ITINERARY:
Check-in to your cabin from 17.00hrs. If you arrive early you can leave your bags on the ship and explore Dubrovnik until dinner.

Day 1: DUBROVNIK - Embarkation (D)
Official check-in is from 5pm onwards but you can arrive to the boat earlier, leave your bags onboard and choose from the many activities happening in Dubrovnik that day. Dinner is served onboard at 6.30pm, when you will also be given a welcome speech and be introduced to everybody else onboard. The rest of the evening is yours to enjoy, around Gruz Harbour, or in the Old City. Overnight onboard in Dubrovnik, Gruz Harbour.
# Included: Dinner onboard (around 6.30pm)
Optional: There are so many things to do in this city. We recommend:
(1) Taking a cable car ride up to Mount Srd for the most incredible view imaginable.
(2) Dubrovnik is also the setting for the capital city of Westeros, Kings Landing, in Game of Thrones. If you are a fan, why not take a walking tour of the locations of the most famous scenes in the ultra-popular show and get an overview of the history of Dubrovnik at the same time?
(3) Take a shuttle boat over to Lokrum Island from the Old City.

Day 2: to KORCULA TOWN (B,L)
It's goodbye to Dubrovnik and hello to more incredible scenery as we head to Korcula Island, which is said to be the birthplace of Marco Polo. The Old City of Korcula (with the same name as the island) is another gem which hosts a small street party in the evening at the Deja Vu Bar! Overnight onboard in Korcula Town.
# Included: Breakfast and lunch onboard
# Optional: Wine-tasting tour, including wine tasting and snacks.

Day 3: to HVAR ISLAND (B,L)
Hvar Island is rated as one of the highlights of the trip and it’s not hard to see why. It boasts several gorgeous towns such as Jelsa (where we often dock), Stari Grad and Hvar Town itself. We arrive into Jelsa, Stari Grad or Hvar Town (if we are lucky enough to get a docking space there) after lunch, and if you fancy visiting other towns, you can easily take a bus or taxi (not included) as the town are only around 15-25 mins from each other. Hvar town’s nightlife is legendary and nothing beats catching the sunset at Hula Hula bar, then taking the organised shuttle boat over to Carpe Diem – the famous “club on an island”. Stari Grad’s old town is a delight to explore, with several cosy wine-bars to be found on its winding streets. Jelsa has a wonderful harbour and promenade and features a famous park that often has live, outdoor music performances and festivals. You are spolit for choice! Overnight onboard on Hvar Island.
# Included: Breakfast and lunch onboard
# IMPORTANT: Hvar Town's small port is often overcrowded in peak months (end of Jun to end of Aug) and the port authority may order the boat to dock elsewhere, such as Jelsa or Stari Grad, about 25-35 mins by bus from Hvar Town. The Cruise Manager will help you plan any necessary travel arrangements.

Day 4: to Pakleni Islands or Brac, then to SPLIT (B,L)
Our final, full day starts with a swim stop in the morning at one of the many Pakleni Islands near Hvar and we then continue past Brac Island over to the largest city on the Dalmatian coast, Split. In the afternoon, you have enough time to take in some of the inspiring sights of this city, including Diocletian's Palace, Mestrovic's "Gregory of Nin" statue and Bacvice Beach. If you fancy something more adventurous then we can also transfer you to/from Omis for a rafting excursion on the River Cetina. Overnight onboard in Split.
# Included: Breakfast and lunch onboard
# Optional: River Rafting in Omis

Day 5: SPLIT - Disembarkation (B)
After breakfast (7-8am) it is time to say goodbye to your shipmates and crew. Check-out is by 9am although you can leave earlier if you need to (for early flights, buses etc). The adventure does not need to stop here though as there is the option of an excursion to see the waterfalls of Krka National Park.
# Included: Breakfast onboard

B=Breakfast, L=Lunch, D=Dinner
