Day 2 - Sibenik (Croatia)
The unspoiled beauty of this rugged coastline bleached by the salt and bordered by crystal clear blue sea transforms Sibenik (Croatia) into a giant aquarium.

05:00

Korkula (Croatia)
You will be enchanted by the harmony which emerges from the old town of Korcula (Croatia). The medieval architecture of white stone towers offers a stunning contrast to the orange-red roofs of the houses and limpid blue sea. The alleyways, squares and palaces are a pleasure to behold.
11:00 22:00

Day 4 -Dubrovnik (Croatia)
Dubrovnik
 (Croatia) has preserved its rich architectural heritage, and its many palaces, monuments and white stone churches are in perfect harmony. Long considered as a rival to Venice, traces of its illustrious past are to be found throughout the city, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site.

09:00

20:00

Day 6 -Hvar (Croatia)
A mild sunny climate has earned Hvar (Croatia) the epithet “Croatia’s Madeira”. The old town cradled in the bay boasts many remarkable monuments, all of which bear witness to a rich history influenced by Gothic and Renaissance art.

07:00

18:00

Day 7 - Pula (Croatia)
Pula (Croatia) invites you to a journey back in time. More than any other village in Croatia, Pula is a worthy heir to the Roman Empire. Timeless beauty and a truly exceptional architectural heritage is to be found here. More than anywhere else, the ancient ruins seem to have survived the centuries without having aged. You will discover in Pula a culture which dominated Europe for more than five centuries.

08:00

12:00

Rovinj (Croatia)
In days gone by, Rovinj (Croatia) was a peaceful fishing port on the Istria Peninsula. Today its picturesque narrow streets lead you down to a marina where fishing boats jostle comfortably alongside modern yachts.
