Your private transfer will collect you from Split airport and take you to Cornaro Hotel, located in the heart of the city.

Day 2

Duration: 1

Accommodation: MV Futura/MV Avangard/MV Maritimo

After breakfast, join your Local Expert for a stroll through the ancient walkways of Diocletian's Palace, which now forms the historic centre of Split. Walk through labyrinthine streets to see St. Duje's, originally Diocletian's Mausoleum, and the Temple of Jupiter, which today is a baptistery, as well as the Golden Gate. Continue your venture underground to explore the cellars. Transfer to the exclusive yacht marina "Baotić", where your cruiser awaits.

Duration: 1

Accommodation: MV Futura/MV Avangard/MV Maritimo

Early this morning, depart from Split and journey along the coast. From the comfort of your cabin window or the breakfast table upstairs, enjoy views of sun-dappled islands during your leisurely start to the day. Stop for lunch in one of the secluded bays before arriving in Korčula, on the island of the same name. The locals claim the celebrated globetrotter, Marco Polo, was born here. Embark on a photography walk with Andrea, a passionate Local Expert who guides you through the herringbone maze of streets and flagstone plazas, uncovering the city’s cultural and natural treasures. Delve deeper into island life with an Optional Experience: join a guided buggy tour of the island or visit a family-run winery to sample three local varietals. In the evening, enjoy time at leisure or opt for a traditional Dalmatian dinner in a nearby village, featuring a pasta-making demonstration.

Voyage south to the Island of Mljet and join your Cruise Manager for a stroll to Veliko Jezero, the Big Lake of Mljet National Park. A gentle ferry ride brings you to the Benedictine Monastery of St. Mary, which rises out of the saline waters on its own small island. After time to explore, return to your cruise ship for a traditional Croatian lunch. Next, set sail for the mighty bastions of Dubrovnik. As the receding sun casts autumnal hues across the endless sky, drift alongside the monumental city walls and enjoy a delicious buffet dinner served on deck.
