This afternoon, arrive in Dubrovnik, famously known as the 'Pearl of the Adriatic,' and transfer to your home for the next 13 nights — the luxurious cruising yacht, MV Lady Eleganza. Designed and built in Croatia for the Adriatic Coast, it is perfect for nestling into the region's small harbours and sheltered coves.

Explore Dubrovnik's World Heritage-listed Old Town in the morning. Wander past the palaces, monasteries and churches all enclosed within the medieval city walls. Later, weigh anchor and enjoy views of the memorable setting as you sail towards Montenegro and the Bay of Kotor. Sailing into the bay, framed by sheer cliffs that hug the walled town of Kotor, is a highlight.

Relish a walking tour of Kotor’s Old Town before enjoying time at leisure. Those feeling energetic may like to climb the 1,350 steps to the top of the town’s fortifications, or alternatively, you can delve into history at the Maritime Museum.

Set sail for the Elaphiti Islands off the coast. This small cluster of islands offers a respite from the hustle and bustle of the more populated destinations along the Croatian coast. En route to Sipan, stop for a swim from the yacht's stern platform (weather permitting). Later, continue onwards to Sipan, where you’ll enjoy free time to explore before dinner.

Take in postcard-perfect island views as you stop for a swim near Mijet. Later, arrive in Korčula, the birthplace of Marco Polo. Here, stroll along medieval streets flanked by palaces and enjoy a special Signature Experience. Your yacht will dock here overnight.

Signature Experience – Traditional Moreška Performance

Witness an exclusive Moreška performance, a traditional sword dance and drama dating back centuries. A captivating tale of love and conflict, the dance depicts a battle between two kings and their armies over a captured princess.

The picturesque town of Opuzen lies upstream on the Neretva River. After lunch, travel by coach over the border to Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina. See the World Heritage-listed Stari Most (Old Bridge), which arches high above the Neretva. Learn about the history of the bridge on a walking tour, as well as Mostar's other fascinating sites. Dinner will be in a local restaurant with traditional entertainment.

This morning, your yacht will sail to Split. On arrival, board small boats for an excursion along the emerald green Cetina River. Head towards Radmanove Mlinice (Radman's Mills). The stone mill was established in 1772 to grind cereal for the people of Omis.

Take a guided tour of historic Split and its Roman-era landmarks. Travel by coach to Radošić for a Signature Experience before rejoining your yacht, which is now docked in Šibenik.

Signature Experience — Local Village Experience

At the village of Radošić, be welcomed with local brandy and doughnuts and enjoy traditional entertainment before a dinner of regional specialties. 

Today, visit the spectacular Krka National Park. Spend the morning strolling along boardwalks to view Krka's famous waterfalls. The most memorable is Skradinski Buk, which is made up of scores of separate cascades. Afterwards, the MV Lady Eleganza sails to Zadar. Located on a small peninsula, Zadar retains an impressive core of Roman ruins as well as some surprising modern touches. Your yacht will remain docked here overnight.

Relax as your yacht sails towards Lošinj island. Take a walking tour of the main town, Mali Lošinj, and admire the pastel-coloured villas along the waterfront. You also have the opportunity to experience local life and visit a buzzing cafe or tavern after your dinner on board.

This morning, Lady Eleganza charts a course for Pula. Located on the tip of the Istrian Peninsula, Pula is a treasure trove of Roman ruins. Later this afternoon, visit the remarkably preserved Arena. Built in the first century AD, it housed up to 23,000 spectators who watched deadly gladiatorial battles. The Arena is the only remaining Roman amphitheatre in existence to have all four walls entirely preserved.

Your journey continues onwards to Rovinj. On arrival, join a walking tour, which takes you to the 18th-century Venetian-style church, dedicated to the martyred saint whose sarcophagus is said to have been miraculously washed ashore here around AD 800.

After breakfast, it is time to bid a fond farewell to the MV Lady Eleganza. You will be transferred to Zagreb Airport for your onward flight.
