Small Group Tour
Sailing the islands of Croatia is fast becoming as critical as seeing the Eiffel Tower. From the clubs of Dubrovnik Old Town to the postcard town of Split with so many white beaches and ocean time in between. This trip even goes reverse if you'd rather start from Split. Wild Bay, anyone?

Itinerary

Day 1: Arrive Dubrovnik

The sun is shining, the sea is glistening & 8-days of Croatian goodness sit ahead of us. Settle into our shiny sail boat & use any remaining daylight to explore the UNESCO World Heritage site of Dubrovnik. Tonight we'll slip into holiday mode with a dinner onboard our boat.

Day 2: Dubrovnik to Korčula

Rise and shine, we're raising anchor! Take in the beauty of Dubrovnik one last time. We've no doubt got a bunch of new friends on hand already, and it's time to set sail. Don't fret, there will be plenty of swim stops as we make our way to our next destination. Cruis...

Day 3: Korčula to Hvar

This morning we wave goodbye to Korcula, sailing into a fresh day of sunshine in search of our next island. A celeb hang out, a museum of super-yachts, a nightclub hub - Hvar is nothing short of wonderful. We will take an orientation of the town where we will get you...

Day 4: Hvar to Wild Bay

Relax and recap on the evening over a late breakfast before we drift off to the next destination calling our name. Out of the city vibes we truly set sail today, for some serious island vibes. The sound of 'Wild' Bay might scare you after what may have been a night of debauchery. But rest assured Wild Bay is exactly what you need - turquoise waters & tranquil vibes aplenty.

Day 5: Wild Bay to Bol

So long oasis of dreams, we have another stunning port to throw down anchor at. Ahoy! We will be stopping for plenty of swim stops and throwing the anchor down, sounds good to us sailor types. Little bays of pebbles & a quaint seaside town wait for us in the sout...

Day 6: Bol to Makarska

Another easy like Sunday morning start to our day is in order after the pirate party. Lounge around enjoying breakfast and sunshine as we depart Bol and head for Makarska, and yes, more swim stops await today. The afternoon is yours to run off and explore from our do...

Day 7: Makarska to Split

Today we make our way out of Makarska - a fun-filled finale in Split coming right up! Soak up the Roman heritage of the 220 buildings and sprawling cathedral that make up the Diocletian’s Palace before sitting by the Mediterranean to map out our last night on tour. Best go out with a bang!

Day 8: Depart Split

There you have it, the astonishing beauty of Croatia and its cluster of islands. You probably always imagined you'd be blown away by it, but the new squad of life-long pals will be the real surprise. Round Two: Turkey & Greek Island Odyssey?

We’re firm believers that life’s greatest experiences are made better by the people you share them with. That’s why Contiki invented group travel for young people in 1962 and we’ve spent the past 53 years perfecting it. You’ll explore amazing destinations with a group of 18-35 year olds from around the world who share your passion for adventure, good times and creating memories that define what it is to be young, wild and free.

No two travellers are the same and we know that, which is why we offer eight unique ways to explore the world. We have a number of options to choose from to create a vacation that’s perfect for you, from budget to accommodation style.

We're all about exploring the world with like-minded people, which is why we only run trips for 18-35 year olds, to celebrate being young, spirited and curious. You can expect to join a group of 18-53 awesome people from around the world on our Europe, Australia, North America and New Zealand trips, and in Asia and Latin America it's all about small group adventures with up to 25 travellers. Don't worry if you're not traveling as a couple or with a friend from home – though there are plenty of pairs, 50% of our travellers set off solo, meaning you'll have a ton of opportunities to make new friends.

With over 270 trips around the world and plenty of departure dates to work into your schedule, you'll never be short of options on where to go for your next great adventure.

About the company:
Contiki are the world leaders in social youth travel. We’ve been providing amazing travel experiences for young travellers, from 18-35 years old, since 1962. Imagine how good you would be at something if you had been doing it for more than 60 years?

Everything about Contiki is deeply rooted in our core values ‘Make Every Moment Count’ and ‘We’re about people’. We don’t just talk the talk, we walk the walk and live by our brand philosophy of ‘Travel.Together.’ which means to travel with one another, the destinations we visit, the cultures we enjoy and the environment, too.
