Note

Day 1 Saturday: Embarkation Zadar, possible at any time after 2 PM. Meet your Cruise Director and crew over a welcome drink and snack and familiarize yourself with the rules and safety measures. Your journey begins with dinner on board and overnight stay in Zadar.
Day 2 Sunday: Zadar – Sibenik
After breakfast, you can join us for an optional guided tour of Zadar (for a fee). Your walk with our guide will take you through the 2nd century BC Roman Forum, past the pre-Romanesque Church of St. Donatus from the 9th century, and the Church of St. Anastasia. In the early afternoon, you will sail across the Zadar archipelago and discover the beauties of Dalmatia. Arrival in the late afternoon and overnight stay in the port of Sibenik. An optional guided tour (for a fee) will take you through Šibenik with the city's Cathedral of St. James. Experience the stone alleys and good cuisine on your own in the evening. Overnight in Šibenik.
Day 3 Monday: Sibenik – Trogir – Split
Enjoy the breathtaking promenade of Šibenik as you sail down the narrow St. Anthony Channel to the open sea. Today you will sail to Split, with Trogir en route, a small island connected to the mainland. A showcase of stunning architecture based on Greek and Roman heritage. Optional guided tour (for a fee) in the early afternoon.
Our last port of the day will be Split. Explore it on your own or join our optional guided tour (for a fee) to learn more about Diocletian's Palace, once the retirement residence of the Roman emperor and now a vibrant city center. Overnight in Split.
Day 4 Tuesday: Split – Hvar
Enjoy breakfast and free time in Split or take an optional excursion to the mainland; be impressed by the dramatic cliffs behind the beautiful settlement of Omiš right at the mouth of the Cetina River. Consider exploring the Cetina River Canyon on a boat trip (for a fee). In the afternoon, we will sail to Hvar, officially the sunniest of the 1200 Croatian islands and the island with the largest UNESCO World Heritage site, so you should join our optional guided tour (for a fee). Overnight in Hvar.
Day 5 Wednesday: Hvar – Korcula
Departure from Hvar in the morning for Korcula. Korčula is one of the largest islands in the Adriatic and is known for its characteristic lush dark forests. Korčula was a Venetian fortress and is adorned with many lion statues that you can admire on the facades and gates of the city. The alleged home of the world-famous traveler Marco Polo will enchant you, whether you explore it on your own or on an optional walk (for a fee). Overnight in Korčula.
Day 6 Thursday: Korcula – Mljet – Slano
Continue to another green island, this time Mljet. The island's national park is home to two saltwater lakes connected to the sea by a narrow channel. Nature lovers will be delighted here with hiking or cycling, perhaps even kayaking to the small island in the middle of the lake, which is charming with its 12th-century St. Mary's Monastery. Alternatively, you can join our optional excursion (for a fee). Enjoy a refreshing swim before sailing back to the mainland and the small settlement of Slano, where the "Captain's Dinner" takes place and we dock for the night.
Day 7 Friday: Slano – Dubrovnik
Enjoy breakfast on board. Near Slano, the small town of Ston claims its fame for many delicacies: strong wines, old salt production, and juicy oysters and mussels. Our optional tour "Taste of Dalmatia" (for a fee) highlights all these treasures, but you can also simply relax in Slano. In the early afternoon, we set sail for Croatia's southernmost gem and the famous hotspot Dubrovnik. Take a look at its beauty as you sail under the mighty city walls, just as its enemies and allies did before. The optional guided tour (for a fee) through the old town of Dubrovnik will take you to the world-famous sights and through the same streets that have been used as filming locations for "Game of Thrones", "Star Wars", or "Robin Hood". Enjoy an evening full of romance, glamour, and glitz as you will spend the night in Dubrovnik.
Day 8 Saturday: Dubrovnik Departure
Enjoy your breakfast before leaving the ship at 9 AM.

As the ships offered are motor ships, there may be operational noise and vibrations in the cabins. Depending on the cabin's location, these may be amplified. The respective docking points are assembly points. Several ships dock next to or behind each other, so crossing over other ships may be necessary. For supply reasons, it may not be possible to turn off the generators at night, which may lead to noise and odor nuisances (e.g., from neighboring ships).
