Itinerary


Day 1: Arrive Dubrovnik, Embark Yacht

Upon arrival in Dubrovnik, be met at the airport and transfer to your yacht, the luxury cruising yacht MV Lady Eleganza. The yacht was designed and built in Croatia specifically for cruising the Adriatic Coast. Tonight, enjoy a Captain’s welcome dinner before overnighting in this magnificent town.

Day 2: Dubrovnik, Korčula

This morning in Dubrovnik set out for a guided tour of the medieval walled city. Then set sail and perhaps stop for a swim on the island of Jakljan (weather permitting). Later arrive in Korčula, Marco Polo's birthplace, where your yacht will dock overnight

Day 3: Korčula, Hvar

Set out on a walking tour of Korčula this morning, widely recognised as being the birthplace of the world explorer, Marco Polo. Later sail to Hvar, where you will take a short coach ride across the island to the stunning Old Town of Hvar for a guided walk. Start in the iconic main square, the largest piazza in Dalmatia, then see the cathedral and the Franciscan Monastery. You have the option to experience life like the locals and visit a lively cafe or tavern onshore as your yacht moors overnight.

Day 4: Hvar, Vis

Early this morning head from the coast to one of Croatia's most beautiful islands, fascinating Vis. The island was used as a military base for the Yugoslav army and only opened up to tourism in 1989. This long isolation and lack of development is the island’s main attraction, ensuring its untouched beauty. Enjoy a guided tour, followed by time at leisure to explore the island. Your ship will dock in Vis overnight.

Day 5: Šibenik, Radošić

Set sail for Šibenik this morning. On arrival, travel to the traditional village of Radošić for a Signature Experience. Your ship will dock in Šibenik overnight.

Signature Experience - Local Village Experience
In Radošić sample local brandy and home-made doughnuts on arrival, then watch as the locals perform a dance that has been passed down through generations since the 18th century. Afterwards, enjoy a cooking demonstration of how the villagers make their bread, before a tour of the village and a meal.

Day 6: Šibenik, Krka National Park, Zadar

Today head to beautiful Krka National Park. Here, explore the dramatic waterfalls, where the highlight is Skradinski Buk, a large natural pool with high waterfalls at one end and countless cascades at the other as the rushing river forces its way through a barrier of tiny islets. Take a walk along wooden jetties and bridges to admire the falls, and the unique flora and fauna. Later, sail to Zadar.

Day 7: Zadar, Pag, Rab

This morning, enjoy a guided walk through Zadar's well-preserved Old Town, Roman columns, Romanesque churches and Renaissance palaces. Continue to Pag, where you will have another chance to swim in the stunning Adriatic Sea straight off the spacious rear deck of your yacht. Continue to Rab and dock overnight, giving you a chance to explore the pleasures of the city after the busy daytime crowds have dispersed.

Day 8: Rab, Krk

In Rab, meander through the narrow old alleys of the picturesque Old Town. Then sail to the beautiful island of Krk.
Weather permitting, your yacht will drop its anchor so you can enjoy a swim straight from the deck of the yacht. Tonight, enjoy a farewell dinner.

Day 9: Opatija, Disembark Yacht, Depart Zagreb

After a final breakfast, say a fond goodbye to the MV Lady Eleganza and its crew before a transfer from Opatija to Zagreb Airport for your onward flight.
