiful scenery, countless small and large islands (according to local lore “an island for every day of the year”), and the beautiful sea - all this makes the Kornati Islands a unique paradise. It is the largest and most dense archipelago in the Adriatic Sea – it comprises 147 islands, islets and reefs with a total area of 69 km2, spread over 230 km2. They cover an area of 35 km of length and 13 km of width among the islands of Dugi Otok in the north-west, Žirje in the southeast, and Pasman, Vrgada and Murter in the north and northeast. We cruise along the entire length of the Kornati Islands, and after a swim, we enter the harbour of Vodice, a lively holiday resort. In the evening, enjoy a glass of wine in one of the cosy taverns or Konobas.
Wednesday	A few miles further south, we leave the Adriatic Sea and turn into the embouchure of the River Krka. We go upriver and anchor in Skradin, shortly before the famous Krka waterfalls. From there, smaller boats will take you to the National Park. You will have the opportunity to visit “Skradinski Buk”, the most popular part of the waterfall area, where in 17 falls, with up to 100 m broad cascades, the Krka rushes 45.7 meters down. Make sure you don’t forget to bring your bathing suit – a swim in the clear waters of the River Krka just below the falls is a truly unique experience. (Park entrance, including boat ride: € 11-14, payable on-site). On our return to the Adriatic Sea we will stop in Šibenik. Šibenik, mentioned for the first time in 1006, is the youngest of the larger cities on the coast, and at the same time, the oldest Croatian town; as it was not built by Greeks, Romans, or Byzantines, but founded by Croats. The most famous building in the fortress-like old town is St. Jacob’s Cathedral, the most important Renaissance monument in Croatia. After a stroll through the old town, we will return to the islands and anchor in the small port of the fishing village of Zlarin on the homonymous island.
Thrusday	Our first destination today is Split, Croatia’s second largest city and main city in Dalmatia. The 1700 years old city was once the palace of the Roman Emperor Diocletian, and is now under the protection of the UNESCO. After a city tour, we leave Split and head for the island of Šolta. The island is characterized by extensive olive groves, which produce first class, very dark olive oil. For our overnight stay we tie up in the cosy harbour of the town of Stomorska.
Friday	We leave the island of Šolta and serenely return to the starting point of our journey. Of course, on the way we will anchor in one of the many coves for a refreshing swimming break. In the early evening we will reach Trogir, also called “the Museum City”, since its old town is protected by the UNESCO. Enjoy the experience of walking through the winding streets in the afternoon or evening, and discover walls, towers, churches, frescoes and vaults or just take a look into the old yards.
Saturday	After breakfast, around 9:00 am, disembarkation.

HIGHLIGHTS of CENTRAL DALMATIA & DUBROVNIK RIVIERA
1 week ex Trogir - departures on Saturdays

day	description
Saturday	From 11:30 am to 1:30 pm, boarding time in the port of Trogir. Our representatives will welcome you aboard with a drink and you will get to know the crew and the other passengers. After a lunch snack “Cast off!” We stop in one of the bays on the island of Čiovo, where we will have our first chance to dip into the crystal clear waters of the Adriatic Sea. We then continue to Makarska Riviera, known for its beautiful fine gravel beaches which line up here, punctuated by rocky formations, like a pearl necklace. Overnight stay in Brela, Baška Voda or Makarska. For guests arriving later – transfer to Makarska Riviera and boarding in the evening.
Sunday	Passing the islands of Brač and Hvar, we head towards the peninsula of Pelješac, famous for its excellent red wine. After a swim in one of the coves of Pelješac, we head for the bay of Pomena, on the island of Mljet. Part of the island was declared National Park – two saltwater lakes (in the larger of the two lakes you will find a small island with a former monastery) are connected to the sea by a narrow channel. Don’t miss the opportunity to visit the National Park (admission, including the boat ride to the monastery: about 15 €, payable on-site). We recommend a swim in the saltwater lakes, where the temperature is always 2°C above the temperature of the sea. Overnight stay in Pomena.
Monday	We leave the island of Mljet and continue our journey south. After a swimming break at the Elafiti Islands, we will enter the port of Dubrovnik at around 4:00 pm (distance to the old town: a good half hour walk or a few minutes by bus, which departs from right next to our vessels; the bus leaves every 15 minutes, the fare is 10 kunas, last return journey at around 2.00 am) and you have the rest of the day to discover and enjoy this unique town, which resembles a museum. Stroll through the famous “Stradun”, take a walk along the massive city walls and visit the many sights.
Tuesday	Dubrovnik is also called the “Pearl of the Adriatic”, since in the Middle Ages the city counted among the most important economic and cultural centres of the Mediterranean area. Today, the Old City unfolds a unique open air museum with countless attractions. We will have plenty of time to explore the old town of Dubrovnik, since today we will set sail only at midday. Overnight stay in the small town of Slano, a picturesque fishing village; it lies north of Dubrovnik, in a deep bay, which in earlier times was used as a natural harbour. Before we anchor in Slano, we will stop at the Elafiti Islands, where we will take a refreshing dip in one of the many bays. Alternatively, overnight stay in a fishing village on the island of Šipan.
Wednesday	We continue north and head for the island of Korčula. Korčula has one of the most beautiful old towns in Dalmatia and because of its fortress-like appearance it is often called “Little Dubrovnik”. In antiquity, the island was also named “the Black Island”, due to its vast pine forests. Overnight stay in the birthplace of the famous sailor and explorer Marco Polo.
Thrusday	From Korčula we set sail towards Hvar – the island, known for its mild climate and vast lavender fields. The port of the homonymous capital of the island lies at the foot of a fortress, which offers a fantastic view on the offshore island group of “Pakleni otoci“. Due to the large number of ships and yachts, it may be crowded in the small harbour of Hvar; therefore the captain may decide to moor in a nearby cove, instead of spending the night in Hvar.
Friday	We pass the island of Brač and after a swimming break in a bay on the island of Šolta, we will bid farewell to Dalmatian islands and return to the starting point of our journey, Trogir, with its beautiful old town, protected by the UNESCO and also called “the Museum City”. Enjoy the experience of walking through the winding streets in the afternoon or evening, and discover walls, towers, churches, frescoes and vaults or just take a look into the old yards.
Saturday	After breakfast, around 9:00 am, disembarkation.

Through Central & Southern DALMATIA to MONTENEGRO
2 weeks ex Trogir - departures on Saturdays

This two-week route is certainly the highlight of our cruise programme; we could also call it the “Royal Route”. We will visit the UNESCO cities of Trogir, Split and Dubrovnik, the “forbidden islands” of Lastovo and Vis, and, last but not least, the “Land of the Black Mountains” – Montenegro, an independent state since May 2006. On a full-day bus tour we will enjoy a unique view over the Bay of Kotor from the heights of the Lovčen massif, visit the ancient royal city of Cetinje and stroll through the old town of Budva.
day	description
Saturday	From 11:30 am to 1:30 pm, boarding time in the port of Trogir. Our representatives will welcome you aboard with a drink and you will get to know the crew and the other passengers. After a lunch snack “Cast off!” We anchor in a bay on the island of Čiovo for our first swim, before continuing to Omiš or the Makarska Riviera. Overnight stay in Omiš, Brela, Baška Voda or Makarska. For passengers arriving later, transfer to Omiš or to the Makarska Riviera, and boarding in the evening.
Sunday	Passing the islands of Brač and Hvar, we will set sail towards the peninsula of Pelješac, known for its excellent red wine. After a long swimming break at Pelješac, we will head for the island of Korčula. Korčula has one of the most beautiful old towns in Dalmatia, and because of its fortress-like appearance it is often called “Little Dubrovnik”. In antiquity, the island was also called “the Black Island”, due to its vast pine forests. Overnight stay in the birthplace of the famous sailor and explorer Marco Polo.
Monday	We continue our trip towards south and stop for a swim in one of the bays of the island of Mljet. Our today’s destination are the Elafiti islands. Overnight stay in the fishermen’s village of Suđurađ on the island of Šipan or in a bay.
Tuesday	After breakfast, we weigh anchor and sail towards Cavtat where we will pass the customs formalities. After about two hours we will reach the southern end of Croatia and leave the Croatian territorial waters, heading towards Montenegro. We turn into the Bay of Kotor, which, surrounded by high mountains, extends 25 km into the mainland. After the passport control in the city of Zelenika, we sail deeper into the Bay of Kotor and arrive to the small island “Gospa od Škrpjela“ (“Lady of the Rocks”). The island was artificially created from stones that were piled up on an underwater reef. Don’t miss the baroque church, built in 1630, with more than 70 oil paintings from the second half of the 17th Century and the museum of Greek and Latin inscriptions, with weapons and votive images from the 16th to 19th century. Just a few minutes by boat from the small island, there is the city of Perast, where we will moor for the night. Perast had its period of highest prosperity in the 17th and 18th century, owing to seafaring and shipbuilding – the Perast merchant fleet at that time counted about 100 ships.
Wednesday	We will continue our journey towards the end of the bay, to the city of Kotor. The city walls of Kotor are certainly unique – they embrace not only the small triangular city centre, but also the mountain Sveti Ivan (260 m) right behind it. The city walls are 5 km long, 3-15 m wide and up to 20 m high. After mooring in the port of Kotor, the tour guide will already be waiting to accompany us on a full-day bus trip into the beautiful “Land of the Black Mountains”. From Kotor, we will drive along a narrow and meandering road into the Lovčen massif, from where we will have an incredible panoramic view over the whole bay of Kotor. We will stop in the village of Njeguši, best known for its air-dried ham. Enjoy a culinary break with ham, cheese and freshly baked bread (included in the price), accompanied by a glass of red wine “Vranac”. We continue to Cetinje, Montenegro’s former capital and the former seat of the Montenegrin kings. During the city tour we will also visit the palace of King Nikola of Montenegro, now a museum. You may be surprised to hear about the great power of his political relations, which gave him the nickname “Father in law of Europe”; he knew how to marry his beautiful daughters to the European royal courts. We drive to the coast and make a photo stop overlooking the little island of Sveti Stefan, a former pirate’s nest, which today is an exclusive hotel. We then continue on to Budva, the main holiday destination on the Montenegrin coast. Guided tour around the picturesque Old Town, which was completely destroyed in 1979 by a severe earthquake, and rebuild true-to-detail only in the late 1980s. Now you will have plenty of free time to stroll through the town, enjoy a cup coffee or an ice cream. And if you’ve brought your bathing suit, we recommend a visit to the beautiful beach of Mogren, just five minutes from Budva’s Old Town. Return to the boat, dinner at 8.00 pm; the boat will moor and overnight in Kotor.
Thrusday	We will leave at 7:30 am towards Kotor, a town with a long maritime tradition, which was once in close competition with Durbovnik as far as wealth is concerned. One hour later we will go through passport control in Zelenika and leave the Kotor bay and Montenegro. After about four hours we will reach Cavtat. Another passport control, and we will head to Dubrovnik, where we will moor in the port of Gruž (distance to the Old Town: a good half hour walk or a few minutes by bus, departing in the immediate vicinity of our boat. The bus leaves every 15 minutes; the fare is 10 kunas; last bus around 2.00 am). You will have the whole afternoon and evening to discover and enjoy this unique town, which resembles an open air museum. Stroll through the famous “Stradun”, take a walk along the massive city walls and visit the countless sights.
Friday	Morning in Dubrovnik. At lunchtime, we will say goodbye to the “Pearl of the Adriatic” and head towards the Elafiti Islands where we will anchor in one of the numerous bays to have a bath in the crystal clear water. We continue to Slano where we will moor for overnight stay.
Saturday	We will serenely cruise to the bay of Pomena, on the island of Mljet. Part of the island was declared National Park – two saltwater lakes (in the larger of the two lakes there is a small island with a former monastery) are connected to the sea by a narrow channel. Don’t miss the opportunity to visit the National Park (admission including the boat ride to the monastery: about € 15, payable on-site). We recommend a swim in the saltwater lakes, where the temperature is always 2°C above the temperature of the sea.
Sunday	We sail to the island of Lastovo, which was closed to foreign visitors for decades, since it used to be a military base at the time of former Yugoslavia. The island has preserved its authenticity and is therefore an oasis of tranquillity, with lush Mediterranean vegetation. A few years ago, the archipelago of Lastovo was declared a natural park (entrance fee approx. € 3 per person, to be paid on-site). After a swimming break, we will anchor at the port of Ubli, or in the sheltered bay Velo Lago. Since the trip to the island of Lastovo depends on the weather conditions, in case of bad weather we will sail to Vela Luka on the island of Korčula.
Monday	Today we will visit the second “forbidden” island of our journey – Vis. The island of Vis was, just like Lastovo, closed to foreign visitors until the end of the 1980s. Where there was once an Air Force runway, now there are vineyards. We will be staying in the port of Komiža, a peaceful town on the west coast.
Tuesday	Just five nautical miles from Komiža, there is the small island of Biševo, with the famous “Blue Cave” (Modra Špilja). Around midday, the rays of the sun will spill through an underwater opening into the cave, and reflect from the white ocean floor, thus bathing the cave into blue light. This unique sight can be observed only in calm seas. The trip to the cave is done with small boats (about € 5-7 per person, not included in the tour price). From Biševo we set sail for Hvar – the island is known for its mild climate and vast lavender fields. Here you can also buy lavender – either as essential oil in small bottles, or as dried flowers in small cloth bags, which will not only make your closet smell of lavender, but also function as an excellent protection against moths. The harbour of the homonymous main town lies at the foot of an island fortress, from which you will have a fantastic panoramic view over the offshore island group of “Pakleni otoci”. Due to the large number of ships and yachts, it may be crowded in the small harbour of Hvar; therefore the captain may decide to moor in a nearby cove, instead of spending the night in Hvar.
Wednesday	We continue to Stari Grad, the oldest settlement on the island of Hvar. Stari Grad (old town), once called “Pharos”, used to be the capital of the island, but has lost its leadership centuries ago to the town of Hvar. Even today, well-preserved monuments bear witness of the splendour of times past, like the Palace of Hektorović. Stari Grad has, however, kept its role as the centre of viticulture on the island of Hvar and every year, at the end of September, you may witness long queues outside the wineries, when growers deliver their grapes. From Stari Grad, we sail to Bol, on the island of Brač. Here you can visit Dalmatia’s most famous beach – Zlatni Rat (the Golden Horn), which changes its direction with the ocean currents. Of course, you will have plenty of time for a refreshing dip from this famous beach. Overnight stay in the port of Bol.
Thrusday	Our today’s destination is Split, Croatia’s second largest city and capital of Dalmatia. The 1700 years old city was once the palace of the Roman Emperor Diocletian, and is today under the protection of the UNESCO. After a guided city tour, the rest of the day is at your disposal to stroll through the old town on your own. Overnight stay in the harbour of Split.
Friday	Around 11:00 am, we leave Split and sail to a cove of the island of Čiovo to enjoy the last swim in the waters of the Adriatic Sea. Then we will return to the starting point of our two weeks voyage, Trogir, with its beautiful old town, protected by the UNESCO, also called “the Museum City”. Enjoy the experience of walking through the winding streets in the afternoon or evening, and discover walls, towers, churches, frescoes and vaults or just take a look into the old yards.

Island Hopping by Bicycle through Central & Southern DALMATIA with Island of Vis & Rafting on Cetina River
1 week ex Trogir - departures on Saturdays

day	description
Saturday	From 11:30 am to 1:30 pm, boarding time in the port of Trogir, our bicycles are awaiting you already on board. Our representatives and guides will welcome you aboard with a drink and you will get to know the crew and the other passengers. After a lunch snack “Cast off!”, heading towards Maslinica – the village is named after the Croatian olive tree (“Maslina”) – on the island of Šolta. Šolta is one of the smaller Dalmatian islands and is known among connoisseurs for the high quality dark olive oil. We will ride through traditional old villages: Lower Village, Middle Village, Upper Village – that’s how the three villages on the island are called (Donje, Srednje, Gornje Selo). In Gornje Selo, we will visit an olive oil mill, where we will enjoy olive oil tasting as well. In Stomorska, we load our bikes on deck, and after lunch on board, we head for Milna on the island of Brač for overnight stay (approx. 20 kilometres by bike).
Sunday	Today we will cross the island of Brač, from north to south – our destination is the resort of Bol, with one of the most beautiful beaches of the Mediterranean area, the Zlatni Rat (the Golden Horn). The route takes us from Milna through Ložišća, Nerežišća and Gornji Humac to Bol – on the road, we will have lunch and enjoy a glass of wine in a typical Dalmatian “Konoba”. Those who after riding uphill to the height of some 500 m above sea level, are aiming even higher, can join us “mountaineering” all the way up to the Vidova Gora mountain – with its 778 meters the highest mountain on the Adriatic islands. You will be rewarded with a magnificent view over the islands of Šolta, Hvar and Korčula, the peninsula of Pelješac and the “Golden Horn” beach. Dinner and overnight stay in the picturesque harbour of Bol (approx. 39 or 55 km).
Monday	During breakfast, we sail to Stari Grad on the island of Hvar. Hvar is the Adriatic island with the most hours of sunshine and the mildest climate. Our first today’s bike trip leads us via Vrbanj and Jelsa to Vrboska, and back to Stari Grad. Sightseeing of Stari Grad, the oldest settlement on the island. You can have lunch in one of the restaurants in Stari Grad. After lunch, you can decide either to continue by boat, or to ride a bicycle through endless fields of lavender and vineyards via Selca to the capital Hvar, where in the afternoon we will meet our ship again. Dinner on board. Due to the large number of ships and yachts, it may be crowded in the small harbour of Hvar; therefore the captain may decide to moor in a nearby cove, instead of spending the night in Hvar (approx. 23 or 46 km).
Tuesday	After breakfast we set sail and head towards the “forbidden” island of Vis. Under socialist rule there was a major military base on the island, therefore foreigners were not allowed to visit. As part of the democratization of the country, the military has withdrawn, and on the former runway of the military airport now wine is cultivated. Vis is a subtropical paradise with widely unspoiled nature. Upon arrival at the port of Vis we continue by bicycle to the second major city on the island – Komiža. Time for lunch in Komiža, and then we will ride back to Vis. Dinner on board. Overnight stay in the harbour of Vis (approx. 35 km).
Wednesday	“Cast off!” early in the morning, and after about three hours cruise, we will run into the bay of Vela Luka on the island of Korčula. The island – its antique name is Korkyra – is also called “the Black Island”, due to its vast pine forests. Past Blato, Smokvica, Čara, Pupnat and Žrnovo, our route takes us to the town of Korčula, in the south-east of the island. We will circumnavigate the toughest gradients on small local roads. On the way we will stop at a “Konoba” or a tavern. Dinner is served on board, with a magnificent view on the stunning backdrop of the old town of Korčula. Overnight stay in Korčula (approx. 50 km).
Thrusday	We leave Korčula and enjoy the view over the Old Town in the morning sun, while heading north-west towards our next destination – past the peninsula of Pelješac and the islands of Hvar and Brač, towards the mainland. We tie up at the port of Omiš, a small town at the mouth of the Cetina river. In thousands of years the Cetina river shaped a canyon and created bizarre formations in the stone of the riverbed. The crystal clear water, the high cliffs – up to 180 m –, the waterfalls and lakes offer sights of an unspoilt nature. By bike we ride inland, through the river canyon. We ride along the river Cetina to Pavića Most. While the bikes are brought back to the boat in Omiš by minibus, we continue our tour with large inflatable boats. Of course, before starting our rafting tour and after an energy snack, we will receive the appropriate equipment, and the boats will be steered by experienced skippers. The rafting trip will last approx. 3 hours and take us downriver to the mills “Radmanove Mlinice”. Transfer from Radmanove Mlinice to Omiš; from there we continue by motorized sailing boat to Split.

Island Hopping by Bicycle through Central & Southern Dalmatia with Dubrovnik1 week ex Trogir - departures on Saturdays

day	description
Saturday	From 11:30 am to 1:30 pm, boarding time in the port of Trogir, our bicycles are awaiting you already on board. Our representatives and guides will welcome you aboard with a drink and you will get to know the crew and the other passengers. After a lunch snack “Cast off!”, heading towards Supetar on the island of Brač, the third largest island in the Adriatic Sea. Brač is also known for its white limestone, which is mined here – buildings all over the world, including the White House in Washington, or the Reichstag in Berlin, are built out of it. After arriving in Supetar we take our bikes and ride over Splitska and Postira to Pučišća. Overnight stay in the Port of Pučišća (approx. 23 km by bike).
Sunday	After breakfast, we leave the island of Brač and head towards Pelješac, the second largest peninsula in Croatia. In Lovište, a small town tucked in a bay on the north-western end of the peninsula, we unload the bikes and ride past Viganj and Kučište to Orebić. Orebić is the capital of the peninsula and is located at the foot of Mount Sveti Ilija (961 m). From here, we will enjoy a magnificent view over the sea and the island of Korčula. In Orebić, you will have the choice to return to the ship, or to continue the bike tour, through the wine regions of Postup and Dingač, all the way to Trstenik, where we will spend the night (approx. 19 or 44 km).
Monday	We will ride our bikes to the small town of Žuljana, where there is one of the most beautiful beaches on the Adriatic Sea. We then continue to Ston and Mali Ston, two villages connected by an impressive wall. The wall was built in the 14th Century; it is 5.5 kilometres long, hence, the second-longest in the world. There is also the oldest and largest saline (marine salt works) of the entire Mediterranean area, which was built before Christ. Mali Ston is widely known for its mussel and oyster farming. After a break in Ston, our tour takes us 3 km back to Prapratno, where we will board our ship and sail to the Elafiti Islands. Overnight stay in Šipanska Luka on the island of Šipan (approx. 40 km).
Tuesday	The Elafiti archipelago consists of thirteen islands and islets, of which only three are inhabited – Šipan, Lopud and Koločep. The islands used to be the summer residence of the Dubrovnik aristocracy, and you may still admire many magnificent mansions. Today’s short bike ride takes us from Šipanska Luka to Suđurađ on the island of Šipan. From here we will cruise to Dubrovnik, where we will arrive at lunchtime. After lunch on board, you will enjoy the afternoon and the evening, discovering the unique old town of Dubrovnik, which looks like a museum. The distance from the port to the old town is a good half hour walk or a few minutes by bus, which leaves from right next to our ships (approximately every 15 minutes, the fare is 10 kunas, last bus at around 2.00 am). Stroll through the famous “Stradun”, take a walk along the massive city walls and visit the countless attractions. Overnight stay in Dubrovnik (approx. 9 km).
Wednesday	We leave Dubrovnik and sail to the island of Mljet. Part of the island was declared a National Park – two saltwater lakes (in the larger of the two lakes there is a small island with a former monastery) are connected to the sea by a narrow channel. We anchor in Prožura and continue on our bikes. At an easy pace we will ride through the forests of the island to Pomena. There, the ship will be waiting for us to take us to Korčula. Korčula has one of the most beautiful old towns in Dalmatia and because of its fortress-like appearance it is often called “Little Dubrovnik”. In antiquity, the island was also called “the Black Island”, due to its vast pine forests. Overnight stay in the harbour of Korčula (approx. 35 km).
Thrusday	After breakfast we take a short bike ride to the small fishing village of Račišće. From here we will cruise towards the island of Hvar. After lunch on board and a swimming break, we will reach the town of Hvar, the homonymous capital of the island. We ride through endless lavender fields and vineyards to Stari Grad, the oldest settlement on the island, founded in the 4th Century BC as the Greek colony of Pharos. Hvar is also the Adriatic island with the highest number of hours of sunshine and the mildest climate. Overnight stay in the harbour of Stari Grad (approx. 13 and 24 km).
Friday	Two hours by ship from Stari Grad to Stomorska, on the island of Šolta. Šolta is one of the smaller Dalmatian islands and is known among connoisseurs for the high quality dark olive oil. We will ride through traditional old villages: Upper Village, Middle Village, Lower Village – that’s how the three communities on the island are called (Gornje, Srednje, Donje Selo). In Maslinica, the village named after the Croatian olive tree (“Maslina”), we load our bikes on deck for the last time and return to Trogir after lunch and after the last swimming break. In the evening we will enjoy the unique atmosphere of the old town of Trogir, with its narrow alleys and courtyards, and perhaps we will even listen to a Dalmatian “Klapa” intoning their songs. Overnight stay at the Riva of Trogir (approx. 20 km).
Saturday	After breakfast, around 9:00 am, disembarkation.
What’s included?… 8 days’ cruise according to the itinerary “half board plus” incl. lunch snack on embarkation and Captain’s dinner (= 2?x full board + 5?x half board) English and German speaking guides during the whole cruise (one guide up to 20 persons, two guides for more than 20 persons) bike rental incl. helmet guided bicycle tours according to the itinerary

"Active & Cappuccino" Cruise through Central & South Dalmatia1 week ex Trogir - departures on Saturdays

After years of success of our “Island Hopping by Bicycle” and our Hiking cruises, we have decided to combine the two tours and add a twist of culture. Thus, we created a cruise, which could be best described as “active light”. The program – always accompanied by a guide – is perfect for all those who would like to spend their cruise time not only on the sun deck and in the crystal clear waters of the Adriatic Sea, but still don’t want to participate in daily bike rides of 40 or 50 km or hours of hiking. A colourful mixture of sun, swimming, leisurely bike tours (approx. 6 up to 13 km), sightseeing tours, walks, short hikes and, as a highlight, an easy rafting trip. And of course there will be enough time to relax or to happily enjoy a cappuccino. Our “Active & Cappuccino” cruise is also ideal for families with children, because kid’s bicycles can be booked upon request. Following the motto “You can do it all – or just relax”, you can decide, which activities you wish to participate in, or if you prefer spending a day or more on board simply relaxing.
day	description
Saturday	From 11:30 am to 1:30 pm, boarding time in the port of Trogir, our bicycles are awaiting you already on board. Our representatives and guides will welcome you aboard with a drink and you will get to know the crew and the other passengers. After a lunch snack we weigh anchor and head towards one of the bays at the island of Čiovo, to take the first jump into the waters of the Adriatic Sea. After a long swimming break, we sail to Split, Croatia’s second largest city and the capital of Dalmatia. The 1700 year old city was built around the palace of the Roman Emperor Diocletian; today it is protected by the UNESCO. After a city tour, we take a guided walk through the forest park Marjan, located on the homonymous mountain (178 m). Today it is a nature reserve, and there are more than 400 different protected plants. Dinner and overnight stay in the port of Split with its lively atmosphere of a Mediterranean metropolis.
Sunday	After breakfast on board, we invite you for a cappuccino on the famous Riva of Split and watch the bustle of the promenade, before we cast off and head to the island of Brač, located just opposite Split. We drop the anchor in one of the numerous coves with crystal clear water and enjoy a pleasant dip. Lunch on board during the swimming break. The afternoon is reserved for the town of Bol, where we’ll find the most famous beach in Croatia – Zlatni Rat (the “Golden Horn”) – which extends approx. 300 m into the sea. It’s a natural phenomenon, because the tip of the beach is constantly changing its direction with ocean currents, and every few years – during the rare winter storms – the beach is entirely washed away; anyhow, two or three days later it will reappear in all its glory! After our arrival to Bol, you can take a short bike ride to the beach of Zlatni Rat and then go on to the Dominican monastery (approx. 6 km by bike). If you wish, we continue the ride to the village of Murvica, located west of Bol (approx. 10 km). You can have dinner in one of the restaurants in Bol, overnight stay in the little harbour.
Monday	On our trip to the island of Hvar, we will first take a swim in a cove on the islet of Zečevo. Then, we continue to the picturesque fishing village of Jelsa. After lunch on board, we ride by bicycle along the seaside to Vrboska and continue to Stari Grad, the oldest settlement on the island of Hvar (approx. 13 km). Stari Grad (the “Old Town”) was once known under the name “Pharos”, the capital of the island, but has lost its leadership centuries ago to the town of Hvar. Still, well maintained monuments bear witness of the splendour of those times, like the Palace Hektorović. Stari Grad has, however, kept its role as the centre of wine production on the island of Hvar, and every year at the end of September, long queues form outside the winery, where wine-makers hand over their grapes. Overnight stay in Stari Grad.
Tuesday	We sail around the north-western tip of the island of Hvar towards the homonymous capital of the island. After a guided walk through the city, we’ll take a 20-minute climb to the fortress “Španjola”. From here, we enjoy the unique view over the old town of Hvar and on the offshore islands “Pakleni otoci”. We return to the boat, and during lunch we head towards the island of Korčula. In the fishing village of Račišće we unload the bikes from the deck to ride along the shore to the town of Korčula (approx. 13 km). Korčula has one of the most beautiful old towns in Dalmatia, and because of its fortress-like appearance it is often referred to as “Little Dubrovnik”. In antiquity, because of its vast pine forests, the island was also called the “Black Island”. Overnight stay in the native town of the famous mariner and explorer Marco Polo.
Wednesday	After breakfast we leave Korčula and cruise to the island of Mljet. Part of the island was declared a national park – two saltwater lakes (in the larger of the two there is a small island with a former monastery) are connected only by a narrow channel to the sea. We moor in the small port of Pomena, just a few steps away from the entrance to the national park. After lunch on board, you can choose whether you want to explore the national park by bicycle or on foot, on one of the many hiking trails. The tour price also includes a boat trip across the big lake to the monastery island. We recommend that you bring your bathing suit, since the temperature of the salt water lakes is always 2°C above the temperature of the sea. After visiting the national park, we enter a deserted bay for the night. In this idyll the Captain’s Dinner will be served in the evening.
Thrusday	We head back north and moor in Orebić on the peninsula of Pelješac. Pelješac is the second largest Croatian peninsula, well-known as the producing area of famous wines such as Postup and Dingač. Orebić is the main centre of the peninsula and is located at the foot of the mountain Sveti Ilija (961 m). After a tour through the town, we walk to the Franciscan convent from the 16th century, 152 meters above sea level. From here there are panoramic views over the sea and the opposite island of Korčula. After lunch on board, in Orebić we will enjoy wine tasting, to convince you of the quality of the wines from the Pelješac peninsula. Again, we hoist the anchor, cruising along the peninsula to the north-west, past the south-eastern end of the island of Hvar and then sail to the mainland. Our destination is the Makarska Riviera, known for its gorgeous beaches of fine gravel, which here, punctuated by short sections of rock, string together like a pearl necklace. Overnight stay in Brela, Baška Voda or Makarska.
Friday	During breakfast, we sail to Omiš, a small town at the estuary of the river Cetina. In thousands of years the river Cetina shaped a canyon and created bizarre formations in the stone of the riverbed. The crystal clear water, the high cliffs – up to 180 m –, the waterfalls and lakes offer sights of an unspoilt nature. By bike we ride inland, through the river canyon. We ride along the Cetina to the mills “Radmanove Mlinice”. After a short break and a visit of the mills, we return to Omiš and load our bikes on deck (about 13 km). A minibus takes us to the starting point of today’s rafting trip, the village of Pavića Most. Of course, before starting our rafting tour and after an energy snack, we will receive the appropriate equipment, and inflatable boats will be steered by experienced skippers. The rafting trip will last approx. 3 hours and take us downriver to the mills “Radmanove Mlinice”. Transfer to Omiš. Those who do not wish to participate in the rafting trip will have opportunity to stroll through the town of Omiš, or to unwind in one of the cafés in the old town. During a late lunch we will continue by boat to Trogir, the starting point of our journey. The old town of Trogir is protected by the UNESCO and is therefore called the “Museum City”. It is quite an experience walking through the winding streets in the afternoon or evening, admiring the impressive walls, towers, churches, frescoes and ceilings, or every now and then just take a look into the old yards.
Saturday	After breakfast, around 9:00 am, disembarkation.
What’s included?… 8 days’ cruise according to the itinerary “half board plus” incl. Captain’s dinner English and German speaking guide during the whole cruise bike rental incl. helmet guided bicycle tours according to the itinerary guided sightseeings and hikes according to the itinerary cappuccino on the Riva of Split entrance fee to the island of Mljet National Park incl. boat trip to the monastery island entrance fee to the fortress “Španjola” in Hvar wine tasting in Orebić rafting trip on the Cetina river Notice: Although the itinerary is following the motto “You can do it all – or just relax”, and you can decide which activities you wish to participate in, a refund of unused services cannot be applied.

HIKING Cruise through Central DALMATIA
1 week ex Trogir - departures on Saturdays

day	description
Saturday	From 11:30 am to 1:30 pm, boarding time in the port of Trogir. Our representatives and guides will welcome you aboard with a drink and you will get to know the crew and the other passengers. After a lunch snack “Cast off!” and we’re on our way to Split. Walking tour through the old town and visit of the 1700 years old palace of the Roman Emperor Diocletian. For passengers arriving later, transfer to Split and boarding in the evening.
Sunday	We’re sailing towards the island of Brač. Our today’s route will lead us to the “desert” of Blaca. From Bol we walk to the village of Murvica, from where we will continue our tour through the southern part of the island of Brač, after having a short break. We will arrive to one of the most interesting sights of the island – the “desert” of Blaca. The monastery from the 15th century and the observatory prove that once the island’s centre of cultural and intellectual life was here. After the sightseeing of the monastry’s library and the observatory, we will walk downhill to the Blaca bay, where our ship is already awaiting us to bring us to Stari Grad on the neighbor island of Hvar. Overnight in Stari Grad. Walking time: approx. 3:00 hours; ascent and descent, each 300 m altitude difference.
Monday	We will go by minibus to Velo Grablje, a pittoresque village at the height of 320 m. Here we will start our hiking tour through the village of Malo Grablje over a comfortable path downhill to Milna. After a break in Milna, we continue along the sea to the city of Hvar, the capital of the island of the same name. After having lunch aboard, we will enjoy the city tour and the visit of the 16th century citadel, situated high above the city. Due to the large number of ships and yachts, it may be crowded in the small harbour of Hvar; therefore the captain may decide to moor in a nearby cove, instead of spending the night in Hvar. Walking time: approx. 3:30 hours; descent: 320 m; city tour: approx. 2:30 hours.
Tuesday	After breakfast we will cruise from Hvar to the island of Korčula. We will leave our ship in the bay of Kneža and walk slightly uphill on a path that leads mostly through a “tunnel” of Mediterranean plants, to the village of Pupnat. From here we walk back down through an area characterized by a unique network of cliffs, caves, grottos and lush vegetation. Across the villages of Brdo and Žrnovica we come back to Korčula, where our ship is moored. We will spend the rest of the day visiting the birthplace of the famous sailor and explorer Marco Polo. Overnight stay in the harbour of Korčula. Walking time: approx. 5:00 hours; ascent and descent: 410 m each.
Wednesday	A short journey takes us to Orebić, on the Pelješac peninsula. From here we walk to the convent of “Our Lady of Angels”, where we will visit the small maritime museum. We’ll continue along the hillsides of Mount Sv. Ilija, through the deserted village of Čukovac, all the way to Kučište, where our ship will be waiting for us. After lunch, we pass the Pelješac peninsula and head towards the Makarska Riviera, where we will stay overnight in one of the harbours. Walking time: approx. 3:00 hours; ascent and descent: 180 m each.
Thrusday	Minibuses will take us to the highest peak of the Nature Park Biokovo, the Mount Sv. Jure (1762 m). From here we can enjoy a fantastic view over the Biokovo, numerous villages, from Sinj to Vrgorac, and central Bosnian and Herzegovinian mountains. We will walk through the central part of the Biokovo Massif to the Vožac peak (1421 m). This mountain is the perfect conclusion of today’s walking tour, as from there we can see almost all of Central and South Dalmatia – the coastal towns of Trogir and Ploče, all the islands of the Rogoznica Archipelago until Mljet, and of course all the islands we have “conquered” this week. We will then take minibuses back to the ship, which will take us to the island of Šolta. By late afternoon we will moor at the harbour of Stomorska, where we will spend the night. Walking time: approx. 4:00 hours; ascent and descent: 120 m each.
Friday	From Stomorska we will walk to the central part of the island, across Gornje Selo (“the Upper Village”) and through vineyards and olive groves to the bay of Mala Maslinica, near the village of Nečujam. We will continue uphill to Grohote and then again downhill to Rogač, where our ship is moored. By late afternoon we will return to Trogir. The unique atmosphere of this “Museum City” will enchant you; it is on the UNESCO World Heritage List. A guided tour through the historic city centre will show us the most important monuments of Trogir. There is hardly a house without special stylistic features, a crest or an inscription. Numerous palaces and houses, mostly from the 13th century, are well preserved, and there are around ten churches. Walking time: approx. 3:30 hours; ascent and descent: 220 m each.
Saturday	After breakfast, around 9:00 am, disembarkation.
