Early morning departure towards the island of Mljet. Swim stop on Peljesac, on the way towards Mljet. Part of Mljet island is a national park (entrance fee to be paid on the spot).

Walk or hire a bike to explore these stunning lakes. Overnight in port Polaca or Pomena. (B, L)

After breakfast depart for Dubrovnik, the most famous town in Croatia and, for many, the highlight of this cruise. The Irish writer George Bernard Shaw called Dubrovnik “heaven on earth” and on the way, admire a beautiful stretch of coast. After arrival, explore on your own or join a guided city (included on Premium Superior and Premium), followed by an optional cable car ride up to the Srd mountain for spectacular views of the old town. Don’t miss STRADUN – both a street and a square in the old town and walk at least part of the 1.940 m long city walls which have protected Dubrovnik during earthquakes and attacks! Check-out in Dubrovnik after lunch, by 2pm. (B, L)
