What's this trip about?

    Discover the Dalmatian Coast and Islands on a luxury yacht—led by local experts in Dubrovnik, Hvar, Bol and beyond. This exclusive Adriatic cruise begins in the ancient Old Town of Split before embarking on a VIP curated tour of the Croatian isles. From the birthplace of Marco Polo on Korčula, this 9-day tour charts the island of Mljet's Big Lake National Park before the marble streets, terracotta rooftops and towering fortifications of ancient Dubrovnik—all packed within its world famous walls. Sail onwards past the vineyards of the Pelješac Peninsula before a pause at Kuna to feast on farm to table Croatian delicacies, sourced from the finest local produce. The cruise concludes with the lavender-infused apothecaries of Hvar and a once in a lifetime chance to swim at Brač's Golden Cape.
