Dubrovnik to Dubrovnik
Transfer from Dubrovnik airport to Dubrovnik harbour for check in from 14.00h onwards. After settling in, transfer to the city gates for a guided tour. The special charm of this ancient town are the buildings that have remained from the time of the old Dubrovnik Republic. Many of the monuments belong to the modest Renaissance architecture with some traces of Gothic style.
Take the cable car from the Old Town to Srđ mountain to enjoy scenic views of the mighty ramparts and of the Elaphiti Islands. Return transfer to the ship for a welcome dinner & cocktail reception. Overnight in Dubrovnik.
Departure towards Korčula island best known as the birthplace of Marco Polo. While wandering along the herringbone pattern on this Island one can find more legends, tales and monuments than anywhere else.

Here one can find the Renaissance cathedral with its original tower; the oldest community theatre in Europe was founded here in 1612. Hvar offers plenty of restaurants, bars and cafes that are open long into the night and is often referred to as the sunshine island. Overnight on Hvar.
Early morning cruise towards the small island Biševo to visit the Blue cave, a magnificent natural phenomenon (entrances to be paid on the spot – approx. 14 EUR). Continue to the island of Vis, once a strategic naval Yugoslav base and closed to the public for years. Due to this isolation, Vis retains a special charm – “the Mediterranean as it once was” making it really interesting to visit.
Situated on the northern side of the island, Vis has developed near the remains of ancient Issa, the first urban centre in Croatia. Enjoy the wine tasting at a local family owned winery with a long wine making tradition. Dinner on board. Overnight in the port of Vis.

Then on to Ston, small village, once fortified, famous for its oysters.
After exploring the town’s vast medieval ramparts, heading towards Europe's oldest saltworks known as the trademark of Ston, a short coastal walk leads us to an oyster farm to learn more about oysters and a special tasting of this delicacy.
