9-day voyage from Dubrovnik to Split

After arriving at Dubrovnik Airport and transferring to the hotel, the rest of the day will be for you to relax and enjoy the city at your own pace.

Dubrovnik, known as the "Pearl of the Adriatic," is one of the most beautiful cities in the Mediterranean and has been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979. Dubrovnik means "oak forest" due to the abundance of oak trees in the area.

The city has been dominated by Byzantines, Venetians, Hungarians, Turks, and Austrians throughout its history. Dubrovnik also endured significant damage during the war with Serbia, and on December 6, 1991, it was hit by over 2000 bombs, resulting in the reconstruction of many of its buildings.

The old town is surrounded by a grand medieval wall with 16 towers, making it one of the city's major attractions.

Greca Tip: Between 1358 and 1808, Dubrovnik was known as the Republic of Ragusa.

After a delightful breakfast, you will have free time until the scheduled transfer to the port. Embarkation will begin at 2:00 PM.

You will settle into your cabin and have some free time to explore the ship. At 5:00 PM, you will prepare for a walking tour through "The Pearl of the Adriatic," visiting the most important landmarks of this walled city, including the Franciscan Monastery and its historic pharmacy.

Upon returning to the ship, you will attend a welcome reception followed by dinner on board.

Greca Tip: The Old Port of Dubrovnik or Stara Luka in Croatian has always been one of the most iconic places in the city throughout its history. During the 15th and 16th centuries, when the Republic of Ragusa held a key position in Mediterranean trade, hundreds of merchant ships docked in its port.

Early in the morning, you will enjoy the magical scenery as the ship cruises around Dubrovnik’s city walls, continuing to one of the Elaphiti Islands for a swim stop.

In the afternoon, you will continue to Slano while you enjoy lunch on board. Slano is a peaceful fishing village and your starting point for Ston, located on the Pelješac Peninsula. Once a fortified small village, Ston is famous for its oysters, and the Pelješac Peninsula is known as one of the best wine-producing regions in Croatia.

After exploring Ston, you will head to a nearby village to enjoy an authentic local oyster tasting. You will spend the night in Slano, with a delightful Captain’s dinner on board.

Greca Tip: The Pelješac Peninsula is renowned not just for its oysters but also for its vineyards. Be sure to try Dingač wine, considered one of the finest in the region.

In the morning, over breakfast, you will head north to the Island of Mljet. You will join a crew member for a walk around the famous lakes in the Mljet National Park.

Later, you will continue the navigation towards the island of Korčula, best known as the birthplace of Marco Polo. Before lunch, there is time for a stop for swimming in the blue sea. You will arrive in Korčula in the afternoon and take a guided walking tour of this charming city surrounded by walls, which is one of the best preserved medieval cities in the Mediterranean. Night in Korčula where you can enjoy a gourmet experience in multiple restaurants and bars.

Greca Tip: Korčula has a rich cultural tradition, including folk dances and music. One of the highlights is the "Moreska" sword dance, which depicts a fight between Moors and Christian knights.

The sun is just beginning to rise over the Adriatic as the boat glides silently toward a destination that, for decades, was shrouded in secrecy. Today, you are about to uncover Vis, an island that breathes history and authenticity—preserved by time and its strategic past.

For many years, Vis served as a restricted Yugoslav naval base. This very isolation has safeguarded its purest essence: narrow streets that whisper stories, landscapes untouched by mass tourism, and a way of life that recalls the Mediterranean as it once was.

In the morning, you’ll explore this hidden gem aboard military Land Rover Defenders—an experience that delivers not only adrenaline but insight. As you ride through underground tunnels and abandoned lookout posts, you’ll sense the echoes of naval battles that once shaped European history in these very waters.

By night, the boat will anchor in one of Vis’s peaceful harbors, where silence blends with the gentle sound of the sea.

Greca Tip: Don’t miss the stargazing from the deck. In Vis, with no light pollution, the stars feel closer than ever.

There are mornings that feel like the beginning of a dream, and today is one of them. As the boat glides across the calm sea, you head toward Biševo, a tiny island that guards one of the Adriatic’s most enchanting secrets: the Blue Cave. In the morning, if the weather allows, you’ll witness a miracle of nature—sunlight slipping through an underwater entrance, bathing the cave in an otherworldly blue glow. It is a fleeting spectacle, and therein lies its magic.

Later, the journey continues toward Hvar, the longest and sunniest island in the Adriatic. During the midday, a refreshing swim stop and a delicious lunch on board will prepare you for the adventures ahead.

In the afternoon, aboard robust Land Rover Defenders, you'll explore Hvar’s soul: quaint villages, a fragrant lavender farm, a scenic wine tasting, and the charming Donkey Farm, where joy and laughter are guaranteed.

In the evening, you’ll anchor in Stari Grad or another peaceful harbor on the island, your heart full and your senses awakened.

Greca Tip: Wear comfortable shoes for the farm visits—and don’t forget to ask about the story behind each donkey’s name!

There are days when the soul simply longs for peace. In the morning, the boat sets sail toward Milna, on the island of Brač, gliding across crystal-clear waters that invite you to unwind and breathe deeply. Weather permitting, you'll enjoy a refreshing swim stop in one of the island’s untouched bays, where silence is broken only by the gentle rhythm of the sea. Soon after, a delicious lunch on board will be served as the breeze softly brushes your face.

In the afternoon, you’ll arrive in Milna, still known as the most beautiful and sheltered port on Brač. This charming Dalmatian town is crowned by a Baroque church with a typical regional bell tower, standing as a beacon of local spirituality. Inside, you’ll find precious works by Venetian painters—silent witnesses to a time when art flowed freely across the Adriatic.

In the evening, the boat will anchor in Milna or another peaceful harbor on the island, where the golden light of sunset glows on red rooftops and centuries-old stone.

Greca Tip: As dusk falls, take a walk along the harbor. The local cafés serve traditional sweets that pair perfectly with a glass of Brač wine.

Greca Tip: The Riva is Split's waterfront, a lively place where locals and tourists gather to stroll, enjoy the cafes and restaurants, and admire the sea views.

In the morning, the sea calls once more. As your boat gently sails toward Trogir, you may pause for a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear waters, weather permitting, followed by a delightful lunch on board that tastes even better when shared with the horizon.

Upon arrival, a soft breeze seems to whisper stories of another time. Trogir, often called a "miniature Venice" or a "floating museum town," is a perfectly preserved medieval jewel. As you stroll through its narrow alleys on a guided orientation walk, the Venetian palaces and ancient stone walls echo centuries of history. Its entire historic center is a treasure chest, small in size but vast in legacy.

In the late afternoon, you’ll journey to nearby Split, where the past lives on within the walls of Diocletian’s Palace a Roman imperial residence turned vibrant city. On a guided tour, admire the Peristyle, the Temple of Jupiter, the Cathedral, and the lively seafront promenade. As night falls, the city invites you to wander, discover, and feel its rhythm.

After your evening in Split, you’ll return to the ship for a restful night in Trogir.
