Adriatic Coastal Cruise

Arrive in Dubrovnik and transfer to your Travelmarvel Coastal Cruising ship, the Princess Eleganza. Unpack and settle into your cabin, ready for your exploration of the Adriatic Coast.

Later, enjoy a Captain's Welcome Dinner and meet your fellow travellers and Cruise Director. Stay Seven Nights: aboard the MV Princess Eleganza (D)

Spend the morning on a guided walk through the unrivalled ‘Pearl of the Adriatic', the medieval Old Town of Dubrovnik. A guided tour of Dubrovnik's World Heritage-listed fortress begins at the impressive Pile Gate, which has stood guard at the entry of this unique walled city for centuries. Within the ancient fortifications, wander through narrow limestone alleys and marble paved boulevards to see the grand Gothic-Renaissance Rector's Palace, the Dominican and Franciscan Monasteries, and the inspiring Sponza Palace before returning to your ship for lunch.

Later, set sail for Korcula where you will join a guided tour. Explore the city's maze of cobblestone, medieval streets and elegant squares flanked by palaces of the old nobility. This Old Town may not be as well-known as Dubrovnik, but it is every bit as rewarding for those lucky enough to visit. With the evening at leisure, enjoy the chance to dine in one of the local restaurants on the waterfront esplanade that fringes Korcula's Old Town. (B/L)

Cruise to the Croatian island of Vis and disembark to explore this remote and largely untouched natural beauty during a scenic drive around the islands.

You'll then set sail for Split, one of the Adriatic's most vibrant port cities. Let your guide take you on a walking tour through the city, stopping to delve into the rich history of Diocletian's Palace. Built by the Roman Emperor Diocletian for his retirement in 305 AD, the Old Town of Split is contained within its walls, making it the only Roman palace in existence that has been continuously inhabited since Roman times.

Your ship remains in port overnight, so you may wish to explore at your leisure after dinner on board. (B/L/D)

This morning, take a walk through the remarkably well-preserved white-walled Sibenik Old Town with your guide. Return to your ship and set sail for Zadar, an ancient port city that at one stage rivalled Venice as the most influential city on the Adriatic Coast. Arrive in the early evening and join a guided tour of this historic city. Enjoy dinner ashore tonight as your ship stays moored close to an array of charming restaurants and bars, rubbing shoulders with the local anglers that today hauled in the fresh seafood you may well dine on this evening. (B/L)

Wake this morning and enjoy a relaxing sailing day to the island of Rab. This afternoon, you are free to wander the white-walled harbour foreshore.

Later, perhaps enjoy dinner at a local restaurant overlooking the vibrant port marina. (B/L)

This morning anchor at the island of Krk, where you can take a refreshing swim in the inviting Adriatic. Cruise to Opatija, where you'll enjoy your afternoon at leisure. Join your new-found friends for a special Captain's Farewell Dinner this evening aboard your ship (B/L/D)

Disembark your ship and transfer by coach to Zagreb airport for your onward flight. (B)
