Tour Overview
The ideal way to experience the stunning Dalmatian coastline - explore Croatia’s picturesque islands and historic coastal towns on an exclusively chartered cruise ship. This tour works it's way down the coast from Split to Dubrovnik, stopping on the way at Korcula, with its fortified Old Town known as "mini-Dubrovnik".
