Itinerary
You will be transferred from Split airport to the Trogir port. Embarkation begins at 14:00h. Get settled in your cabin before going on a short orientation walk through this medieval city. Trogir is sometimes referred to as “miniature Venice” or a “mini-Dubrovnik” because of its ancient walls, or a “floating museum town” - as it has a masterful architecture including some stunning Venetian palaces. After returning to the ship enjoy a Welcome reception followed by dinner this evening.
Meal Plan: Only Dinner
In the morning, we will head towards Split where you will join a guided tour of Split with and visit the seafront promenade and Roman Emperor Diocletian’s Palace. The historical center of the city is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. You will see the remnants of Split’s Roman heritage, its Renaissance and Gothic structures, Jupiter’s Temple, the Peristyle, and the Cathedral. After visiting Split, we head towards Milna on the Island of Brač with a swim stop, weather permitting, in one of pristine bays, time to relax and lunch on board. After lunch we arrive in Milna still known as the most beautiful and most protected port on Brač. Explore this Dalmatian town dominated by a Baroque church with a typical Dalmatian bell tower. The interior of the church is rich in valuable paintings by Venetian painters. Overnight in the town of Milna or one of the harbors on the island of Brač. Note: Due to the limited capacity of the Split harbour (reconstructions related) transfer by bus may be organized to and from Split town for the sightseeing tour.
Note: Due to limited capacity at Milna Harbour (during peak season), the port of call may be substituted with one of the nearby harbours.
Meal Plan: Breakfast and Lunch
In the morning, we set sail toward the island of Hvar. Along the way, we take a short break for swimming, cooling off, and relaxing – weather permitting. Lunch is served on board before continuing our journey to Hvar. Upon arrival in the early afternoon, disembark and join a tour on Hvar by Land Rover Defenders. We will drive through picturesque villages and visit Lavander Farm, stop for wine tasting and finish with Donkey Farm where we will have a lot of fun. Overnight in Stari Grad. Note: Due to limited capacity at Stari Grad Harbour (during peak season), the port of call may be substituted with one of the nearby harbours.
Meal Plan: Breakfast and Lunch
Leaving Island Hvar in the morning and sail towards Biševo island to visit the Blue Cave, a magnificent natural phenomenon on the islet Biševo just in front of the town of Komiža. The possibility of our visit will depend on weather conditions; however, you will be notified of this on time. Afterwards continue to Vis, once a strategic naval Yugoslav base and restricted to the public. Due to this isolation, Vis has a special charm – “the Mediterranean as it once was” making it interesting to visit. Since the independence of Croatia, the island began opening slowly to the outside world. Some of Europe's largest and greatest naval battles have taken place in the waters around Vis. Vis Island holds many historic secrets and you can explore Vis history on your own by military Land Rover Defenders. Overnight in one of the harbors on the island of Vis.
Note: Due to limited capacity at Vis Harbour (during peak season), the port of call may be substituted with one of the nearby harbours.

Continue towards Korčula, the most preserved medieval town, thought to be the birthplace of the famous explorer Marco Polo. We will spend the night here. Take a walking tour of Korčula which takes you through its narrow, cobbled streets full of history. Evening is free to explore the town on your own.
