Detailed 8-day itinerary

Select a day to see the complete program. The first day is open by default.

Day 1 / Saturday: Split → Omiš

The ship will approach Split harbour at 14:30 for embarkation. Luggage will be stored on board, and at 15:00 an English-speaking guide will lead a city tour of Split through the historic Diocletian’s Palace. Guests who prefer may remain on board while the group visits Split.

After the city tour, at approximately 17:00, embark and cruise to Omiš, an ancient town known for its city walls, fortresses, stone churches and pirate history. Guests unable to arrive in Split by 17:00 may travel independently to Omiš and embark there.

At 19:00, the Cruise Manager will introduce the crew and your fellow passengers during a welcome meeting. Welcome dinner will be served at 19:30. Guests arriving late at night will be met by the crew and offered a snack, provided advance notice has been given.

Overnight in Omiš. Meals: Dinner.

Day 2 / Sunday: Omiš → Pučišća (Brač Island)

Cruise across the Brač Channel in the morning, with a swim stop in one of the island’s secluded bays. Lunch will be served on board before continuing to Pučišća, the largest village on the island of Brač.

Pučišća is known for its steep-sided natural harbour, authentic Mediterranean architecture and long stonemasonry tradition. Stone from its quarry was used for the White House columns and the Vienna Parliament, and the town is home to Croatia’s only stonemasonry school.

Overnight in Pučišća. Meals: Breakfast and lunch.

Day 3 / Monday: Pučišća → Bol → Hvar

Depart for Bol in the morning. Bol is best known for Zlatni Rat, or Golden Cape, one of Europe’s most celebrated beaches. Enjoy time for a walk, coffee or swim in this charming Dalmatian town before lunch is served on board.

Continue through idyllic coves and bays towards Hvar after lunch. Upon the evening arrival, a local English-speaking guide will introduce the town’s history, culture and island way of life. The rest of the evening is free for exploring and dinner in one of Hvar’s family-owned restaurants or taverns.

Overnight in Hvar Historical Town. Meals: Breakfast and lunch.

Day 4 / Tuesday: Hvar → Biševo Blue Cave → Vis

Cruise to Biševo and its famous Blue Cave, a sea cave accessible only by boat. High waves may occasionally prevent entry, and conditions cannot be confirmed before the scheduled visit. For this reason, the entrance fee is payable on the spot.

Continue to Vis after lunch, arriving in the afternoon. Centuries as a strategic military stronghold protected Vis from excessive tourism development, helping it preserve its beaches, ecological agriculture and traditional architecture. Spend the afternoon exploring the town’s stone streets, beaches and local taverns.

An optional Vis Island excursion, including the fishermen’s village of Komiža, will be available. Reservations and payment are made on the spot.

Overnight in Vis Town. Meals: Breakfast and lunch.

Day 5 / Wednesday: Vis → Korčula

Depart for the island of Korčula in the morning, with a swim stop in a pristine bay before lunch on board. Arrive in Korčula Town during the afternoon.

Known as the birthplace of Marco Polo, Korčula is celebrated for its rich history and atmospheric network of narrow, cobbled streets. An English-speaking guide will lead a walking tour, after which the evening is free for dinner at a local restaurant of your choice.

Overnight in Korčula Historical Town. Meals: Breakfast and lunch.

Day 6 / Thursday: Korčula → Mljet National Park → Slano

Cruise from Korčula to Mljet National Park in the morning. Explore the Great and Small Lakes, visit St. Mary’s Islet and its 12th-century Benedictine Monastery, or swim in the heart of the national park. Entrance to Mljet National Park is not included.

Return to the ship for lunch and continue to Slano on the mainland. Slano is one of the most picturesque places on the Dubrovnik Riviera, with a beautiful beach, pine forest, olive groves and a long cultural tradition. Captain’s Dinner will be served on board in the evening.

Overnight in Slano. Meals: Breakfast, lunch and Captain’s Dinner.

Day 7 / Friday: Slano → Dubrovnik

Depart for Dubrovnik in the morning along the Elaphiti Islands, with a short swim stop and lunch on board before arrival.

After the tour, enjoy free time to explore, walk the city walls or take the cable car to Mount Srđ. A return coach transfer is scheduled for the evening, although guests may return to the ship independently.
