Itinerary
Medieval Zagreb kickstarts your mesmerising Adriatic journey south to Dubrovnik. On arrival, you'll be transferred to Opatija where your Local Host will give you a glimpse into what you can expect over the coming days. You'll have some free time to get your own taste of why Opatija, with its 'Riviera' feel and colourful history, was a favourite getaway of the Habsburgs.
Prime your sea legs this morning as you transfer to Opatija port and board the MV Aquamarin to meet your onboard team. This afternoon, you'll set sail for the "island of love". A guided tour of Rab will reveal its highlights, including its ancient walls, church bell t...
Cruise to Zadar, Croatia's oldest university town. From the 1st-century Roman forum to the 9th-century St. Donat Church, there's history around every turn. After exploring the wealth of museums, churches and palaces, you'll make your way to Zadar's Riva to see (and hear) the mesmerising Sea Organ, comprising several stairs that descend into the sea.
Arrive in Skradin and travel to Bibich winery where you'll get to sample some of the indigenous varietals produced by this boutique family-owned vineyard. Next up is a visit to Krka Waterfalls National Park, where you'll visit "Skradinski Buk", a spectacular vantage p...

Follow in the footsteps of ancient Illyrian, Greek and Roman sailors as you cruise to Metković. It's here, on the banks of the Neretva, that you'll find one of the last remaining wetland deltas in Europe. A barge ride into the groves provides the perfect opportunity t...
Set sail for Korčula, most famously the birthplace of Marco Polo. You'll discover why the locals call it "The Black Island" and see how its towering walls have shielded its capital for centuries. After a tour through the Old Town's narrow streets, you'll have time to soak up the local atmosphere in one of the many konobas, restaurants or cocktail bars.
Approaching Dubrovnik from the sea is a sight to behold. As you sail past its imposing walls, you'll get a glimpse of why George Bernard Shaw described the city as "heaven on earth". Lunch is served on deck as the ship moors in Gruz harbour. You'll be treated to a gui...
